Abstract
This paper presents a C-band low phase noise oscillator using small size low-profile substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) resonator for RF applications. A compact 6 GHz SIW resonator size is possible by introducing λ <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">g</sub> /4 resonating slots. A size reduction of 29.87% is achieved while maintaining the quality factor. Also, the impedance of the SIW resonator is controlled by appropriate selection of the location of these introduced slots; which advantages for the conjugate matching between SIW resonator and the active device and removes the need of matching circuit between them. Then, a C-band oscillator prototype utilizing the proposed compact SIW resonator is designed, fabricated and measured. The measured results shows a phase noise of -122.11 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset with an output power of -4.2 dBm at 5.96 GHz oscillation frequency.
