Abstract :
We report on design and analysis of a 183GHz passive five times multiplier. No mechanical tuners and simple circuit topology make it easy and cheap to fabricate the five times multiplier. We design, simulate and optimize the circuit of the five times multiplier in the software of HFSS and ADS. It includes several parts like waveguide to micro-strip transition, ideal LPF, a pair of DBES105a GaAs Schottky barrier diodes and micro-strip to waveguide transition. The proper circuit design can effectively suppress the high-order harmonic waves.
