In this paper, we examined receiving parameters of IMT-2000 receiving system and also analyzed them through simulation based on the minimum specification of DCS and PCS mobile station. As a result of simulation, noise figure which is the parameter of specification of the receiving sensitivity is 7.21dB, 6.03dB, and 7.89dB in case of DCS, PCS and IMT-2000 respectively. Therefore we found the receiving sensitivity of IMT-2000 mobile station lower than that of DCS and PCS.

In this paper, a compact microstrip-fed dual-band planar antenna for global positioning system (GPS) and mobile handset applications is presented. Dual operating frequency bands are achieved by an open end L-shaped slot and a bent rectangular slot. The proposed antenna is designed and fabricated on the FR4 substrate with dielectric constant of 4.3, thickness of 1.6 mm and size of 57 × 57 ㎟. The measured impedance bandwidth (|S₁₁|≤ -10dB) of the fabricated antenna is 60 MHz(1550 ~ 1610 MHz) in the GPS band and 670 MHz (1690 ~ 2360 MHz) in the DCS / IMT-2000 band, covering the required bandwidths for GPS(1570 ~ 1580 MHz) and DCS / IMT-2000 (1710 ~ 2200 MHz) bands. In particular, it has been observed that antenna has a good omnidirectional radiation patterns as well as high gain of 2.36 dBi and its efficiency is more than 90 % over the entire frequency band of interest.

Wideband terminal and base station is required to serve not only existing 1st and 2nd generation mobile communication systems but also 3rd generation systems. In this paper, we presents a feasibility study on single feed compact wideband antenna for wireless communication applications including GSM (890-960 MHz), GPS (1575 MHz), DCS (1710-1880 MHz), PCS (1880-1990 MHz), UMTS (1900-2200 MHz), ISM (2400-2480 MHz), IMT2000 and satellite DMB bands. The original antenna was designed for partial discharge detection sensor in high voltage diagnostic system. However, we modified the original prototype to achieve shifted down resonant frequency for wideband wireless communication applications. The experimental result shows good return loss characteristics and radiation patterns except for the total gain at each resonant frequency. The maximum measured gain was 2.45 dBi${\sim}$3.18 dBi at 1710 MHz${\sim}$1880 MHz.

This paper presents a ultra-wideband sinuous antenna that operates in a whole frequency range (0.824~5.85 GHz) of Cellular/GSM-800, GSM900, ISM, GPS, DCS/GSM1800, PCS/GSM1900, WCDMA/UMTS/IMT2000, WiBro, WLAN and WiMax. The proposed antenna, which is composed of two sinuous arms, is designed as a self-complementary structure in order to have frequency-independent characteristics. It also uses a wideband balun of Klopfenstein taper structure to match to $50{\Omega}$. Experimental results show that the -10 dB return loss bandwidth of the proposed antenna is 5.24 GHz that ranges from 0.76 to 6 GHz, which covers all the frequency bands of the various wireless services. Within the entire operating frequency range, the measured radiation patterns in both E-plane and H-plane show nearly constant bidirectional broadside beams and the maximum antenna gain is measured to fall between 2.32~6.01 dBi.

In this paper, we describe the procedure of simulation design and measured results of a compact planar antenna for handset applications. The broad bandwidth covering the interested frequency band for mobile handset is achieved by introduction of an open ended L-shaped slot which is newly proposed and corresponds to the monopole slot. In order to minimize the impact on circuit part placement, the proposed antenna is placed on the ground plane edge of PCB with size of 60×65 mm². The measurement result for 10dB impedance bandwidths is 640 MHz (1.7~2.34 GHz), covering the required bandwidths for DCS (Digital Cellular System)-1800 (1710 ~ 1880 MHz) / IMT (International Mobile Telecommunication)-2000 (1885 ~ 2200 MHz) bands. In particular, we would like to emphasize the proposed antenna has an omnidirectional radiation pattern suitable for commercial wireless communication.

This study designed and fabricated a multi-purpose planar antenna for base stations that are accessible to DCS, WiBro, and ISM. The proposed antenna was designed into an open loop form from the existing monopole structure. The capacitance of the multi-purpose antenna was increased by the coupling of open parts. This makes the use of MMIC and LTCC convenient and the antenna is smaller and has a larger gain than existing antennas. The resonance distance and bandwidth can be adjusted by changing the open gap and the height of the loop of the antenna. The bandwidth of the designed antenna satisfies DCS, IMT-2000, WiBro, Bluetooth, wireless LAN and ISM bands based on VSWR 2. The entire frequency bandwidth is $58.75\%$ of $1.575GHz\~2.985GHz(1.41GHz)$. Also, the radiation pattern of the antenna displayed co-polarization and cross-polarization characteristics at 1.6GHz, 2.3GHz and 2.8GHz.

In this paper, we proposed a new DGS(Defected Ground Structure) Doherty amplifier for IMT-2000 band. Originally, active load-pull analysis of a Doherty amplifier assumes ideal harmonic termination condition. However, there have been no papers considering this ideal harmonic termination condition. We obtained excellent improvements of efficiency, gain, maximum output power as well as superior size reduction of a Doherly amplifier by satisfying the overlooked assumption of ideal harmonic termination through the adaptation of DGS at the output transmission line of carrier and peaking amplifier that is essential for Doherty operation. The amount of both the 2nd and the 3rd harmonic rejection of the proposed DGS Doherty amplifier over the conventional one are 44.92 dB and over 23.77 dB, respectively. The acquired improvement in Pl dB, gain, drain efficiency, and ACPR to WCDMA 1FA signal were 0.42 dB, 0.33 dB, $6.4\%$ and 5.4 dBc, respectively. Moreover, electrical length of $90{\circ}$ is reduced at each of the DGS carrier amplifier path and DGS peaking amplifier path, therefore the whole amplifier circuit size is considerably reduced.
