본 논문에서는 RF소자들의 테스트시 비용 절감을 극대화 할 수 있는 저가형 고속 RF 자동화 테스트 시스템(Automatic Test Equipment, ATE)의 제작에 관하여 다루어진다. 제작된 RF ATE는 고속의 스위칭 시간과 고정밀 디지타이저를 포함한 16개의 독립적인 RF 입출력 단자를 갖고 있으며 산업 표준인 VXI(Versus module eXtensions for Instrument)와 GPIB(General Purpose Interface Bus) 인터페이스를 사용하여 구성된다. 또한 소자의 생산효율을 극대화하기 위하여 동시에 4개의 소자를 테스트할 수 있도록 시스템이 구성된다. 마지막으로 현재 가격 경쟁이 상당히 심한 소자 중 하나인 RF 전력증폭모듈올, 제작된 RF ATE를 이용하여 테스트를 진행하여 시스템 성능을 검증한다.

A new vertical transition between a substrate integrated waveguide in a low-temperature co-fired ceramic substrate and an air-filled standard waveguide is proposed in this paper. A rectangular cavity resonator with closely spaced metallic vias is designed to connect the substrate integrated waveguide to the standard air-filled waveguide. Physical characteristics of an air-filled WR-22 to WR-22 transition are compared with those of the proposed transition. Simulation and experiment demonstrate that the proposed transition shows a -1.3 dB insertion loss and 6.2 GHz bandwidth with a 10 dB return loss for the back-to-back module. A 40 GHz low-temperature co-fired ceramic module with the proposed vertical transition is also implemented. The implemented module is very compact, measuring 57 mm ${\times}$ 28 mm ${\times}$ 3.3 mm.

Ultra-wide bandwidth (UWB) detection method has been widely used as a front end detection scheme for the ultra-high frequency (UHF) partial discharge (PD) monitoring systems. A broad-band video detector module was developed and characterized for the UHF UWB PD detection systems. The useable bandwidth of the module is more than 2 GHz and it is optimized for 50-ohm systems. The detection sensitivity and dynamic range of the module were characterized by using a known ns-width RF pulses of GHz range. The dynamic range is more than 6-decades and the module can detect pulsed RF signals down to 1 nW. The detector module can eliminate expensive equipment such as high speed oscilloscopes and radio frequency (RF) spectrum analyzers. Therefore, it enables one to use slow speed data acquisition systems for the PD monitoring at the UHF range. The detector module was used to detect real PDs of about <3 pC. The module converts the UWB PD signals into a low-bandwidth video signal with a high signal-to-noise ratio.

본 논문에서는 저온 동시 소성 세라믹(Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic: LTCC) 기술을 이용하여 집적화된 2.4 GHz 대역 무선 송수신 모듈을 구현하였다. 구현된 송수신 모듈은 무선 전단부(RF front-end)단과 송수신 IC칩 단으로 나누어진다. 무선 전단부단은 송수신을 선택하기 위한 SPDT 스위치와 스위치 동작을 위한 DC block 커패시터를 제외하고, 모두 LTCC 내부에 내장하였다. 제작된 무선 전단부는 8층으로 설계되었고, 크기는 $3.3\;mm{\times}5.2\;mm{\times}0.4\;mm$이며, 무선 전단부의 측정 결과는 시뮬레이션과 유사한 결과를 보인다. 송수신 IC 칩 단은 신호 및 전원 선로와 송수신 IC 칩으로 구성이 되어 있다. 제작된 무선 송수신 모듈은 내부 접지(inner GND) 3개 층을 포함한 9층으로 설계되었으며, 크기는 $12\;mm{\times}8.0\;mm{\times}1.1\;mm$이다. 최종적으로 2.4 GHz 대역 송수신 모듈의 송신 파워는 18.1 dBm이고, 수신 민감도는 -85 dBm의 특성으로 우수한 결과를 나타내었다.

A new broadcasting standard for Digital Multimedia Broadcasting(DMB) has been announced in Korea to provide audio, video, and data broadcasting services. There exist two types of DMB; terrestrial DMB and satellite DMB. And in order to service DMB on the single system, the integration of RF module is required. In this paper, we describe an integrated RF tuner module that can receive T-DMB and S-DMB at the same time, which includes an L-band down-converter, a Band III tuner, and a S-DMB tuner.

This paper presents design and manufacture of RF type non-contact radiological dosage measuring device. It also concerns on the broad out-line and the ways of improvement about RF type non-contact radiation measuring device. Measuring radiological dosage with non-contact RF, the stability and efficiency of the measure have been improved by reforming constant current circuit. Furthermore, applying communication protocol in process makes it possible to achieve faster and more accurate communication than old circuit. On the base of those, RF type non-contact radiological dosage measuring device which consists of radiological dosage measuring module and Reader module has been designed and manufactured. While testing communication against embodied device, the possibility of the field application could be confirmed.

In this paper, the results of experiments conducted in indoor wired and outdoor wireless environments to reduce the interference impact of 5G mobile communication on fixed satellite services using RF Interference Reduction Module (IRM) are presented. Test results for interference signals with a 100MHz bandwidth in a wired environment demonstrate that RF IRM can reduce interference by more than 20dB in a 100MHz bandwidth. The performance of RF IRM was also tested in the S-band wireless environments. In the S-band wireless environments with interference signals having a 20MHz bandwidth, RF IRM exhibits interference reduction performance of 12-15dB, for signals with a 50MHz bandwidth, it shows 10-12dB interference reduction, and for signals with a 100MHz bandwidth, it demonstrates 5-10dB interference reduction. This paper shows that RF IRM can be used not only within transceivers but also in wireless environments to mitigate interference.

In this paper, we propose a frequency synthesizer for dualband repeater. The dual-band RF technology for applications to the wireless repeater for CDMA and WCDMA mobile communications has been developed in this paper. The dualband PLL module consisted of dual-band VCO and one PLL IC has been developed. The main technological efforts for the dual-band PLL module is to suppress the intermodulation distortion by applying the miniature ceramic filter using the slow wave characteristics. The dual-band miniature RF module including dual-band PLL module and one MCU controller is very attractive for applications to the miniature dual-band RF mobile repeaters.
