Concurrent Dualband Front-End Elements for NIVSD Sensors

In general, a microstrip transmission line (TL)–based DC bias tee network consists of a quarter-wave impedance transformer with high-characteristic impedance. Such networks work at the designed frequency and its odd harmonics. However, it is not useful in a multiband circuit where high input impedance is required at multiple uncorrelated frequencies. Hence, a concurrent dualband DC bias network is proposed which is realized using microstrip TL sections only. Figure 4.6 shows the DC bias network.

Aside from the natural-resonance frequencies, Fabry–Pérot resonance frequencies can be utilized to determine electromagnetic properties and also to detect and identify defects with materials [8–11]. These frequencies, which are named as the thickness-resonance frequencies (or half-wave window), are excited when both sides of a material are surrounded by identical media under the case that the thickness of material (L) is an integer multiple of one half-wavelength (λ) within the material at the operating frequency [12]; that is, where m is a positive integer number. Another kind of resonance, similar to the Fabry–Pérot resonance, arises when both sides of a material are surrounded by dissimilar materials under the case that L is an odd multiple of ; that is, . For example, short-circuit termination of an air-material structure is a special case of this resonance [13]. This type of resonance is also referred to as the quarter-wave impedance transformer.
