  • Ceramics based on CaTiO₃-NdAlO₃ solid solutions were synthesized in order to study their dielectric microwave properties. Microstructural analysis was performed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) using different analytical methods such as energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS). It was observed that the heating conditions during sintering and cooling strongly affect the microstructural development of CaTiO₃-NdAlO₃-based ceramics. Various types and concentrations of structural defects were identified, for example, dislocations, twins and/or antiphase boundaries. all such defects resulted in a degradation of the dielectric microwave properties, in particular the quality factor Q. Dielectric properties of CaTiO₃-NdAlO₃-based ceramics can be improved by an appropriate thermal treatment of ceramics which results in a decrease in the concentrations of the identified microstructural defects.

  • $MnO_2$ added $(Pb_{0.45}Ca_{0.55})(Fe_{0.5}Nb_{0.5})O_3$ was calcined at $850^{\circ}C$ for two hours and sintered at $1100^{\circ}C$ for two hours. The microstructure was examined using XRD and SEM. The dielectric constant, the quality factor, and the temperature stability was measured using Hakki and Coleman method. Dielectric constant was improved to 94 from 0.5wt% $MnO_2$ added sample with $Q{\cdot}f=4260GHz$ and acceptable ${\tau}_f$ (< $20ppm/^{\circ}C$).

  • In this paper, a new technique to reduce the phase noise in microwave oscillators is proposed using the resonant characteristics of the Photonic Bandgap(PBG). We applied PBG structure to ground of the microstrip line resonator with the low Q(Quality factor). Therefore, we improved about 10 dBc in contrast to phase noise characteristic of the conventional microstrip line oscillator at 2.4 GHz @ 100 MHz offset. Output power is 7.09 dBm.

  • In this paper, a versatile three-input five-output universal capacitor-grounded voltage-mode filter is proposed. The circuit employs two differential voltage current conveyors as active elements together with two grounded capacitors and four resistors as passive elements. The proposed configuration can be used as either a single-input five-output or three-input two-output. Unlike the previously reported works, it can simultaneously realize five different generic filtering signals: lowpass, bandpass, highpass, bandreject, and allpass. It still maintains the following advantages: (i) the employment of all grounded capacitors, (ii) no need to employ inverting-type input signals, (iii) no need to impose component choice, (iv) orthogonal control of the resonance angular frequency ${\omega}_o$ and the quality factor Q, and (v) low active and passive sensitivity performances.

  • This topic presents an inductor short turn testing. From the rudimentary principles, the quality factor(Q) decreases due to inductor short turn. Frequency response varies because of the variation of circuit inductance and resistance. In general, short turn circuit testing is performed by comparing the ratio of an inductance and resistance of inductor in that particular circuit. An alternative method can be done by considering the response of second order circuit which can give both dynamic and static testing, whereas static testing give an error results not more than 2 turns. For dynamic testing, the result is more accurate, which can test fur the short turn number form 1 turn onward.

  • We proposed a novel bondwire inductor buried in plastic package for low cost MMIC and characaterized the electrical perofmrance in a wide frequency range using the full-wave analysis of finite element method(FEM), and then we fabricated and measured the scale-up model in order to prove the characteristics. Th ebondwire inductor has higher quality factor and higher cutoff frequency than the conventional spiral inductor designed n the same area as the bondwire inductor. Since the air-bridge process is not requried for the bondwire inductor, it is very suitable for low cost plastic-packaged MMIC production. The bondwire inductor has the field distribution localized around the bondwire inductor and hence is more compatible to the crosstalk problems.

  • 한반도 동남부 지역에서 발생하고 관찰된 약진 또는 중진의 자료를 이영하여 이 지역의 Q값과 지진원의 특성인 모서리 주파수 (fc), 응력강하량(Δ$\delta$) 및 모멘크규모 (Mw)를 산정하였다. 가속도 스펙트럼의 경사와 관련된 x의 통계학적 분포로부터 추정한 Q의 95% 신뢰범위는 1656~2454 이다. 1998년 1월 18일 울산 앞바다 지진과 1997년 6월 26일 경주지진의 지진원 요소를 구한 결과 fc 는 각각 4.22Hz , 2.94Hz, Δ$\delta$는 각각 106.8 bar, 106.2 bar, Mw는 각각 3.9, 4.0으로 추정되었다. 제한된 자료수로 인하여 이들의 통계학적 성질을 충분히 규명하지는 못하였지만 다른 연구자들의 기존결과와 유사한 값을 보인다. 본 연구의 결과는 강진동 모사에 직접 이용이 가능하며, 이 지역에 위치한 원자력 발전소 내진 안전성 검토에도 이용될 수 있다.

  • The radiation properties and fabrication precautions of a 3D printed, electrically small folded spherical meander wire monopole antenna are investigated. The antenna is self-resonant and shows sufficiently high radiation efficiency at an electrical size ka of 0.4, with the radiation quality factor Q approaching the lower physical bound. In antenna fabrication, the possible structural deformation due to gravity is examined before the antenna frame is 3D-printed. The required conductivity is achieved by multiple manual paintings of a silver paste. The radiation efficiency and pattern show very good agreement with the computed expectations, whereas the resonant frequency deviates by 11.8%. The method to minimize such a fabrication error when using 3D printing technology for wire antennas is discussed.

  • 본 논문에서는 유도가열용 전원장치의 역률을 개선함으로써 효율을 극대화 시킬 수 있는 새로운 기법을 제안한다. 일반적으로 유도가열 부하의 경우 전기적인 특성상 Q(quality factor)값이 매우 크므로 인해 전원장치에서 공급되는 대부분의 전력은 위상차에 따른 무효전력이며 더불어 입력전류 고조파에 의한 무효전력도 포함되어 있다. 이러한 무효전력 성분을 보상하기 위해 유도가열용 전원장치 인버터부에 역률보상용 콘덴서를 부착하고 적절하게 운전하여 위상차에 따른 무효전력 성분을 보상할 수 있다. 또한 컨버터부에 간단한 보조회로를 추가하여 입력전류의 고조파를 제거함으로써 고조파에 의한 역률도 개선할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 고조파로 인해 야기되는 문제도 사전에 차단할 수 있다.

  • The circular cavity resonator which can measure the dielectric properties of dielectrics in the V-band($50GHz{\sim}75GHz$) frequency range was designed and fabricated. Exciting and detecting of the resonator is peformed by WR15 rectangular waveguides using Bethe's small hole coupling. The GaAs plate sample was used for the verification of the performance of the fabricated circular cavity resonator. In the measurement of GaAs single crystal using that resonator, the resonant frequency of the dominant $TE_{011}$ mode, the permittivity and $Q{\times}f_0$ were measured as 53.29GHz, 12.87 and 138,000, respectively.
