Abstract

Substrate integrated waveguides (SIWs) are employed as an efficient low-cost wideband interconnect solution for high-speed signaling. The basic SIW data communication system includes mixers at the driver and receiver blocks in order to transmit baseband signal through the bandpass waveguide channel. Operational limitations are imposed due to limited bandwidth and non-ideal characteristics of the mixers. In this paper, an alternative technique utilizing a SIW six-port receiver is used to detect the transmitted data. The proposed system is designed for transmission of 5 Gbps QPSK data and successfully evaluated through harmonic balance and envelope circuit simulations.
