Abstract |
A new active resonator using defected ground structure with islands (DGSI) is proposed. The proposed resonator is composed of the conventional microstrip line with DGSI and negative resistance of active devices. The negative resistance part is realized by field effect transistor (FET) series feedback circuits. The characteristic of the proposed resonator with DGSI is improved by combining the negative resistance part with the parallel microstrip line structure with islands, where the electric field is formed the most strongly. The measured improvement of the proposed active resonator with DGSI are 4.55dB and 0.32dB in S21 and S22, respectively, at the resonant frequency whorl it is compared to the existing passive resonator having DGSI only. |
