Abstract

This paper describes the design and fabrication of a LNB(Low Noise Block downd-converter) which is a component of a FST(Flyaway Satellite Terminal), one of the ET(Earth Terminal) of the military satellite. LNB is physically composed of an down-converter module, a low noise amplifier module, a transmit band suppression filter, a isolator, a housing, and a cable assembly. It was designed using simulator (AWR) to satisfy the electrical characteristics of LNB's such as gain, noise figure and unwanted signal. The gain and noise figure characteristics were measured at 61.4dBm and 1.37dB, respectively. The unwanted wave was measured at -66.79dBc. Of the electrical requirements of Table 1, not only the above three but also all other items were confirmed to be satisfied.

본 논문은 군 위성의 지상 단말 중 하나인 운반형 위성단말의 구성품인 저잡음하향주파수변환기의 설계 및 제작에 관해 기술하였다. 저잡음하향주파수변환기는 물리적으로 하향변환모듈, 저잡음증폭모듈, 송신대역억제필터, 아이솔레이터, 기구, 케이블조립체로 구성된다. LNB의 전기적 요구 규격인 이득, 잡음특성, 불요파 등의 전기적 특성을 만족하기 시뮬레이터(AWR)를 이용하여 설계하였다. 이득, 잡음특성은 각각 61.4dB 및 1.37dB로 측정되었고, 불요파 특성은 각각 -66.79dBc로 측정되었다. 표 1의 전기적 요구 사항 중 상기 3가지 뿐만 아니라 다른 항목에 대해서도 모두 만족함을 확인하였다.
