  • Patent number: 6870438
    Abstract: A wiring board includes a dielectric substrate, a signal transmission line formed on one surface of the dielectric substrate, a grounded layer formed on the other surface of the dielectric substrate, and a connection portion for connecting portion for connecting the signal transmission line to a waveguide, the connection portion being formed on the grounded layer. The grounded layer has a slot at a position opposed to an end of the signal transmission line. The connection portion includes a first dielectric portion disposed to cover the slot of the ground layer, a second dielectric portion laminated on the first dielectric portion, and a patch conductor provided at a position opposed to said slot on an interface between the first dielectric portion and the second dielectric portion. The wiring board enables the signals to be efficiently transmitted from the signal transmission line to the waveguide with a small loss and a small reflection.

  • Patent number: 6642808
    Abstract: A high frequency package is arranged such that it comprises a dielectric substrate provided with an input terminal and an output terminal, a high frequency element mounted on the surface of the dielectric substrate, and a high frequency line formed on the dielectric substrate for connecting the high frequency element with the input terminal and with the output terminal, wherein a transmission characteristic from the input terminal to the output terminal has the property of cyclically varying in relation to frequency. The length of the high frequency line is regulated such that the frequency of signals transmitted along the high frequency line is located at a part of the cyclic variation curve of the transmission characteristic where transmittance is large. By arranging the structure in such a manner, loss of high frequency signals having frequencies of 10 GHz or more can be reduced.

  • Patent number: 6501352
    Abstract: A high frequency wiring board having a high frequency transmission line having a signal conductor line formed on the surface of a dielectric board and a grounding layer formed inside or on the reverse surface of the dielectric board parallel to the signal conductor line, and a connecting terminal portion provided at a terminal end of the high frequency transmission line and including connecting grounding conductors formed with spacing on both sides of the signal conductor line and through conductors for connecting the connecting grounding and the grounding layer. The distance between the through conductors and an end side surface of the dielectric board is not more than 0.3 times the signal wavelength, in the dielectric board, of a high frequency signal.

  • Patent number: 6356173
    Abstract: A high-frequency module in which a plurality of cavities are formed on the surface of a dielectric board, internal high-frequency signal transmission lines are connected to high-frequency devices in the cavities and are located in the cavities, the internal high-frequency signal transmission lines being electromagnetically coupled to the external high-frequency signal transmission line, and the high-frequency devices in the cavities are connected to each other relying on the electromagnetic coupling through the external line. The high-frequency module enables high-frequency signals to be transmitted among the high-frequency devices with a small loss. The module has a very simple structure, and is cheaply produced, and offers an advantage that it can be easily obtained in a small size.

  • Patent number: 6188368
    Abstract: A slot antenna comprising a dielectric substrate, a high-frequency signal transmission line formed on one surface of said dielectric substrate and having an open end, and a ground layer formed on the other surface of said dielectric substrate, said ground layer having a slot at a position opposed to the open end of said transmission line, wherein a dielectric plate for impedance matching is laminated on the surface of said ground layer on the side where said slot is formed so as to cover said slot. The slot antenna not only features a high antenna efficiency but also can be easily and cheaply produced by a layer-laminating method which is a generally employed technology for producing multi-layer wiring substrates. Besides, the slot antenna has a very simple structure which is small in size and is light in weight, and can be very well adapted to the systems that require these characteristics.
