In this paper, the broadband microstrip antenna with small size, thin-profile, conformability and ease of manufacture is proposed for providing PCS(down link: 1.75GHz∼1.78GHz, up link: 1.84GHz∼1.87GHz) '||'&'||' IMT-2000(down link: 1.92GHz∼1.98GHz, up link: 2.11GHz∼2.17GHz) services simultaneously. By using double U-slots and matching stub, the bandwidth and operating performance of printed antenna was significantly improved, with need for a complex fabrication procedure. We have also studied the various parameters of the U-slot$_2$for the performances of the antenna. Impedance bandwidth of the wideband microstrip antenna with the double U-slots is about 30.45% (VSWR<2)

In this paper, the multi-band antenna with CPWG(Coplanar Waveguide with Ground) feed for telematics mobile devices is designed and fabricated. The proposed antenna improves the return loss characteristic by using open-circuited stub matching and rectangular slot in the radiation patch. In addition, CPWG structure makes up for the drawback of the CPW which is variation of impedance matching according to the gap variation of the feed line and the ground. The fabricated antenna has 1.4GHz ($1.43GHz{\sim}2.83GHz$, 65%) band width on -10dB (VSWR<2) and the maximum gains are 0.8dBi, 1.34dBi, 2.41dBi, 2.53dBi, 2.6dBi and 1.51dBi on each resonant frequency that are GPS $(1.564GHz{\sim}1.585GHz)$, PCS/DCS $(1.710GHz{\sim}1.984GHz)$, WCDMA $(2.170GHz{\sim}2300GHz)$, Bluetooth/Wi-Fi/WLAN $(2.4GHz{\sim}2.483GHz)$, WiBro $(2.3GHz{\sim}2.4GHz)$, SDMB $(2.605GHz{\sim}2.655GHz)$.

In this paper, modified spiral monopole printed antenna for dual band operation in GPS(1.57~1.577 GHz) and WiBro(2.3~2.4 GHz), WLAN(2.4~2.48 GHz) is proposed. To control the frequency ratio of the antenna for dual band operation freely, distance between inner lines of the spiral is diversified by using the different current distribution between basic resonance frequency of spiral monopole antenna and harmonic resonance frequency$(3\lambda_H/4)$. And also the branch line is inserted.

CMOS LC VCO for tri-bind wireless LAN applications was designed in 1.8V 0.18$\mu$m CMOS process. PMOS transistors were chosen for VCO core to reduce flicker noise. The possible operation was verified for 5.8GHz band (5.725$\~$5.825GHz), 5.2GHz band (5.150$\~$5.325GHz), and 2.4GHz band (2.412$\~$2.484GHz) using the switchable L-C resonators. To linearize its frequency-voltage gain (Kvco), optimized multiple MOS varactor biasing technique was used for capacitance linearization and PLL stability improvement. VCO core consumed 2mA current and $570{\mu}m{\times}600{\mu}m$ die area. The phase noise was lower than -110dBc/Hz at 1MHz offset for tri-band frequencies.

This paper presents a new switchable dual mode VCO(Voltage-Controlled Oscillator). The VCO is efficient in dual mode operation and has self-bias adjustment based on the operation frequencies of 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. The switching is done using MOS transistors and tuning is done using MOS varactors. It is implemented using TSMC 0.18${\mu}$m CMOS technology. It is powered by 1.8V supply. The measured results showed that the overall tuning range is approximately 13% at 5 GHz and 8% at 2.4 GHz. The measured phase noise is approximately -102 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset for 5 GHz and -89 dBc/Hz at 600kHz offset for 2.4 GHz. The VCO showed tail currents of 2mA in 5GHz mode and 2.5mA in 2.4GHz mode from a 1.8 V supply, respectively.
