The -line and -line sections of conventional rat-race coupler can be replaced with electric and magnetic coupling between resonators due to the opposite phase responses of electric and magnetic coupling. Therefore, the conventional rat-race coupler can be transformed into a coupled-resonator network. As a result of the coupled-resonator configuration, power transmission mainly occurs at the common resonant frequencies of the resonators. Therefore, bandpass response can be achieved in this topology. On the other hand, the dimension of coupler can be reduced as the size of resonator becomes smaller. or miniaturization, a rat-race coupler with meandered quarter-wavelength resonators is proposed in this thesis. The implemented coupler only occupies 7% circuit size of the conventional one. Furthermore, to enhance stopband performance, compact net-type resonator with controllable harmonics is introduced. By utilizing compact net-type resonators, the proposed rat-race coupler occupies 16.8% circuit size of the conventional design, while the rejection level in the stopband is better than 30dB up to 4.3f0.Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Research Motivation 1.2 Literature Survey 1.3 Contributions 4.4 Organization of the Thesis 4hapter 2 Basic Theory of Coupled Resonator Circuit 7.1 Basic Theory of Coupling 7.1.1 Electric Coupling 7.1.2 Magnetic Coupling 9.1.3 Mixed Coupling 11.2 Basic Theory of External Quality Factor 12.3 Immittance Inverters 14.4 Equivalent Coupled Resonator Circuit of Rat-Race Coupler 16hapter 3 Analysis of Stepped-Impedance Resonators 29.1 Resonant Conditions 29.2 Characteristics of SIRs 31.3 Quarter-Wavelength SIRs 34.4 Net-Type Resonators 36hapter 4 Design of Compact Rat-Race Couplers with Coupled Resonators 39.1 Procedures of Designing a Rat-Race Coupler with Coupled Resonators 39.2 Coupler Design with Half-Wavelength Resonators 41.3 Coupler Design with Quarter-Wavelength Resonators 52.4 Coupler Design with Net-Type Resonators-1 63.5 Coupler Design with Net-Type Resonators-2 76.6 Discussions and Comparisons of the Designed Couplers 87.6.1 Discussions 87.6.2 Comparisons 92hapter 5 Conclusions 95eferences 971281360 bytesapplication/pdfen-US環形耦合器共振器步階式阻抗共振器小型化rat-race couplerresonatorstepped-impedance resonatorcompactthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/188280/1/ntu-98-R96942011-1.pdf
