본 논문에서는 W-대역에서 동작하는 고이득 캐스코드 혼합기를 설계 및 제작하였다. W-대역과 같이 높은 주파수 대역에서는 소자의 성능저하로 인해 혼합기의 변환손실이 커지게 된다. 이는 송수신단 구성 시 RF 버퍼 증폭기와 같은 추가적인 이득을 줄 수 있는 회로의 추가로 이어지고 이는 시스템 전체의 선형성 및 안정성에 영향을 미친다. 따라서 혼합기 설계 시 변환이득을 최대화하는 설계가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 혼합기의 변환이득을 최대화하는 것에 초점을 두고 높은 변환이득을 얻기 위해 혼합기의 바이어스를 최적화하였고, 로드-풀 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 출력 정합회로를 최적화하였다. 설계된 회로는 $0.1-{\mu}m$ GaAs pHEMT 공정을 이용하여 제작하였고, 측정을 통해 성능을 검증하였다. 제작된 회로는 W-대역에서 -4.7 dB의 최대 변환이득과 2.5 dBm의 입력 1-dB 감쇄 전력이 측정되었다.

This paper presents the design and analysis of RF Front End for Wireless Heartbeat measurement System. In this work LNA, an inductor connected at the gate of the cascode transistor and capacitive cross-coupling are strategically combined to reduce the noise and the nonlinearity influences of the cascode transistors in a differential LNA. The Mixer is implemented by using the Gilbert-type configuration, cross pmos injection technique and the resonating technique for the tail capacitance. The resulting LNA achieves 1.26 dB NF, better than 1.88dB NF Typical Also Mixer resulting achieves 9.8dB at 100KHz.

In this work, we have designed Gilbert cell downconversion mixer using 0.25um Anam CMOS process, we also have analyzed Conversion gain and IIP3 using Taylor series in our own unique way. Especially, bulk terminal is used as LO( Local Oscillator) input for reduction of power consumption and supply voltage. Supply voltage used in this design is lower than 1.8V and core current is less than 500uA. The simulation experiments showed that the conversion gain, IIP3, and power consumption were -1dB, 4.46dBm, and 0.8mW, respectively.

In this paper, Self-Oscillating Mixer is designed by oscillator that was based on a general nonlinear input-output model for the subharmonic injection locked oscillator is analysed. We have designed and fabricated the Self-Oscillating Mixer for 5GHz by proposed subharmonic injection locked oscillator based frequency synthesizer structure that have characteristic of good frequency sensitivity, good phase noise. The design strategy leading to an optimized SILO with regards to its locking range is described and a test SOM circuit is demonstrated a 4dB conversion gain at 280MHz IF frequency from the carrier.

In the paper, we confirmed improvement Noise figure of the entire RF front-end using spiral inductor with PGS(Patterned Ground Shield) and current bleeding techniques. LNA design is to achieve simultaneous noise and input matching. Spiral inductor in input circuit of LNA inserted PGS for betterment of Q-factor. we modeling inductor using EM simulator, so compared with inductor of TSMC 0.18um. We designed and simulation the optimum structure of PGS using Taguchi's method. We confirmed enhancement of noise figure at LNA after substituted for inductor with PGS. Mixer designed using current bleeding techniques for reduced noise. We designed LNA using inductor with PGS and Mixer using current bleeding techniques, so confirmed improvement of noise figure.

In this study, we used In-line orifice mixer for efficient chemicals mixing in water treatment. The method of using In-line orifice mixer has been already proved the improvement of water treatment efficiency. Numerical study was performed using FLUENT, a commercial code, to standard design and production of effective In-line orifice mixer. As variable for exactly standardizing, a proper ratio between an outer diameter of cone and a diameter of pipe, a distance between cone and orifice, a determination of orifice diameter for an optimal mixing, a distance between injection nozzle's position and cone, Numerical study has been performed for optimal standard and analyzed flow field on a basis of turbulent intensity in an orifice downstream.

This study was conducted for verification and systematization of estimation method about the headloss using CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics). Head loss which happens between the inlet and outlet of in-line mixer can be a major factor for the design and construction. Also, this Case studies about the sensitivity related to the velocity in the piping system. As result, program's default calculation function was used to get each side's total pressure and the differential of each total pressure could be defined as head loss from in-line mixer. In the case of adopting pipe surface friction factor and geometry loss, Calculation residual can be much more reduced. It was found that residual of value between CFD method and field test ranged about 3 through 18 precent.

In this paper, using the newly developed GaAs Schottky beam-lead diode made by Marconi company, we have developed and evaluated the waveguide type single-ended mixer at Q-band. The various components of the mixer were separately designed and optimized using the Super-Compact software. These studies included the design of the step waveguide impedance transformer and the RF-choke filter, and the optimization of a high and low impedance for the RF-choke filter. Moreover, this RF-choke filter pattern included a section to reject the second harmonic frequency of the RF signal. Finally, this Q-band mixer with 1.4GHz/400MHz IF frequency exhibits an average conversion loss of 5.3 dB over 33-50GHz bandwidth.

A new type of FET source mixer with a single bias voltage has been presented. It is designed to operate at Vds=0 [V] with only one positive supply voltage, which makes mixer circuits simple. The proposed mixer has shown improved stability and less sensitivity to both bias and LO power compared with conventional active mixers. It also shows lower conversion loss than that of diode mixers. The minimum conversion loss measured at RF frequency of 5.6㎓ is 0.6㏈ for a LO frequency of 5.8㎓.
