“…Recently, low profile antenna with wideband performance plays a crucial role during the development of high-capacity wireless communication networks. For instance, wireless applications operating at X-band, including marine radar, satellite communication and motion detection, are in great demand for planar wideband antennas [1][2][3]. Substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) cavity-backed slot antennas (CBSAs) have been extensively investigated because they own excellent characteristics of low profile, high efficiency, easy fabrication, low cost, and convenient integration with planar circuits [4]- [27].…”

Substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) elliptical cavity-backed slot antennas (CBSAs) with either penta-or hepta-resonance are characterized and designed for wideband performance in this paper. First, the resonant behavior of the elliptical cavity is explored. Then the SIW CBSA with penta-resonance is designed by introducing a cross-shaped slot and a pair of unbalanced shorting vias into the cavity to excite two additional odd-and even-half degenerate quasi-TM 110 modes, besides other three modes of half quasi-TM 010 , and odd-and even-quasi-TM 110. Further, by adding another pair of unbalanced shorting vias, two extra higher-order modes, i.e., odd-and even-quasi-TM 210 modes are successfully introduced to design a hepta-resonance antenna. The corresponding mode analysis and design guidelines are discussed in detail. Two prototypes are fabricated and measured at X-band, exhibiting the measured bandwidths of 21.8% and 22.7%, respectively. Measured results agree well with simulations, thus validating the design concept. INDEX TERMS Elliptical cavity-backed slot antenna, mode analysis, wideband applications, substrate integrated waveguide (SIW).

“…The drawback in designing patch antennas for higher frequencies is due to its miniaturized size as it is known that the patch is a near-perfect radiator when a half-wavelength in size, so when a mm-wave antenna is designed, its size is so compact that it may increase conduction and reflection losses. As a patch radiator is a cavity resonator, to cover a larger bandwidth, it becomes necessary to use a thicker substrate which boosts the leakage power due to surface wave propagation [3]. Substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) and slotted waveguide provide a waveguide structure to create an array antenna and this is currently a hot topic providing up to 30 dBi of gain and narrow beamwidth, but to achieve this excellent result it is necessary to trade off the low impedance bandwidth against the large size of an antenna [4].…”

A novel slotted rectangular patch antenna for E and W band, which resonates at the frequency of 67 GHz and has impedance bandwidth of 13.2 GHz, is used for resolving the issues of compactness, gain and efficiency of antenna designs for future generation 5G devices such as watches, and dongles. The single element antenna, having a dimension of 5.5 × 4.7 × 0.381 mm3, with a realized gain of 8.9 dBi was achieved. A rectangular slot was placed in the ground plane, just under the feed line of a microstrip patch antenna (MSPA), and this works as a defected ground structure (DGS): this improved the gain by up to 2 dB in the proposed design. The partial ground is used for tuning the impedance bandwidth. The rationale for the DGS, the partial ground, and the effect of the slot technique are discussed and implemented in this paper.

“…In modern society, satellite communication, marine radar, fire control radar, and other communication systems [1][2][3][4][5][6] work at X-band frequency. In these applications, X-band filters are integrated at the receiving front ends [5,6], which have highfrequency selectivity effects.…”

“…Fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) are widely used in optical communications due to the flexibility of customizing both the amplitude and phase of the frequency response. FBGs have a large variety of applications, such as in fiber-ring lasers as frequency selective mechanism [1], microwave photonics [2], and wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) for compensating fiber chromatic dispersion (CD). Compared with CD compensating fibers, FBG-based CD modules are more compact, have lower insertion losses, induce less nonlinear distortion and can be designed to compensate both 1st-and 2nd-order CD [3].…”

This paper presents a superconducting manifold‐coupled narrowband triplexer at X‐band frequency. The high Q‐value resonator is adopted to create a filter with low insertion loss. Impedance matching and iterative design methods are used to design the duplexer and manifold structure. Furthermore, metal shielding plates are used to separate the three channels to suppress the box resonant modes. The three bandwidths of the superconducting triplexer are all 60 MHz, and the center frequencies are 9.0, 9.12, and 9.24 GHz. The triplexer exhibits good performance at 65 K, with an insertion loss of 0.7 dB at 9.24 GHz. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 58:2949–2954, 2016
