Coplanar Microwave Integrated Circuits sets forth the theoreticalunderpinnings of coplanar waveguides and thoroughly examines thevarious coplanar components such as discontinuities, lumpedelements, resonators, couplers, and filters, which are essentialfor microwave integrated circuit design. Based on the results ofhis own research findings, the author effectively demonstrates themany advantages of coplanar waveguide technology for modern circuitdesign.
Following a brief introductory chapter, the text thoroughly coversthe material needed for successful design and realization ofcoplanar microwave circuits, including:
* Fundamental transmission properties of coplanar waveguides usinga full wave analysis
* Detailed analysis of most discontinuities used in coplanarwaveguide design
* Lumped elements in coplanar technology that are needed in circuitdesign
* Development of software for coplanar circuit design, including aCD-ROM containing a test version of the software for modelingcoplanar circuit components and circuits
* Application of derived results to build more complex componentssuch as lumped element filters, waveguide filters, millimeter wavefilters, end-coupled waveguide structures, waveguide couplers, andWilkinson couplers for different frequency ranges in coplanartechnology
The final chapter focuses on special coplanar microwave integratedcircuits that have been developed using the software presented inthe text. The book concludes with a thought-provoking discussion ofthe advantages and disadvantages of the coplanar technique.
Extensive use of figures and tables helps readers easily digest andvisualize complex concepts. A bibliography is included at the endof each chapter for further study and research.
Coplanar Microwave Integrated Circuits is recommended for graduatestudents and engineers in RF microwaves who want to reap all theadvantages and possibilities of coplanar technology.
