The cylindrical TEM mode solution for electromagnetic coupling to an angled two-wire transmission line is corrected by imposing some physical constraints additionally. The validity of the correction process is assured by showing that the corrected solution approaches the numerical result for the equivalent model of cascaded piecewise uniform sections.

This paper presents a compact structure composed of an upper high-impedance transmission line, a middle extended parallel coupled line, and a pair of inter-coupled symmetrical stepped impedance stubs. Detailed investigation into this structure based on an equivalent circuit analysis reveals that this proposed structure exhibits a quasi-elliptic low-pass filtering response with three transmission zeros. Moreover, the positions of the three transmission zeros can be tuned and reallocated flexibly by choosing the proper circuit parameters. Finally, the design concept is validated through the design, fabrication, and measurement of two exemplary low-pass filters (LPFs) with one single unit and two cascaded asymmetric units. The measured results agree well with the simulated results. In addition, in the range of $1.42f_c$ to $7.03f_c$, the fabricated quasi-elliptic LPFs experimentally demonstrate a very wide upper-stopband of 20 dB using a compact size of only $0.0089{\lambda}_g{^2}$, where ${\lambda}_g$ is the guided wavelength of a $50{\Omega}$ transmission line at the central frequency.

아날로그 및 디지털 시스템에서 인쇄회로기판에 있는 전송선들의 상호 결합은 장비의 성능을 저하시킬 수 있다. 이 논문에서는 전송선들 사이에 추가로 전송선을 삽입하고 비아 홀을 통해 접지면에 직접 연결시킨 비아펜스의 영향을 해석하기 위한 방법을 제안하였다. 이 방법은 전송선 부분을 위한 회로 개념과 비아 홀 부분을 위한 임피던스 모델링으로 이루어졌고 각 부분을 ABCD 파라미터로 나타내어 직렬 연결하였다. 마지막으로 이 방법에 의한 시뮬레이션 결과를 측정 결과와 비교하여 방법의 타당성을 입증하였다.

By cascading RHTL (Right-Handed Transmission Line) and LHTL (Left-Handed Transmission Line), we fabricated a BPF (Band Pass Filter) in which the phase propagation at the pass band center frequency is fixed as we want. We utilized a positive phase propagation of a RHTL which is a form of LPF (Low Pass Filter) and negative phase propagation of LHTL which is a form of HPF (High Pass Filter). Therefore, if RHTL and LHTL are cascaded, a BPF can be constructed and the phase propagation inside the passband is decided by the number of RHTLs and LHTLs. In this paper, we provide a detailed theory related to it and proved the theory with an actual experiment. In the experiment, we fabricated two BPFs with similar passband. One with $90^{\circ}$ phase shift and the other with $-90^{\circ}$ phase shift at the center of passband. The result of simulation and actual experiment agrees well. This proves the suggested theory is correct and feasible.

In this paper a modular high performance MV-to-LV rectifier based on a cascaded H-bridge rectifier is presented. The proposed rectifier can directly connect to the medium voltage levels and provide a low-voltage and highly-stable DC interface with the consumer applications. The input stage eliminates the necessity for heavy and bulky step-down transformers. It corrects the input power factor and maintains the voltage balance among the individual DC buses. The second stage includes the high frequency parallel-output DC/DC converters which prepares the galvanic isolation, regulates the output voltage, and attenuates the low frequency voltage ripple ($2f_{line}$) generated by the first stage. The parallel-output converters can work in interleaving mode and the active load-current sharing technique is utilized to balance the load power among them. The detailed analysis for modeling and control of the proposed structure is presented. The validity and performance of the proposed topology is verified by simulation and experimental results.

다중 전송선들로 회로를 구성할 경우 필요에 의해 중간 부분이 구부러진 형태를 갖기도 하는데, 이때의 누화는 금속으로 채워진 비아 홀 펜스를 전송선 사이에 위치시킴으로써 감소시킬 수 있다. 이러한 효과를 해석하기 위하여 비아 홀 펜스를 포함한 다중 전송선을 구간별로 나누고, 전송선 구간을 위한 회로 개념 접근법과 비아흘 구간을 위한 임피던스 모델링을 이용하고, 각 구간을 ABCD 행렬로 나타내어 직렬 연결하는 방법을 제안하였다. 마지막으로 이 방법에 의한 최종 계산 결과가 일부 저주파 대역을 제외하고 대략 3 dB 이내의 범위로 측정 결과와 일치함을 확인하였다.

In this paper, discontinuous interconnect lines are modeled as a cascaded line composed of many uniform interconnect lines. The system functions of respective uniform interconnect lines are determined, followed by its time domain response. Since the time domain response expression is a transcendental form, the waveform expression is reconfigured as an approximated linear expression. The proposed model has less than 2% error in the delay estimation.

We present the design of a compact microstrip lowpass filter with a wide stopband which is up to ten times the cutoff frequency. The filter is based on a coupled-line configuration and shunt open stubs. The open stubs create additional transmission zeros, which are used to extend the stopband of the filter without any additional components or cascaded units. A prototype lowpass filter with a 3 dB cutoff frequency of 0.428 GHz and a 15 dB stopband extended up to 4.77 GHz is fabricated to validate the theoretical predictions.

PCB 설계시 전송선간에 발생하는 전자기적 결합 현상은 장비의 동작을 저감시키는 요인이 될 수 있다. 이런 결합 현상은 전송선과 라이저를 통해 흐르는 전류에 의해 생기는 전자기계에 의해 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 PCB상에 놓여 있는 굽은 결합 선로의 누화를 해석하기 위한 개선된 방법을 제안하고 고찰해 보고자 한다. 굽은 결합 선로에 대한 기존의 누화 해석은 굽은 결합 선로의 굽은 지점을 기준으로 각 구간으로 나누고 각 구간을ABCD 행렬로 나타내어 이를 직렬 연결한 방법을 이용하였다. 하지만 본 논문에서 제안하는 누화 해석 방법은 기존의 방법과는 달리 결합 현상을 계산할 때의 결합 구간을 소스가 인가되는 전송선을 인접한 전송선으로 수직 투영시킨 구간만이 아닌 인접한 전송선의 전 구간에 영향을 준다고 보고 계산을 하는 개선된 회로 접근법에 의해 계산하였다. 마지막으로, 몇 가지 굽은 결합 선로 모델들에 대해서 계산한 결과와 측정한 결과를 비교함으로써 본 논문에서 제안하는 누화 해석 방법의 타당성을 보였다.

In this paper, an efficient quantization method of line spectrum pairs(LSP) with cascaded structure of vector quantizer and scalar quantizer is proposed. First, input LSP parameters is vector-quantized using a codebook a with a moderate number of entries. In the second stage of quantization, the components of residual vector are individually quantized by the scalar quantizer. The utilization of ordering property of LSP parameters and the inclusion of interframe prediction improve the quantizer performance and remove the stability check routine after quantization procedure. The new vector-scalar hybrid quantizer using 26 bits/frame shows a transparent quality of speech that an average spectral distortion is 1 dB and the frame proportion with above 2 dB spectral distortion is less than 2%. The performances of proposed quantization method is evaluated in the transmission errors.
