Title: | Micromachined tunable filters using MEMS switches and electromagnetic bandgap structures | Authors: | Muhammad Faeyz Karim | Keywords: | DRNTU::Engineering::Electrical and electronic engineering::Microelectromechanical systems | Issue Date: | 2008 | Source: | Muhammad, F. K. (2008). Micromachined tunable filters using MEMS switches and electromagnetic bandgap structures. Doctoral thesis, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. | Abstract: | Wireless communication is showing an explosive growth of emerging consumer military applications of radio frequency (RF), microwave, and millimeter-wave circuits and systems. Future handheld devices, ground comunications systems as well as communications satellites necessitate the use of highly integrated and reconfigurable RF front-ends, featuring small size, low weight, high performance and low cost. Continuing chip scaling has contributed to the extent that chip-off bulky passive RF coponents, like high-Q inductors, ceramics and SAW filters, varactors diodes and discrete PIN diode switches applications have become limiting. micro-machining or microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology is now rapidly emerging as an enabling technology to yield a new generation of high-performance RF-MEMS devies to replace these off-chip passives components in wireless comunication sub-systems. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/41452 | DOI: | 10.32657/10356/41452 | Schools: | School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering | Research Centres: | Photonics Research Centre | Fulltext Permission: | open | Fulltext Availability: | With Fulltext |
