Abstract

Ths paper describes the Dual-band switch which was proposed new structure that could improved the specification of broadband and designed by the optimized structure through simulation. The Dual-band switch with 2.4[GHz]/5.8[GHz] that can apply to 802.11a/b/g system that is commercialized present was studied to get a new structure with higher power, high isolation. The transmitter of switch was designed to operate a parallel switching element with stack structure of two FET. The receiver designed to have asymmetry structure that insert series FET in addition to basic serial/parallel FET. SPDT(Single Pole Double Throw) Tx/Rx FET switch is a device that can do switching from a port of input to two port of output. The fabricated SPDT switch has the characteristic of insertion loss of a below -3[dB] form DC to 6[GHz] and the isolation of a below -30D[dB](Rx mode).

본 논문에서는 2.4[GHz]/5.8[GHz] 대역의 이중대역 스위치 설계에 대하여 논한다. 이 스위치는 TDD시스템에 적용 가능하며, 광대역 특성을 개선할 수 있는 새로운 구조를 제안하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 최적의 구조로 설계하였다. 2.4[GHz]/5.8[GHz] 이중대역 스위치는 현재 상용화되고 있는 802.11a/b/g 시스템에 응용할 수 있는 광대역, 고출력, 높은 격리도를 갖는 구조를 연구하였다. 스위치의 송신부는 2개의 FET를 스택 구조로 병렬 스위칭 소자로 동작하도록 설계하였다. 수신부는 기본적인 직/병렬 FET에 추가로 직렬 FET를 삽입한 비대칭 구조를 갖도록 수신부를 설계하였다. SPDT(Single Pole Double Throw) Tx/Rx FET 스위치는 하나의 입력에 2개의 출력으로 스위칭할 수 있는 장치이다. 이 제작된 스위치는 삽입손실 특성은 DC$\sim$6[GHz]까지 3[dB]보다 낮으며 수신경로의 격리도는 -30[dB]이하의 특성을 가지고 있다.
