본 논문에서는 N개의 평행 결합선로를 이용한 3 dB 결합기를 해석하였으며, 유도된 식에 의하여 최소의 결합선로 수와 크기로 설계하였다. 기존의 Spectral Domain상에서 N단 평행 결합선로의 4N-port의 산란행렬로부터 port reduction 방법을 사용하여 4-port 산란 행렬을 유도하였으며, 유도된 결과의 타당성을 검증하기 위하여 실제 제작하고 측정하였다. 제작된 결합기는 loose coupling의 평행 결합 선로를 이용하기 때문에 Lange Coupler 와 같은 높은 임피던스와 Tight coupling을 구현할 필요가 없으며, wire bonding포 용이하다. 최소의 단수로 구현하기 위해 높은 유전율과 두꺼운 기판을 사용하여 2단으로 3 dB 구현이 가능함을 제시하였다. 제작결과 3.6 GHz에서 5.5 GHz로 대략 42 %(0.5 dB unbalance) 정도의 광대역 특성을 가지고 위상차도 1$^{\circ}$내외의 결합기를 구현할 수 있었고 격리도 특성 또한 대역 내에서 15 dB 내외의 특성을 보였다.

마이크로스트립 미앤더(meander) 선로를 해석하고 실험하여 저역통과 특성을 고찰하였다. 본 해석방법의 요체는 선로간 상호결합에 관한 해석적인 관계식에 밴드(bend)의 등가모델을 추가한 것이며 이의 수치계산은 빠르고 결합선로의 수에 제한을 받지 않느다. 4중 결합 미앤더 선로에 대한 해석 및 실험 결과들을 제시했으며, 이들이 잘 일치하고 있음을 보였다.

초고주파 회로에서 광범위하게 이용되는 평행 결합 마이크로스트립 대역통과필터는 좁은 대역폭 과 2차 스프리어스 통과대역으로 필터의 응용을 제한한다. 이와 같은 문제를 해결하기 위해서 복합 유전체기판상에 비대칭 결합 마이크로스트립 선로를 이용하는 방법을 제시하였다. closed-form해석방법을 이용하여 복합 유전체기판상에 비대칭 결합 마이크로스트립 선로를 해석하고 중심주파수 9GHz 에서 정규화 대역폭 $33\%$을 갖는 필터를 제작하였다. 단층기판을 갖는 필터와 비교하면 복합 유전체기판을 이용한 필터는 스프리어스 통과대역이 약 20dB 이상 개선됨을 보였다

A de-embedding method for multiport networks, especially for coupled odd interconnection lines, is presented in this paper. This method does not require a conversion from S-parameters to T-parameters, which is widely used in the de-embedding technique of multiport networks based on cascaded simple two-port relations, whereas here, we apply an operation to the S-matrix to generate all the uncoupled and coupled coefficients. The derivation of the method is based on the relations of incident and reflected waves between the input of the entire network and the input of the intrinsic device under test (DUT). The characteristics of the intrinsic DUT are eventually achieved and expressed as a function of the S-parameters of the whole network, which are easily obtained. The derived coefficients constitute ABCD-parameters for a convenient implementation of the method into cascaded multiport networks. A validation was performed based on a spice-like circuit simulator, and this verified the proposed method for both uncoupled and coupled cases.

The design of a new compact band-pass filter is proposed, which is based on the microstrip composite right- and left-handed transmission- line (CRLH-TL) structure. Particularly, the interdigital coupled (IDC) lines of the CRLH geometry are proposed to be parted by inserting open stubs to meet the specifications on the passband. In addition, there is another pair of stubs to complete the design in a limited space. These are considered in the TL-based analysis and the design parameters are calculated by genetic algorithm optimization. The measurement is shown to be acceptable and agreeable with the circuit and electromagnetic field simulations. In addition, the zerothorder resonance (ZOR) phenomenon is verified.

A novel miniaturized CMOS C-Band bandpass filter based on diagonally end-shorted coupled lines and interdigital capacitors is proposed. The utilized coupled lines structure reduced the configuration in size, as small as a few degrees. Moreover, the characteristic of interdigital capacitor, relatively high Q and good capacitance tolerance, accounts for the satisfied performance of this new filter. A two-stage bandpass filter was designed and fabricated with chip surface area only $1.02{\times}1.4\;mm^2$.

This paper describes a concrete method for computing characteristic impedances and effective dielectric constants of the microstrip coupled lines without and with a dielectric overlay. The frequency-independent spectral domain method is used for the analysis of these lines. This method is a powerful, accurate, and numerically efficient approach for planar transmission line structure. For designing the optimal directional coupler, the velocities of even and odd mode must be equal but velocities of these two modes are different in the conventional coupled line which is inhomogeneous. The results show that these two velocities can be almost same according to variations of structural and material parameters in terms of the overlay(superstrate).

A new wideband bandstop filter(BSF) with a sharp roll-off characteristic is introduced in a stripline structure in this paper. The BSF consists of two sections: the first is two capacitively coupled $\lambda/4$ short-circuited lines with opposite ground positions, while the second is a capacitively coupled $\lambda/4$ short-circuited line. The BSF provides three transmission zeros within the stopband and better than 22 dB rejection over the whole wireless local area network (WLAN) band from 5.15 to 5.825 GHz. The BSF, cascaded to an U.S. ultra-wideband(UWB: 3.1~10.6 GHz) band-pass filter(BPF), is simulated with HFSS and realized with low-temperature co-fired ceramic(LTCC) green tape with a dielectric constant of 7.8. The measurement results agree well with the HFSS simulation results. The size of the UWB BPF including the BSF is $3{\times}6.3\times0.45\;mm^3$.

This paper proposes a dual-band bandpass filter using stepped-impedance resonators (SIRs) with parallel coupled structures. The proposed filter adopts U-shaped SIRs with parallel coupled lines (PCLs) that have interdigital and comb-line shorted ends. The central PCLs build an upper passband and a transmission zero, and the two U-shaped SIRs build a lower passband. Four resonators and coupling structures are theoretically analyzed to derive its scattering parameters. A novel dual-band bandpass filter is designed and fabricated using the induced scattering characteristics. The measured results show that the fabricated dual-band bandpass filter has an insertion loss of less than 1.02 dB in the lower band of 2.45 GHz and of 3.01 dB in the upper band of 3.42 GHz, and a band-to-band isolation of more than 40 dB, from 3.14 to 3.2 GHz.

본 논문에서는 준정적 해석방법을 사용하여 다층 구조에서 유한한 도체 두께를 갖는 비대칭결합 마이크로스트립(ACM: Asymmetric Couple Microstrip) 선로의 특성을 연구하였다. 준정적 해석방법으로서 모드정합법을 이용하였으며, ACM 선로의 특성 임피던스와 유효 유전율 상수가 도체 두께의 함수로 나타나는 결과를 얻었다. 수치해석 결과를 통해서 단층 및 다층구조에서 도체 두께의 변화로 인하여 ACM 선로의 전파특성이 변화되는 것으로 나타났다.
