Design of F-band Transition from Microstrip to Ridge Gap Waveguide including Monte Carlo Assembly Tolerance Analysis

This paper describes the design and realization of a transition from a microstrip line to a ridge gap waveguide operating between 95 and 115 GHz. The study includes simulations, measurements, and a Monte Carlo analysis of the assembly tolerances. The purpose of this tolerance study is to identify the most critical misalignments that affect the circuit performance, and to provide guidelines abou...

W-band Microstrip-to-waveguide Transition Using via Fences

Abstract—The paper presents integrated probe for direct coupling to the WR-10 waveguide with the use of metal filled vias on both sides of the microstrip line. Design and optimization of this novel microstripto-waveguide transition has been performed using 3-D finite element method based software HFSS (High Frequency Structure Simulator). A back-to-back transition has been fabricated and measur...

Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) to Microstrip Transition at X-Band

Substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) is a new form of transmission line. It facilitates the realization of nonplanar (waveguide based) circuits into planar form for easy integration with other planar (microstrip) circuits and systems. This paper describes the design of an SIW to microstrip transition. The transition is broadband covering the frequency range of 8 – 12GHz. The measured in-band in...

Design Analysis of An Electromagnetic Band Gap Microstrip Antenna

Problem statemet: Wideband compact antenna is highly demandable due to the dynamic development in the wireless technology. Approach: A simple, compact EBG microstrip antenna is proposed in this study that covers a wideband of 250 GHz and the design is conformal with the 2.45 GHz ISM band (WLAN, IEEE 802.11b and g)/Bluetooth/RFID applications. Results: A 6×6 array of square unit cell formed the ...
