Abiotic and biotic stresses have been a serious threat to crop growth and productivity in the agricultural system. In this study, four strains (HS1, H30-3, KJ40, and BC42), which have biological activities related to disease suppression or alleviation of salinity and drought stresses, were tested for broad-spectrum biocontrol activity against anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum orbiculare, a bacterial fruit blotch caused by Acidovorax citrulli, and Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum in cucumber plants. As a result of test, when the four strains were drenched into the soil, anthracnose in cucumber leaves significantly decrease; strain KJ40 suppressed disease incidence by A. citrulli; strain BC42 significantly reduced bacterial fruit blotch and Fusarium wilt compared to control. Therefore, strain KJ40 could be a biocontrol candidate for controlling anthracnose through induced systemic resistance and the disease caused by A. citrulli as well as alleviating drought stress; strain BC42 has broad-spectrum biocontrol activity against anthracnose, Fusarium wilt, and bacterial fruit blotch.

In this paper, a frequency tripler has been designed with 100mW medium-power using P-HEMT. It is designed to obtain 7.2 GHz frequency at the output that is an integer multiple of 2.4 GHz input frequency by using nonlinear device that produces 3rd harmonic. The frequency tripler is designed by using load-pull simulation. To suppress the 2nd and fundamental, notch filter is used for the frequency tripler. The tripler is designed to obtain about 21dBm output power with 15 dBm input, i.e., 6 dB conversion gain and the suppression of 20 dBc at fundamental, and 30 dBc at the second harmonics.

This paper has presented a low phase noise oscillator using a square open loop with microstrip structure. A square open loop resonator has a large coupling coefficient value, which makes a high Q value, and has reduced phase noise.

In fabricated linear power amplifier(LPA), the third-order inter-modulation distortion(IMD) for main amplifier alone is 10.61dBc, and the IMD for LPA with predistorter and feedforward loop combined is 32.50dBc. Therefore, the IMD characteristic results an improvement of approximately 22dB. The main amplifier efficiency with single tone input is close to 30%, and the efficiency of the overall LPA with predistorter is 27.4% and predicted feedforward loop efficiency without predistorter is about 20%. Therefore, LPA with predistorter and feedforward loop combined is improved by 7.4%.

최근 Wireless Local Area Network(WLAN), Wide-band Code Division Multiple Access(WCDMA), CDMA2000, Bluetooth 등 다양한 모바일 통신 시스템에 대한 수요가 증가하고 있다. 이와 같은 모바일 통신 시스템에는 70dB이상의 SFDR(Spurious Free Dynamic Range)을 가진 ADC(Analog-to-Digital Converter)가 사용된다. 본 논문에서는 모바일 통신 시스템을 위한 SFDR 70dBc의 성능을 제공하는 10비트, 100Msps 파이프라인 ADC를 제안한다. 제안한 ADC는 요구되는 해상도 및 속도 사양을 만족시키기 위해 3단 파이프라인 구조를 채택하였으며, 입력단 SHA(Sample and Hold)회로에는 Nyquist 입력에서도 10비트 이상의 정확도로 신호를 샘플링하기 위해 부트스트래핑 기법 기반의 샘플링 스위치를 적용하였다. residue amplifier 회로에는 전력을 줄이기 위해 8배 residue amplifier 대신 3개의 2배 ressidue amplifier를 사용하였다. ADC의 높은 사양을 만족시키기 위해서는 높은 이득을 가지는 op-amp가 필수적이다. 제안한 ADC 는 0.18um CMOS 공정으로 설계되었으며, 100Msps의 동작 속도에서 70dBc 수준의 SFDR과 60dB 수준의 SNDR(Signal to Noise and Distortion Ratio)을 보여준다.

In this paper, The method to improve the mass production method of the radar sensor is suggested by using the temperature compensation circuit which is composed with the thermister. The mass production became easier by decreasing the adjustment time for the exact oscillation frequency with the temperature compensation circuit that can support the proper gate bias voltage for the FET after the dielectric resonator is removed from the DRO(Dielectric Resonator Oscillator) of the radar sensor. Radar sensor with the proposed method has 15.67MHz oscillator frequency variation in the temperature range of $-20^{\circ}C-+55^{\circ}C$, 0.65dB magnitude variation, -105.47dBc phase noise characteristics at 1MHz which are better or similar temperature characteristics with the DRO whose oscillator frequency variation is 25MHz, magnitude variation is 0.42dB and phase noise is -107.40dBc in the same temperature range.

This paper presents a new predistortion method which injects the 2nd low-frequency intermodulation signal of RF signals into the input bias line of the amplifier. New 2nd intermodulation signal extraction circuit is also proposed. We have shown that this method can suppress the 3rd IM apparently and sometimes do the 5th IM, through mathematical analysis, then confirmed it with simulation and verified it on the desk test. When the input signal CDMA IS-95 lFA is applied, measured ACPR improvements are 25 dBc, 22.5 dBc, and 6 dBc at 0.885 MHz, l.25 MHz and 2.25 MHz offset respectively. Also, when applying the CDMA IS-95 3FA, the measured ACPR improvement is 20 dBc at 0.885 MHz offset.
