Abstract

The 6G race has already begun, and many countries and giant corporations started directing significant efforts and funds towards the development of the future technology. The 6G standard is expected to migrate to higher bands of frequencies to support wider bandwidth. Through this wide bandwidth, it will be feasible to serve the expected massive number of users and future applications, such as virtual reality and HD realtime transmission. One major problem in high frequency ranges, such as mm-wave bands, is the high signal attenuation, which can be compensated through more efficient amplifier systems. In this paper, we propose a wideband amplifier design fed through a Ridge Gap Waveguide line. The proposed design has many advantages inherited from the host guiding structure. The signal is carried by a Quasi-TEM signal, which minimizes the signal distortion. Also, the structure acts as a large heat sink, which minimizes the operating temperature. As a result, the expected added noise by the proposed amplifier shall be minimal.

毫米波系统中使用脊隙波导的宽带接口放大器

6G竞赛已经开始，许多国家和大公司开始为未来技术的发展投入大量精力和资金。6G标准预计将迁移到更高的频带，以支持更宽的带宽。通过这一宽带宽，将有可能服务于预期的海量用户和未来的应用，如虚拟现实和高清实时传输。在高频率范围，如毫米波波段，一个主要问题是高信号衰减，这可以通过更有效的放大器系统来补偿。在本文中，我们提出了一种通过脊隙波导馈电的宽带放大器设计。该设计继承了主机导向结构的许多优点。信号由准瞬变电磁法信号携带，使信号失真最小化。此外，该结构作为一个大的散热器，最大限度地降低了工作温度。因此，所建议的放大器的预期附加噪声应该是最小的。
