“…MEMS is a robust and wide-spread applications in many industrial segments. [13][14][15]. MEMS switches exhibit better RF characteristics and less Direct Current power utilization but only with the two main features, such as the size and the cost.…”
This paper presents a development and study of the capacitive shunt type RF MEMS switch. MEMS is a combination of mechanical and electromagnetic properties at the micro-level unit. The switch which can be used for switching purpose at RF and microwave frequencies is called RF MEMS switch. MEMS switch has many excellent advantages with potential characteristics and higher performances at radiofrequency. In this proposed design, a new type of capacitive switch is designed and analysed for RF electromagnetic properties in HFSS software and electromechanical properties in COMSOL multiphysics. The designed switch mainly consists of a substrate, co-planar waveguide (CPW), dielectric material and a metallic bridge.
