In this letter, the null steering of a circular array is presented using a modified array factor (AF) for a global positioning system (GPS) anti-jam. The seven radiating elements were designed using a mu-zero resonance (MZR) circularly polarized (CP) antenna arranged toward the center. Since the radiating elements, which are arranged toward the center, have a CP characteristic, the AF of the seven radiating elements has to be modified considering the rotation angle of the nth radiating element. The phases of input ports can be calculated to implement a nulling of radiation patterns where the modified AF is zero. To verify the modified AF for null steering in the desired direction, two cases of power dividers operating in $L_2$ band (1.2276 GHz) were fabricated to achieve pattern nulling at a certain angle. The modified AF can be confirmed by a comparing the simulated and measured radiation patterns.

In this thesis, design of a VCO(Voltage controlled Oscillator) with a novel tuning mechanism is presented for the Radar system. This circuit, the 9.5 GHz oscillator is designed and implemented by restructuring microstrip resonator to raise Q value and to require a wide frequency tuning range. This product is fabricated on 2.6 Teflon substrate and device is NE722S01. In this paper, The new microstrip resonator VCO is proposed to achieve the characteristic of a wide frequency tuning range. This microstrip resonator VCO shows the phase noise characteristic of -108.3 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset from the fundamental frequency, the output power of 5.7 dBm and the second harmonic suppression of -38 dBc for the VCO are obtained. The manufacture VCO shows a frequency tuning range of 193.8 MHz. The proposed micro trip resonator VCO can be used for X-band Radar System with required tuning range.

An active balun using current steering for phase correction is presented. The proposed active balun is constructed with two different unit balun structures based on current steering to reduce phase and amplitude errors. This type of topology can be compared with the conventional phase and amplitude correction techniques which do not incorporate the current steering. Designed and fabricated active balun in $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process operates over 0.95 - 1.45 GHz band, showing input reflection coefficient under -15 dB, phase error of $11^{\circ}$ and gain error of 0.5 dB. Gain is measured to be 0.3 dB maximum and power consumption of 7.2 mW is measured.

Recently, IMO(International Maritime Organization) have provided the recommendation of EMI and EMS for radio communication and equipments of marine from SOLAS convention at July 1st 2002. In this paper, we measured EMC environment on the HANBADA, which is Korea Maritime University training ship, and the 88KUMEO of a fishing boat for basic EMC environment of a ship. Measured Band is from 30 MHz to 2 GHz, polarization measurement is processed both vertical and horizontal polarization. We analysed the results in consideration of permissible criteria.

Partial discharge is attendant physical phenomenon on electromagnetic, sounds, lightning and mechanical vibration. In this paper, we simulated GIS and measured the radiated electromagnetic wave emitted from partial discharge in $SF_6$ gas using antenna(30[MHz] ${\sim}$ 2[GHz]) and spectrum analyzer. This paper describes characteristics of radiated electromagnetic waves with distance 1 [m] between antenna and discharge source.

In this article, a novel design of patch antenna with wide band characteristics is presented. The proposed antenna is having electrical dimensions of $0.14{\lambda}{\times}0.11{\lambda}$ (at lower initial frequency) and footprints of $150mm^2$. Structural parameters optimization shows 3.1-23.5 GHz frequency range for a (reflection coefficient) $S_{11}{\leq}-10dB$ and simulated gain 6.8 dB is obtained. An equivalent circuit model is proposed to get an insight view of antenna. Advanced Systems Design (ADS) simulation results are obtain which confirm the validity of proposed model. Degenerated foster canonical form has been used to explain the reactance and capacitive behavior idea of simulated proposed antenna's input impedance later on an equivalent circuit model and smith chart is also suggested. HFSS and CST have been used to analyze antenna behavior. The proposed antenna can be further used for microwave image detection applications.

This paper proposes two types of subharmonic RF receiver front-end (called LMV) where, in a single stage, quadrature voltage-controlled oscillator (QVCO) is stacked on top of a low noise amplifier. Since the QVCO itself plays the role of the single-balanced subharmonic mixer with the dc current reuse technique by stacking, the proposed topology can remove the RF mixer component in the RF front-end and thus reduce the chip size and the power consumption. Another advantage of the proposed topologies is that many challenges of the direct conversion receiver can be easily evaded with the subharmonic mixing in the QVCO itself. The intermediate frequency signal can be directly extracted at the center taps of the two inductors of the QVCO. Using a 65 nm complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology, the proposed subharmonic RF front-ends are designed. Oscillating at around 2.4 GHz band, the proposed subharmonic LMVs are compared in terms of phase noise, voltage conversion gain and double sideband noise figure. The subharmonic LMVs consume about 330 ㎼ dc power from a 1-V supply.

The calibration of the period luminosity relation (PLR) for Galactic Mira variables is one of the principle aims of the VERA project. We observe $H_2O$ maser emission at 22 GHz associated with Mira variables in order to determine their distances based on annual parallaxes. We conduct multi-epoch VLBI observations over 1-2 years with a typical interval of one month using VERA in order to obtain annual parallaxes with an accuracy of better than than 10%. Recently, the annnual parallax of T Lep was determined to be $3.06{\pm}0.04$ mas corresponding to a distance of $327{\pm}4pc$ (Nakagawa et al., 2014). The circumstellar distribution and kinematics of $H_2O$ masers was also revealed. With accurate distances to the sources, calibrations of K-band absolute magnitudes ($M_K$) can be improved compared to conventional studies. By compiling Mira variables whose distances were determined with astrometric VLBI, we obtained a PLR of $M_K=3.51logP+1.37{\pm}0.07$.

본 논문에서는 새로운 형태의 CSP (chip site package)를 이용하여 정합소자 린 바이어스소자를 MMIC상에 완전집적한 Ku/K밴드 광대역 증폭기 MMIC에 관하여 보고한다. 새로운 형태의 CSP에 대해서는 이방성 도전필름인 ACF (anisotropic conductive film)을 이용하였으며, 그 결과 MMIC 패키지 프로세스가 간략화 되었고, CSP MMIC의 저 가격화가 실현되었다. MMIC상에 집적하기 위한 DC 바이어스 용량소자로서는 고유전율의 STO (SrTiO3) 필름 커패시터가 이용되었다. 제작된 CSP MMIC는 광대역 RF동작특성 (12-24 GHz에서 12.5$\pm$1.5 dB의 이득치, -6 dB이하의 반사계수, 18.5$\pm$1.5 dBm의 PldB) 을 보였다. 본 논문은 K 또는 Ku 밴드의 주파수대역에 있어서의 완전집적화 CSP MMIC에 관한 최초의 보고이다.

최근 다양한 센서를 활용하는 응용분야의 증가로, 가변전송률을 지원하는 무선 통신 시스템의 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 이를 위해 2.45 GHz 주파수 대역을 사용하는 IEEE 802.15.4 LR-WPAN 시스템이 보편적으로 활용되고 있으나, LR-WPAN 시스템은 250 kbps의 단일 전송률만을 지원하고 있어 다양한 센서 네트워크 시스템에 응용되기에는 한계가 존재한다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 31.25 kbps, 62.5 kbps, 125 kbps의 가변 전송률을 지원할 수 있는 프리앰블 구조를 정의하고, 주파수 오프셋에 강인한 이중 상관알고리즘을 기반으로 저복잡도 특성을 갖는 시간 동기부의 하드웨어 구조를 설계하였다. 제안된 시간 동기부는 18.36 K의 logic slices 및 4개의 DSP48s로 합성되었으며, 기존의 구조 대비 각각 79.1%와 99.4%의 감소를 보였다.
