In this paper, a tunable integrated transmitter leakage canceller based on an autotransformer for ultra-high-frequency (UHF) RFID readers is presented. The proposed TX leakage canceller consists of an autotransformer, a digital tuning capacitor, a voltage controlled tuning resistor, and a compensating amplifier, and it is designed using 0.13 ${\mu}m$ 1-poly 6-metal RF CMOS process. The simulation results show that the proposed structure has over 55 dB rejection characteristic between a transmitter and a receiver and a 2.5 dB of the RX insertion loss. The TX leakage canceller can be digitally tuned from 825 MHz to 985 MHz with the tuning capacitor and it can be fully integrated.

최근 무선통신 분야의 급속한 성장은 양적인 성장에 이어 보다, 고품질의 서비스를 요구하게 되었다. 무선통신 환경에서는 전파강도의 부족으로 전파가 도달할 수 없는 음영지역이 발생하게 되는데 이러한 음영지역까지 통신이 가능하도록 하기위해 기지국으로부터 받은 신호를 재증폭하는 중계기를 사용한다. 이때 중계기의 수신단과 송신단 간의 격리도가 충분히 확보되지 않으면 발진이 일어나 서비스 품질을 떨어뜨리게 된다. 본 논문에서는 중계기에서 신호를 효율적으로 전송하기 위해 수신안테나와 송신안테나 사이의 격리도를 개선할 수 있는 방법으로 반사판의 사용과 홈(groove) 기법, 안테나의 편극을 이용하여 1900MHz PCS 대역에서 50dB 이상의 격리도를 확보할 수 있음을 보인다.

In this study, we fabricated the advanced telemetry system that transmitting media use radio frequency(RF) for the middle range measurement of the physiological signals and receiving media use optical for electromagnetic interference problem. The telemetry system within a size of 65$\times$125$\times$45mm consists of three parts: a RF transmitter, a optical receiver and a physiological signal processing CMOS one chip. Advantages of proposed telemetry system is wireless middle range(50m) FM transmission, reduce electromagnetic interference to a minimum which enables a comfortable bed-side telemetry system.

본 논문에서는 PLL 주파수 합성기를 이용한 900 MHz 대역의 무선 마이크용 송신기를 설계 및 제작하였다. 위상잡음을 고려한 주파수 합성기는 VCO, Loop Filter 및 RF 중폭부로 구성한 후 HP EEsof ADS ver. 1.3을 이용하여 설계하였다. VCO는 구조가 간단하며 변조가 용이한 직접변조방식을 사용하였으며 Loop Filter는 주파수 합성기의 기준 고조파 성분을 낮추기 위해 수동 3차 필터를 사용하였다. 주파수 대역 928.125 MHz～929.875 MHz 내에서 채널간격 125 kHz를 갖으며 15개의 채널이 되도록 분주비를 설정한 주파수 합성기는 제작 결과, 송신기 출력 9.3 dBm과 위상잡음이 100 kHz에서 -113 dBc/Hz 이하의 위상잡음 특성을 나타내었고 불요주파수 특성은 -80 dBc 이하의 특성을 나타내었다.

Digital DBS service using Korea Sat starts at Korea Telecom's Yong-in transmission site. Total 6 transmitting stations are needed. At each transmitting station, 4 TV programs are compressed and multiplexed using MPEG-2, modulated into IF, RF signals, then finally transmitted through antenna. At DBS transponder, received signal is down converted, amplified and re-transmitted to earth. At receiver, signal is received by 45cm dish antenna, then wanted program is selected, demultiplexed and decoded. Transmission performance of BER lOE-ll is implemented by using FEe coding and QPSK modulation. For pay TV management, conditional access system, smart card and modem are used.

This work presents a 77 GHz radar transmitter for the automotive radar system. An integrated 13 GHz frequency synthesizer fabricated using 130 nm RF CMOS process drives a commercial W-band compound semiconductor monolithic multifunction amplifier(MPA), which includes a frequency multiplier by six to generate 77 GHz transmitting signal. The 13 GHz frequency synthesizer includes a high efficiency injection buffer of 4 dBm output power to drive the MPA. The output power of 77 GHz radar transmitter is higher than 13.99 dBm and the magnitude of the reference spur relative to the carrier is -36.45 dBc. The phase noise is -81 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset frequency from the carrier.

In this thesis, an automatic door lock system using a dual tone multiple frequency(DTMF) signal generated as pushing the key button of mobile phone is proposed and implemented. This system consists of a transmitter module and a receiver module for processing the DTMF signal of mobile phone. The DTMF signal of mobile phone connected with ear-phone jack enter into the input terminal of DTMF receiver and those are encoded by a code-converter with 4-bits binary format in the DTMF receiver. The encoded output signals are transmitted to the amplitude shift keying(ASK) modulator of transmitter module and the modulated ASK signals which are converted into radio frequency(RF) signals propagate in a free space. The RF signals passed through a free space are demodulated by the ASK demodulator of receiver module and the demodulated ASK signals are sent to a micro-controller unit(MCU). The output signals processed by the MCU are compared with the secreted identification number which is prerecorded in a microprocessor and are transferred to a power relay. If the result is the same, the automatic door lock system opens a door. In the opposite case, it maintains closing the door. The implemented automatic door lock system operates well in mobile environments.

This paper includes the test results of KOMPSAT-2 payload downlink system which were measured for the purpose of performance verification. The antenna beam patterns which indicates the status of the interface & antenna itself, were measured as well as the antenna VSWR. The checkout of the transponder & its spectrum was followed and this made sure that there was no spurious output distinguished. Finally a test for BER verification was conducted between satellite and receiving system for their compatibility through the antenna-to-antenna connection using an antenna hat. Verification tests for an RF system should be performed after relocation, integration and test for environments in order to make sure that no degradation happens.

The implementation of base station transceiver for Wideband CDMA(Code Division Multiple Access) PCS(Personal Communication Service) system using spread spectrum CDMA technology is presented in this paper. The receiver that requires wide dynamic range and high sensitivity and the transmitter that has good spurious emission supression were designed and implemented with 5 MHz RF channel bandwidth. This paper shows the some factors that should be considered and simulated using the RF simulation S/W with commercial and customized components. The implemented transceiver based on the simulation gave good results that satisfied the functional specifications of the transceiver.
