    Diseño de una antena dual gaussiana de doble profundidad de corrugación
    (2003) Ortiz Pérez de Eulate, Noelia; Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Gonzalo García, Ramón; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
    In this paper a new design of a dual-band corrugated horn antenna is presented. The design is based on a gaussian profile to allow high pattern symmetry, low-crosspolar levels and low-side-lobes over a wide frequency range. To achieve a dual-band corrugated horn antenna, dual depth corrugations were used along the whole profile. The design presents a nice far field radiation pattern, which is compatible with the frequency reuse requirements in satellite communication antennas. The horn has been designed to operate in two frequency bands between X, Ku and K bands. Simulations and measurements show pretty good radiation patterns with return loss below –20dB and crosspolar-levels below –30dB in both frequency bands.

    Alimentadores gaussianos en guía de onda rectangular
    (1999) Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Gonzalo García, Ramón; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
    A new and efficient design of a rectangular corrugated waveguide mode converter, from TE10 mode in a smooth rectangular monomode waveguide to HE11 mode in a corrugated rectangular waveguide, is proposed. The main idea is the application of Gaussian design techniques, described in the given references, previously applied in circular waveguides. By using these techniques compact and very efficient components are obtained. The obtained far field pattern is rather good as illuminator of square or rectangular parabolic reflectors, with very low sidelobes and crosspolarisation levels, avoiding the use of a rectangular to circular waveguide converter.

    Design and characterization of terahertz CORPS beam forming networks
    (Springer, 2023) Biurrun Quel, Carlos; Haddad, Thomas; Sievert, Benedikt; Kress, Robin; Weimann, Nils; Erni, Daniel; Rennings, Andreas; Stöhr, Andreas; Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
    This work reviews the design and applicability of beam-forming networks based on Coherently Radiating Periodic Structures (CORPS-BFN) at Terahertz (THz) frequency bands. These versatile networks offer two operation modes: a continuous beam steering – feeding an antenna array with a linearly progressive phase distribution – using a reduced number of phase controls; or a multi-beam operation, generating independent, overlapped beams. These networks are built upon the concatenation of power combiners/dividers (PCDs) with isolated outputs. The isolation is provided by monolithically integrated resistors, implemented with Ti/TiO thin films for the first time. In this work, a planar prototype of a (inputs/outputs) microstrip CORPS-BFN for operation in the WR3.4/WM-864 band (220–330 GHz) on a thin 50 m Indium Phosphide (InP) substrate is designed, fabricated, and characterized. The measured S-parameters show a reflection coefficient better than -15 dB and an insertion loss between 1.6 and 3.2 dB in the whole band. In addition, an isolation better than 20 dB between the input ports has been measured. An overall remarkable agreement is observed between the measurements and the simulations. Last, the applications, scalability and efficiency of this type of networks at the targeted band are discussed in detail.

    (IEEE, 1998) Gonzalo García, Ramón; Martí Canales, J.; Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
    The measurements results of a new design of corrugated horn antennas [1, 2, 3] following the gaussian expansion are presented in this paper. The performance of two corrugated horn antennas of this kind was verified in the ESTEC Compact Antenna Test Range (CATR) [4]. Very high agreement between measured and predicted results is found.

    Generación del modo HE11 a partir de una guía circular lisa monomodo
    (1996) Gonzalo García, Ramón; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
    In this paper, we present an original taper design to obtain the HE11 corrugated circular waveguide mode exciting with a pure TE11 monomode smooth circular waveguide mode. The proposed corrugated taper has a longitudinal section composed of two hyperbolic profiles in series, one concave and the other convex united at a point, such that the derivative is continuous. Superimposed there is an additional tapering of the corrugation depth that goes from l/2 at taper input to l/4 within the first hyperbola. This original synthesis procedure has been successfully tested by computational simulation. The calculation method has been validated by experimental results of other authors.

    Nuevas técnicas para el diseño de antenas de bocina corrugadas
    (2004) Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Gonzalo García, Ramón; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
    The present paper deals with the design of modern corrugated horn antennas for extremely low sidelobe level with the use of the well known corrugated Gaussian Profiled Horn Antenna (corrugated GPHA’s) to improve the radiation pattern features and reduce the antenna size. Basic design rules will be given to start with an appropriate profile which can be quickly used as input profile for modern optimization codes to improve antenna characteristics, i.e. its size.

    Reduced loss and prevention of substrate modes with a novel Coplanar Waveguide based on Gap Waveguide technology
    (MDPI, 2023) Biurrun Quel, Carlos; Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren
    The Gap Waveguide technology utilizes an Artificial Magnetic Conductor (AMC) to prevent the propagation of electromagnetic (EM) waves under certain conditions, resulting in various gap waveguide configurations. In this study, a novel combination of Gap Waveguide technology and the traditional coplanar waveguide (CPW) transmission line is introduced, analyzed, and demonstrated experimentally for the first time. This new line is referred to as GapCPW. Closed-form expressions for its characteristic impedance and effective permittivity are derived using traditional conformal mapping techniques. Eigenmode simulations using finite-element analysis are then performed to assess its low dispersion and loss characteristics. The proposed line demonstrates an effective suppression of the substrate modes in fractional bandwidths up to 90%. In addition, simulations show that a reduction of up to 20% of the dielectric loss can be achieved with respect to the traditional CPW. These features depend on the dimensions of the line. The paper concludes with the fabrication of a prototype and validation of the simulation results in the W band (75–110 GHz).

    New coplanar waveguide based on the gap waveguide technology
    (IEEE, 2021) Biurrun Quel, Carlos; Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC
    A new planar waveguide, coined Inverted coplanar gap waveguide is presented. The concept of gap waveguides and parallel plate suppression between perfect magnetic and a perfect electric conductors is applied to coplanar waveguides in order to create a low-dispersion, low-loss transmission line. The combination of an artificial magnetic conductor and channelized top cover allow the propagation of an even coplanar mode with a strong component propagating over the air while solving encapsulation matters without the use of metallic vias. The main theory behind this new concept is presented and supported by FEM simulations on a commercial software package.

    (IEEE, 2006) Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Arnaud, Eric; Gonzalo García, Ramón; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
    In this paper, high technology optimized feedhorn designs are presented. These feedhorns have been designed to improve the quite zone size and behaviour at the Compact Antenna Test Range (CATR) of the Antenna Research Team (OSA) from Limoges University XLIM laboratory. Very nice results are obtained maintaining the quite zone at its maximum size over the whole frequency range. The designed feedhorns present low crosspolar levels, high phase centre stability and they are very simple and small, resulting in a very low manufacturing cost.

    Choked-gaussian corrugated horn antenna design small global coverage horn antenna for TT&C with extremely low sidelobe level
    (2003) Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Gonzalo García, Ramón; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
    Extremely low sidelobe horn antennas are often required for the actual technology. This type of horn antennas are important to avoid interference with other systems. In this paper we describe a new design implementing a radical change in the current technology. It consists in attaching together a choked-waveguide antenna with a classical pure gaussian output corrugated horn. A really impressive radiation pattern with very low sidelobes and crosspolar levels in a very short antenna is obtained. This antenna shape was firstly presented in [1]. In this paper an improvement in size, weight, bandwidth and crosspolar level of the design is shown. This improvement has been possible due to the optimisation of the profile by means of the use of a mode matching code (mwave Wizard) instead of a time consuming finite element code.
