Abstract
For measuring quad-band module system using WiBro network, frequency converter was developed. The size of the fabricated frequency converter is $3.1cm{\times}3.1cm{\times}0.4cm$. Noise figure of the receiver part of the frequency converter was 2.62 ~ 3.45 dB, EVM of that is -37.5 dB ~ -34.5 dB. And EVM of the transmission part was -42.5 ~ -35.5 dB. Quad-band module was fabricated with the developed frequency converter. Testing the quad-band module in 2.3 GHz WiBro network results the excellent internet connection for 2.5 GHz, 3.5 GHz and 5.5 GHz band.
