초록

300GHz 대역의 캐리어 주파수를 이용하여 1.5Gbit/s 무선 데이터 전송 시스템을 구현하였다. RF Front-end는 송수신기 각각 쇼트키 다이오드 서브하모닉 믹서, 주파수 3배기, 혼안테나로 구성하였다. 송신기 및 수신기에 사용된 서브하모닉 믹서의 LO 주파수는 각각 150GHz, 156GHz이다. 변조방식은 ASK(Amplitude Shift Keying)이며, 수신기에서는 헤테로다인 방식의 Envelope 검출 방식을 사용하였다. 서브하모닉 믹서의 변환 손실은 9.8dB, 시스템 손실은 1.2dB로 측정되었다. HD-SDI 형식을 갖는 1.5Gbit/s 비디오 신호를 송신기 출력 $20{\mu}W$에서 광학 렌즈 없이 40cm까지, 광학 렌즈를 포함하여 4.2m까지 HDTV로 전송하였다.

In this paper, an 1.5Gbit/s wireless data transmission system using the carrier frequency of 300 GHz band was implemented. The RF front-end was composed of schottky diode sub-harmonic mixer, frequency tripler, and horn antennas for transmitter and receiver, respectively. The LO frequencies of sub-harmonic mixer are 150GHz for transmit chain and 156GHz for receive chain. The ASK(Amplitude Shift Keying) modulation was used in the transmitter and the envelope detection method was used in the heterodyne receiver. The conversion loss of sub-harmonic mixer and implementation system loss were measured to be 9.8dB and 1.2dB, respectively. The 1.5Gbit/s video signal with HD-SDI format was transmitted over wireless distance of 40cm without optical lens(4.2m with optical lens) and displayed on HDTV at the transmitted average output power of $20{\mu}W$.
