Response of complementary split ring resonators in composite stratified substrate integrated waveguide

摘要

In this work, the behavior of a Complementary Split Ring Resonator (CSRR) operating within the quasi-static resonance regime and embedded in a composite stratified Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) with two different dielectric layers is analyzed. In these conditions, the propagating modes within the SIW combined with the imposed non-symmetrical structure lead to the excitation of the CSRR elements inside the SIW at difference with conventional excitation. Several cases of CSRR loaded SIW are proposed, and their electromagnetic field components as well as their frequency response are analyzed, providing insight into the CSRR resonance excitation. A test prototype has been designed, fabricated, and measured, showing a good agreement with simulation results and providing a new alternative for the implementation of compact frequency selective devices compatible with planar technology and without undesired radiation loss.
