In this paper, we derive a transfer function of cross-coupled microwave filter systems by using a characteristics of chain matrices. Depending on the lumped element of capacitor or inductor, the cross-coupled system is negatively- or positively system. We used a ladder network as a starting system composed of several subsystems connected in chain. Each subsystem is descrived by Laplace impedance. By solving the transmission zero characteristic equation derived from the cascaded subsystems, we can find the zeros of filter system with externally cross-coupled lumped elements. With the cross-coupled elements of capacitors, the numerator polynomial of system transfer function is used to locate the quadruplet zeros in complex plane. We show the polynomoials of numerator and denominator of cascaded transfer function, obtaining the zeros of the cross-coupled system.

A design method is newly presented for the creation of planar type filters which shapes will be nonuniform transmission line with continuously varying characteristic impedances. Those filters yield frequency characteristics of the bandstop filter in transmission, and have not nay discontinuities. The design is achieved by the control of wave propagation in view to both reflection an transmission properties on the dispersive nonuniform line within the desired frequency band. The developed algorithm is based on optimized perturbations of inherent nulls of lobes from the solution of first-order nonlinear differential equation for reflection coefficients of the nonuniform line, and an appropriate distribution of reflection coefficient which affects to filter length and bandwidth. Practical measurements for designed wideband microstrip and stop filter show very good agreement with theoretical results.

In this paper, complex quadruplet zeros of microwave filter systems are investigated. For the cascaded systems the chain matrices are most conveniently used to derive the voltage transfer function of Laplace transform with cascaded two-port subsystems. The convenient relations of transfer function and chain matrix are used in order to find the transmission zeros. Starting from a ladder network, we introduced a crossed-coupled lumped element, in order to show the improved response of bandpass filter. By solving the transmission zero characteristic equation derived from the cascaded subsystems, we found the zeros of filter system with externally cross-coupled lumped elements. With the cross-coupled elements of capacitors, the numerator polynomial of system transfer function is used to locate the quadruplet zeros in complex plane. When the two pairs of double are on the zeros -axis, with the perturbed values of element, we learned that the transition band of lowpass filter is improved. By solving the characteristic equation of cascaded transfer function, we can obtain the zeros of the cross-coupled filter system, as a result of perturbed values on lumped element.

In this paper, we designed a Ku-band BPF(Band Pass Filter) by microstrip line that most usually used a microwave device design and fabrication. Here a substrate of designed BPF were silicon substrate(${\varepsilon}_r=11.8$), and metal line was copper and silver/copper structure. And a configration of BPF was used hairpin pattern. A center frequency of designed BPF was 10GHz and their FBW(Fractional Band Width) was 20%(2GHz). It presented simulated results obtained for a 10GHz filter which yields an insertion loss of 0.1dB that ripple value related chebyshev reponse. Finallt we tried to make that a 30dB attenuation frequency was 20% of center frequency.

This letter presents a compact dual-mode tri-band bandpass filter by using a short-circuited stub-loaded stepped-impedance resonator (SIR) and a short-circuited stub-loaded uniform impedance resonator. Also, a hairpin SIR geometry is introduced to miniature the size of this filter while maintaining excellent performance. The use of a short-circuited stub at the central point of the hairpin SIR can generate two resonant modes in two passbands. Its equivalent circuit structure is analyzed by using the even-odd mode theory. For demonstration purposes, a tri-band filter for the applications of the Global Positioning System at 1.57 GHz, Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access at 3.5 GHz, and wireless local area networks at 5.2 GHz is designed, fabricated, and measured.

Through matched filtering synthetic aperture radar (SAR) produces high-resolution imagery from data collected by a relative small antenna. While the impulse response obtained by the matched filter approach produces the best achievable signal-to-noise ratio, large sidelobes must be reduced to obtain higher-resolution SAR images. So, many enhancement methods of SAR imagery have been proposed. As a deconvolution method, the phase-extension inverse filtering is based on the characteristics of the matched filtering used in SAR imaging. It improves spatial resolution as well as effectively suppresses the sidelobes with low computational complexity. In the phase-extension inverse filtering, the impulse response is obtained from simulation with a point target. But in a real SAR environment, for example ERS-1, the impulse response is distorted by many non-ideal factors. So, in the phase-extension inverse filtering for a real SAR processing, the magnitudes of the frequency transfer function have to be compensated to produce more desirable results. In this paper, an estimation method to obtain a more accurate impulse response from a real SAR image is studied. And a compensation scheme to produce better performance of the phase-extension inverse filtering is also introduced.

The main aim of this study was to investigate the sterilization effects of microwave-induced argon plasma at atmospheric pressure on paper materials contaminated with fungi. Plasma-treated filter papers showed no evidence to an unaided eye of burning or paper discoloration due to the plasma treatment. All fungi were perfectly sterilized in less than 1 sec, regardless of strains. These results indicate that this sterilization method for paper materials is easy to use, requires significantly less time than other traditional methods and different plasma sterilization methods, and is also nontoxic.

본 논문에서는 유럽형 점 대 점 마이크로파 고정 통신에 이용되는 주파수 하향 변환기 설계에 있어, 평탄도 개선 측면에서 접근한 단일 평형 주파수 혼합기의 설계 및 제작 결과에 대해 소개하도록 한다. 일반적인 주파수 하향 변환기의 구성에서 주파수 혼합기에 연결되는 RF필터 등의 여파기 임피던스 특성이 RF 대역에서만 유지되고 LO 대역에서는 그 특성이 달라져 LO 구동 전력이 혼합기 다이오드에 불규칙하게 인가됨에 따라 대역 평탄도 특성이 악화된다. 이에 대해 본 논문에서는 영상 대역 제거 필터 및 LO 고조파 필터를 혼합기 내에 집적하고 여파기와 혼합기 포트 간 전기적 길이를 이용하여, 평탄도 특성에 대한 여파기의 영향을 최소로 한 여파기 집적형 주파수 혼합기를 설계하였다. 제작된 주파수 혼합기는 RF 대역 $21.2{\sim}22.6\;GHz$, LO 대역 $19.32{\sim}20.72\;GHz$ IF 대역 1.88 GHz+/-50 MHz의 주파수 재원을 가지며, LO 구동 전력 10 dBm에서 영상 대역 제거 필터를 포함한 변환 손실이 8.5 dB, 대역평탄도 2 dB, 입력 PldB 8 dBm, 입력 IIP3 15 dBm의 특성을 보였다. RF, LO 및 IF 포트의 반사 손실은 각각 -12 dB, -10 dB, -5 dB의 특성을 보였다. LO/RF, LO/IF 격리도는 각각 20 dB, 50 dB로 측정되었다.

A $5^{th}$-order low-pass filter (LPF) chip implemented in a six-layer low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) dielectric substrate has been presented. Lumped elements constituting the LPF are designed three-dimensionally in multilayers. In order to improve the parasitic and mutual coupling effects between them, the LPF is designed by sequentially integrating the three-dimensional (3D) lumped elements, by comparing it to the results of the schematic circuit and 3D electromagnetic (EM) analysis. The designed 3D LPF chip was fabricated in a six-layer LTCC substrate as small as $4.0{\times}3.22{\times}0.68mm^3$. The measured return and insertion losses are less than -11 dB and -0.61 dB, respectively, below 1.5 GHz.
