RF Designs and Simulations

The switching is required in many applications at low as well as at high frequency. RF MEMS switches are the specific micro mechanical switches that are designed to operate at RF to mm-wave frequencies. MEMS switches usages some mechanical movement to achieve a closed or open circuit in the Radio Frequency transmission lines. GaAs FET switches do not have sufficient isolations to minimize cross interference and signal jamming from channels is close proximity.  MEMS switches provide  high isolation  when open,  low insertion loss  when closed, and can be operated at low power consumption. Because of electromechanical isolation, RF circuit doesn’t leak or couple significantly to the actuation circuit. MEMS are small in size hence it occupies less space in circuit designs so that which was the most required device in the communicating world. Radio Frequency Micro Electro Mechanical Switches (RF MEMS) classification depends on the type of actuation, defl...
