Generally microstrip patch antenna (MPA) is used in modern communication devices and day-to-day communication is done through it. Study of literature of past few year shows that, the leading work on MPA is design compact size broadband microstrip antenna, but inherently MPA have narrow bandwidth so various techniques are engaged to enhance bandwidth. This review paper demonstrates some commonly...

In this paper, a 77 GHz microstrip dipole antenna is integrated on a layered 11.4 μm SiO2 and a silicon substrate with thickness of 670 μm. The unbalanced microstrip line is balanced by using a lumped LC circuit balun to feed both of the dipole arms. To decrease the substrate loss and hence increase the antenna gain, Localized Backside Etch (LBE) module offered by IHP is utilized to etch the ar...

A single-feed low-profile and easy to fabricate circularly polarized microstrip patch antenna has been developed for GPS applications. For dual frequency operation, four slots are etched near edges of the patch and a crossed slot etched in the center for generating circular polarization. In order to reducing the frequency ratio of two frequency bands of the antenna, the patch is loaded by four ...

A NMR microprobe based on microstrip technology suitable for investigations of volume-limited samples in the low nanoliter range was designed. NMR spectra of sample quantities in the 100 pmol range can be obtained with this probe in a few seconds. The planar geometry of the probe is easily adaptable to the size and geometry requirements of the samples.

INTRODUCTION Microstrip transceiver arrays have been demonstrated to provide higher efficiency on signal excitation/reception and low mutual coupling and have become a popular RF solution to parallel MR imaging at ultrahigh fields in humans [1,2]. In most designs, the ground planes of microstrips are separated (Fig 1) to minimize their mutual coupling [1-5]. Practically, due to space limitation...

ÐWe have implemented a low-temperature electro-optic sampling system for non-invasive, nodal testing of superconducting Nb integrated circuits. With submillivolt sensitivity and a subpicosecond temporal response, this system has been used to perform nodal analysis on rapid-singlēux quantum (RSFQ) devices and superconducting microstrip interconnects. Here we demonstrate that by measuring the pro...

The multi-band microstrip antennas are realized by cutting more than one slots at an appropriate position inside the patch or by placing the open circuit stub on the edges of the patch or by using the combination of slots and stub. In this paper, an analysis to study the multi-band response in stub loaded two half U-slot cut rectangular microstrip antenna is presented. The first half U-slot in ...

In this paper, the equivalent circuit model of the slotted ground structures (SGSs) underneath the microstrip line is presented. The slotted ground structures are etched off on the ground plane to provide the stopband over the desired frequency range. The frequency response of the stopband can be determined by the dimensions of SGSs. The interaction between the SGSs can equivalent to a parallel...

this paper presents a novel microstrip low-pass filter with good performance. a complete detailed theoretical analysis for the proposed filter is given using equivalent circuit models. the proposed filter applying multiple cascaded modified radial stubs resonators provides a sharp cut off frequency response that has a 185 db/ghz roll off rate. also, u-shaped attenuators provide a wide stop-band...

The possibility of making compact stopband filters using coplanar-coupled EBG resonators in inverted microstrip gap waveguide technology is studied this work. To do this, the filtering characteristics different configurations mushroom-type elements are shown which short-circuit element placed on edge resonator’s patch. behavior structure as well its main advantages such as: low losses, self-pac...
