Abstract

In this article, a miniaturized resonator based on substrate integrated coaxial line technology (SICL) is presented. The SICL resonator consists of a hairpin half-wavelength open-ended coaxial line element and two symmetrical parallel coaxial feed lines. The gap between the feed lines and the hairpin element can be adjusted properly to obtain a steep phase change, which can result in a higher group delay peak and achieve a superior phase noise performance. Based on the proposed SICL resonator, an X-band oscillator has been designed and demonstrated by using low-cost printed circuit boards (PCBs). Great consistency between the measured and simulated results is verified. According to the measured results, the oscillation frequency of the SICL oscillator is 10.0625 GHz with −1.81 dBm RF output power, and the phase noise is −138.6 dBc/Hz@1 MHz. The statistic figure of merit (FOM) is −206.1 dBc/Hz@1 MHz.
