The received signal of ICS repeater is composed of BS(Base Station) and feedback signals. In this case, if the feedback signal is not rejected, system is oscillated. we use the IF signal for rejecting the feedback signal at ICS system. In general, SAW filter is used to reject the image of If signal. the use of this filter generates the system delay problems. In this paper, instead of SAW filter we use the Hilbert transform for rejecting image signal.

본 논문에서는 모바일 컨버젼스 단말기를 위한 Tunable Image Rejection Filter를 구현 하였다. 이 필터는 TSMC 0.25um 공정을 이용해 시뮬레이션 되었다. 또한 정전기로 인한 소자의 파괴를 방지하기 위해 ESD 패드(Electro Static Discharge Pad)를 추가하였다. 영상 주파수 저지 특성은 WCDMA(2.1GHz), WiBro(2.3GHz), WLAN(2.45) 대역에서 모두 28dB 이상이고, 이때 바이어스 전압은 각각 0.5V, 0.95v, 1.8V의 전압을 가지게 되었다. 삽입 손실은 세 대역에서 모두 2dB 이하이다.

It is very important to predict the future position for the heavy vehicle with evasive maneuvering. In this paper, we considered for the manual image tracking system. The vehicle images are received from gyro stabilized mirror system, pass through the optical lens, processed, and displayed on the TV monitor. The operator try to lay the reticle to the center of vehicle image. When the vehicle is moving, the mirror platform (actually the line of sight) should follow the vehicle and the angular rate information is picked up from the mirror stabilized system. This rate signal should be used to predict the future vehicle position. The problem is that the visual system of the human operator is in the closed loop system. The rate signals are disturbed by the operator. In addition, there are some non linearities concerned with the control handle bar and the servo control system. The proposed Kalman filter, combined with some modifications for operator disturbance rejection, improved the predication of the future vehicle position when compared with the conventional passive filter used.

According to the design concept of microwave front-end, a low noise amplifier block using HBT cascode topology is proposed to provide high gain and low noise figure with low bias current. We has implemented MMIC-LNA with a modified configuration using inductors to show low noise at the emitter and base of cascoded HBT-MMIC amplifier. The measured performance of the designed MMIC-LNA at 3.7GHz are a gain of 19dB, noise figure of 2.7dB and image rejection of 35dBc using a supply of 3mA and 2.7V. We can convinced that cascoded amplifier block to fulfill a high gain, low noise and image rejection if microwave front-end receiver is designed by cascode MMEC-LNA with the active image rejection filter.

In this paper, a 2-channel Image-Reject receiver using a 65-nm CMOS process is presented for Ka-band compact radars. The designed receiver consists of Low-Noise Amplifier (LNA), IQ mixer, and Analog Baseband (ABB). ABB includes a complex filter in order to suppress unwanted images, and the variable gain amplifiers (VGAs) in RF block and ABB have gain tuning range from 4.5-56 dB for wide dynamic range. The gain of the receiver is controlled by on-chip SPI controllers. The receiver has noise figure of <15 dB, OP1dB of >4 dBm, image rejection ratio of >30 dB, and channel isolation of >45 dB at the voltage gain of 36 dB, in the Ka-band target frequency. The receiver consumes 420 mA at 1.2 V supply with die area of 4000×1600 ㎛.

In this paper, two types of thin nim bulk acoustic resonator(TFBAR) ladder filters are desisted and fabricated to analyze the effects of on-wafer inductor integration. To suppress the overmode phenomenon a 1 $\mu\textrm{m}$ thick air-gap is fabricated under the TFBAR and aluminum nitride is used for piezoelectric material, while platinum is employed for the top and bottom electrodes. The Tx filter in a duplexer, which usually has a steeper skirt characteristics o the right side of the passband, is designed with four serial and two shunt resonators, namely, a 4/2 stage. Similarly, the Rx filter is devised with a 3/4 stage to create a mirrored image of the Tx filter passband characteristics. Fabricated on-wafer spiral inductors with underpass reveals the Q factor of 5～9 at 2 ㎓. Inductor integrated filters have approximately 10 to 12 ㏈ out-of-band rejection improvement, when compared to the original filters.

In this paper, a systematic design method of brjoadband tunable bandpass filter is presented by using user defined varactor diode method. The tunable bandpass filter is constructed as the cascade connection of low pass filter and high pass filter. The designed filter shows the characteristeristics of 2.7.+-.0.2dB insertion loss and 37.1.+-.5.0dB insertion loss and 32.1.+-.2.2dB image rejection. The results of the research can be used fodr the broadband tunable filter of DBS tuner and communication instruments.

We have developed solar observational system in the department of Astronomy & Space Sciences of KyungHee University, in order to monitor solar activities and construct solar database for space weather forecasting at maximum of 23rd solar cycle, as well as an solar education and exercise for undergraduate students. Our solar observational system consists of the full disk monitoring system and the regional observation system for H a fine structure. Full disk monitoring system is made of an energy rejection filter, 16cm refractor, video CCD camera and monitor. Monitored data are recorded to VHS video tape and analog output of video CCD can be captured as digital images by the computer with video graphic card. Another system for regional observation of the sun is made of energy rejection filter, 21cm Schmidt-Cassegrain reflector, H a filter with 1.6A pass band width and $375\times242$ CCD camera. We can observe H a fine structure in active regions of solar disk and solar limb, by using this system. We have carried out intense solar observations for a test of our system. It is found that Quality of our H a image is as good as that of solar images provided by Space Environmental Center. In this paper, we introduce the basic characteristics of the KyungHee Solar Observation System and result of our solar observations. We hope that our data should be used for space weather forecasting with domestic data of RRL(Radio Research Laboratory) and SOFT(SOlar Flare Telescope).

The RF front-end for L1/L2 dual-band Global Positioning System(GPS) receiver is presented in this paper. The RF front-end(down-converter) using low IF architecture consists of a wideband low noise amplifier(LNA), a current mode logic(CML) frequency divider and a I/Q down-conversion mixer with a poly-phase filter for image rejection. The current bleeding technique is used in the LNA and mixer to obtain the high gain and solve the head-room problem. The common drain feedback is adopted for low noise amplifier to achieve the wideband input matching without inductors. The fabricated RF front-end using $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process shows a gain of 38 dB for L1 and 41 dB for L2 band. The measured IIP3 is -29 dBm in L1 band and -33 dBm in L2 band, The input return loss is less than -10 dB from 50 MHz to 3 GHz. The measured noise figure(NF) is 3.81 dB for L1 band and 3.71 dB for L2 band. The image rejection ratio is 36.5 dB. The chip size of RF front end is $1.2{\times}1.35mm^2$.

This paper presents a novel method which can detect a target in IR image for active protection system. The target in IR image for the active protection system is small, moreover it moves with enormous speed. The proposed algorithm is comprised of robust clutter rejection methods and target optimized detection algorithms for small target, and an advanced method of selecting a final target position in target area, it can work in some milliseconds. The proposed algorithm provides the active protective system with more correct positions than those of radar, so that helps the active protection system can defense all threats with the utmost precision.
