Hybrid FGCPW/CPS scheme in the building block design of low-cost uniplanar and multilayer circuit and antenna

摘要: A hybrid design scheme of finite-ground coplanar waveguide (FGCPW) and stripline (CPS) is studied for low-cost miniaturized uniplanar multilayer circuits antennas. Two types FGCPW/CPS transition are characterized through a "short-open calibration" (SOC) technique self-contained in our full-wave method moments (MOM). Extracting numerical error terms along the FGCPW CPS feed lines with short open standards, electrical properties these structures can be effectively calibrated (deembedded) general-purpose circuit model. Back-to-back FGCPW-to-CPS transitions analyzed from extracted models predicted characteristics confirmed by measurements. Further, fed dipole antenna realized measured to showcase proposed building block scheme.
