In this embodiment, the first module and the second module may be equivalently microstrip lines with characteristic impedance of 35.3 Ω and electrical length of 1/4 wavelength. The functions among the structures of the first high-impedance microstrip line, the first open-circuit microstrip line and the second open-circuit microstrip line of the first module and the second module are described as follows:
1. according to the theoretical knowledge of a microwave circuit, the effect generated by the microstrip circuit can be equivalent to the effect generated by the inductance and the capacitance of the concentrated element, the broadband of the first open-circuit microstrip line and the second open-circuit microstrip line is narrower, the width is 0.2mm, so that the equivalent inductance effect of the first open-circuit microstrip line and the second open-circuit microstrip line is stronger than the capacitance effect, and the inductance effect is the main part; a certain gap is arranged between the adjacent first open-circuit microstrip line and the second open-circuit microstrip line, and the two open-circuit microstrip lines form an interdigital structure circuit, so that the capacitive effect is introduced; the inductance effect generated by the first open-circuit microstrip line and the second open-circuit microstrip line and the capacitance effect generated by the interdigital structure circuit formed by the two open-circuit microstrip line structures are beneficial to realizing miniaturization.
2. The first high-impedance microstrip line and the second high-impedance microstrip line are bent and folded into a certain shape, such as a fold line shape, so that the internal space is fully utilized, and the miniaturization characteristic is further realized.
3. The line width of the first high-impedance microstrip line is small and is 0.2mm, the equivalent inductance effect is strong, and the inductance effect generated by the first open-circuit microstrip line and the second open-circuit microstrip line and the capacitance effect generated by an interdigital structure circuit formed by the two open-circuit microstrip line structures together enable an input signal to generate a slow wave effect when passing through the first module, so that miniaturization is realized.
In this embodiment, the third module and the fourth module may be equivalently microstrip lines with characteristic impedance of 50Ω and electrical length of 1/4 wavelength. In the same way, the structure in the third and fourth modules can be analyzed in the same way as theory, with similar effects and effects as in the first and second modules.
Compared with the prior art, the product structure of the utility model has the advantages of miniaturization, low cost, stable performance, easy integration with other circuit modules and the like, and is analyzed in detail as follows:
1. the first open-circuit microstrip line and the second open-circuit microstrip line form an interdigital structure circuit together to generate a capacitance effect, and the working principle is similar to that of a parallel plate capacitor; the smaller the distance between the first open-circuit microstrip line and the second open-circuit microstrip line is, the stronger the capacitance effect generated by the first open-circuit microstrip line is, which is more beneficial to realizing miniaturization. Meanwhile, a capacitive effect formed between the first open-circuit microstrip line and the second open-circuit microstrip line can replace a lumped capacitive element, so that the cost of the mixer is further reduced. Similarly, the interdigital structure circuit formed by the third open-circuit microstrip line and the fourth open-circuit microstrip line has the same function.
2. The first high-impedance microstrip line and the second high-impedance microstrip line are bent and folded into a certain shape, such as a fold line shape, so that the internal space is fully utilized, and the miniaturization is facilitated.
3. The line width of the first high-impedance microstrip line in the first module and the second module is small, the equivalent inductance effect generated by the first high-impedance microstrip line is strong, and meanwhile, a strong capacitance effect is generated between the first open-circuit microstrip line and the second open-circuit microstrip line. Due to inductance and capacitance effects generated by the first module and the second module, slow wave effects can be generated when input signals pass through the modules, and miniaturization is facilitated. The principle of slow wave effect is analyzed as follows:
as can be seen from the following three formulas, the characteristic impedance Z of the transmission line increases the equivalent inductance and capacitance effects of the transmission line simultaneously and in equal ratio 0 The phase velocity Vp of the signal on the transmission line is unchanged, so that the wave line lambda of the transmission line is reduced at the same operating frequency, and the corresponding physical size is reduced when the wavelength is reduced, thereby achieving the purpose of miniaturization.
Therefore, under the same working frequency, the utility model introduces a slow wave effect in the structure so that the physical size of the mixer is reduced, thereby achieving the purpose of miniaturization.
The equivalent inductance effect of the first high-impedance microstrip line in the first module and the second module and the capacitance effect generated by the interdigital structure circuit formed between the first open-circuit microstrip line and the second open-circuit microstrip line are based on the slow wave effect principle, so that the purpose of miniaturization is achieved. Similarly, the third module and the fourth module operate in a similar manner to the first module and the second module.
4. Based on the theoretical analysis, electromagnetic modeling simulation and experimental demonstration are carried out on the miniaturized interdigital micro-strip type 90-degree mixer, and from the simulation results of fig. 2, 3 and 4, the structure in fig. 1 has excellent performance, and the size and the area of the structure in fig. 1 are reduced by about 77% compared with the traditional mixer.
The foregoing is only illustrative of the preferred embodiments of the present utility model, but the scope of the utility model is not limited thereto, and any other changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications that do not depart from the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be made therein and are intended to be equivalent substitutes.
