In this paper, we present results of this that design of the multi-layer VCO(Voltage Controlled Oscillator), which is composed of the resonation circuit and the oscillation circuit, using EM simulator and nonlinear RF circuit simulator. EM simulator is used for acquiring EM(Electromagnetic) characteristics of conductor pattern as well as designing multi-layer VCO, Acquired EM characteristics of the circuit pattern was used like real components at nonlinear RF circuit simulator. Finally VCO is simulated at nonlinear RF circuit simulator. The material for the circuit pattern was Ag and the dielectric was Dupont ＃9599, which is applied for LTCC process. The structure is constructed with 4 conducting layer. Simulated results showed that the output level was about 1[dBm], the phase noise was 102 [dBc/Hz] at 30[kHz] offset frequency, the harmonics -8dBc, and the control voltage sensitivity of 30[MHz/V] with a DC current consumption of 10[mA].

In this paper, an antenna which has quad band in LTE (0.746 ~ 0.798 GHz), GSM(0.824 ~ 0.960 GHz), DCS(1.71 ~ 1.88 GHz), WCDMA(1.91 ~ 2.17 GHz) is proposed. An antenna size is $122mm{\times}50mm{\times}0.8mm$ on FR4(${\epsilon}_r=4.4$) ground substrate. In the proposed antenna, branch line is applied to the conventional PIFA architecture to achieve multi-bandwidth. Coupling power supply is applied for a wide bandwidth. Result of the measurement is as follows. When the low frequency, the antenna presents gain of 0.93 ~ 1.92dBi, and radiation efficiency of 49.60 ~ 76.35 %, and When the high frequency, gain is 2.19 ~ 4.66dBi, and radiation efficiency is 60.40 ~ 80.01 %, and with a VSWR < 2 (${\leq}-10dB$)measurement results for standard satisfies all band. Judging from the result, proposed multiband antenna is expected to be applied. B4G mobile terminals since the antenna shows an outstanding performance.

KASI (Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute) is developing a compact wide-field survey space telescope system, MIRIS (The Multi-purpose IR Imaging System) to be launched in 2010 as the main payload of the Korea Science and Technology Satellite 3. Through recent System Design Review (SDR) and Preliminary Design Review (PDR), most of the system design concept was reviewed and confirmed. The near IR imaging system adopted short F/2 optics for wide field low resolution observation at wavelength band 0.9~2.0 um minimizing the effect of attitude control system. The mechanical system is composed of a cover, baffle, optics, and detector system using a $256\times256$ Teledyne PICNIC FPA providing a $3.67\times3.67$ degree field of view with a pixel scale of 51.6 arcsec. We designed a support system to minimize heat transfer with Muti-Layer Insulation. The electronics of the MIRIS system is composed of 7 boards including DSP, control, SCIF. Particular attention is being paid to develop mission operation scenario for space observation to minimize IR background radiation from the Earth and Sun. The scientific purpose of MIRIS is to survey the Galactic plane in the emission line of Pa$\alpha$ ($1.88{\mu}m$) and to detect the cosmic infrared background (CIB) radiation. The CIB is being suspected to be originated from the first generation stars of the Universe and we will test this hypothesis by comparing the fluctuations in I (0.9~1.2 um) and H (1.2~2.0 um) bands to search the red shifted Lyman cutoff signature.
