Abstract

This article presents the design and analysis of an air-filled substrate integrated gap waveguide (ASIGW) resonator. The electromagnetic field of each resonant mode in the resonator is studied by theoretical modeling and EM simulation. Besides, the relationship between the dimensions and Qu is analyzed and the Qu of the resonator can be as high as 2080 at Ku band. Compared with conventional rectangular waveguide resonator and gap waveguide (GW) resonator, the proposed ASIGW resonator can be fabricated more easily. Compared with the substrate integrated waveguide resonator, the ASIGW resonator is more tolerant with dimensional errors and with less degenerate modes. As an example, a fifth-order band-pass filter based on the ASIGW resonators is presented to verify the previous conclusions.
