This paper presents a variable-gain amplifier (VGA) in the 68–78 GHz range. To reduce DC power consumption, the drain voltage was set to 0.5 V with competitive performance in the gain and the noise figure. High-Q shunt capacitors were employed at the gate terminal of the core transistors to move input matching points for easy matching with a compact transformer. The four stages amplifier fabricated in 40-nm bulk complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) showed a peak gain of 24.5 dB at 71.3 GHz and 3‑dB bandwidth of more than 10 GHz in 68–78 GHz range with approximately 4.8-mW power consumption per stage. Gate-bias control of the second stage in which feedback capacitances were neutralized with cross-coupled capacitors allowed us to vary the gain by around 21 dB in the operating frequency band. The noise figure was estimated to be better than 5.9 dB in the operating frequency band from the full electromagnetic (EM) simulation.

A multiband printed Log-periodic dipole array (LPDA) antenna for wireless communications is presented. The antenna has been designed starting from Carrel’s theory, optimized using CST Microwave Studio 2012, and then realized. The comparison between simulated and measured results shows that the proposed antenna can be used for wireless communications both in the S (2.4–3 GHz) and in the C (5.2–5.8 GHz) frequency bands, with very good input matching and a satisfactory end-fire radiation pattern. Moreover, it has a compact size, is very easy to realize, and presents an excellent out-of-band rejection, without the use of stop-band filters, thus avoiding interference out of its operating frequency band.

AbstractA tunable balanced bandpass filter (BPF) with a good common-mode (CM) suppression based on slotline resonators is proposed in this letter. Two novel stub-loaded slotline resonators (SLSRs) terminated with varactors are designed to obtain tunable differential-mode (DM) responses. It is found that a high and wideband CM suppression can be achieved by employing balanced stepped-impedance microstrip-slotline transition structures. Moreover, the DM passbands are independent from the CM ones, which can significantly simplify the design procedure. To validate the design theory, a compact tunable balanced BPF with an operating frequency band ranging from 3.09 GHz to 3.6 GHz is designed and fabricated. The measured results are found to agree well with the simulated ones.

A compact hybrid-mode antenna is proposed for sub-6 GHz communication. The proposed antenna is composed of a slotted rectangular patch, a feeding dipole, and a balun. Three modes are sequentially excited in a shared patch to achieve a compact size. A prototype antenna with a major size of 0.48 λ0 × 0.31 λ0 × 0.16 λ0 (λ0 is the wavelength in the free space at the center of the operating frequency band) is fabricated and measured. The measured results demonstrate an impedance bandwidth of 56.87% from 2.97 GHz to 5.33 GHz and an average gain of approximately 8.00 dBi with 1 dB variation in the operating frequency band of 3.0–5.0 GHz. The proposed antenna can be an element for microbase stations in sub-6 GHz communication.

Structural Nonlinearity

In this paper, we proposed a multi-frequencies electromagnetic vibration energy harvester (EVEH) with a wider operating frequency band. The EVEH contains three different vibration picking-up systems with different natural frequencies. A broadened bandwidth was obtained by combining the structural nonlinearity of the vibration picking-up systems with the multi-frequencies, while the vibration energy harvest was increased by adopting two induction coils in the EVEH system. At an acceleration of 1.5g and frequencies of 45.6, 75 and 146.5 Hz, the peak–peak voltages of the prototype were 336, 270 and 39.8 mV, respectively. The corresponding bandwidths were 10.1, 7.8 and 4.2 Hz, respectively.
