A microstrip fed slot excited cylindrical DR is used as a terminating network. The frequency tuning is achieved by placing a varactor in shunt with the DR and varying its reverse bias voltage. An MA 46 series varactor is used for tuning purpose and the reverse bias is applied separately other than the transistor bias. The Vt-DRO is implemented using the negative resistance approach and is composed of three blocks: dielectric resonator, active network and the load network. The measured phase noise of the Vt-DRO is −90 dBc/Hz at an offset of 2 MHz. A very broad tuning range of around 225 MHz is achieved for tuning voltage of 0 to 16 V and the measured power level is around 0dBm.","PeriodicalId":397541,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Applied Electromagnetics Conference (AEMC)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116744300","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The material parameters are non singular throughout the cloak geometry and are homogeneous within each sub region. The proposed approach illustrates a design procedure to reduce the dynamic range of constitutive material parameters without compromising the cloaking performance. Material dynamic range is reduced by mapping a small square in the virtual space to concealed volume in physical space.","PeriodicalId":397541,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Applied Electromagnetics Conference (AEMC)","volume":"90 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133646369","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
