The development of numerical techniques now permits us to analyze complex structures such as dielectric resonator filters and planar passive elements for coplanar monolithic microwave integrated circuits. In this paper, we describe a novel method for designing dielectric resonator filters. Then a Chebychev band pass filter is designed by coaxially placing high-Q TM01Q dielectric resonators ...

To achieve dual frequency operation for wireless body area network (WBAN) applications, a hybrid dual-band dielectric resonator antenna with serpentine slot fed by a microstrip line is proposed. The proposed antenna structure consists of cylindrical dielectric resonator and serpentine slot resonator. The serpentine slot is etched on the ground plane of the dielectric resonator antenna (DRA).

In this paper, a novel approach has been suggested to obtain an improved spurious-free window for dielectric resonator in microwave integrated circuit environment. In microwave integrated circuit environment, the dielectric resonator placed on a thin dielectric substrate gets located asymmetrically with respect to its shielding enclosure. A reduced separation in frequencies (mode separation) is...

Objective of this study is to enhance radius of curvature of return loss, input impedance & explore SWR and radiation pattern. Hollow CDRA has been used instead of single-element CDRA to achieve the above mentioned goal. The impedance bandwidth of a high permittivity hollow cylindrical dielectric resonator antenna excited by micro-strip lines was significantly improved by modifying the feed geo...

Abstract—Splitting a cylinder dielectric resonator into four uniform quarters generates a new dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) shape, which is named a quarter volume of cylinder dielectric resonator antenna (QVCDRA) in the paper. On the basis, a novel compact three-port dielectric resonator antenna with reconfigurable radiation pattern is presented for WLAN systems at 5.2 GHz. A −10 dB impeda...

In this paper we combined an optical mixer via photonic crystal ringresonator to propose an all optical 1 to 2 decoder.

We know that resonant wavelength of the photonic crystal ring resonator isvery sensitive upon the refractive index of dielectric rods, on the other had...

This paper reports on a dielectrically actuated and piezoresistively sensed 4.41 GHz silicon bar resonator with an electromechanical Q (Qem) of 8180. The 2-port piezoresistive transconductance measurement performed provides a promising alternative to capacitive measurement at high frequencies, where nominal and feed-through capacitance often dominates the output signal. The electromechanical f·...
