60-GHz Half-Mode Substrate-Integrated Waveguide Bandpass Filter in 0.15-μm GaAs Technology

A compact 60-GHz on-chip bandpass filter (BPF) is presented using gallium arsenide (GaAs) technology. The miniaturization is achieved by the half-mode substrate-integrated waveguide (HMSIW) structure. Finally, a prototype of the BPF is fabricated and tested to validate the proposed idea, whose simul...

520 3 |a A compact 60-GHz on-chip bandpass filter (BPF) is presented using gallium arsenide (GaAs) technology. The miniaturization is achieved by the half-mode substrate-integrated waveguide (HMSIW) structure. Finally, a prototype of the BPF is fabricated and tested to validate the proposed idea, whose simulated and measured results are in good agreement. The measurements show that it has a center frequency at 58.6 GHz with a bandwidth of 17.9%, and the minimum insertion loss within the passband is 1.2 dB. The chip, excluding the feedings, is only about 0.38 (Formula presented.) × 0.58 (Formula presented.), where (Formula presented.) is the guided wavelength at the center frequency.
