Abstract
AbstractIn this study, we investigate measurement of the magnetic permeability in a ferrite core at RF frequencies when bias current is superimposed on an RF signal with a view to adaptively controlling performance of RF transformers using ferrite cores. A measurement arrangement used comprises a short microstrip line (MSL) circuit including a coaxial conductor (CC) structure consisting of an electrically grounded metal pipe, a center conductor and a sample between them. A bias tee network is incorporated into this MSL-CC circuit in order to superimpose direct current on an RF signal. Using this arrangement, a dependence of permeability on an amplitude of superimposed bias current was measured at frequencies of 10 MHz to 500 MHz. Reliability of the measurement results is discussed based on several experimental data, implying that the method has an accuracy less than 10% at most of the above frequencies.
