“…To implement Ka-band filters with low insertion loss, low cost, and high power capacity, the substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) [15] can entirely meet the above requirements, besides, the SIW circuit is fabricated by standard printed circuit board (PCB) process, which is very low weight and easy to integrate with planar circuits. Therefore, SIW technology is employed for designing the millimeter-wave filters of the PMWIS, resonator antenna [16], slot antenna for terahertz application [17], etc. As shown in Fig.…”

Passive millimeter-wave imaging systems (PMWIS) are employed for detecting concealed objects by mapping millimeter waves emitted from materials or living tissues. The emitted waves are measured by a receiver or radiometers without employing external wave sources. In this paper, a new super-heterodyne receiver front-end of a PMWIS at 35 GHz with an even order band pass filter is simulated and implemented. The receiver has a suitable temperature resolution for the use of hidden object imaging, is integrated and lightweight assembled on one-layer board. It has a bandwidth of 1.5 GHz, a noise figure (NF) of 2.2, and a temperature resolution of 0.126 K. The even order filter is implemented based on the substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) technology, with Chebyshev response. The filters are designed at the central frequency of 35 GHz with the bandwidth of 1.5 GHz and one of them has controllable transmission zeroes. The filters are made by printed circuit board technology, employing SIW as resonators, having a high-quality factor of 23.33. Additionally, a triple-stage radio frequency (RF) low noise amplifier has been implemented having the specification of: RF 34.25–35.75 GHz; bandwidth 1.5 GHz; gain >60 dB; NF <2.3 dB, which are better indexes compared to some other works.

“…Presently, dielectric ceramics and dielectric composites are being expansively researched for applications in the fields of microwave absorbers, [8][9][10][11][12][13] energy storage, [14,15] and dielectric resonator antenna (DRA). [16,17] DRAs are the preferred choice for modern wireless communication applications due to their low profile, light-weight, low loss, high radiation efficiency, ease of excitation and integration, a wide variety of available materials, simple and mature fabrication techniques, and a high degree of flexibility over wide frequency range. [18] All these characteristics make dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) a potential candidate for utilization in all prevalent wireless communication systems.…”

Low dielectric constant (ɛr), high quality‐factor (Q × f), and temperature stable microwave dielectric ceramics with ultra‐low sintering temperature are the preferred choice of researchers for the development of low‐cost and high‐performance dielectric resonator antenna (DRA), which have wide application prospects for wireless communication technology. In this work, wideband DRAs fabricated using ultra‐low sintering temperature, low‐loss, and high‐quality Li6B4O9 microwave dielectric ceramics are reported. Li6B4O9 ceramic synthesized via solid‐state reaction at sintering temperature of 620 °C demonstrates excellent microwave properties with optimum ɛr = 5.95, high Q × f = 38,700@12.4 GHz, and thermal coefficient of the resonant frequency (TCF ≈ −68.6ppm/○C). For the first time, performance comparison of two Li6B4O9‐based cylindrical DRAs with different ceramic aspect (radius to height) ratios excited by slot coupled microstrip line is realized. In the first DRA with ceramic aspect ratio of 0.864, DRA HE11δ mode is excited and bandwidth of 20.01% , 95% radiation efficiency, and 6.3 dBi maximum gain is attained. In the second DRA with ceramic aspect ratio of 2.367, slot and dielectric resonator resonances are merged to attain wide bandwidth of 38.15% over which antenna broadside radiation performance is preserved. The proposed DRAs can be utilized for high‐capacity, high‐speed wireless communication applications.
