  • 利用玻璃載板被動元件製程,本論文成功設計出晶片化新型合成共平面波導,並具以實現多款微小晶片化被動微波元件。該合成共平面波導可實現廣泛之特徵阻抗與電氣長度,並具有高慢波因子之特性。本論文將詳盡討論此合成共平面波導之設計理念、等效電路模型、以及其模擬與量測結果。
    利用該合成共平面波導,本論文首先完成一款微小化枝幹耦合器;與傳統設計相較,該枝幹耦合器具有91.5%之優異電路縮小能力。此外,藉由結合180度相位反向器與合成共平面波導,本論文亦成功實現一款微小化寬頻帶鼠競耦合器,此為第一個由合成傳輸線所組成之寬頻帶元件。該微小化鼠競耦合器於激發源置於合埠與差埠時,分別具有61%與30%之操作頻寬,且擁有高達93.5%之縮小比例。
    進一步利用該合成共平面波導,可實現微小化步階式阻抗共振腔,並具以完成一款具有止帶延展特性之微小化三階帶通濾波器。相較於一般平行耦合步階式阻抗共振腔之三階帶通濾波器,其電路縮小比例可達95%,且第一寄生頻帶位於基頻之4.3倍。本論文將詳細探討此微小化步階式阻抗共振腔之設計理念、帶通濾波器之合成方法及其量測結果。
    最後,本論文成功利用合成共平面波導設計出一款微小化3dB 耦合線方向耦合器,並探討其基偶模態之電路分析、模擬及量測結果。此方向耦合器可經由調整合成共平面波導之電感及電容結構以進行耦合量之控制。與傳統設計相比較,該方向耦合器具有極小之電路面積與良好的電路響應。


    In this thesis, novel synthesized coplanar waveguides (CPWs) are developed using the glass substrate integrated passive device technology (GIPD). The proposed high-slow-wave-factor structures are capable of realizing synthesized transmission lines with a wide range of characteristic impedances and electrical lengths. The design concepts, equivalent circuit models, and experimental results are carefully investigated and discussed.
    By utilizing the synthesized CPWs, a miniaturized branch-line coupler is developed with a substantial size miniaturization of 91.5%. By incorporated with a novel 180 phase inverter, a compact wideband rat-race coupler is also designed, showing improved bandwidths of 61% and 30%, respectively, as the sum and difference ports are excited. The size reduction ratio is remarkable, as well.
    Miniaturized stepped impedance resonators (SIRs), composed by three sections of synthesized CPWs, are realized and integrated to develop a novel miniaturized third-order bandpass filter with extended stopband rejection. The proposed bandpass filter has a very compact size, which is only 5% the size of a parallel-coupled SIR filter design. The first spurious passband is 4.3 times away from the fundamental one. The design concept, filter synthesis, and experimental results are discussed in detail.
    Finally, a compact 3-dB backward-wave coupled-line directional coupler is investigated. The even/odd-mode analysis and simulated and measured results are discussed. The coupling coefficients can be controlled by adjusting the parameters of the spiral inductors and MIM capacitors in the synthesized CPWs. The proposed coupler has an extremely compact size but comparable performances as well.
