Analysis and Design of W-Band Phase ShiftersSarkas, Ioannis 28 July 2010 (has links)
This thesis describes 80−94GHz and 70−77GHz interpolating phase shifters and the corresponding transmitter and receiver ICs, fabricated in 65-nm CMOS and SiGe BiCMOS technologies, respectively. Lumped inductors and transformers are employed to realize small-form factor 90 degree hybrids as needed in high density phased arrays. The CMOS transmitter exhibits absolute phase and amplitude errors of 4 degrees and 4dB, respectively, at 90GHz, when the phase is varied from 0 degrees to 360 degrees in steps of 22.5 degrees. The absolute phase error in the SiGe BiCMOS receiver is less than 5 degrees, with a maximum gain imbalance below 3dB at 74GHz. The peak gain
and power consumption are 3.8dB and 142mW from 1.2V supply for the CMOS transmitter, and 17dB and 128mW from 1.5V and 2.5V supplies for the SiGe BiCMOS receiver.

Integrated MEMS-Based Phase ShiftersAl-Dahleh, Reena January 2008 (has links)
Multilayer microwave circuit processing technology is essential in developing more compact radio frequency (RF) electronically scanned arrays (ESAs) for next generation radar systems. ESAs are typically realized using the hybrid connection of four discrete components: RF manifold, phase shifters or Butler matrices, antennas and T/R modules. The hybrid connection of these components increases the system size, packaging cost and introduces parasitic effects that lead to higher losses. In order to eliminate these drawbacks, there is a need to integrate these components on the same substrate, forming a monolithic phased array. RF MEMS technology enables the monolithic integration of the ESA components into one highly integrated multifunctional module, thereby enhancing ESA designs by significantly reducing size, fabrication cost and interconnection losses.
A novel capacitive dual-warped beam shunt MEMS switch is presented that utilizes warped beams to enhance its RF performance. This switch exhibits an off-to-on capacitive ratio of almost 170, isolation better than 40dB, switching speeds as low as 6μs without the need for thin dielectrics or high dielectric constant materials. These MEMS switches are implemented into single pole three throw (SP3T) and single pole four throw (SP4T) configurations.
A novel 3-bit finite ground coplanar waveguide switched delay line MEMS phase shifter is developed with four cascaded SP3T dual-warped beam capacitive switches to achieve low-loss performance and simplify ESA design. The fabricated prototype unit exhibits an insertion loss of 2.5∓0.2dB with a phase error of ∓6°. Moreover, a compact 4 x 4 Butler matrix switchable with the use of a MEMS SP4T switch is investigated as an alternative passive beamforming method. The overall beam-switching network is monolithically integrated within a real-estate area of 0.49cm2. This technique provides a unique approach to fabricate the entire beamforming network monolithically.
An 8-mask fabrication process is developed that monolithically integrates the MEMS phase shifter and RF combining network on one substrate. The wafer-scale integrated ESA prototype unit has an area of 2.2cm2. It serves as the basic building block to construct larger scanning array modules and introduces a new level of functionality previously achieved only by the use of larger, heavier and expensive systems

Designs of true-time-delay lines and digital phase shifters using composite right/left-handed transmission linesZhang, Jun, 张君 January 2012 (has links)
The studies of the designs on true-time-delay lines (TTDLs), n-bit digital phase shifters and wideband switched-line phase shifters using composite right/left-handed transmission-line (CRLH TL) unit cells are presented in this thesis. To simplify these designs, a symmetrical CRLH TL unit cell having equal input and output impedance is proposed.
In the design of TDDLs, the symmetrical CRLH TL unit cell with higher time-delay efficiency helps achieve a size reduction of 67.9%, compared with the TTDL designed using right-handed transmission line (RH TL). The symmetrical CRLH TL unit cell is further modified to a compact CRLH TL unit cell to further reduce the size by 58%. For performances comparison, the TTDLs using the compact CRLH TL unit cells, symmetrical CRLH TL unit cells and RH TL are studied using computer simulation and measurement. Results show that the TTDLs using the compact CRLH TL unit cells can achieve much longer time delays. The TTDLs designed using CRLH TL unit cells have narrow bandwidths because CRLH TL unit cells have narrow bandwidths. In this thesis, a wideband unit cell obtained by rotating the CRLH TL unit cell by 900is proposed in the design of TTDLs. Simulation and measurement show that the TTDL using wideband unit cells can achieve a time delay about 3 times and 6 times longer than that of the periodic microstrip line (PML) and RH TL, respectively.
A 2-bit, 3-bit and 6-bit phase shifters using symmetrical CRLH TL unit cells are designed using computer simulation. In these designs, positive-intrinsic-negative (PIN) diodes mounted on the fingers of the CRLH TL unit cells are used as switches to control the phase response at the output. Different phase shifts are achieved using different switching states determined by controlling bits. The phase shifters are fabricated and measured. Simulated and measured results agree very well. Power-handling capability is also analyzed using surface-current density on the CRLH TL unit cells. Results show that the phase shifters have much higher power-handling capabilities than that of the PIN diodes.
A wideband 1800-switched-line phase shifter using symmetrical CRLH TL unit cell is proposed. The switched-line phase shifter employs a symmetrical CRLH TL unit cell as the reference arm and a RH TL as the delay arm to produce a constant phase shift across a wide frequency band. For comparison, a traditional 1800-switched-line phase shifter using RH TLs for both reference and delay arms is also designed. To reduce the size, the CRLH TL unit cell is realized using lump elements (LEs). Wideband 900-and 1800-switched-line phase shifters using LE-CRLH TL unit cells are studied and compared with the traditional 900-and 1800-switched-line phase shifters. Simulated and measured results show that the proposed designs using symmetrical CRLH TL unit cells and LE-CRLH TL unit cells have very constant phase shifts with smaller variations compared with the traditional designs. / published_or_final_version / Electrical and Electronic Engineering / Doctoral / Doctor of Philosophy
