초록

본 논문에서는 밀리미터파 대역에서 동작하는 단일 평면 구조의 회로에 쉽게 집적화 할 수 있는 94 GHz CPW branch-line 대역통과 여파기를 설계 및 제작하였다. 본 논문은 커플링 포트들을 open load stub로 연결하고, 격리 포트를 출력노드로 취하여 branch-line 커플러를 transversal filtering section으로 사용하는 것이다. 94 GHz branch-line 대역통과 여파기를 설계하기 위해서 CPW 라이브러리를 구축하고, branch-line 커플러와 open load stub들의 임피던스 및 길이를 최적화하였다. 제작된 대역통과 여파기의 측정결과, 주파수 94 GHz를 중심으로 11.7 %의 3 dB 상대 대역폭과 2.5 dB의 삽입 손실 특성을 나타내었다. 또한, 94 GHz에서 -18.5 dB의 입출력 반사 손실 특성을 얻었다.

We report the 94 GHz CPW branch-line bandpass filter for planar integrated millimeter-wave circuits. The branch-line coupler operates as a transversal filtering section by connecting the coupling ports to the open load stubs and taking the isolation port as the output node. For design of the 94 GHz branch-line bandpass filter, we built the CPW library and optimized the characteristic impedances and the lengths of the branch-line coupler and the open load stubs. The fabricated 94 GHz bandpass filter exhibits an insertion loss of 2.5 dB with an 11.7 % 3 dB relative bandwidth and the return loss is -18.5 dB at a center frequency of 94 GHz.
