This paper presents a single-pole 32-throw (SP32T) switch with an operating frequency of up to 6 GHz for 5G communication applications. Compared to the traditional SP32T module implemented by the waveguide package with large volume and power, the proposed switch can significantly simplify the system with a smaller size and light weight. The proposed SP32T scheme utilizing tree structure can dramatically reduce the dc power and enhance isolation between different output ports, which makes it suitable for low-power 5G communication. A design methodology of a novel transmission (ABCD) matrix is proposed to optimize the switch, which can achieve low insertion loss and high isolation simultaneously. The average insertion loss and the isolations are 1.5 and 35 dB at 6 GHz operating frequency, respectively. The switch exhibits the measured input return loss which is better than 10 dB at 6 GHz. The 1 dB input compression point of SP32T is 15 dBm. The prototype is designed in 5 V 0.25 μm GaAs technology and occupies a small area of 12 mm2.

AbstractA compact transition between conductor-backed coplanar waveguide (CBCPW) and substrate integrated suspended line (SISL) is presented. Compared to the reported transitions from CBCPW to SISL, performance and compactness are improved. For demonstration purpose, a multilayer transition is designed and fabricated for operation up to 46 GHz. Experimental results, based on an electronic calibration and thru–reflect–line calibration allowing measurement in the 0.01–50 GHz frequency range, demonstrate an insertion loss of 0.59 ± 0.51 dB with a return loss of better than 10 dB in the 10 MHz to 46 GHz frequency range.

In this paper, a novel wideband right-angle transition between thin substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) and rectangular waveguide (RWG) based on multi-section structure operating at center frequency 31.5 GHz is presented. A multi-section SIW with a rectangular aperture etched on the broad wall and two stepped ridges embedded in the RWG flange are introduced to obtain a wide impedance matching. The simulations show that the bandwidth with return loss better than 20 dB is about 17 GHz. In order to verify our designs, two back-to-back transitions with different lengths are fabricated and measured. The experimental results agree well with simulations. The proposed component shows an insertion loss less than 0.44 dB and a return loss better than 14.5 dB over 12.15 GH, which corresponds to 38.57% bandwidth.

In this paper, design, fabrication and measurements of a novel single-pole-double-throw three-state RF MEMS switch based on silicon substrate are presented. The RF MEMS switch consists of two UV-shaped beam push–pull thermal actuators which have three states of ON, OFF and Deep-OFF by using current actuation. When the switch is at Deep-OFF state, it can provide a higher isolation. The switch is fabricated by MetalMUMPs process. The measurement results show that, to the proposed single-pole-double-throw RF MEMS switch, when Switch I is at the ON state and Switch II is at the OFF state, the return loss is better than −16 dB, the insertion loss of Port1 and Port2 is less than −0.9 dB and the isolation of Port3 and Port1 is better than −22 dB at the frequency range from 8 GHz to 12 GHz. When Switch I is at the ON state and the actuator of Switch II is pulled back, which is called the Deep-OFF state, the return loss of Port1 is better than −15.5 dB, the insertion loss of Port1 and Port2 is better than −0.8 dB, and the isolation of Port3 and Port1 is better than −23.5 dB can be achieved at the frequency range from 8 GHz to 12 GHz.
