“…One of the key technologies for these systems is to realize the characterisitcs of small size, light weight, and low cost. In order to cope with these requirements, the quasi-optical active integrated antenna (AIA) technique, incorporating a planar antenna with an integrated circuit such as the Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC), has been proposed [2][3][4][5]. In order to make progress for this AIA technique, the development of a good design tool, such as a unified microwave simulator that combines the electromagnetic simulator with the circuit one, has been strongly anticipated [6].…”

A nonlinear circuit simulator and an electromagnetic simulator based on FDTD analysis are combined simultaneously to obtain circuit characteristics and field distribution for analysis of a 10-GHz slot antenna with a printed electromagnetic band gap (EBG) structure and a 23-GHz active integrated antenna (AIA) array. Experimentally, the printed EBG exhibits good performance in the active integrated antenna. The injection-reflection matching method in the time domain via a data file, called the via-file data-matching technique, is proposed as a simulation technique to connect with different types of simulation as well as different analytical conditions. The results are compared with those obtained using commercial software packages. The characteristics obtained from the simulation agreed with the experimental data, and the field distribution created by the simulator can help us understand wave-propagation behavior in the array.
