Dielectric Resonator Antenna on Silicon Substrate for System On-Chip Applications

This paper presents for the first time the design and performance of a novel integrated dielectric resonator antenna fabricated on a high conducting silicon substrate for system on-chip applications. A differential launcher to excite the ${rm TE}_{01delta}$ mode of the high permittivity cylindrical dielectric resonator was fabricated using the IBM SiGeHP5 process. The proposed antenna integrated on a silicon substrate of conductivity 7.41 S/m has an impedance bandwidth of 2725 MHz at 27.78 GHz, while the achieved gain and radiation efficiency are 1 dBi and 45% respectively. The design parameters were optimized employing Ansoft HFSS simulation software. Very good agreement has been observed between simulation and experimental results. The results demonstrate that integration of dielectric resonator antennas on silicon is viable, leading to the fabrication of high efficient RF circuits, ultra miniaturization of ICs and for the possible integration of active devices.

一种适用于波束扫描的宽带低剖面介质谐振器天线

近年来,为解决传统介质谐振器天线（dielectric resonator antenna, DRA）体积庞大等问题,新颖的低剖面DRA如介质贴片天线和平面介质天线被提出并迅速成为研究热点. 然而,现有的低剖面DRA设计要么平面尺寸较大（>0.5λ₀×0.5λ₀）,要么带宽较窄（<10%）,限制了它们的实际应用. 文中提出了一种具有小型化平面尺寸的宽带低剖面DRA. 本天线采用介质贴片设计,顶部为高介电常数的介质贴片,中间为低介电常数的介质基板,底部为缝隙馈电结构. 缝隙馈电结构可激励起介质贴片谐振器的基模TE₁₁₁和高次模TE₁₃₁两种工作模式,这两种模式的场分布在贴片边缘部分存在基模场强较弱而高次模场强较强的显著区别. 本设计巧妙地利用了该区域的模式场强区别,通过略微增加贴片边缘部分高度来显著影响高次模谐振频率而轻微影响基模谐振频率,从而将高次模TE₁₃₁的谐振频率迅速下拉并与基模TE₁₁₁的谐振频率靠近合并,在不增大介质贴片平面尺寸的前提条件下获得宽带工作效果. 本天线的三维尺寸为0.35λ₀×0.35λ₀×0.08λ₀ (λ₀为中心频率处的空气中波长),线极化实物案例测试结果表明该天线具有18.5%的?10 dB阻抗带宽以及7.3 dBi的最大增益. 该天线平面尺寸小,适用于具有波束扫描功能的阵列天线设计;且提出的设计理念还可进一步拓展应用于圆极化天线设计.     

Measurement of Low-Loss Dielectric Materials Using Dielectric Rod Resonator

To obtain the complex permittivity of low-loss dielectric materials at 60 GHz, a measurement method is developed. Using a dielectric rod resonator excited by a dielectric waveguide, effective conductivity of conducting plates for short circuiting the resonator is determined. The complex permittivity of the dielectric rod is determined by the resonant frequency and unloaded quality factor of the TE_0m1-mode resonator. Moreover, the complex permittivity of single crystal sapphire, polycrystalline ceramics, and cordierite has been investigated in virtue of numerical simulation. For all the measured specimens in this study, the proposed method is seen to provide much better accuracy for values.

Study on Sequential Feeding Networks for Subarrays of Circularly Polarized Elliptical Dielectric Resonator Antenna

Circularly polarized (CP) dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) subarrays have been numerically studied and experimentally verified. Elliptical CP DRA is used as the antenna element, which is excited by either a narrow slot or a probe. The elements are arranged in a 2 by 2 subarray configuration and are excited sequentially. In order to optimize the CP bandwidth, wideband feeding networks have been designed. Three different types of feeding network are studied; they are parallel feeding network, series feeding network and hybrid ring feeding network. For the CP DRA subarray with hybrid ring feeding network, the impedance matching bandwidth (S₁₁<-10 dB) and 3-dB AR bandwidth achieved are 44% and 26% respectively     

Novel temperature-stable ceramics for microwave dielectric resonators and microstrip substrates

Ceramics comprising homogeneous single-phase zirconate solid solutions of suitable composition have very low temperature coefficients of permittivity, low-frequency permittivities of 30?40 and low losses. Dielectric resonators give Q values up to 4000 and permittivities of 28?35 at 4?5 GHz. The effective permittivity measured on a microstrip ring resonator on a calcium-zirconate substrate shows the dispersion predicted theoretically; the effective permittivity increases from 17 to 23 over the frequency range 1?12 GHz and gives 28.1 as the calculated real value of the permittivity of the substrate. The measured Q value of 200 indicates negligible dielectric losses compared with the I2R losses.
