In this paper, a VCDRO (Voltage Control Dielectric Resonator Oscillator) with low phase noise for X-band application has been designed and fabricated. A low noise and low flicker noise MESFET and a high Q dielectric resonator were selected to obtain good phase noise Performance. Also, a varactor diode having high Q, qualify factor was used to reduce the loading effects and a big Gamma of diode was chosen for linearity of frequency over voltage tuning range. The fabricated circuits was simulated with circuit design tools, ADS to provide the optimum performances. As the measured results of fabricated oscillator, the output power was 5.8 ㏈m at center frequency 12.05㎓ and harmonic suppression -30㏈c, phase noise -114 ㏈c at 100 KHz offset frequency, respectively, and the frequency tuning range as the function of valtage applied to varactor diode was 15.2 MHz and its power variation with frequency was 0.2 ㏈. This oscillator could be available to a local oscillator in X-band.

In this paper, we analyse the effect of phase noise from PLL frequency synthesizer on 64 QAM when detecting corrupted signals. To predict the phase noise of an oscillator very accurately, we assume that the oscillator is linearly time-varying when the input impulsive current to the oscillator is small. The performance of the detector which detects the corrupted signal by oscillator phase noise is compared with that when the detector is only affected by AWGN and then analyse how much the phase noise degrades the system performance for 64 QAM.

As the importance of security increases in various fields, research on a random number generator (RNG) used for generating an encryption key, has been actively conducted. A high-quality RNG is essential to generate a high-performance encryption key, but the initial pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) has the possibility of predicting the encryption key from the outside even though a large amount of hardware resources are required to generate a sufficiently high-performance random number. Therefore, the demand of high-quality true random number generator (TRNG) generating random number through various noises is increasing. This paper examines and compares the representative TRNG methods based on metastable-based and ring-oscillator-based TRNGs. We compare the methods how the random sources are generated in each TRNG and evaluate its performances using NIST SP 800-22 tests.

We investigate the OFDM-based wireless LAN systems operating in the 60 GHz frequency band as part of the fourth-generation (4G) systems. The 60 GHz band is of much interest since this is the band in which a massive amount of spectral space has been allocated worldwide for dense wireless local communications. This paper gives an overview of 60 GHz bandchannel characteristics and an effect on phase noise. The performance of OFDM system is severely degraded by the local oscillator phase noise, which causes both common phase error and inter-carrier interference. In this paper, we apply phase noise suppression (PNS) algorithm that is easy for implementation to OFDM based 60 GHz wireless LAM system and analyze the SER performance. In case of using the PNS algorithm, SER performance is improved about 6dB, 7.5dB, respectively in 16, 64-QAM.

This paper presents a 5.8 GHz PLL using high-speed ring oscillator for WLAN. The proposed ring oscillator has been designed using the negative skewed delay scheme and for differential mode operation. Therefore, the oscillator is insensitive to power-supply-injected noise, and it has the merit of low 1/f noise because tail current sources are not used. The output frequency ranges from 5.13 to 7.04 GHz with the control voltage varing from 0 to 1.8 V. The proposed PLL circuits have been designed, simulated, and proved using 0.18 um 1.8 V TSMC CMOS library. At the operation frequency of 5.8 GHz, the locking time is 2.5 us and the simulated power consumption is 59.9 mW.

Fiber-Bragg-grating external cavity laser(FGL) modules were fabricated and experimentally analyzed. Proposed as a cost-effective solution for optical sources in the WDM-PON access network, FGL modules were packaged to TO-CAN type. We obtained a low threshold current of 13 mA, and an optical output power of 3.6 mW with a bias current of 60 mA at $25^{\circ}C$. The lasing wavelength dependencies on current and temperature were as small as 5.2 pm/mA and 30 pm/$^{\circ}C$, respectively. These change rates of the wavelength with the temperature and current are smaller than those of the DFB laser. Single-mode oscillations with the side-mode suppression ratio(SMSR) over 30 dB are maintained above the threshold current level. The FGL modules can be directly modulated at 155 Mbps, PRBS(2$^{23}$ -1) NRZ signal. Through the BER plots, we did not see the significant degradations before and after the transmission over 20km of the SMF at 155 Mb/s.
