CPW-FED Slot-Oscillators for Power Combining Applications Conference Paper

abstract

• We have combined integrated circuit antenna technology with microwave oscillator design to build an active slot-oscillator. The design is planar, does not require via holes and is compatible with monolithic transistor technology. The coplanar-waveguide (CPW-fed) antenna impedance is calculated using a full-wave analysis technique. Slot-oscillators were built at 7 GHz, 13 GHz and 22 GHz and the predicted oscillation frequencies agree well with experiments. The design is easily scaled to millimeter-wave frequencies and can be extended to power combining arrays.
