Definitions
- the present invention relates to a millimeter wave ASK (Amplitude Shift
- the present invention provides a method to improve the modulation characteristic in the 60GHz range by a structure having a predetermined air gap in between the termination part of an NRD Guide (3) and a diode mount (6) on which a Schottky (14) diode is mounted, intending to improve the receive sensitivity at the receiver irrespective of the signal attenuation or noise.
- the preferred embodiment of the present invention concerns the 60GHz range. However, the present invention may be implemented in other frequency ranges.

- Figure 6 is a graph that illustrates the result of return loss measurement depending on the thickness of the high permittivity sheet (5) inserted in the front of the diode mount, when the air gap is 0.5mm and the thickness of the front Teflon (4) is 1.5mm in the first preferred embodiment.
- Figure 7 is a graph that illustrates the result of return loss measurement depending on the thickness of the front Teflon (4) inserted in the front of the diode mount, when the air gap is 0.5mm and the thickness of high permittivity sheet (5) is 0.18mm in the first preferred embodiment.
- Figure 8 is a graph that illustrates the change of frequency depending on the thickness of the high permittivity sheet (5) inserted in the front of the diode mount, when the air gap is 1mm and 0.5mm and the thickness of the front Teflon (4) is 1.5mm in the first preferred embodiment.

- Schottky Barrier Diode (referred to as the Schottky Diode in the present invention)
- the first preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises: (in the order set forth herein) an NRD guide (3) which is a passage of wave; air gap between the NRD Guide (3) and the front Teflon (4); the front Teflon (4); a high permittivity sheet (5); a diode mount (6); and the rear Teflon (7).
- Parameters that control the difference in the output of the frequency in the ASK modulator and the reflected output in the first preferred embodiment are the air gap, the front Teflon (4), the high permittivity sheet (5) and the rear Teflon (7). These parameters, when appropriately adjusted, may cause the desired difference in the frequency and the reflected output to be obtained in the present invention.
- the second preferred embodiment of the present invention is comprised, without the air gap between a diode mount (17) and an NRD Guide (16) which is a passage of wave, by inserting a high permittivity sheet for the impedance matching with the NRD Guide (16) and by inserting the rear Teflon (18).
- the gap between the upper and lower conducting plates (1, 2) of the ASK modulator of the present invention is 2.25mm because the gap between the upper and lower conducting plates must be not greater than a half wavelength according to the NRD Guide theory.
- the width of the NRD Guide is 2.5mm.
- a Schottky diode (14) is loaded on a metal thin film in the choke shape on a dielectric substrate (13) that has the thickness of 0.3mm and the permittivity of 2.6 as illustrated in Figure 4.
- the part of the metal thin film (12) where the Schottky diode is loaded may be considered to be composed of two antennas.
- the Schottky diode (14) is forward biased, two antennas are connected and absorb the incident wave.
- the Schottky diode (14) is reverse biased, two antennas are separated and reflect the incident wave.
- the Schottky diode(14) is forward biased, the incident wave entering the diode mount (6) is absorbed and if the Schottky diode is reverse biased, the incident wave entering the diode mount (6) is reflected.
- the output of millimeter wave that is incident and then reflected may be modulated by controlling the degree of absorption.
- the difference between the reflected outputs was feeble.
- the present invention comprises the air gap and uses the front Teflon (4) and the high permittivity sheet (5).
- Figure 5 illustrates the return loss depending on the thickness of the high permittivity sheet when the Schottky diode is forward or reverse biased.
- the width of the air gap is 1mm and the length of the front Teflon (4) and of the rear Teflon (7) is 1.5mm.
- the difference between reflected outputs is at least 30dB.
- the antenna of the diode mount (6) on which non-biased Schottky diode (14) is mounted reflects 500mW which is attenuated from the incident wave by 30dB.
- the Schottky diode (14) is forward biased, the incident wave is absored and the reflected output becomes lmW.
- Figure 6 illustrates the return loss depending on the thickness of the high permittivity sheet, when the width of air gap is 0.5mm and the rest of the conditions are the same as those in Figure 5.
- Figure 7 illustrates return loss depending on the thickness of the front Teflon when the high permittivity sheet is 0.18mm thick, the air gap is 0.5mm wide and the rear Teflon is 1.5mm thick.
- the maximum output difference of the reflected wave depending on the bias applied to the Schottky diode (14) is obtained when the front Teflon is 1.3mm thick and such maximum difference is about 32dB.
- Figure 8 and Figure 9 illustrate how the usable frequency range may be chosen corresponding to the thickness of the high permittivity sheet (5) and the front Teflon (4).
- Figure 8 illustrates the change of frequency depending on the thickness of the high permittivity sheet (5)
- Figure 9 illustrates the change of frequency depending on the thickness of the front Teflon (4). (Second preferred embodiment)
- Figure 10 Figure 11 and Figure 12 illustrate a perspective view, a top view and a cross sectional view of an ASK modulator according to the second preferred embodiment of the present invention wherein the air gap does not exist.
- the top view in Figure 11 and the cross sectional view in Figure 12 include a schematic diagram of incident wave and reflected wave.
- Figure 13 illustrates the change of output according to ON/OFF of bias corresponding to the thickness of the high permittivity sheet (19) inserted in between the NRD Guide (16) and the diode Mount (17) for the impedance matching.
- the front Teflon (4), the high permittivity sheet (5), the diode mount (6) and the rear Teflon (7) are mounted with a certain air gap from the termination part of the NRD Guide, showing that the modulation ratio of millimeter waves may be improved.
- the modulation ratio and the usable frequency range may be adjusted corresponding to the width of air gap, the thickness of the front Teflon (4) and the thickness of the high permittivity sheet. Because the air gap does not exist between the NRD Guide (16) and the diode mount (17) in the second preferred embodiment of the present invention, the characteristics of the reflection coefficient are not as good as those of the first preferred embodiment. However, in the second preferred embodiment, the modulation may be performed with good quality through a broader band.
