Abstract:

Dielectric guides with convenient dimensions have been known to carry several modes in the 60-90 GHz range. In this report, the possibility of using the multimoded inverted strip guide ISG for the construction of passive devices has been investigated for millimeter-wave integrated circuits. A simple approach has been used to analyze the ISG, in that it was assumed to be single moded. With proper excitation this appears to be true. Two types of ISGs have been examined the quartz-teflon and teflon-teflon guides. With each type of guide two passive components were tested the distributed line directional coupler and the single pole ring resonator. Results have been presented which agree quite well with the theory. Analysis of the ISG and passive components has been included. Author
