Abstract

A phase shifter is one of key modules in microwave and millimeter wave circuit and system, and is widely applied to the aspects of phased array beam forming, orthogonal circuit design, instrument and equipment testing and the like. The invention proposes a substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) phase shifter loaded with rectangular air slots.

The branch circuit I corresponds to a referenced zero phase; and a plurality of rectangular air slots are formed in an SIW body in the circuit structure of the branch circuit II and correspond to required phase shifting degrees. The branch circuit II further comprises a one-side metalized dielectric PCB cover plate matched in size with the SIW body. Four metalized matching through holes are introduced in upper and lower parts of the edge, connected with the SIW body, of a gradual transition structure. The phase shifter realizes relatively wide frequency bandwidth and has relatively low insertion loss and fixed zero phase reference value; and the phase shifter can be conveniently integrated with other planar passive and active circuits, can be realized on a PCB and is relatively low in cost and convenient and reliable to machine.

Description

A kind of broad-band chip integrated waveguide SIW phase shifter loading rectangular air groove
Technical field
Phase shifter is one of key modules in microwave and millimeter wave Circuits and Systems, and it is widely used in the aspects such as phased array beam formation, quadrature network design, tester equipment.Substrate integration wave-guide (SubstrateIntegratedWaveguide, the SIW) phase shifter loading rectangular air groove can be applied in substrate integration wave-guide (circuit), to realize global design and broadband phase shift function.
Technical background
Substrate integration wave-guide SIW is a kind of new microwave transmission line form, utilizes the metal throuth hole be produced on medium substrate to realize being similar to the field communication mode of metal waveguide.SIW is a kind of transmission line between micro-band and Filled Dielectrics metal waveguide, takes into account the advantage of conventional waveguide and microstrip transmission line, can realize high performance microwave and millimeter wave planar circuit version.
Phase shifter is a kind of very important microwave module, for adjusting the phase place of signal.The bandwidth of phase shifter is extremely crucial performance index, realizes the important directions that bandwidth wide is as far as possible research.On the other hand, the realization of broad-band phase shifter is more difficult, and the broad-band phase shifter especially realized in SIW is rare, and this has seriously limited the application of SIW in microwave and millimeter wave Circuits and Systems.Therefore it is very urgent to the demand of broad-band chip integrated waveguide phase shifter.
In existing research report, broadband type substrate integration wave-guide phase shifter mainly contains three kinds of modes and realizes.Researcher YuJianCheng realizes automatic compensating broadband phase shift function based on delay line and not wide SIW structure, see document Y.J.Cheng, W.Hong, K.Wu, " Broadbandself-compensatingphaseshiftercombiningdelayline andequal-lengthunequal-widthphaser; " IEEETransactionsonMicrowaveTheoryandTechniques, 2010,58 (1): 203-210.
Researcher T.Djerafi realizes variable artificial dielectric constant based on hole array, thus causes phase place change to realize phase shift function.See document T.Djerafi, K.Wu, S.O.Tatu, " Substrate-integratedwaveguidephaseshifterwithrod-loadeda rtificialdielectricslab; " ElectronicsLetters, 2015,51 (9): 707-709.
Researcher M.Ebrahimpouri devises embedded ' Ω ' shape micro-pattern, reduce device volume, but insertion loss is larger when ensureing broadband phase shift performance.See document M.Ebrahimpouri, S.Nikmehr, A.Pourziad, " BroadbandCompactSIWPhaseShifterUsingOmegaParticles; " IEEEMicrowaveandWirelessComponentsLetters, 2014,24 (11): 1-3.
In above three kinds of methods, for 45 ° of phase shift ranges, the phase shifter bandwidth that first method realizes is 50% (24 ~ 40GHz, 45 ° ± 3.5 °), the phase shifter bandwidth that second method realizes is 46.1% (20 ~ 32GHz, 45 ° ± 2.5 °), the phase shifter bandwidth that the third method realizes is about 60.2%, and (simulation result is 4.487 ~ 8.355GHz, 45 ° ± 2.5 °.Clearly do not provide measured result); For 90 ° of phase shift ranges, the phase shifter bandwidth that first method realizes is 45.1% (25.11 ~ 39.75GHz, 90 ° ± 2.5 °), the phase shifter bandwidth that second method realizes is 46.1% (20 ~ 32GHz, 89.5 ° ± 5 °).The phase shifter bandwidth that the third method realizes is about 55%, and (simulation result is 4.2 ~ 7.385GHz, 90 ° ± 3 °.Clearly do not provide measured result).
The first phase shifter realizes the self compensation of phase place based on delay line and not wide SIW structure, although have good amplitude-phase characteristic, but the phase reference of its reference is change, namely unfixing in theory zero phase reference value, can cause system to become complicated and redundancy due to multiple zero phase reference value in actual applications; The bandwidth of the second phase shifter need to improve within the scope of its phase shifting accuracy defined; The insertion loss of the third phase shifter is larger (about-5dB), and test bandwidth is narrower, and practicality remains to be discussed.These three kinds of methods have self limitation.
