By using a slot-line in combination with microstrip lines, a coplanar wide-band balun is designed and fabricated. The slot-line of balun junction is compensated to be operated in C-band(4~8GHz), and therefore the results are agreement with theoritical prediction. Experimental data are given for a 3-section Chebyshev transformer-matched balun with a balanced-to-unbalanced line impedance ratio of 2 : 1. A bandwidth from 3.5GHz to 7.0GHz is obtained with V.S.W.R. of below 1.2 : 1. Maximum insertion loss is measured as 0.9dB, and the phase difference varies linearlly within 180$^{\circ}$$\pm$5$^{\circ}$.

We investigate the OFDM-based wireless LAN systems operating in the 60 GHz frequency band as part of the fourth-generation (4G) systems. The 60 GHz band is of much interest since this is the band in which a massive amount of spectral space has been allocated worldwide for dense wireless local communications. This paper gives an overview of 60 GHz band channel characteristics and an effect on phase noise. The performance of OFDM system is severely degraded by the local oscillator phase noise, which causes both common phase error and inter-carrier interference. In this paper, we apply phase noise suppression (PNS) algorithm that is easy for implementation to OFDM based 60 GHz wireless LAN system and analyze the SER performance. In case of using the PNS algorithm, SER performance is improved about 6 dB, 7.5 dB, respectively in 16, 64-QAM.

In this paper, a planar half-circle shape ultra-wideband(UWB) antenna fed by CPW is designed, fabricated and measured for UWB communications. Within the UWB band(3.1 GHz${\~}$10.6 GHz), 5.15 GHz${\~}$5.825 GHz frequency band is used by IEEE 802.1la WLAN applications. It may be necessary to notch out this band to avoid interference with IEEE 802.1la WLAN. Therefore, we have proposed three kinds of UWB antennas having a notch function, such as a rectangular slot, a hat-shaped slot a circle-shaped slot. The notch frequency of the proposed antenna can be adjusted by controlling the slot length or slot width. From the measured results, the proposed antennas show a good gain flatness except the IEEE 802.1la WLAN frequency band and have a reasonable agreement with simulated results.

In this paper, we designed a microstrip antenna for LTE / WLAN for wireless mobile communication high - speed communication network. The substrate of the proposed antenna is FR-4 (er = 4.3), the size is $20[mm]{\times}40[mm]$ and can be used in the frequency band of 2.77 [GHz] and 5 [GHz] Respectively.

The S-parameter was also found to be less than -10 [dB] (WSWR 2: 1) in the desired frequency band. The frequency bands of LTE and WLAN are widely used around the world, and the usage of the frequency is also increasing. For this reason, the dual-band antenna of LTE / WLAN is designed to help many users in a good way to use both technologies.
