Abstract
In this paper, the design of a three-layer linear polarization converter based on substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) technology is demonstrated. The transmission-type polarization converter with dual frequency polarization conversion characteristics is realized by a square-slot sandwiched by two layers of off-center dipole-slot resonator, and its asymmetric transmission (AT) property can be obtained by rotating the upper and the lower dipole-slot resonator to form an interlaced layout. An excellent polarization conversion ratio (PCR) can be realized by integrating the traditional transmission-type polarization converter with an SIW, and its physical mechanism can be explicated by guided wave field theory. Experimental results are presented and compared with the simulation results, and they demonstrated that ultra-high PCRs of the presented polarization converter are 0.87 and 0.99 for the measurement at the working frequency of 7.34 GHz and the simulation at the working frequency of 7.6 GHz, respectively. The designed polarization converter has greatly expanded the application field of SIW technology.
