Ring Resonators (ring + resonator)
Kinds of Ring Resonators Selected AbstractsMicrostrip dual-band bandpass filters using parallel-connected open-loop ring resonatorsINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF RF AND MICROWAVE COMPUTER-AIDED ENGINEERING, Issue 3 2008Lung-Hwa Hsieh Abstract This article proposes a microstrip dual-band bandpass filter that uses parallel-connected open-loop ring resonators. Compared to many microstrip dual-band filters, the advantages of using microstrip open-loop ring resonators are easy calculation (half-guided-wavelength), easy fabrication (equal width for all 50-, lines and without grounding holes), and direct connection to external feed lines (reducing insertion loss caused by gap couplings). Another advantage of the filter is an asymmetrical feed on the ring resonator that provides sharp rejections at its adjacent bands. The input and output matches of resonators to the external feed lines are derived using a simple transmission-line theory. The results of the derivation provide a simple design rule for filter designers. Simulated and measured results are presented with good agreement. The filter has minimum insertion loss of 1.25 dB at 1.85 GHz and 1.6 dB at 2.33 GHz. The 3-dB fractional bandwidths are 5.9% for the 1.9-GHz bandpass filter and 4.7% for the 2.4-GHz bandpass filter, respectively. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J RF and Microwave CAE, 2008.

Hanim Abstract Stable dark soliton pulses have been successfully generated in an erbium doped dispersion compensated fiber (DCF) using an enhanced dual Brillouin fiber laser (DBFL) scheme.Multidark soliton pulses generation in an S-band erbium doped depressed cladding fiber (DC-EDF) using a multiwavelength Brillouin fiber laser (MW-BFL). Configuration has also been successfully demonstrated. The hybrid amplification from the 300 mW power of Raman pump (RP), 7.7 km long DCF, and 30 m DC-EDF that is being pumped bidirectionally results in a stable multiwavelength Brillouin peaks in the S-band region. Results obtained shows that the insertion of linear gain medium with bidirectional pumping of the DC-EDF into the cavity gives significant amplification and promotes the formation of stokes peaks in the S-band region. The number of Brillouin peaks generated is closely dependent on the DBFL and MW-BFL configuration, the Brillouin pump (BP) signal wavelength, the BP coupling ratio, and the RP power. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Compared with the conventional structure, this filter can achieve a wider bandgap by shifting the gap of CSRR from the side of the microstrip to the underside. And then, a lower transmission zero can be realized by loading a pair of narrow slots in the gap of the ring. The equivalent circuit model of the structure is provided. By cascading CSRR cells with different transmission zeros, a ultra-wide bandgap low-pass filter (LPF), which has a cutoff frequency at 4.3 GHz is designed. The designed LPF has a high performance with an insertion loss lower than 0.3 dB in pass band, a high out-band suppression more than 20 dB (4.55,25 GHz), and a very sharp transition band about 0.25 GHz (4.3,4.55 GHz). © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This antenna consists of an annular patch and a 50 , microstrip feed line. The 3.5/5.5 GHz dual band-notched characteristic gets achieved by etching a C-shaped slot in the patch and complimentary split ring resonator (CSRR) structure in the ground.

A dual-mode square ring resonator loaded with two 5,0/4 (,0 is the center wavelength of the filter) folded stubs is introduced to realize a 3 dB passband bandwidth of about 15%. Because of the transmission zeros produced by the dual-mode ring resonator in the stopbands, the proposed filter exhibits sharp attenuations near the passband. On the other hand, a parallel-coupled two-mode resonator is introduced and integrated with the dual-mode ring resonator to get a further improvement of the out-band performance with wide stopbands. The fabricated filter has an insertion loss better than 2 dB in the passband and rejections greater than 20 dB at most of the frequencies in the stopbands. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

[source] Miniaturized rectangular waveguide filtersINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF RF AND MICROWAVE COMPUTER-AIDED ENGINEERING, Issue 4 2007Alexander Shelkovnikov Abstract Two types of miniaturized rectangular waveguide filters are presented. Miniaturization is achieved using the slow-wave effect of electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) surfaces and the left-handed properties of split ring resonators (SRRs). The proposed EBG waveguide bandpass filter performs passband in the frequency range, which corresponds to the waveguide with the lower recommended operating band consequently enabling significant miniaturization of the structure. The SRR-loaded bandstop filter makes use of the effect imposed by left-handed medium (LHM), which is created by a combination of SRRs and wireline on the dielectric slab. Both filters are designed, simulated, and tested. Experimental results of the SRR-loaded bandstop filter are presented to demonstrate feasibility of the proposed structures. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J RF and Microwave CAE, 2007.

Tuning is achieved by loading a host microstrip line with varactor-loaded complementary split ring resonators (VLCSRRs) and varactor diodes. By locating the varactor diodes in series configuration with the line, outside the region occupied by the VLCSRRs, it is possible to control the characteristic impedance and the electrical length (phase shift), over a wide band. As an illustrative example, a tunable 35 ,/90° line functional between 0.4 and 0.8 GHz (which represents more than 65% tuning range), is presented and applied to the design of a transmission line power divider. The device is small and it exhibits reasonable performance. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The bandstop characteristic is produced by a new configuration of split ring resonators (SRRs). Being different from the conventional reverse split rings, this novel structure consists of two codirectional split rings and locates in the both sides of the rectangular radiating patch. Furthermore, the length of each ring controls the corresponding resonant frequency. By adjusting the dimension of the codirectional SRRs, the band-rejected frequencies from 3.25 to 3.75 GHz and from 5.15 to 5.6 GHz can be achieved easily. These rejected bands cover the operating bands, which have been applied to WiMAX and WLAN. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Specifically, from a parameter extraction technique previously proposed by some of the authors, the electrical parameters of CSRR-loaded lines (namely, the line inductance, the inductance and capacitance of the CSRR, and the coupling capacitance between the line and the CSRRs), are inferred. This analysis is of interest because, in spite of the existence of analytical models that predict the electrical parameters of these CSRR-loaded lines, the validity of these models is limited, and the parameter extraction method is necessary to accurately determine the electrical parameters from geometry. From the analysis carried out in this work, interesting conclusions for the design of CSRR-loaded lines are obtained. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The diplexer is composed of two rectangular rings, which termed as the Tx- and Rx-ring, with each ring its input and output ports separated from each other by a quarter-wavelength to create the degenerate-mode resonance. The ratio of the long- and short-side dimension of rectangular ring can be used to fine tune the passband's bandwidth and the ratio is properly chosen to achieve sufficient bandwidth required by the UMTS diplexer applications. An enhanced parallel-coupled structure is introduced in the circuit to replace the conventional end-gap coupling for reducing the insertion losses in the passband. The effect of the coupling-line length is also simulated and the resulting data are used to precisely tune the positions of the zeros. In the zero assignment, one of the zeros possessed by each ring filter is managed to be implanted in the passband of its counterpart filter for increasing the isolation between the Rx- and Tx-port. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

To this end, we make use of the lumped element equivalent circuit model of the structure, from which an accurate analysis is carried out, and the influence of the main electrical parameters on the transmission properties is pointed out through electrical simulations. Aspects such as bandwidth and in-band ripple control are discussed in detail. The influence of the geometrical parameters is also discussed and interpreted to the light of the equivalent circuit model. From the results obtained, there are inferred design guidelines that are suitable for the design of metamaterial transmission lines subjected to specifications.
