Application of Implicit Space Mapping in the Design of Hammerhead Filter in Millimeter-Wave Band

摘要

In this study, we present advances in microwave and millimeter-wave device modeling exploiting the Space Mapping (SM) technology. New SM-based modeling techniques are used that are easy to implement entirely in the Agilent ADS framework. The implicit space mapping algorithm is applied to the design of hammerhead filter in millimeter-wave band. The validity of this method is confirmed by comparison with full-wave EM simulation result and measured data. Based on the proposed method, a filter was designed and fabricated on a substrate with thickness of 0.254 mm and dielectric constant of 2.2. The experimental results show good agreement with simulated results. It is proved that the accuracy can be achieved using the implicit space mapping algorithm, and the design efficiency can be greatly improved.
