摘要:
An amplitude modulator in which modulator characteristics can be tuned is provided. In an amplitude modulator, between two high frequency transmission lines for transmitting high frequency signals, is provided a PIN diode which is a high frequency modulating element that modulates a high frequency signal input from one of the high frequency transmission lines and outputs the high frequency signal to an output terminal of the other of the high frequency transmission lines. A bias supply circuit includes a trimmable chip resistor which is a variable resistor for adjusting a bias current flowing through the PIN diode. By adjusting a resistance value, the bias current flowing through the PIN diode is controlled, so that it is possible to tune the modulator characteristics.

A millimeter-wave transmitter-receiver uses an NRD guide as a fundamental configuration and includes a millimeter-wave signal oscillator, a pulse modulator, a circulator, an antenna and a mixer. In the millimeter-wave transmitter-receiver, a line length of a third dielectric guide is set so that δ=±π in which δ is a phase difference at a center frequency between a portion of a transmission millimeter-wave signal, which is reflected via a third dielectric guide on the leading end portion of the third dielectric guide and returned to leak to a third connecting portion of the circulator, and another portion of the millimeter-wave signal, which leaks from a first connecting portion to the third connecting portion of the circulator. It is possible to reduce the change in the mixer output and enhance the millimeter-wave transmission/reception performance.

A NRD guide includes a pair of parallel plate conductors opposed to each other at a spacing equal to or shorter than half the wavelength of a high-frequency signal to be transmitted and having opposing inner surfaces whose arithmetic average roughness Ra satisfies 0.1 &mgr;m≦Ra≦50 &mgr;m, and a dielectric strip arranged between the pair of parallel plate conductors and held in contact with the respective inner surfaces of the parallel plate conductors. The dielectric strip is strongly secured to the inner surfaces to exhibit an excellent durability. The transmission loss of the high-frequency signal can be effectively suppressed.

It is an object of the invention to provide a connection structure for connecting the dielectric strip of an NRD guide with a metal waveguide, in which the conversion loss (connection loss) for high-frequency signals is reduced, and in which the NRD guide as well as the millimeter wave integrated circuit in which the NRD guide is incorporated can be made smaller. A non-radiative dielectric waveguide is made by arranging a dielectric strip for propagating high-frequency signals between parallel planar conductors arranged at a spacing of not more than half the wavelength of a high-frequency signal, a conductive member being arranged at an end face of a terminal end of the dielectric strip. An aperture is formed in at least one of the parallel planar conductors at a location where the electrical field of an LSM mode stationary wave propagating along the dielectric strip becomes largest. An open terminal end of a metal waveguide is connected to this aperture.

A high-frequency module includes a high-frequency component including a high-frequency circuit, a conductor plate including a slot, a first conductive wire, and two second conductive wires. The high-frequency component includes a signal terminal and two reference potential terminals. The signal terminal is used for at least one of input and output of a high-frequency signal. The two reference potential terminals are connected to a reference potential. The first conductive wire is connected to the signal terminal in terms of high-frequency. The first conductive wire crosses over above the slot. The two second conductive wires are connected to the two reference potential terminals in terms of high-frequency. The two second conductive wires are so disposed along the first conductive wire and do not cross over the slot. The first conductive wire and the two second conductive wires form a pair and are electromagnetically coupled to the slot.

There are provided a matching circuit which is less prone to impedance mismatch even with variations in pattern dimension, and a wiring board, and also a transmitter, a receiver, a transceiver, and a radar apparatus that succeed in offering stable characteristics with the installation of the matching circuit. Characteristic impedance of a first transmission line including a connection portion is varied between a reflection source including a stub portion and a bonding wire serving as a load. Impedance variation is achieved by varying a distance from the connection portion to a back conductor layer coupled thereto with respect to a distance from the stub portion and a transmission line portion to an inner conductor layer coupled to them.
