CHAPTER 1 PROBLEMS
1.1 Waveguide generally has lower line loss than microstrip. SIW(Substrate Integrated Waveguide)
can be regarded as the planar version of waveguide. How SIW is configured using substrate?
Solution
A post-wall waveguide (also known as substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) or a laminated
waveguide) is a synthetic rectangular electromagnetic waveguide formed in a dielectric substrate by
densely arraying metallized posts or via-holes which connect the upper and lower metal plates of
the substrate. The waveguide can be easily fabricated with low-cost and mass-production using
through-hole techniques where the post walls consists of via fences. The post-wall waveguide is
known to have similar guided wave and mode characteristics to the conventional rectangular
waveguide with equivalent guided wavelength. The structure is shown below. Since SIW provides
low loss, filters using SIW have studied by many researchers.
Figure 1.1 The structure of SIW
1.2 Find the microwave integrated circuit example built using LTCC in the web-site.
Solution
In the web site http://www. barryltcc.com/, there is a TR (Transmit and Receive) module for radar.
1.3 How the ALC in Figure 1.7 is constructed?
Solution
Figure 1.2 shows a block diagram for ALC. Usually PA module has the terminal for output power
control. If not, a driver amplifier should be designed to control the output power level. A small
portion of output power is sampled through a directional coupler as shown in Fig. 1.2 and the RF
power level is detected through a diode detector. The reference signal is a variable DC voltage

source. Sometimes when the variable voltage source is difficult, it is generated using a lowpass
filter PWM (Pulse width modulation) signal generated from the controller. The average DC voltage
corresponds to the desired power level. Since it is a negative feedback loop, the detector voltage is
equal to the reference voltage at the steady state. Thus the output power level can be controlled by
changing the reference voltage.
Figure 1.2 ALC block diagram
1.4 Refer to SA605 which is used to demodulate the FM signal. Explain its block diagram.
Solution
FM demodulation in SA605 is based on quadrature FM demodulator shown in Fig. 1.3. In coming
FM signal is split in two paths; one is directly applied to the mixer and the other is coupled to the
resonant circuit centered at the FM carrier frequency by a high reactance capacitor. As a result, the
signal coupled to the high reactance capacitor suffers a 90 phase shift. The FM modulated signal
suffers additional phase shift proportional to the resonator slope and AM modulated waveform
proportional to FM modulation appears at V2. As a result of mixing demodulated FM waveform
appears.
Figure 1.3 Quadrature FM demodulator
1.5 Refer the web-site of PLL IC. Explain the synthesizer data bus shown in Fig. 1.7.
Solution
Refer to Analog Devices, RF PLL Frequency Synthesizers ADF4110/4111/4112/4113, August,
2012.

1.6 How the PLL can be modulated? Explain how to set the PLL loop bandwidth.
Solution
For FM signal generation at the VCO output, the modulation signal may be directly injected to
VCO tuning input. The fast varying signal than PLL loop bandwidth can modulate VCO
successfully, however the slow varying one will be compensated by the PLL and does not present
the modulated output.

CHAPTER 2 PROBLEMS
2.1 A company A fabricates a thin film resistor whose sheet resistivity is 50 ohm/square and in the
case of a company B, an identical thin film resistor has a sheet resistivity of 100 ohm/square. What
is the difference between the processes of the two companies? Furthermore, given that the
material’s volume resistivity is ρ and its thickness is t, find its sheet resistivity.
Solution
The thickness of the resistor material of the company A is two times thicker than that of the
company B.

2.2 Given that the sheet resistivity is 50 ohm/(square) and we want to design a 100 ohm resistor. If
the current flowing in this resistor is 2 mA, find its minimum width. Its rated current per width is
0.5 mA/μm.
Solution
The minimum width Wmin theta can sustain 2mA is
min
2(mA) 4(μm)
0.5(mA/μm)
W = =
Taking Wmin into consideration, the width is determined as 10 mm. Thus the length should be 20 mm
to yield 100 ohm resistor.

Figure 2.1 Simulation schematic setup for impedance plot. Here log sweep is set to 30 points/decade
The simulated impedance is shown in Fig. 2.2. Using the impedance values at markers, the series
equivalent circuit values can be obtained. From the minimum value, the value of R can be obtained
and R=0.363 Ω. The following equations for C and L are written in the Display window.
Eqn C=1/(2*pi*m2*indep(m2))
Eqn L=m3/(2*pi*indep(m3))
The computed C = 9.9 pF and L=0.96 nH. The values of R, C, and L are close to those computed in
Example 2.2 but shows little differences. The error of R is mainly due to the sparse sweep points.
The differences of the other values are believed to come from different approximations in the
computation of element values.

CHAPTER 3 PROBLEMS
3.1 In Example 3.1, a traveling sine wave propagating along z direction is given by cos(
ωt–
βz). For
a constant C, if
ωt–
βz =C is chosen, what is the meaning? Also, when this constant is taken as the
peak of the sine wave, prove that its velocity is v p.
Solution
When
ωt–
βz =C is chosen, the wave propagating along z direction becomes cos(C). This means that
time and space which yields constant phase is chosen. For example, let C=0. Then it represents a
wave at its peak value. This will propagate along z direction with time, which one usually observes
the wave velocity. Thus the phase velocity is

3.6 Figure 3.4 shows a slot line measurement. Voltage standing wave minimum points are shown by
the numbers for two measurements. When the load is replaced by a short, the first minimum occurs
at 90cm. The distance dmin from the first minimum to the short is 15 cm (=90–75cm in Fig. 3.4) at a
frequency of 375 MHz. Find the load impedance.
Figure 3.4 Slot line measurements
Solution
This can be solved using Smith chart. Since VSWR=5, one can draw a circle in the Smith chart
corresponding to VSWR=5. Furthermore the half wavelength is found to be 40 cm (=75–35) from
Fig. P3.3. Thus, the wavelength is 80cm. The dmin normalized by wavelength is 0.1875 (=15/80).
Thus the load impedance ZL is found by reading the impedance at point B shown in Fig. 3.5. ZL

3,14 (ADS Problem) The standing wave can be simulated by sweeping the length of the
transmission line as shown in Fig. 3.12. Plot of mag(v1) vs l1 results in the standing wave pattern.
Also plot the standing waveform with time as a parameter. It can be found that the minimum point
does not move despite of time change, which is why it is called “standing wave.”
Figure 3.12 Standing waveform simulation.
Solution
After the simulation given in Fig. 3.12, v1 is plot for the length variable l1. Fig. 3.13 shows the
simulated standing waveform. Fig. 3.14 shows the time variation of the standing waveform. This
can be obtained using ts() function in ADS. As can be seen from Fig. 3.14, the minimum point
called “node” does not change with respect to time. This is the reason why we naming “standing
wave.”

which has a width of 50 ohm line microstrip width. Note that it can be represented by Tee
equivalent circuit because the corner is a passive circuit. Here the substrate is a 10 mil thick alumina
with
εr=9.6.
Solution
Fig. 3.15 shows the schematic setup for the simulation of the corner discontinuity. Also the
microstrip line length which has the corner discontinuity along the center line is also included for
the comparison. The variable w50 represents the 50 ohm microstrip line width which is computed
using LineCalc in ADS.

Generally, the corner discontinuity shows a shorter length than the microstrip line with the length of
the corner discontinuity along the center line. Since the corner discontinuity can be represented by a

4.12 The attenuation with an attenuator is L (L is not in decibel scale), given that its temperature is
T o, determine the noise factor of the attenuator.
Solution
When one end (source port) of the attenuator is terminated by 50 ohm termination, the impedance
seen from the other end (load port) is 50 ohm. Since the available power of a 50 ohm resistor is kTo,
the delivered power to the 50 ohm load connected to the load port is kTo.
On the other hand, the delivered power from 50 ohm termination connected to the source port of the
attenuator is kTo/L. Thus, from the definition of the noise figure

Figure 4.12 AC noise simulation to compute the short circuit noise currents
In the above equations, Prob_15b..vi.noise and Prob_15b..vo.noise represent the simulated
noise voltages in the dataset name Prob_15b. To represent the noise voltage, Ads uses the
extension .noise after the node voltage name. The division factor 1e-3 appears tocompute the
current across 1mΩ resistors. In addition, the S-parameter noise simulation for the same device is
performed. The computed two values are compared in Fig. 4.12. As can be seen in Fig. 4.12, the
exact match can be found.
