  1. 1. Gap waveguide for packaging microstrip filters & investigation of transitions from planar technologies to ridge gap waveguide

    Author : Astrid Algaba Brazalez; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; parallel plate mode; coupled line filter; microstrip circuit; packaging; Artificial magnetic conductor AMC ; perfect magnetic conductor PMC ; gap waveguide; transition.; coplanar waveguide CPW ;

    Abstract : Gap waveguide technology has proved to constitute an effective alternative for the design of microwave passive components, due to its advantages with respect to traditional planar technologies and standard waveguides. There is no requirement for conductive contact between the two different metal pieces making up a gap waveguide prototype, since one of these pieces makes use of a textured surface that eliminates any possible leakage of the field through the gap to the surface of the other metal piece above it.

    Abstract : The millimeter wave frequency range has got a lot of attention over the past few years because it contains unused frequency spectrum resources that are suitable for delivering Gbit/s end-user access in areas with high user density. Due to the limited output power that current RF active components can deliver in millimeter waves, antennas with the merits of low profile, high gain, high effciency and low cost are needed to compensate free space path loss and increase the communication distance for the emerging high data rate wireless systems.

  3. 3. Gap Waveguide Technology for Millimeter Wave Applications and Integration with Antennas

    Author : Elena Pucci; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Array Antennas.; Microstrip Lines; Micromachining; Artificial Magnetic Conductors; Millimeter Waves; Waveguide Resonators; Packaging of Microwave Components; Gap Waveguides; Losses;

    Abstract : The increasing advance of short range wireless communications requiring high data rates and the lack of available spectrum have driven researchers and industry to move towards higher frequencies, in particular to the millimeter wave range. The opening of this wide portion of free spectrum has risen a large interest in developing mm-wave communication systems for commercial applications. READ MORE

  4. 4. Characterization of losses in ridge, groove and microstrip gap waveguides

    Author : Elena Pucci; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The gap waveguide is a new technology that recently has been presented as an attractive candidate for applications at millimeter and sub millimeter waves. The waveguide is generated in the gap between a smooth upper metal plate and a ridge (or a groove) in a textured lower metal plate. READ MORE
