Abstract

In this paper, a 1.485 Gbps video signal transmission system using the carrier frequency of 240 GHz band was designed and simulated. The sub-harmonic mixer based on Schottky barrier diode was simulated in the transmitter and receiver. Both of heterodyne and direct detection receivers were simulated for each performance analysis. The ASK modulation was used in the transmitter and the envelop detection method was used in the receiver. The transmitter simulation results showed that the RF output power was -11.4 dBm($73{\mu}W$), when the IF input power was -3 dBm(0.5 mW) at the LO power of 7 dBm(5 mW) in sub-harmonic mixer, which corresponds to SSB(Single Side Band) conversion loss of 8.4 dB. This value is similar to the conversion loss of 8.0 dB(SSB) of VDI's commercial model WR3.4SHM(220~325 GHz) at 240 GHz. The combined transmitter and receiver simulation results showed that the recovered signal waveforms were in good agreement to the transmitted 1.485 Gbps NRZ signal.

240 GHz 대역의 캐리어 주파수를 이용하여 1.485 Gbps 비디오 전송 시스템을 설계 및 시뮬레이션 하였다. 송수신기는 Schottky Barrier 다이오드 기반의 Sub-harmonic 믹서를 이용하였으며 특히, 수신기는 Heterodyne 및 Direct Detection 두 가지 방식을 적용하여 각각의 성능을 시뮬레이션 하였다. 변조방식은 ASK이며, 수신기에서는 Envelop 검출 방식을 사용하였다. 송신기 시뮬레이션 결과 Sub-harmonic 믹서의 LO 전력 7 dBm(5 mW)에서 IF 입력 전력 -3 dBm(0.5 mW)일 때 RF 출력 전력은 -11.4 dBm($73{\mu}W$)이었으며, SSB(Single Side Band) Conversion Loss는 8.4 dB이다. VDI사의 상용모델 WR3.4SHM(220~325 GHz)의 240 GHz에서의 Conversion loss 8.0 dB(SSB)와 근접한 결과를 얻었다. 1.485 Gbps NRZ 신호전송 시뮬레이션 결과 전송신호와 동일한 수신 파형을 얻었다.
