This paper presents the design analysis of five vertical shielded microstrip lines. The vertical microstrip transition solves the problem of discontinuity between two microstrip lines in different layers of microwave circuit. The main objective of this paper is to compute the capacitance and other relevant parameters like potential distributions of five shielded vertical microstrip line by usin...

The frequency-dependent characteristics of microstrip planar circuits have been previously analyzed using several full-wave approaches. All those methods directly give characteristic of the circuits frequency by frequency. Computation time becomes important if these planar circuits have to be studied over a very large bandwidth. The transmission line matrix (TLM) method presented in this paper ...

In this paper a new design of a broadband microwave power limiter is presented and validated into simulation by using ADS software (Advanced Design System) from Agilent technologies. The final circuit is built on microstrip lines by using identical Zero Bias Schottky diodes. The power limiter is designed by Associating 3 stages Schottky diodes. The obtained simulation results permit to validate...

In the RF(Radio Frequency) front-end of Beidou navigation system, the high precision filter which filtering some noise of receiving signal plays an important role for the whole system. The designed Filter in this paper is based on the theory foundation of parallel coupled microstrip line band-pass filter which combine the designing method of the traditional filter with microwave circuit simulat...

This paper represents a novel second harmonic power combining oscillator using mutually synchronized Gunn diodes embedded on slot line resonators. A both-sided MIC technology is adopted in the oscillator. The oscillator consists of Gunn diodes, slot line resonators and microstrip lines. By embedding Gunn diodes on slot line resonators, desired harmonic RF signal can be generated very easily. Th...

⎯ This paper is dedicated to simulate a rectangular patch antenna by using the software HFSS. Microstrip or patch antennas are becoming increasingly useful because they can be printed directly onto a circuit board. Microstrip antennas are becoming very widespread within the mobile phone market. Patch antennas are low cost, have a low profile and are easily fabricated.

AbstructThe equivalent circuit and the scattering parameters of the orthogonal microstrip crossover discontinuity are determined by assuming that the conducting strips are embedded in a multilayered substrate which may contain both anisotropic dielectrics and materials with a nonnegligible conductivity. The equivalent circuit of the crossover is obtained in terms of the complex excess charge de...

Microstrip antennas and arrays have been widely used in military and commercial applications because of their ease of fabrication, low profile and low cost. In any microstrip array antenna, design of the feed network is always the most challenging task for which many different methods have been proposed. One method is to distribute the power to individual array elements by a coplanar microstrip...
