Asymmetric Passive Components in Microwave Integrated Circuits (Hardcover)

內容描述

Description

This book examines the new and important technology of asymmetric passive
components for miniaturized microwave passive circuits. The asymmetric design
methods and ideas set forth by the author are groundbreaking and have not been
treated in previous works. Readers discover how these design methods reduce
the circuit size of microwave integrated circuits and are also critical to
reducing the cost of equipment such as cellular phones, radars, antennas,
automobiles, and robots.

An introductory chapter on the history of asymmetric passive components,
which began with asymmetric ring hybrids first described by the author, sets
the background for the book. It lays a solid foundation with a chapter
examining microwave circuit parameters such as scattering, ABCD, impedance,
admittance, and image. A valuable feature of this chapter is a conversion
table between the various circuit matrices characterizing two-port networks
terminated in arbitrary impedances. The correct conversion has also never been
treated in previous works.
Next, the author sets forth a thorough treatment of asymmetric passive
component design, which covers the basic and indispensable elements for
integration with other active or passive devices, including:

Asymmetric ring hybrids
Asymmetric branch-line hybrids
Asymmetric three-port power dividers and N-way power dividers
Asymmetric ring hybrid phase shifters and attenuators
Asymmetric ring filters and asymmetric impedance transformers
With its focus on the principles of circuit element design, this is a
must-have graduate-level textbook for students in microwave engineering, as
well as a reference for design engineers who want to learn the new and
powerful design method for asymmetric passive components.
