Four TE101 -mode SIW cavities and one square SIW cavity operating at two degenerate modes are used to realize the filtering crossover. The symmetrical coupling windows on each side of the square SIW cavity are used to obtain 180° phase difference between input and isolated ports, and then, high isolated level can be obtained, which becomes insensitive to the variation of filter bandwidth. Finally, an SIW filtering crossover sample operating at 20 GHz is designed and fabricated on the standard printed circuit board technology.","PeriodicalId":73297,"journal":{"name":"IEEE microwave and wireless technology letters","volume":"34 11","pages":"1243-1246"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142595142","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}

Resistors are loaded on slotline to achieve attenuation property, and dual-branch configuration and implantable microstrip line in each branch are proposed to improve attenuation slope within broadband when the attenuation amount becomes large. To validate the proposed design method, an 11-stage attenuator is designed and measured, which has a minimum insertion loss of 1.92 dB, a dynamic attenuation range of 20 dB, and a return loss of better than 8.5 dB, within the bandwidth of 2–5 GHz. Moreover, the effect of parasitic inductance in used resistors is also investigated to clarify the attenuation fluctuation of the measured attenuator.","PeriodicalId":73297,"journal":{"name":"IEEE microwave and wireless technology letters","volume":"34 11","pages":"1227-1230"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142594987","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}
