The probability of an oscillation occurrence in M/W frequency conversion repeaters is low on account of the different operating frequency of the input and output signals. The probability of interference caused by the M/W frequency conversion repeaters to other systems is also low because the systems are used in the line-of-sight. Therefore M/W frequency conversion repeaters are generally used for retransmitting the signal received from base station to the islands. This paper describes the design and implementation of analog predistorter for M/W frequency conversion repeaters in mobile communications. The M/W repeaters convert IF frequency of 1010+/-10MHz to RF frequency of 11GHz. A predistorter can be designed for the M/W repeater operating in either IF or M/W frequency. In this paper IF predistorter operated in 1010MHz is designed and implemented because a M/W predistorter operated in 11GHz is difficult to implement. The IF predistorter can linearize RF modules in the repeater followed by IF stages. The performance test results show that the implemented analog predistorter improves ACPR of 10dB at the output power of 25dBm with the signal frequency of 10.805GHz.

This paper presents a low temperature co-fire ceramics(LTCC) Upconverter for a Ka-band OBS satellite transponder in order for size reduction which is one of the most important requirement for satellite components. A S-band low-pass filter(LPF), a K-band band-pass filter(BPF), and an upconverting MMIC mixer are embedded in the multi-layer structure of the upconverter. All spurious can be selectively rejected by employing a modified Elliptic low pass filter with a multi-pole structure for the S-band LPF. Also an improved performance of out-of-band rejection can be obtained. At the K-band BPF design a layer coupled configuration is employed. The upconverting mixer is an MMIC diode mixer with a double-balanced configuration. Conversion loss and isolation of the upconverter are 9 dB and 51 dBc, respectively. The size of the LTCC upconverter is only $8{\times}7{\times}0.6mm^3$ which is one-third for the thin-film based upconverter.

In this paper, we design and implement the Combline Bandpass Filters for the satellite transponder by using the least-squares curve-fitting method. The Combline Bandpass Filters are located front of the mixer and behind of it, which is the component of down converter. Comparing with the filters which have $\lambda$/4 resonance length. Combline Filter has wide range of stop-band by using $\lambda$/8. So, it is useful to the satellite transponder owing to its low mass and small size. The filters described are realized as coupled rectangular coaxial transmission lines. The choice of this type is due to the ease of machining and wide variations in coupling coefficients rather than the use of the round rod resonators. We determine 800 MHz bandwidths for the combline bandpass filters. By using Chebyshev filter function, we design and implement 4-pole combline filters.

Digital DBS service using Korea Sat starts at Korea Telecom's Yong-in transmission site. Total 6 transmitting stations are needed. At each transmitting station, 4 TV programs are compressed and multiplexed using MPEG-2, modulated into IF, RF signals, then finally transmitted through antenna. At DBS transponder, received signal is down converted, amplified and re-transmitted to earth. At receiver, signal is received by 45cm dish antenna, then wanted program is selected, demultiplexed and decoded. Transmission performance of BER lOE-ll is implemented by using FEe coding and QPSK modulation. For pay TV management, conditional access system, smart card and modem are used.
