초록

나노 통신 시스템 기술은 통신기술과 나노기술의 융합 분야로서 밀리미터 수준의 통신 모듈 크기에 머물고 있는 현 기술수준을 뛰어넘어 수백 나노미터에서 수십 마이크로미터 이하 단위의 극소형 무선통신 시스템 구현을 가능케 하는 미래 핵심 기술 분야이다. 특히, 최근 제안된 탄소나노튜브의 전기적/기계적 속성을 활용한 신규 극소형 나노 무선 통신시스템 기술은 기존 송수신 구조를 단순히 소형화하는 것이 아니라 구조 자체를 바꾸는 새로운 접근 방식을 제시하고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 탄소나노튜브(carbon nanotube, CNT)를 활용한 극소형 나노 무선 송수신기 실현 관점에서의 연구현황을 살펴보고 나노 기술과 통신 기술의 융합을 위한 주요 핵심 연구이슈를 제시한다.

Nano communication system technologies are future core technologies that facilitate the implementation of tiny wireless communication systems with sizes in the range of hundreds of nanometers to tens of micrometers, which cannot be implemented by current wireless communication system technologies. In particular, novel nano communication system technology, which is based on electrical and mechanical resonance characteristics of carbon nanotube(: CNT), does not simply miniaturize system modules, but suggests a new approach that changes system architectures. Therefore, this paper surveys the state of the art on CNT-based nano communication technologies in aspects of system implementation, and proposes important research issues for convergence of nano and communication technologies.
