In this article, we designed a novel monolithic integrated optical transceiver based on the ring resonator structure on semi-insulating InP substrate at 1.55 μm wavelength. To separate the incoming continuous (λ2) and modulated (λ1) optical waves from the network, an optical ring resonator is utilized. The ring resonator has the p-i-n layer stack that also detects the incoming modulated optical wave (λ1). The continuous optical wave (λ2) is guided to the ring-resonator based modulator where it is modulated and finally directed toward a pair of ring resonator to reflected back to the network. Channel spacing between λ1 and λ2 is 200 GHz (1.6 nm) at wavelength ranges of 1520 to 1570 nm. This transceiver can illustrate a 40 GHz bandwidth.

In this paper a novel compact microstrip coupler using T-shaped and stepped impedance resonators is proposed, simulated and fabricated. In the proposed structure long quadrature wavelength lines are replaced with small resonators, which results in size reduction and harmonics suppression. The proposed coupler correctly works at 1 GHz and suppresses 2nd up to 7th unwanted harmonics. Moreover the designed coupler reduces the circuit size more than 65% compared to the conventional coupler.

In this paper, a compact wideband microwave filter in X band using substrate integrated waveguide technology is designed, simulated and implemented. At first, the structure of hexagonal and semi-hexagonal microwave resonators is studied and their resonate modes, resonance frequencies and field distribution inside these resonators are investigated. Then, a second order Chebyshev filter is designed by coupling matrix of two semi-hexagonal cavities with center frequency of 10 GHz and fractional bandwidth of 20%. The first designed filter based on theoretical modeling is simulated by a full wave simulator and the geometrical parameters of the structure are adjusted for the required response. A prototype of the designed filter is implemented by TLY031 substrate and its characteristics are successfully measured. The results show that the measured results agree well with those obtained by simulation. The center frequency of the implemented filter is 8.7 GHz and it provides 27.3% bandwidth, with maximum insertion loss of 2.1 dB.
