Substrate integrated waveguide bandpass filter for short range device application using rectangular open loop resonator

The substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) structure is the candidate for many application in microwave, terahertz and millimeter wave application. It because of SIW structure can integrate with any component in one substrate than others structure. A kind components using SIW structure is a filter component, especialy bandpass filter. This research recommended SIW bandpass filter using rectangular open loop resonator for giving more selectivity of filter. It can be implemented for short range device (SRD) application in frequency region 2.4 - 2.483 GHz. Two types of SIW bandpass filter are proposed. First, SIW bandpass filter is proposed using six rectangular open loop resonators while the second SIW bandpass filter used eight rectangular open loop resonators. The simulation results for two kinds of the recommended rectangular open loop resonators have insertion loss (S21 parameter) below 2 dB and return loss (S11 parameter) more than 10 dB. Fabrication of the recommended two kind filters was validated by Vector Network Analyzer. The measurement results for six rectangular open loop resonators have 1.32 dB for S21 parameter at 2.29 GHz while the S11 parameter more than 18 dB at 2.26 GHz – 2.32 GHz. While the measurement results has good agreement for eight rectangular open loop resonators. Its have S21 below 2.2 dB at 2.41 – 2.47 GHz and S11 16.27 dB at 2.38 GHz and 11.5 dB at 2.47 GHz

Design of compact planar monopole UWB MIMO antenna with four orthogonal elements and tapered fed configuration for wireless diversity applications

In this paper, we introduce a four-port self-isolated UWB MIMO antenna for diversity applications. First, we have developed a basic radiating element of the proposed antenna in four stages of design, where patches of geometrically different shapes were added at each stage to arrive at the final radiator form. The antenna was designed on an FR-4 substrate with a compact size of 28 x 28 x 1.6 mm(3). A tapered microstrip feeding was employed to enhance the antenna's impedance matching. An orthogonal arrangement of the four radiators was adopted to mitigate the mutual coupling between them, avoiding the use of a separate isolation structure. A prototype was built and measured with a close agreement between the experimental and simulated results. The MIMO antenna performed well in the entire frequency spectrum of 3.1-10.6 GHz, with an isolation better than 20 dB. The measured envelope correlation coefficient (ECC) was less than 0.001, the diversity gain (DG) was greater than 0.99 dB, and the total active reflection coefficient (TARC) was less than -10 dB. The performance of the proposed antenna design was compared with existing designs. The comparison showed that the proposed quad-element UWB MIMO array is compact, has good isolation and diversity performance compared to existing designs, and is well-suited for wireless diversity applications.Web of Science1119art. no. 308

High-Gain SIR Dual-Band Antenna Based on CSRR-Enhanced SIW for 2.4/5.2/5.8 GHz WLAN

This paper presents a dual-band step impedance resonator (SIR) antenna based on metamaterial-inspired periodic structure of coupled complementary split-ring resonators substrate-integrated waveguide (CSRR-SIW). The antenna supports wireless local area networks (WLAN) bands at 2.4/5.2/5.8 GHz. The CSRRs and two branches of the SIR element are etched on the top and bottom metal surfaces of the substrate. The SIR element produces a fundamental frequency f1 at 2.4 GHz and a second harmonic frequency fs2 at 5.7 GHz. Meanwhile, the CSRRs produces a resonant frequency at high-frequency band around 5.2 GHz, which can be combined with the second harmonic frequency fs2 at 5.7 GHz. The high-frequency bandwidth can then be broadened. The simulated and measured results show that the dual operation bands with bandwidths of 16% from 2.25 GHz to 2.64 GHz and 18.2% from 5 GHz to 6 GHz for |S11| < −10 dB are achieved. Meanwhile, the proposed antenna has peak gains ranging from 6.5 dBi to 7 dBi and from 7 dBi to 7.7 dBi in the lower and upper bands, respectively. Compared with many previously reported dual-band antenna designs, the proposed antenna achieves comparable bandwidth performance and larger gain per unit area with a relatively smaller size. Moreover, the simple structure renders the proposed antenna has the advantage of easy-processable and cost-effective implementation
