In this paper, a novel W-band substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) power combiner/divider is analyzed theoretically and demonstrated experimentally/numerically, based on the antipodal fin-line SIW-rectangular waveguide (SIW-RW) transition and longitudinal slot coupling techniques. This antipodal fin-line SIW-RW transition can work at the frequency band of 86.4GHz– 106.1GHz with return loss larg...

Wilkinson Power Dividers/Combiners The in-phase power combiners and dividers are important components of the RF and microwave transmitters when it is necessary to deliver a high level of the output power to antenna, especially in phased-array systems. In this case, it is also required to provide a high degree of isolation between output ports over some frequency range for identical in-phase sig...

Recognition and classification of different power quality events is of great importance in power systems which should be done on line. For this purpose, different methods are presented which each has advantages and disadvantages. In this paper, recognition way is presented for power quality disturbances such as sag, swell, outage, surge and normal based on fuzzy systems. In this method, voltage...

Starpoint combiners are most often used for simpler combining applications. In theory an infinite number of frequencies can be starpointed, however in application it is generally limited to a maximum of five or six channels with the bulk of the combiners of this type being two and three channel. The luxury of an inexpensive system with fairly conservative size considerations is one of the highl...

Millimeter wave (mmWave) communications have been considered as a key technology for next generation cellular systems and Wi-Fi networks because of its advances in providing orders-of-magnitude wider bandwidth than current wireless networks. Economical and energy-efficient analog/digial hybrid precoding and combining transceivers have been often proposed for mmWave massive multiple-input multip...

We demonstrate an efficient coherent holographic beam combiner (CHBC) that uses angle multiplexing of gratings in a thick polymeric substrate. Our experimental results compare well with the theoretical model based on the coupled-wave theory of multiwave mixing in a passive medium. A CHBC of this type may prove useful in producing a high-power laser by combining amplified beams produced by split...

This paper presents a new CMOS buffer circuit topology for radiofrequency (RF) applications based on a fully-differential voltage-combiner circuit, capable of operating at low-voltage. The proposed circuit uses a combination of common-source (CS) and common-drain (CD) devices. The simulation results show good levels of linearity and bandwidth. To improve total harmonic distortion (THD) a source...
