Ka Band Elliptical Mems Switch With Low Actuation Voltage

The elliptical structure for the micro electromechanical switches with low actuation voltageis proposed to work at the ka band . this switch will then be analyzed to extract its parameterssuch as insertion loss, return loss and deformation posture . the effect of the actuationvoltage on the deformation of the bridge will then be analyzed and the results would becompared with other common bridges. it will be shown that the bias voltage of these kinds ofswitches is lower than its other counterparts. this switch may be used as a low loss andeffective element for much complicated systems such as distributed phase shifters and phased array applications.
