Properties of purified isocitrate lyase from Saccharomycopsis lipolytica ATCC 44601 and MX9-11RX8 temperature-sensitive mutant were investigated. Purified isocitrate lyase from temperature-sensitive mutant was indistinguishable from the wild type enzyme with respect to the isoelectric pH(5.3), the thermostability and Km value for threo-Ds-Isocitrate(about 0.2 mM). When isocitrate lyase induced by acetate minimal medium at 33$^{\circ}C$, MX9-11RX8 mutant did not express enzyme activity but did synthesize polypeptide chain whose electrophoretic mobilities were equal to those of the purified enzymes.

The ultra-wideband (UWB) signal radiation process in an antenna is different from that of a narrowband signal. In this paper, we study the degradation of the desired signal component according to the antenna structure and location of a receiver in a bipolar time-hopping UWB system. And we propose a receiver structure with an adaptive template waveform generator to compensate for the degradation caused by a realistic TX-RX antenna system.

A transmitter (TX) leakage cancellation scheme using a Micro Controller Unit (MCU) is introduced. This paper highlights an adaptive anti-leakage signal generation via an MCU, which plays the key role in reducing the TX leakage signal level. High transmitter-to-receiver (TX-to-RX) isolation is verified with measurement results.

In order to enhance the isolation level between two dual-band E-slot microstrip patch antennas, EBG structure which operates in UMTS Tx(1.92~1.98 GHz) and Rx(2.11~2.17 GHz) band is proposed. The proposed EBG structure made with a periodic array of two different size EBG unit cells which has a modified mushroom-type for isolation improvement between two antennas. They do not share a common ground plane of the microstrip patch antenna. Overall size of the fabricated antenna is $210.5mm{\times}117mm$. The two different EBG unit cell sizes are $15.6mm{\times}4mm$ and $17.4mm{\times}4mm$, respectively. It was etched on the FR-4 substrate(thickness=3.93 mm, ${\varepsilon}_r$=4.6). The experiment results show that the isolation level between antennas in Tx/Rx band were improved by about 9 dB and 12 dB, respectively, through the use of the proposed EBG structure.

A balanced RF duplexer with low interference in an extremely narrow bandgap is proposed. The Long-Term Evolution band-7 duplexer should be designed to prevent the co-existence problem with the WiFi band, whose fractional bandgap corresponds to only 0.7%. By implementing a hybrid bulk acoustic wave (BAW) structure, the temperature coefficient of frequency (TCF) value of the duplexer is successfully reduced and the suppressed interference for the narrow bandgap is performed. To achieve an RF duplexer with balanced Rx output topology, we also propose a novel balanced BAW Rx topology and RF circuit block. The novel balanced Rx filter is designed with both lattice- and ladder-type configurations to ensure excellent attenuation. The RF circuit block, which is located between the antenna and the Rx filter, is developed to simultaneously function as a balance-tounbalance transformer and a phase shift network. The size of the fabricated duplexer is as small as $2.0mm{\times}1.6mm$. The maximum insertion loss of the duplexer is as low as 2.4 dB in the Tx band, and the minimum attenuation in the WiFi band is as high as 36.8 dB. The TCF value is considerably lowered to $-16.9ppm/^{\circ}C$.

This paper is about increasing transfer efficiency of wireless power transmission. The new method is proposed to detect the alignment of transmitter and receiver of wireless charger and so smart phone can display the position of wireless charging receiver on its LCD panel for the maximum charging efficiency. The previous method is only to show the transfer efficiency, but this method is to show not only the efficiency but also coordinates of receiver. The apparatus of the wireless charger is based on WPC(Wireless Power Consortium) standard and has planar air coil combined with magnet shield in Tx and Rx device so that the leakage flux is minimized on condition of under hundreds of kHz operating frequency. In this paper, it's showed that relation of magnet field and distance of each coils can be linearized and position information of Tx and Rx device is calculated thru trigonometry. Through the experiment, the obstacles of linearity are discovered and also showed that it can be optimized. and so the presented method is suitable for alignment detection method of Tx and Rx device in WPC wireless charger.

In this paper, we propose the frequency diversity scheme for performance improvement of a OFDM system without decreasing the spectral efficiency. In the proposed scheme, information bit is encoded to symbol by a simple procedure, and the encoded symbol is transmitted through the two lowest correlated sub-channels with the particular phase difference. At the receiver, a frequency diversity gain is obtained by a simple signal processing. We also suggest optimum phase difference value to minimize the performance degradation which resulted from a phase difference estimation error and bit/symbol mapping method to minimize BER. As results, at the point of performance improvement, the proposed scheme is excellent even though it requires a little increase of system complexity because of an additional encoding and decoding. In particular, we confirmed through computer simulation that on the same channel environment and bandwidth efficiency, the 27x/1Rx STBC-OFDM system adopting the proposed frequency diversity scheme outperforms the conventional 27x/1Rx STBC-OFDM system performance

Author has studied for finding the method of decreasing the radiation dose and increasing diagnostic range in chest X-ray radiography. The study for the added filter thickness from half value layer to 1/8 value layer by decreasing curve and research for the exposure factors, decreasing ratio of radiation dose, ratio of scatter ray and image quality in chest X-ray radiography. The results were as follows: 1. By using the rare earth intensifying screen system at 120 Kvp, the sensitivity is increased by times and the exposure ratio is decreased 0.22 by comparison with the $CaWO_{4}$ intensifying screen system at 80 Kvp. 2. By using Al added filter of 1/8 value layer, the scatter ray is increased more than no filter, But the scatter ray is decreased more in $G_{4}/RxOG$ intensifying system than in LT-II/Rx intensifying system. 3. At 120 Kvp, the image quality value of $G_{4}/RxOG$ system is increased more than LT-II/Rx system compared with slight decreasing image quality value at 80 Kvp. Concluded that by using the added filter could decrease the radiation dose by 1/3 and obtain effective image quality with the added filter at high voltage hard exposure.

In this paper, new automatic LC calibrator is proposed for realizing a passive LC filter with almost constant frequency characteristic regardless of the PVT variations. The SAW-less GPS RX front-end is implemented using a 65nm CMOS process using the proposed LC calibrator. Also, new dual-mode low noise amplifier (LNA) structure is proposed to generate the RF signal required for the LC calibrator. The characteristics of the implemented GPS RX front-end show the voltage gain of about 42.5 dB, noise figure of below 1.35 dB, the blocker input P1dB of -24 dBm in case of the worst blocker signal at 1710 MHz frequency, while it consumes 7 mA current at 1.2 V power supply voltage.
