In the paper, we introduce a textile-integrated waveguide (TIW) based on a novel artificial magnetic conductor (AMC), which consists of hexagonal elements. Thanks to the hexagonal shape of AMC elements, general TIW components (power-dividers, waveguide bends, etc.) can be simply created. Since AMC replaces side walls of TIW, complicated manufacturing of vias can be eliminated. Due to the complex geometry of TIW, simulation of realistic models is not trivial. Attention is therefore turned to the combination of several computer-oriented approaches (dispersive analysis, equivalent circuits, full wave models) to model AMC structures efficiently. Outputs of simulations are compared with measurements of components fabricated from self-adhesive copper foil fixed to a three-dimensional (3D) knitted substrate. Experiments show that simulations and measurements are in an acceptable agreement.

基于人造磁导体的纺织集成微波元件

在本文中,我们介绍了一种基于新型人造磁导体 (AMC) 的织物集成波导 (TIW),该波导由六边形元素组成。由于 AMC 元件的六边形形状,可以简单地创建通用 TIW 组件(功率分配器、波导弯曲等)。由于 AMC 取代了 TIW 的侧壁,因此可以消除过孔的复杂制造。由于 TIW 的几何结构复杂,真实模型的模拟并非易事。因此,注意力转向了几种面向计算机的方法(色散分析、等效电路、全波模型)的组合,以有效地对 AMC 结构进行建模。将模拟输出与由固定在 3D (3D) 针织基材上的自粘铜箔制成的组件的测量结果进行比较。
