CMOS LC VCO for tri-bind wireless LAN applications was designed in 1.8V 0.18$\mu$m CMOS process. PMOS transistors were chosen for VCO core to reduce flicker noise. The possible operation was verified for 5.8GHz band (5.725$\~$5.825GHz), 5.2GHz band (5.150$\~$5.325GHz), and 2.4GHz band (2.412$\~$2.484GHz) using the switchable L-C resonators. To linearize its frequency-voltage gain (Kvco), optimized multiple MOS varactor biasing technique was used for capacitance linearization and PLL stability improvement. VCO core consumed 2mA current and $570{\mu}m{\times}600{\mu}m$ die area. The phase noise was lower than -110dBc/Hz at 1MHz offset for tri-band frequencies.

In this paper, we designed and implemented an ultra wideband(UWB) antenna with band rejection characteristics. The proposed antenna consists of a planar radiation patch with slots and ground planes on both sides. Due to the slots in the radiation patch, the antenna shows band rejection characteristics. U-type slot contributes for wireless local area network(WLAN, 5.15~5.825 GHz) band rejection and n-type slot contributes for X-Band(7.25~8.395 GHz) band rejection. To make voltage standing wave ratio(VSWR) less than 2.0 for UWB frequency band except rejection bands, the shapes of planar radiation patch and ground plane was modified. The Ansoft 's high frequency structure simulator(HFSS) was used for the design process and simulations of the proposed antenna. The simulated antenna showed VSWR less than 2.0 for all UWB band excepts for dual rejection bands of 5.15 ~ 5.94 GHz and 7.02 ~ 8.45 GHz. And measured VSWR for the implemented antenna is less than 2.0 for all UWB band of 3.10~10.60 GHz excluding dual rejection bands of 5.12~5.95 GHz and 7.20~8.58 GHz.

In this paper, we design and implement an Ultra-Wide Band (UWB, 3.1~10.6 GHz) antenna with 5G mobile communication (3.42~3.70 GHz) and Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN, 5.15~5.825 GHz) bands rejection characteristics. The proposed antenna consists of a planar radiation patch with two slots. The upper slot contributes to reject 5G mobile communication band and the lower slot contributes to reject WLAN band. The Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) values of the proposed antenna show good performances in whole UWB band except for rejection bands based on VSWR 2.0. The proposed UWB antenna was simulated using High Frequency Struture Simulator (HFSS) by Ansoft. The simulated antenna showed dual rejection bands of 3.31~3.92 GHz and 5.04~5.90 GHz in UWB band, and measured antenna showed dual rejection bands of 3.35~3.97 GHz and 5.06~5.97 GHz. The largest VSWR values measured at each rejection band are 13.60 at 3.64 GHz and 10.25 at 5.52 GHz. The measured maximum gain is 5.31 dBi at 10.00 GHz. The lowest gains for the measured antenna at rejection bands are -8.73 dBi at 3.70 GHz and -4.36 dBi at 5.56 GHz.

Recently, many of the mobile network operators or telcos are introducing the LTE service in order to effectively cope with an explosive increasing mobile traffics due to an expansion of the use of smart phones. The 1.8GHz, 2.6GHz, and 800MHz band classes are most widely used for LTE. In particular, the 1.8GHz band class is the most useful one in terms of the reusability of the existing (2G) network, global harmonization, bandwidth, eco-system of equipments and devices, and so on. In recent years, major countries in the world have allocated the 1.8GHz band spectrum in a wide bandwidth unit suitable for the upcoming LTE-Advanced service. This paper surveyed the 1.8GHz band spectrum allocation policies of the 12 OECD countries, including Republic of Korea. From the survey, we have found that they rebuilt or refarmed the existing holders' bands, recovered the public (i.e., military)-use bands, and allocated the bands in a wide bandwidth and in an equal or similar size.

In this paper, we propose a quadruple band antenna for GPS/WLAN/WiMAX application. The proposed antenna has quadruple band characteristics by considering the interconnection of four strip lines and DGS on the ground place. The total substrate size is 20.0 mm (W1) ⨯27.0 mm (L1), thickness (h) 1.0 mm, and the dielectric constant is 4.4, which is made of 20.0 mm (W2)⨯ 27.0 mm (L8 + L6+ L10) antenna size on the FR-4 substrate. From the fabrication and measurement results, bandwidths of 60 MHz (1.525 to 1.585 GHz) bandwidth for GPS band, 825 MHz (3.31 to 4.135 GHz) bandwidth for WiMAX band and 480 MHz (2.395 to 2.975 GHz) and 385 MHz (5.10 to 5.485 GHz) bandwidth for WLAN band were obtained on the basis of -10 dB. Also, gain and radiation pattern characteristics are measured and shown in the frequency of triple band as required.

In this paper, we designed more improving a dual-band power amplifier than the transceiver of RFID reader that operates at 910 MHz and 2.45 GHz. A dual-band power amplifier has two circuits. One matching circuit is composed lumped element in the band of 910 MHz. The other matching circuit using distributed element in the high band of 2.45 GHz. So, this dual-band power amplifier works as Band Rejection Filter in the band of 910 MHz but in the high band of 2.45 GHz works as Band Pass Filter. Therefore, this is composed a microstrip transmission line. A power amplifier is showed gains of 8 dB output power at 910 MHz and 1.5 dB output power at 2.45 GHz. If input power is 10 dBm, both of bands output 20 dBm.

The proposed antenna is designed with a size of 16.0 mm (W1) × 48.0 mm (L8) on a dielectric substrate of 18.0 mm (W) × 50.0 mm (L) × 1.0 mm(h). and a slit of 2.9 mm (W7) × 4.0 mm (L7) is inserted into the ground plane of 18.0 mm (W) × 18.7 mm (L6). Based on -10 dB production and measurement results, it obtained 60.8 MHz (8,730~9,338 MHz), 310 MHz (2.33~2.64 GHz) in the 2.4 GHz band, 420MHz (3.39~3.81 GHz) in the 3.4 GHz band, and 2,070 MHz (4.62~6.69 GHz) in the 5.0 GHz. In addition, the gain and radiation pattern characteristics of the quadrant band are measured from the measurement results anechoic chamber.
