Problems

  1. A rectangular waveguide used for WiMax applications has a cross-section 1: 1 in £ 0 : 5 in and is ¯lled with a silicon-based nonmagnetic lossless material with ¹r=1 and ²r=12.

(a) Calculate the cuto® wavelength ¸oc and the cuto® frequency fco for the dominant, the ¯rst two higher-order TE modes and the ¯rst two higher-order TM modes. (10%)

(b) Determine the transverse-wave impedance for the dominant, the ¯rst higher-order TE and the ¯rst higher-order TM modes at f = 3: 5 GHz. How close are they to the TEM value? What will be the value of the transverse-wave impedance of the dominant mode at a dual-band short-range broadband module operating at f = 50GH z (DO NOT CALCULATE IT!!) and why? (10%)

(c) There have been three proposed frequencies for WiMax operations: 1.7 GHz, 2.5 GHz and 3. GHz. Which one(s) would operate with the best power e±ciency for this waveguide and why? (10%)

(d) After removing the side walls (short side), recalculate the cuto® frequency for the dominant and the ¯rst two-higher modes, after identifying them. (10%)

  1. A perpendicularly polarized monochromatic laser wave in air is obliquely incident upon a planar LTCC-Air interface at an incidence angle of 60o, as it is used for defect detection of 3D (multilayer) integrated ceramic 3G-telecom modules. The wave frequency is 5 THz (1 THz = 10^12 Hz), and the dielectric constant of LTCC is 5.6 (assume that LTCC is a nonmagnetic lossless ceramic material). If the electric ¯eld amplitude of the incident wave is 20 mV/m, determine:

(a) the re°ection and transmission coe±cients, (15%) and

(b) how many db's it's lower than the incident ¯eld (5%)

(c) the MAGNETIC ¯eld amplitude of the transmitted wave (15%).

(d) the angle of minimum power re°ection. Would this angle have a di®erent value if the incident wave were parallel-polarized? (10%)

  1. (a) Find the ABCD and Z matrices of an RFID whose electronics consist of a shunt open-circuit stub of length 8.85 cm built on a nonmagnetic lossless °exible organic (LCP) material with ²r = 3: 0 and Zo = 125- and a series inductor L=62.5nH, used as a resonant structure at 0.9 GHz. (10%)

(b) Is this a reciprocal and/or lossless structure and why? (10%)

(c) Give the ¿- and the ¼- equivalent circuit. (10%)

(d) What is the exact resonant frequency of this geometry? Does it need to be modi¯ed for an e®ective RFID operation? (5%)

GOOD LUCK!!!
