Abstract

In this paper, a 2 GHz tapered shape of multiport power divider/combiner modified from the model published by [10] and adopted PBG(Photonic Band Gap) structure is proposed. Parameters determining electrical property of the circuit structure have been analyzed by HFSS simulation. For input matching, balance of output signals and phase linearity at each output port, one circular hole has been etched out on the circuit surface. 1:2 and 1:3 power dividers/combiners designed by this study have been compared with the same circuits designed by the method of [10] in terms of S-parameters. As a result, it has been found that tile modified structure and PBG of power divider/combiner have improved return loss more than 20 dB and another 18 dB. respectively, at 2 GHz.

본 논문에서는 2 GHz 대역에서 하나의 입력과 다수의 출력을 가지는 [10]에서 제시 한 평면 Taper 혈의 전력 분배/결합기의 수정한 구조와 접지평면에 PBG(Photonic Band Cap) 구조를 적용한 형태의 전력 분배/결합 회로를 제안한다. 제안하는 구조의 전기적 특성을 걱정하는 파라메터들을 HFSS 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 분석하였다. 입력 정한 그리고 각 출력 판에서 출력 신호의 균형과 위상의 선형성을 위해 회로의 중앙에 하나의 원형 모양을 에칭 제거하였다. 또 본 논문에서 제안한 구조의 1:2와 1:3 전력 분배 / 결합기와 [10]의 구조와 5-Parameter를 비교ㆍ분석하였다. 결과적으로 본 연구에서 제시하는 수정된 형태를 적용할 경우 기존의 전력 분배/결합기의 반사손실 특성이 2 GHz에서 20 dB 이상 개선되었고. 이에 추가하여 PBG 구조를 적용하면 또 18 dB 이상 개선된 특성을 보였다. 대역폭 또한 증가되는 것을 확인하였다.
