In this paper, we propose a new distortion cancellation mechanism for a balanced power amplifier structure using the carrier cancellation loop of a feedforward and post-distortion technique. The proposed cross post-distortion balanced linear amplifier can reduce nonlinear components as much as the conventional feedforward amplifier through the output dynamic range and broad bandwidth. Also the proposed system provides higher efficiency than the feedforward. The capacities of power amplifier and error power amplifier in the proposed system are analyzed and compared with those of feedforward amplifier. Also the operation mechanisms of the three kind loops are explained. The proposed cross post-distortion balanced linear power amplifier is implemented at the IMT-2000($f_0=2.14\;GHz$) band. With the commercial high power amplifiers of total power of 240 W peak envelope power fer base-station application, the adjacent channel leakage ratio measurement with wideband code division multiple access 4FA signal shows 18.6 dB improvement at an average output power of 40 dBm. The efficiency of fabricated amplifier Improves about 2 % than the conventional feedforward amplifier.

The construction of optical access network costs upper 40% in total installation cost of total optical network. Optimization of access network therefore is core in optical network. Advanced countries include EU, Japan and USA already have researched access network. This paper presents analysis of three broad-band fiber-optics subscriber loop architectures(HFC, ATM-PON, Super PON). The analyses focus on the specific demonstrated architectures and use component cost projections to estimate future network costs on a per-subscriber basis. We use TITAN(Tool for Introduction Scenarios and Techno-Economic Evaluation of The Access Network) model. We find that ATM-PON can deliver voice and ISDN data at installed first costs than the other architectures. This is due to the sharing bandwidth among a cluster of subscribers within Curb. This work intends to support establishing guidelines for strategic decisions regarding the development of the access network alternatives of different operators.

In this paper, we propose the design of a dual-band GPS antenna using in-direct feeding pads. The antenna consists of an upper patch for the GPS L1 band, a lower patch for the GPS L2 band, and two pads on the middle layer for feeding the two radiating patches. A hybrid chip coupler with a phase difference of $90^{\circ}$ is employed at the two feeding ports for achieving a broad circular polarization (CP) bandwidth. The proposed antenna shows bore-sight gains of 3.0 dBic(L1) and 5.1 dBic(L2), and axial ratios of 3.3 dB(L1) and 0.3 dB(L2) by measurement. The active element patterns of the fabricated array with 7 elements show bore-sight gains of -0.4 dBic (L1) and -2.4 dBic(L2), respectively. It proves that the proposed antenna structure is suitable for use in GPS array applications.

Network Virtual Environments (NVEs) is a virtual world where users exchanges messages via network connection. A limited visibility sphere called area of interest (AOI) is used to reduce the load created by the interactions between users. VON-Forwarding model is proposed as an effective methods to reduce network bandwidth in P2P network environment. Vorocast and Fibocast originated from Von-forwarding resolves the problems to receive the same messages repeatly. In this paper, We proposed an Extended Volocast scheme to improve the problem not to get consistency except a limited area near to the center of AOI. The proposed scheme maintains the consistency about the broad area into AOI by adjusting geometrical series $2^X$. We perform simulation experiments to show that the proposed scheme provide better performance compared to the other schemes.

Web cache, which is functionally another word of proxy server, is located between client and server. Web cache has a limited storage area although it has broad bandwidth between client and proxy server, which are usually connected through LAN. Because of limited storage capacity, existing objects in web cache can be deleted for new objects by some rules called replacement algorithm. Hit rate and byte-hit rate are general metrics to evaluate replacement algorithms. Most of the replacement algorithms do satisfy only one metric, or sometimes none of them. In this paper, we propose two replacement algorithms to achieve both high hit rate and byte-hit rate with great satisfaction. In the first algorithm, the cache is appropriately partitioned according to file types as a basic model. In the second algorithm, the cache is composed of two levels; the upper level cache is managed by the basic algorithm, but the lower level is collectively used for all types of files as a shared area. To show the performance of the proposed algorithms, we evaluate hit rate and byte-hit rate of the proposed replacement algorithms using the trace driven simulation.

In this papaer, a new type of ${\lambda}_g/4$ short stub band pass filter and ${\lambda}_g/2$ open stub band pass filter are purposed. Both are designed using FSCS technique for harmonic suppression. The proposed filters that used FSCS technique and a broadband stop filter is integrated to band pass filter to suppress the harmonics. The BSF are also placed between stubs so that the size is larger than prevent as compared to conventional one. The propose filters have center frequency of 5.8 GHz, bandwidth of 50% and harmonics suppressin is 120% has in bandwith. The measurement results in the case of ${\lambda}_g/4$ short stub filter, insertion loss of 0.5 dB, return loss of 14 dB are achieved and in the case of ${\lambda}_g/2$ open stub filter, loss of 0.8 dB, return loss of 14.4 dB are achieved. The simulation results and the measurement results are almost the same.

The antenna array for receiving satellite broadcasting of Koreasat III is proposed. A cavity-backed slot antenna array is proposed to reduce feed line loss, increase the radiation efficiency, and make the feed network simple. A sub-array consists of $2{\times}4$ slot elements backed by a single cavity. By proper choice of dimensions it is shown that the proposed antenna has characteristics of the high radiation efficiency and the broad frequency bandwidth. Antenna characteristics for the array antenna with 256 elements are measured in Ku-band. A single cavity backed-sub-array has the gain of 18 dEi. The gam of the total antenna array(256 elements) is Over 33 dEi.

In this paper, a new type of predistortion linearizer has been studied. It employs a series feedback amplifier with a large source inductance as a predistortion linearizer, which provides positive amplitude and negative phase deviations for input Power and can compensate for AM-AM and AM-PM distortions of power amplifier. This predistortion lineariaer consists of only one CaAs FET, large source inductor, input output matching networks and bias circuits. Because of its simple circuit, the linear can be operated over a broad bandwidth and has good thermal stability The characteristics of this linearizer can be easily tuned using source inductor, its gate bias condition. In fabricated linearizer, the third-order intermodulation distortion(IMD) for main amplifier alone is 10.61dBc, and the $IM_3$ for main amplifier with predistorter is 21.91dBc. Therefore, the $IM_3$ characteristic results an improvement of approximately 11dB.

We investigated the spectral characteristics for temperature and driving current change in visible laser diode. As a result of spectrum analysis, the ratio of frequency change for temperature and driving current change were about $33 GHz/^{\circ}C$, 6.6 GHz/mA in the region which was not mode hopping range. Compared to the sharp mode hopping in the near IR single mode AlGaAs lasers, the visible laser diode showed relatively broad multimode operation in the mode hopping region. We performed the experiment of injection-locking characteristics analysis for visible laser diode. Locking half bandwidth(LHBW) was measured 0~5.0 GHz for $0~25\muW$ input power and it was dependent on the input power. Also, LHBW for polarization angle was dependent on the difference of polarization angle between master laser and slave laser. The phase change of injection-locked output beam of the slave laser diode as a function of the drive current was measured in the interferometer which was composed of master laser and slave laser. The ratio of phase change with the slope of 5.0~1.3 rad/mA was obtained within injection-locking range for the change of $2~25\muW$ input power. power.

In this paper, a linear-array transducer capable of overcoming the faults of a single element and phased array transducers with convex shape for non-destructive ultrasonic testing was designed and fabricated. A 5.5 MHz linear-array transducer was designed using the PiezoCAD program based on the KLM analysis and the PZFlex program based on the FEM analysis. A 2-2 composite structure was employed to achieve broad-band characteristics. A 128 element linear-array transducer was fabricated and its performance was compared with the simulation results. The center frequency of the fabricated transducer was 5.5 MHz and the -6 dB frequency bandwidth was 70 %. Thus, we expect that the designed transducer can provide an effective inner image of the test material during non-destructive ultrasonic testing.
