The six-port direct conversion receiver front-end that is comprised of a carrier recovery and a phase shifter, which gets the same structure with six-port phase correlator using the multi-layer coupled line, was designed and fabricated in this paper. The six-port element that is comprised of the power divider and the hybrid coupler is designed by multi-layer coupled line structure. The multi-coupled structure is utilized as the basic structure in receiver phase correlator, carrier recovery circuit and phase shifter. The receiver front-end with the same multi-layer coupled line structure for the receiver elements shows the simple structure and no difficulty in integration. The fabricated multi-layer coupled six-port receiver front-end re-generates the carrier signal with a constant phase and demodulates the PSK transmission signal.

In this paper, local oscillator in K band using low frequency noise upconversion gain anaylsis was designed and measured. We extended Two Signal Method(TSM) to estimate upconversion gain and resulting phase noise. To confirm the validity of the proposed method, a free-running oscillator which had low upconversion gain was designed. The measured oscillation frequency was 23.42 GHz and phase noise at 1 MHz of offset was -105.2 dBc/Hz. Also, this oscillator was operated for subharmonic injection locked osci1lator(SILO). In this case, SILO showed ideal frequency multiplier phase noise characteristics at low subharmonic injection power level.

Phase Locked Loop(PLL) 시스템은 UPS, 전력용 능동필터, PWM 정류기 등 여러 전력변환 장비에서 사용되어 왔다. 특히 계통에 연계된 능동 전력변환 시스템은 계통과의 동기화를 위해 위상각의 정확한 정보가 필요하며 PLL 시스템을 사용하여 측정한다. 실제 계통의 위상각과 추출된 위상각 사이의 오차는 기준 전류나 전압에 더 큰 고조파를 야기한다. 본 논문은 계통 고장에 강인한 PLL 시스템의 제어기를 제안한다.

This paper presents an wideband stripline balun. And, the proposed balun is composed of one power divider and two phase converters on stripline substrate. The target characteristics of the proposed balun is the combination loss of below -0.05 dB, an amplitude imbalance of ${\pm}0.5\;dB$ and a phase imbalance of $180{\pm}10$ degrees, with the reflection coefficient(S11) of below -10 dB over frequencies ranging from 500 to 1500 MHz. The fabricated balun occupies the area of $12(W){\times}220(L){\times}2.3(T)\;mm3$. Experimental measurement shows that the fabricated balun has an amplitude imbalance of ${\pm}0.7\;dB$, a phase imbalance of $180{\pm}8$ degrees and an insertion loss of about -2 dB with the reflection coefficient(S11) of below -10 dB over frequencies ranging from 500 to 1,500 MHz.

In this paper, the six-port phase correlator using $90^{\circ}$ hybrid branch-line coupler and three-arm branch $90^{\circ}$ hybrid coupler were designed. The performances for two six-port phase correlators were analyzed by using ADS2003A tool. Three-arm six-port phase collerator provides more wide dynamic frequency range than that of six-port using the conventional hybrid coupler in range of circa five times. Six-port phase correlators were fabricated to evaluate the performance of two six-port phase correlators. The measured performances for two six-port phase correlators show the good accordance with the simulation data.

The EM(Engineering Model) LO(Local Oscillator) is designed for Ka-band satellite transponder. The VCO(Voltage Controlled Oscillator) is implemented using a high impedance inverter coupled with dielectric resonator to improve the phase noise performance out of the loop bandwidth. The phase of VCO is locked to that of a stable OCXO(Oven Controlled Crystal Oscillator) by using a SPD(Sampling Phase detector) to improve phase noise performance in the loop bandwidth. This LO exhibits the harmonic rejection characteristics above 43.83 dBc and requires 15 V and 160 mA. The phase noise characteristics are performed as -102.5 dBc/Hz at 10 KHz offset frequency and -104.0 dBc/Hz at 100 KHz offset frequency, respectively, with the output power of 13.50 dBm$\pm$0.33 dB over the temperature range of -20~+7$0^{\circ}C$.

In this paper, a novel VCO (Voltage Controlled Oscillator) structure is proposed to achieve the characteristic of low phase noise and a wide frequency tuning range. The proposed scheme adopts an impedance transforming technique to change a series resonance into a parallel resonance for maximizing the susceptance slope parameter. The manufactured VCO shows a frequency tuning bandwidth of 600MHz from 10.1GHz to 10.7GHz with a tuning voltage varying from 0 to 9V, an excellent phase noise below -119dBc/Hz@1MHz offset. The harmonic suppression is measured above 28dB.

A low-cost, high-performance 40 Gb/s clock recovery module using a phase-locked loop(PLL) for a 40 Gb/s optical receiver with the clock-hold function has been designed and implemented. It consists of a clock extractor circuit, an RF mixer and a frequency discriminator for phase/frequency detection, a VC-DRO, a phase shifter, and a clock-hold circuit. The extracted 40 GHz clock is synchronized with a stable 10 GHz VC-DRO. The clock stability and jitter characteristics of the implemented PLL-based clock recovery module are significantly improved as compared with those of the conventional open-loop type clock recovery module with a DR filter. The measured peak-to-peak RMS jitter is about 230 fs. When an input signal is dropped, the 40 GHz clock is maintained continuously by the hold circuit.

We proposed the optical system using two divided halftone images to hide the original image and a joint transform correlator. The encryption procedure is performed by the Fourier transform of the product of each divided image by visual cryptography and the same random image which is generated by computer processing. As a result, we can obtain two Fourier divided images which are used as the encrypted image and the decrypting key, respectively. In the decryption procedure, both the encrypted image and the decrypting key are located on the joint input plane. Then the original image is reconstructed on a CCD camera which is located in the output plane. An autocorrelation term of joint transform correlator contributes to decrypt the original image. To demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed system, computer simulations and noise analysis are performed. The result show that the proposed system is a very useful optical certification system.
