    The gain characteristics of a dielectric resonator loaded coaxial probe fed circular waveguide antenna (DRLWA) with overlaying parasitic discs have been investigated experimentally. Results indicate that, when properly spaced, the overlays can enhance the gain by more than 6 dB. This record was migrated from the OpenDepot repository service in June, 2017 before shutting down

    A Compact Analytical Design of Dual-Loop 18 GHz Frequency Synthesizer to Enhance Signal Reliability in Digital Millimeter Radio Link System

    Get PDF
    In this paper a high resolution dual-loop 17.7�19.7 GHz frequency synthesizer is presented which is compatible with ITU-R (F.595-6) standards. The investigations of phase noise and spur frequency contents are discussed in detail. The simulated and measured phase noise and spur frequency contents are similar to one another. Phase noise of �81 dBc/Hz in 17.7 GHz at 10 KHz offset frequency is measured by (HP8560) series Spectrum analyzer and it matches with predicted measurements.

    The article presents information on designing a low-noise frequency synthesizer for achieving low-phase-noise outputs past 8 GHz for digital microwave radios (DMRs). These synthesizers can be used with the DMRs, depending on advanced digital modulation such as quadrature-amplitude-modulation (QAM) and quadrature-phase-shift-keying (QPSK) formats.

    Multifrequency Wilkinson power divider using microstrip nonuniform transmission lines

    Get PDF
    A new idea is proposed to modify the conventional Wilkinson power dividers to operate at two or several desired frequencies. The proposed structure contains two Microstrip Nonuniform Transmission Lines (MNTLs) instead of two uniform ones with nearly the same length at the minimum frequency. The strip width of MNTLs is considered variable and is written as a truncated Fourier series. Three nonuniform power dividers are designed and one of them operating at frequencies 1.0, 2.8, and 4.5 GHz is fabricated and measured. The measured results of the fabricated diplexer have a good agreement with the theoretical results. This record was migrated from the OpenDepot repository service in June, 2017 before shutting down

    Modal analysis of dielectric loaded coaxial probe fed circular waveguide radiator

    Get PDF
    An almost rigorous procedure for analyzing dielectric resonator antennas in cylindrical enclosures is presented. The resonant frequency and radiation pattern of a circular waveguide radiator have been analyzed by the method presented. The primary consideration in this special design has been the bandwidth. Experimental results and theoretical predictions for two cases (∈=4,12) are shown. As is evident from this comparison, the method has a reasonable accuracy. In both cases, a piecewise sinusoidal distribution for the probe current has been assumed. In general a limited number of modes in both inhomogeneous and homogeneous regions provides sufficiently accurate results for many practical cases.
