In this paper, we designed and fabricated the multi band Transceiver Assembly(TCA) for the Multi Channel Synthetic Aperture Radar(MCSAR) containing C-band, X-band, Ku-band and we researched to verify electrical performance of TCA. The transceiver consists of transmitters, receivers, signal selection modules for each band, and stability oscillator, frequency synthesizer, controller, power distributor. The transceiver has a receive path selection and bandwidth selection functions in accordance with the operating mode. And the transceiver can transmit and receive all three bands simultaneously, each band has a bandwidth of up to 300 MHz. Final transmission output of transceiver for each band is over 20 dBm to be suitable for driving the T/R module. Receiver bandwidth is selected according to the required function and receiver gain has approximately C-band 52 dB, X-band 50 dB, Ku-band 60 dB, the maximum noise figure of Ku-band V polarization is 4.28 dB in the whole band H, V polarization. As a result of the electrical performance test, a multi-band TCA is satisfied the property requirements of the MCSAR.

다양한 형태의 서비스에 대한 수요가 급증하면서 한정된 궤도와 주파수를 이용한 위성통신기술에 대한 효율적인 주파수 활용기술과 새로운 서비스의 개발이 필요하게 되었다. 위성통신시스템의 개발초기에 가장 널리 사용되었던 C대역은 거의 포화상태에 이르렀고, Ku대역도 역시 머지않아 포화상태에 이를 전망이다. 기존의 위성시스템은 주로 방송이나 기업간 사설데이타등의 서비스를 공급해왔는데, 최근에는 개인사용자를 위한 고속 대용량 데이터, 영상, 음성등의 멀티미디어 통신서비스의 공급의 필요가 대두되면서, 광대역통신을 할 수 있는 Ka대역을 이용한 위성통신시스템의 개발이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 서론부에서는 위성통신 주파수의 C대역, Ku대역, Ka대역별 이용현황이 간략히 소개되고, II장에서는 Ka대역의 전파특징에 대하여, III장에서는 Ka대역의 위성시스템 활용기술 및 서비스 발전방향에 관한 각국의 현황을 파악하고, IV장 결론에서는 국내 위성서비스를 위한 연구활동의 발전방향에 관한 의견을 제시하였다.

In this paper, dual-band digital codec for UHF(Ultra High Frequency) and MW(Micro Wave) is proposed for an RFID reader system. Most RFID systems have been supported only one protocol. But, There are many protocols of each bandwidth. Especially, UHF bandwidth which is widely used on the globe consists of A,B,C type, and more standards will be established. Recently, Since an interest about mobile RFID system is increasing, the RFID system with more than one protocol will be need. Therefore, this paper suggests a dual-band digital codec with UHF and MW bands for an RFID reader system. Standards used in this system are 18000-6C and 18000-4 standards. The digital codec is synthesize by the Quartus II compiler. Target device is EPC20Q240C8 which is family of CycloneII. Main Clock is 19.2MHz and elements of FPGA which is used for the system is 18,752.

A low cost solution employing harmonic oscillation to the frequency synthesizer at 5.8 ㎓ is proposed. The proposed frequency synthesizer is composed of 2.9 ㎓ PLL chip, 2.9 ㎓ oscillator, and 5.8 ㎓ buffer amplifier The measured data shows a frequency Outing range of 290 ㎒, ranging from 5.65 to 5.94 ㎓ about 0.5 ㏈m of output power, and a phase noise of -107.67 ㏈c/㎐ at the 100 ㎑ offset frequency. All spurious signals including fundamental oscillation power(2.9 ㎓) are suppressed at least 15 ㏈c than the desired second harmonic signal.

BN ceramics with 0.07wt% $V_{2}O_{5}$ and 0.03wt% CuO(BNC3V7) sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ where it is possible for these to be co-fired with Ag electrode. Dielectricconstant of 44.3, TCF of 22 ppm$/^{\circ}C$ and $Qxf_{o}$ value of 22,000 GHz can be obtained from BNC3V7, multilayer type band pass filters using tapped method and conventional method were designed for PCS (Personal Communication System) applications. Tapped method by adopting input/output-tapping scheme the chip filter stucture becomes simpler and needs fewer layers than that using the conventional input/output-coupling scheme. A multilayer type band pass filter fabricated by screen-printing with silver electrode after tape casting. The simulated characteristics of the fabricated filters sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ were compared with the designed ones. Even though the centered frequencies of tapped and conventional band pass chaip filters were measured to shift about 90MHz downward, the band pass characteristics of both filters were similar that of designed ones. The spuriousresonance characteristic of tapped pass chip filter was better than that of conventional chip filer.

An L-band single side band(SSB) mixer with CMOS switches and a C-band quadrature voltage-controlled oscillator(QVCO) have been developed using the TowerJazz 0.18-um RFCMOS process. The SSB mixer exhibits a conversion gain of 6.6 ~ 7.5 dB with a 70-dBc image rejection ratio and 65-dBc port isolation. The oscillation frequency range of the QVCO is 6.2 ~ 6.7 GHz with an output power of 4~6 dBm. For measurement, 1.8 V supply voltage is used while drawing 36 mA for the mixer and 23 mA for the QVCO.

광섬유 통신에서 넓은 대역폭 증폭을 이루기 위하여 광대역 증폭기가 필요하다. 증폭기의 대역폭을 넓히기 위해 C-대역과 L-대역 EDFA를 결합하여 사용하는 등의 여러 가지 방법이 제안되고 있다. 그 중 L-대역을 결합하는 방법이 실제 시스템 적용에서 가장 즉시 이용가능한 방법이라 할 수 있다. L-대역 EDFA의 경우 상대적으로 이득이 낮으며 효율이 떨어진다. 이득이나 효율을 높이기 위해서 FBG, 양방향 펌핑(bidirectional pump), 그리고 이중경로(double-pass) 구조를 이용하는 방법이 제안되었다. (중략)

Fast restoration time and service guarantee are the important goals to achieve the network reliability. In the protection switching scheme, one way to guarantee service fro an application session if a network happens to fail is to establish the restoration path that amounts to the same bandwidth of the working path of the session at the same time. When we setup the restoration path, we can reduce the bandwidth consumption by the restoration path if the path can share the bandwidth required by the other paths. This paper explains the methods how to determine the shared bandwidth of the restoration path in the protection switching scheme, given the maximum bandwidth assigned to a link along the working path. We point out that such sharing algorithm can not reduce the bandwidth consumption by the restoration paths in some cases, which contradict the general conception. We explain why this can happen, and show the simulation results in real network topologies to prove our arguments. We explain the reason of the failure of the sharing effect by the simple sharing algorithm. Finally we propose the way of how we can overcome the failure of the sharing effect, using the complete sharing algorithm based on the link database and showing the results.

The neighbor discovery using directional antennas in mmWave band is a prerequisite for communications and this issue is crucial and urgent. In this paper, the synchronized, direct, two-way directional neighbor discovery process is analyzed mathematically for mmWave WPANs. The analysis is based on the values which are derived from the effect of using directional antennas. The neighbor discovery probability for a given amount of time is considered and several performance measures such as the optimal sojourn time are derived in closed forms. Numerical results are obtained using parameters based on the IEEE 802.15.3c. The mathematical analysis provides the theoretical basis for the directional neighbor discovery process.
