Our researches are in keeping with the general pattern of straight and curved waveguide filter structures. More particularly, evanescent modes raise a tremendous interest. An efficient VisualC++ CAD tool has been already developed on CNES behalf for these filtering straight structures at X-band. A genetic algorithm (GA) optimization completed it to carry out the filter synthesis. The accuracy of this computed mode-matching technique applied to an evanescent mode straight waveguide was confirmed by many prototypes. We proceed with the analysis of waveguide bends in order to replace dielectric insert terms. Thus, the objective of this paper is to describe an efficient and simple method to model waveguides with bends, applied to the synthesis of high power filtering structures. In this paper, we are focusing on the bend study and on the critical problem of the straight/curved waveguide discontinuity too, before the plotted results.","PeriodicalId":156662,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2003 SBMO/IEEE MTT-S International Microwave and Optoelectronics Conference - IMOC 2003.

Comparison of the /spl delta/-doped and undoped devices shows improved performance due to the /spl delta/-doping. In this paper, we simulate the device dynamics behavior using Ramo's theorem. Results show that the introduction of a /spl delta/-doping layer significantly changes the 2D potential and field profiles from horizontally oriented to vertically oriented ones due to the screening effect of the highly crowded two dimensional electron gas (2DEG) formed along the interface of the heterojunction, which reduces the carrier travel distance, hence the transit time of carriers in the device. With this knowledge, we expect to achieve high speed performance without further scaling down of the device.","PeriodicalId":156662,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2003 SBMO/IEEE MTT-S International Microwave and Optoelectronics Conference - IMOC 2003.

The cellular telephone is modelled as a dipole antenna, operating at 1.8 GHz and radiating powers of 120 and 600 mW. The SAR distribution and the temperature rise were calculated using the FDTD method. Differently from previous researches, a program was developed to visualize the temperature distribution and temperature rise in 3D, in different layers or in different materials of the model. 3D visualization allows a better and more natural understanding of the possible thermal effects. The device operating at 1.8 GHz, 120 and 600 mW resulted in maximum temperature rise values of 0.4/spl deg/C and 2/spl deg/C, respectively; and maximum SAR of 3.9 W/kg. These values do not exceed the safety standards.","PeriodicalId":156662,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2003 SBMO/IEEE MTT-S International Microwave and Optoelectronics Conference - IMOC 2003.

It is shown that this new design method overcomes the classical methods and demands a lower computational effort. In both cases, the classical and the new excitation coefficients method, the array elements are distributed along the array axis provided that elements placed at the ends have the same excitation amplitude.","PeriodicalId":156662,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2003 SBMO/IEEE MTT-S International Microwave and Optoelectronics Conference - IMOC 2003.
