Electromechanical and Electromagnetic Simulation of RF-MEMS Complex Networks Based on Compact Modeling Approach

Iannacci J., Faes A., Kuenzig T., Niessner M., Wachutka G., Fondazione Bruno Kessler - FBK, IT

RF-MEMS, i.e. MicroElectroMechanical-Systems for Radio Frequency applications, have been attracting the interest of the scientific community for more than one decade, thanks to their high performance and large reconfigurability. The employment of RF-MEMS based devices [...]

A MEMS-Based Wide-Band Multi-State Power Attenuator for Radio Frequency and Microwave Applications

Iannacci J., Faes A., Mastri F., Masotti D., Rizzoli V., Fondazione Bruno Kessler - FBK, IT

We propose the implementation of a widely reconfigurable broad-band power attenuator for Radio Frequency (RF) and Microwave signals, entirely based on the RF-MEMS surface micromachining technology available at FBK in Italy. The network realizes a [...]
