The components of embodiments of the present invention generally described and illustrated in the figures herein may be arranged and designed in a wide variety of different configurations.
Example 1

The middle metal layer is square, and a first L-shaped groove and a second L-shaped groove which is shorter than the first L-shaped groove are etched on two opposite corners of the middle metal layer. The requirements of technical indexes such as insertion loss, return loss, out-of-band rejection and the like are met in the working bandwidth, the advantages of the double-folded quarter-mode folded dielectric integrated waveguide and the double-mode filter are exerted, and meanwhile, the size of the filter is greatly reduced. Although the size of the filter is reduced, the application of the multi-layer dielectric plate increases the thickness of the microwave device on the one hand, and undoubtedly increases the complexity of the manufacturing process and the manufacturing cost on the other hand. It is therefore sought to further reduce the size of the microwave device without increasing the thickness of the microwave device, in order to facilitate integration with other components.
Based on this, the embodiment provides a quarter-mode slow-wave dielectric integrated waveguide filter for wireless data transmission, which abandons the conventional slow-wave dielectric integrated waveguide structure of a double-layer dielectric slab, adopts a single-layer slow-wave structure easy to process, the structure is realized by periodically loading triangular loading units on a metal layer on the upper surface of the dielectric integrated waveguide, namely, the miniaturization is realized by combining the design of the 1/n die cutting technology and the slow wave loading technology, it is noted that, the dielectric integrated waveguide filter based on the 1/n die cutting technology, the method is to cut along the central line of the dielectric integrated waveguide cavity, the cut surface is equivalent to a virtual magnetic wall, the cut filter can not only keep the propagation characteristic of the original mode, but also reduce the volume, the miniaturization of the dielectric integrated waveguide based on the slow wave loading technology is realized by enhancing the equivalent inductance or capacitance effect to reduce the resonance frequency. Meanwhile, the microstrip transmission line of the input/output port is bent to form a source-load coupling structure, and transmission zero points are generated on two sides of a passband so as to improve the frequency selectivity and the out-of-band rejection degree of the filter.
Specifically, in the slow-wave loading technical scheme of the embodiment, the upper surface metal layer is divided into the outer ring groove and the inner metal patch by the triangular ring groove, the metalized through hole is only connected with the inner metal patch and the lower surface metal layer, and the whole structure can be regarded as a small triangular loading unit surrounded by the planar metal ring groove; through the non-direct connection periodic arrangement, the adjacent metal ring grooves form a net-shaped grid, and the side edge of the metal electric wall is formed by the traditional dielectric integrated waveguide metalized through hole array.
When the half-mode dielectric integrated waveguide resonant cavity is actually used, the full-mode resonant cavity dielectric integrated waveguide is divided into two parts along the symmetrical position of an electric field according to the distribution of the electromagnetic field in the full-mode resonant cavity dielectric integrated waveguide, so that a half-mode dielectric integrated waveguide resonant cavity is obtained, and the half-mode dielectric integrated waveguide resonant cavity is divided equally again along an equivalent magnetic wall so as to obtain a quarter-mode dielectric integrated waveguide resonant cavity; the filter provided by the embodiment is a second-order quarter-mode slow wave integrated waveguide filter formed by cascading two first-order quarter-mode slow wave resonant cavities together through magnetic coupling, the resonant frequency and the coupling strength of the two quarter-mode medium integrated waveguide slow wave resonant cavities can be adjusted by increasing or reducing the number or geometric parameters of metalized through holes shared between the two slow wave resonant cavities, and meanwhile, a microstrip transmission line forms a source-load coupling structure through bending to generate a transmission zero point so as to achieve the purpose of improving the performance of the filter, so that the problems pointed out in the background art are solved.
The adopted technical scheme is as follows:
a quarter-mode slow-wave dielectric integrated waveguide filter for wireless data transmission, specifically referring to FIG. 2, comprises a rectangular dielectric substrate 1, wherein the dielectric substrate 1 comprises an upper surface metal copper layer, a lower surface metal copper layer, a microstrip transmission line 8 structure and two capacitance-enhanced quarter-mode slow-wave resonant cavities, and the two capacitance-enhanced quarter-mode slow-wave resonant cavities are cascaded in a magnetic coupling manner; a grounding metallized through hole 4 is arranged between the two capacitance enhanced quarter-mode slow-wave resonant cavities, one sides of the capacitance enhanced quarter-mode slow-wave resonant cavities far away from the metallized through hole array 9 are respectively connected with a microstrip transmission line 8, and the two capacitance enhanced quarter-mode slow-wave resonant cavities and the connected microstrip transmission lines 8 are in left-right mirror symmetry about the grounding metallized through hole 4.
Referring to fig. 1, the capacitance-enhanced quarter-mode slow-wave resonator includes M combinations of peripheral ring grooves 5 etched in an upper surface metal layer 6 and not directly connected, an internal metal patch 2, and metalized through holes 3 connected to the internal metal patch 2 and grounded, the combinations are periodically arranged and connected to each other through an upper surface copper layer, and M is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1.
In this embodiment, what two electric capacity enhancement mode quarter mode slow wave resonant cavities adopted is that two triangle-shaped's slow wave resonant cavity cascade forms, and it is shown with reference to fig. 3, peripheral annular 5, the etching of inside metal paster 2 form, metal paster 2 is triangle-shaped metal paster 2, annular 5 is triangle-shaped annular 5, and the upper surface metal copper layer is etched by triangle-shaped annular 5 and the inside triangle-shaped metal paster 2 and the metallization through-hole 3 that form constitute a triangle-shaped loading unit jointly, metallization through-hole 3 is connected to lower surface metal copper layer.
It should be noted that the mesh grid in the structure provided by the present embodiment corresponds to the upper surface of the conventional dielectric integrated waveguide, and the inner metal patch 2 surrounded by the mesh grid is actually connected to the raised ground plane through the metalized via 3. Because the electric field is captured by the annular groove 5 between the internal metal patch 2 at the top of the metalized through hole 3 and the mesh grid, the electric field originally concentrated in the middle of the dielectric integrated waveguide is concentrated between the triangular annular groove 5 and the triangular metal patch 2, and the capacitance effect on the surface of the metal layer 6 on the upper surface of the dielectric integrated waveguide is greatly enhanced.
The metalized through holes 3 are connected to the center positions of the triangular metal patches 2, and the triangular metal patches 2 and the metalized through holes 3 in the centers of the metal patches 2 jointly form an upper surface capacitance enhanced array loading area.

It can be seen from fig. 4 that the in-band group delay of the filter is relatively flat in the middle passband, and slightly worsens near the upper and lower roll-off edges, and the group delay in the passband is less than 1.1 ns. As can be seen from FIG. 5, the S parameter simulation curve has two poles, which are respectively 3.54GHz and 3.73GHz, the in-band return loss is lower than 23dB, the insertion loss is lower than 0.92dB, and simultaneously, the S21 curves of the upper and lower stop bands are steeper, the overall out-of-band suppression degree within the range of 4.2-9.0 GHz is lower than 13dB, and two transmission zeros are realized at 4.35GHz and 7.0GHz, and the suppression degrees are respectively 25dB and 50dB, which indicates that the out-of-band suppression effect and the frequency selectivity are good.
In summary, the technical scheme of the embodiment of the utility model at least has the following advantages and beneficial effects: the slow wave dielectric integrated waveguide filter provided by the utility model has good performance in the aspects of out-of-band rejection performance and frequency selectivity. Meanwhile, as the quarter-mode slow wave medium integrated waveguide structure is adopted, the volume is reduced, and the cost is saved; meanwhile, the resonant frequency and the coupling strength of the two resonant cavities can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the number or geometric parameters of the grounding metalized through holes shared between the two slow-wave resonant cavities so as to achieve the purposes of improving the performance of the filter and compressing the size of the filter.
