- This paper proposes a complete analytical model for self-assembling microwave power sensor with thermopile and curled cantilever beam. The analytical model includes an electromagnetic model, a static mechanical model, and a stationary heat transfer model. The electromagnetic model takes the S-parameter of indirect-heating thermoelectric power sensor into consideration. The static mechanical model considers the fringing fields between the curled cantilever beam and the measuring electrode as well as the initial curling induced by the stress gradient.
- The curled cantilever beam is designed to improve the dynamic range and microwave performance of the power sensor.
- Experiments is performed to validate the analytical model and demonstrate good performance of the power sensor.
This paper builds a complete analytical model for self-assembling microwave power sensor with thermopile and curled cantilever beam. The power sensor consists of a thermoelectric power sensor for low power detection from 0.1Â mW to 100Â mW and a capacitive power sensor for high power detection from 100Â mW to 800Â mW. The curled cantilever beam is designed to improve the dynamic range and microwave performance of the power sensor. The analytical model includes an electromagnetic model, a static mechanical model, and a stationary heat transfer model. The electromagnetic model takes the S-parameter of indirect-heating thermoelectric power sensor into consideration. The static mechanical model considers the fringing fields between the curled cantilever beam and the measuring electrode as well as the initial curling induced by the stress gradient. The experimental results show a good agreement with the theory and validate the effectiveness of the presented models. Furthermore, good performance of the power sensor has found. The measured return loss is lower than â25.5Â dB at 8-12Â GHz and the output of the power sensor has good linearity with the incident radio frequency power up to 600Â mW.
