  • LUMPED ELEMENT FREQUENCY SELECTIVE LIMITERS
    Publication number: 20150365063
    Abstract: A lumped element frequency selective limiter device and corresponding method for the design is provided, including a variety of LE-FSL device structures and systems. The devices can utilize ferrite-based materials in a lumped element inductor operable at and above 1 GHz. The methods and systems can utilize devices having cascaded configurations of lumped elements to improve operating performance the devices.

  • Antenna module having reduced size, high gain, and increased power efficiency
    Patent number: 8395552
    Abstract: A broadband integrated circulator antenna (BICA) module for receiving and transmitting signals with high efficiency and high gain. The BICA can have a bandwidth of over 70% of a radar band and can operate in frequencies from UHF to S-band and above. The BICA has a stack configuration that includes a low profile antenna, a reflecting layer or a metamaterial substrate layer, and a circulator. The circulator is placed proximal to antenna, which greatly reduces the size of the BICA. The circulator can be a stripline Y-junction ferrite circulator and the antenna can be a coaxial center fed bow-tie antenna. The reflecting layer or metamaterial substrate layer can comprise electronic bandgap metamaterial and a high permeability ferrite substrate. The high permeability ferrite substrate can be cobalt substituted Z-type barium hexaferrite.
