Abstract

In this paper, small-size high-power single pole double throw(SPDT) switch with defected pound structure(DGS) is presented for wireless broadband internet application. To reduce the circuit size using slow-wave characteristic, the DGS is applied to ${\lambda}/4$ transmission line of the switch and the measured results are compared with them of conventional switch. To secure high degree of isolation, the switch with the DGS is composed of shunt-connected PIN diodes and shows insertion loss of 0.8 dB and isolation more than 50 dB at 2.3 GHz. The size of the switch is reduced about $50\%$ only with the DGS patterns while it has very similar performance to the conventional shunt-type switch.

본 논문에서는 결함접지구조(Defected Ground Structure: DGS)의 전파 지연 특성을 이용하여 소형으로 구현한 휴대 인터넷용 고전력 Single Pole Double Throw(SPDT) 스위치의 특성이 제공되며 1/4 파장 전송선을 이용하여 제작된 일반적인 방식의 스위치와 그 특성이 비교된다. DGS를 활용하여 제작된 스위치는 높은 격리도를 확보하기 위해 병렬구조의 다이오드를 사용하여 구성되었으며 2.3 GHz에서 0.8 dB의 삽입 손실과 50 dB 이상의 격리도 특성을 보였고 50 W 이상의 전력을 다룰 수 있었다. DGS를 활용한 스위치는 기존의 전송선 방식의 스위치와 거의 동일한 스위칭 특성을 보이면서도 $50\%$ 가까운 회로의 크기 감소를 달성할 수 있었다.
