Abstract :
A 60 GHz frequency band planar diplexer based on Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) technology is presented in this research. The 5th order millimeter wave SIW filter is investigated first, and then the 60 GHz SIW diplexer is designed and been simulated. SIW-microstrip transitions are also included in the final design. The relative bandwidths of up and down channels are 1.67% and 1.6% at 59.8 GHz and 62.2 GHz respectively. Simulation shows good channel isolation, small return losses and moderate insertion losses in pass bands. The diplexer can be easily integrated in millimeter wave integrated circuits.
