Abstract

In this paper, a novel design and implementation of a dual-band directional coupler based on RF IPD(Integrated Passive Device)-on-glass technology is proposed, which can be adopted in GSM/GPRS cellular phones for closed loop power control at the output of the power amplifier. The proposed coupler has a compensation capacitor to improve the directivity, and was designed using a new diplexing structure to minimize the cross-band isolation.

본 논문은 glass 기판 위에 RE IPD(Integrated Passive Device) 기술을 이용하여 dual band 방향성 커플러의 새로운 설계와 구현을 하였으며, 이러한 구조는 전력 증폭기의 출력부에 closed loop 전력 제 어용 GSM/GPRS cellular phones에 적용할 수 있다. 커플러는 방향성 향상을 위하여 보상 capacitor를 이용하였으며, 상호 밴드의 간섭을 최소화하기 위하여 새로운 방법의 필터링 구조(diplexer)를 갖는 커플러를 구현하였다.
