Duplexer with impedance inverter

ActiveCN116846424BAntenna impedanceMechanical engineering
The present disclosure relates to a diplexer with an impedance inverter. The diplexer can be used to isolate a transmitter and a receiver that share a common antenna. The diplexer is balanced by using an impedance gradient that provides an impedance that causes a balun of the diplexer to cut off access to the common antenna rather than replicate the antenna impedance. Such a cut off can have lower insertion loss than a diplexer that replicates the antenna impedance only to separate differential signals and common mode signals of the receiver and transmitter.

A millimeter wave wideband packaged antenna structure

PendingCN122393604AAntenna impedanceElectromagnetic field coupling
This invention provides a millimeter-wave broadband packaged antenna structure, comprising a packaging substrate composed of alternating stacked metal layers and dielectric layers. Multiple metal layers have vertically aligned center-gap regions. A driving patch, a microstrip line matching segment, and a stripline are sequentially connected and aligned along the signal transmission path. A parasitic patch, parallel to and vertically aligned with the driving patch, is located in an adjacent metal layer directly above it. These two patches are not directly electrically connected but are fed through electromagnetic field coupling, allowing the driving patch and parasitic patch to operate at similar but different resonant frequencies, forming a dual-resonance operating mode. This effectively expands the antenna impedance bandwidth. Stripline shielding holes are provided on both sides of the stripline, and antenna shielding holes are arranged around the edge of the gap regions to suppress signal leakage and cavity resonance. This invention replaces the traditional coplanar or slotted method with a vertically stacked coupling structure, achieving antenna miniaturization while significantly improving bandwidth, and enhancing the design freedom of impedance matching through the microstrip line matching segment.
