Because of directly receiving the thing in which a microwave is reflected and comparing the frequency, the microwave sensor with doppler effect completely overcomes the problem of the passive infrared sensor. The microwave sensor with doppler effect well operates about a temperature, the dust, and the peripheral noise because of being dull in the most of ambient conditions. The system developed in this research is the electricity saving detection sensor which it senses the real time action of a man as the microwave sensor and automatically turns on the electric lamp and turns off, minimizes the electrical energy consumption. Since the microwave sensor is not influenced in the light, the dust, and the natural element like the ambient temperature, the effectiveness is considered to be superior to the passive infrared sensor being used currently. There was the energy reduction effect more than about 60% in the performed example which established this system. When this was compared with the construction cost, the cost of establishing payback period was about 1-1.5 year. The microwave sensor with doppler effect developed from this research result is convinced in the future to do enough for the electric energy saving.

This paper reviews the research on silicon based phased array system operating from microwave to millimeter wave frequencies. First, the design of phase shifter using CMOS technology is presented. The passive phase shifter is applied to the transmit/receive module from one to 16 channel in a single chip. The 35 GHz 4-element T/R module consumes less than 200 mW both transmit and receive modes. The architecture can extend to 16-channel operating at 44 GHz, thereby improving transmit power and linearity. The Ku-band 2-antenna 4-element receiver was developed using active phase shifter based on vector sum method. It is important to minimize coupling between beams because the chip contains four independent beams. The method of coupling is presented and verified.

In this paper, phase shifter has been designed and manufactured to apply to passive phase array seeker for Ka-band and its performance was confirmed. It was designed as a key element for conducting electric beam steering by adjusting the phase of the array element. Insertion loss of less than 1.5dB and phase accuracy of less than $10^{\circ}$(RMS) in operation bandwidth of 1GHz were checked. The performance identified by the actual fabrication was further analyzed by applying the beam pattern analysis based on the array synthesis theory. The effect of the final performamnce of the proven phase shifter on the performance and pointing error and angular accuracy of the passive phase array antenna beam pattern was analyzed. Then, the validation of the proposed phase shifter has been made.

The DISCOVER Project (${\underline{D}}istributed$ ${\underline{I}}nformation$ ${\underline{S}}ervices$ for ${\underline{C}}limate$ and ${\underline{O}}cean$ products and ${\underline{V}}isualizations$ for ${\underline{E}}arth$ ${\underline{R}}esearch$) is a NASA funded Earth Science REASoN project that strives to provide highly accurate, carefully calibrated, long-term climate data records and near-real-time ocean products suitable for the most demanding Earth research applications via easy-to-use display and data access tools. A key element of DISCOVER is the merging of data from the multiple sensors on multiple platforms into geophysical data sets consistent in both time and space. The project is a follow-on to the SSM/I Pathfinder and Passive Microwave ESIP projects which pioneered the simultaneous retrieval of sea surface temperature, surface wind speed, columnar water vapor, cloud liquid water content, and rain rate from SSM/I and TMI observations. The ocean products available through DISCOVER are derived from multi-sensor observations combined into daily products and a consistent multi-decadal climate time series. The DISCOVER team has a strong track record in identifying and removing unexpected sources of systematic error in radiometric measurements, including misspecification of SSM/I pointing geometry, the slightly emissive TMI antenna, and problems with the hot calibration source on AMSR-E. This in-depth experience with inter-calibration is absolutely essential for achieving our objective of merging multi-sensor observations into consistent data sets. Extreme care in satellite inter-calibration and commonality of geophysical algorithms is applied to all sensors. This presentation will introduce the DISCOVER products currently available from the web site, http://www.discover-earth.org and provide examples of the scientific application of both the diurnally corrected optimally interpolated global sea surface temperature product and the 4x-daily global microwave water vapor product.

A new design method of lossy matching network for the microwave broadband ampilfier is presented by using seattering parameters instead od modeling of transistor. A lossy matching network is represented as the combination of 2 lossless networks between which lossy serial or parallel immittance is inserted without using specific topology, and so many useful matching cireuits can be realized. Also it is shown that linear transforming relation exists between gain and reflection coefficient of the amplifier, and the transforming equation is derived using scattering parameters. With this equation some constant gain circles can be drawn on reflection coefficient plane to get adequate reflection coefficient and gain. And since the relations between amplifier gain/reflection coefficient and the immittance of passive element are bilinear transformations. constant gain or reflection coefficients circles. Illustrative examples are presented to show the usefulness of proposed method.

This paper propose the new approach of the quantity effect by high efficiency inductor characteristic to the harmonic suppression of the lowpass filter. We applied the reliable de-embedding process in order to extract the precise elements values. Moreover, for the effective its application and comparison, the variable stepped impedance low pass filters with a same specification are designed. The proposed procedure is expected to handle the overall filter performance and to construct a synthesized equivalent circuit from its determined specification.

In this paper, we design the meander line inductors with high sensitivity and high quality factor(Q) using high characteristic impedance of aperture ground plate. Sensitivity as a frequency is new defined by variation of effective inductance per analysis frequency range instead of self resonance frequency (SRF). An equivalent lumped circuit is derived to explain the characteristic of high frequency inductor. The 4 nH meander line inductor with aperture ground plate has 0.45 nH/GHz of good sensitivity and 86 of Q at 0.7 GHz.

In this paper, we extract the parasitic elements of the metal-insulate-metal(MIM) capacitor using short-open calibration (SOC). The scattering matrixes of short, open, and MIM structures in strip lines are measured by full electro-magnetic (EM) simulator and vector network analyser. The full EM simulations are performed by finite element method (FEM) that was fitted three dimensional structure analysis. The electro-magnetic effects of MIM capacitor laminated in the multi-layered structures are proposed the II equivalent circuit with lumped elements, and the relations between the measured scattering parameters of the MIM structures and lumped elements in the circuits are shown by performing 2 port network analysis. The extracted lumped elements using the proposed SOC method are independent to frequencies.

Microwave Otters are essential device in modem wireless systems. A compact dimension BPF(Band-pass Filter) for IEEE 802.11a WLAN service is realized using LTCC multi-layer process. To extrude 2-stage band-pass equivalent circuit, band-pass and J-inverter transform applied to Chebyshev low-pass prototype filter. Because parallel L-C resonator is complicate and hard to control the inductor characteristics in high frequency, the shorted $\lambda/4$ stripline is selected for the resonator structure. The passive element is located in the different layers connected by conventional via structure and isolated by inner GND. The dimension of fabricated stacked band-pass filter which is composed of six layers, is $2.51\times2.27\times1.02\;mm^3$. The measured filter characteristics show the insertion loss of -2.25 dB, half-power bandwidth of 220 MHz, attenuation at 5.7 GHz of -32.25 dB and group delay of 0.9 ns at 5.25 GHz.
