  • This paper presents development of a LNA operating at 1.71 ∼ 1.18 GHz used for a receiver of KOREA PCS base station and transponder. Using resistive decoupling circuits, a signal at low frequency is dissipated by a resistor. This design method increases the stability of the LNA and suitable for input stage matching. The LNA consists of low noise GaAs FET ATF-10136 and internally matched VNA-25. The LNA is fabricated with both the RF circuit and the self-bias circuits in aluminum housing.

  • Fast and accurate power bus design (FAPUD) method for multi-layers high-speed digital boards is devised for the power supply network design tool for accurate and precise high speed board. FAPUD is constructed, based on two main algorithms of the PBEC (Path Based Equivalent Circuit) model and the network synthesis method. The PBEC model exploits simple arithmetic expressions of the lumped 1-D circuit model from the electrical parameters of a 2-D power distribution network. The circuit level design based on PBEC is carried with the proposed regional approach. The circuit level design directly calculates and determines the size of on-chip decoupling capacitors, the size and the location of off-chip decoupling capacitors, and the effective inductances of the package power bus. As a design output, a lumped circuit model and a pre-layout of the power bus including a whole decoupling capacitors are obtained after processing FAPUD. In the tuning procedure, the board re-optimization considering simultaneous switching noise (SSN) added by I/O switching can be carried out because the I/O switching effect on a power supply noise can be estimated over the operation frequency range with the lumped circuit model. Furthermore, if a design changes or needs to be tuned, FAPUD can modify design by replacing decoupling capacitors without consuming other design resources. Finally, FAPUD is accurate compared with conventional PEEC-based design tools, and its design time is 10 times faster than that of conventional PEEC-based design tools.

  • In the present study, a dual-band multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna covering WLAN frequency bands of 2.4 GHz (2.4 ~ 2.484 GHz) and 5 GHz (5.15 ~ 5.825 GHz) is newly presented to avoid use of decoupling structure for increasing isolation. The antenna consists of two L-shaped slots with n-shaped slots etched on the floating ground plane surrounded by open ended L-shaped slots which are placed in the left and right corner of PCB respectively. The proposed antenna is designed and fabricated on one side of FR4 substrate with dielectric constant of 4.3, thickness of 1.6 mm, and size of $50{\times}50mm2$. It has been observed that the measured impedance bandwidths ($S_{11}{\leq}-10dB$) are 0.3 GHz (2.28 ~ 2.58 GHz) in 2.4 GHz frequency band and 0.89 GHz (5.11 ~ 6 GHz) in 5 GHz frequency band respectively. In addition, It has been observed that the whole efficiency are more than 80 % in the whole operating frequency band and envelope correlation coefficient of the antenna is less than 0.05 as a very small value in spite of nothing of the decoupling structure.

  • Evapotranspriation (ET) was measured by eddy covariance method in two key ecosystems in Korea: the Seolmacheon site (a mixed forest in a complex terrain, SMK) and the Cheongmicheon site (a homogeneous rice paddy, CRK). By using the multi-year observations (SMK: Sep. 2007 - Dec. 2009, CRK: Aug. 2008 - Dec. 2009), we quantified ET and analyzed its temporal variations and control mechanisms based on the radiatively coupled combination equation. During the study period, the accumulated precipitation was about 3213 mm for the SMK site, of which about 30% (i.e., 990 mm), returned to the atmosphere as ET. At the CRK site from Jan. - Dec., 2009, the annual ET was 553 mm, which was about 40% of the annual rainfall (of 1401 mm). Both sites showed a characteristic seasonality with mid-season depression in ET that are associated with the reduced amount of available energy during the monsoon season. The decoupling parameter (${\Omega}^*$), which indicates the measure of interaction between vegetation and the atmosphere, averaged about 0.4 for the SMK site and the CRK site during the growing season. The ET from both sites was more influenced by air saturation deficit and surface conductance than available energy.

  • In this study, the effect of an unsteady flow field around a body of aerostatic/aerodynamic forces were investigated using rectangular cylinders (B/D = 2, 3, 4, 5). Proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) was introduced to the analysis of the fluctuating pressure field that was measured on the stationary/oscillatory B/D=4 rectangular cylinder, and the characteristics of the proper functions with flow patterns were identified. In addition, the physical decoupling and interactions in the different co-existing flow patterns were investigated through POD. The comparison with the identified proper function associated with a particular flow pattern revealed that the Karman vortex is almost not affected by the separation bubble, but that the Karman vortex considerably interferes in the development of the separation bubble around the trailing edge. It can be considered that the Karman vortex induces the increment of the curvature of the substantial separated flow.

  • This paper proposes a novel compact MIMO antenna which has miniaturized radiators and their row correlation coefficient, working for the LTE mobile communication, and its SAR is observed. Each of the proposed radiators has a shape of staircase and the bandwidth is twice larger than the conventional PIFA as 600MHz(21%) in 2.5 GHz - 3.15 GHz. And the area of the radiators is $16.5mm{\times}9.7mm$ proper for a handheld device. Also, by adding a planar mushroom decoupling structure between the radiators, the isolation is improved. The design has been carried out using the commercial full-wave time-domain EM solver and the finalized MIMO antenna has the return loss less than -10 dB in the LTE band, the isolation better than 20 dB and the efficiency more than 90% with the gain of 4.3 dB. Regarding the SAR of the antenna, it is observed that the average SAR value of 1g is estimated as 1.37W/Kg, which is lower than the SAR standard.

  • Multi-layer ceramic capacitors as decoupling capacitor were fabricated by dielectric composition with a high dielectric constant. The fabricated decoupling capacitors were embedded in the PCB of the 10G RF transceiver module and evaluated for the characteristics of electrical noise by the level of AC input voltage. In order to further improve the electrical properties of the $BaTiO_3$ based composite, glass frit, MgO, $Y_2O_3$, $Mn_3O$, $V_2O_5$, $BaCO_3$, $SiO_2$, and $Al_2O_3$ were used as additives. The electrical properties of the composites were determined by various amounts of additives and optimum sintering temperature. As a result of the optimized composite, it was possible to obtain a density of $5.77g/cm^3$, a dielectric constant of 1994, and an insulation resistance of $2.91{\times}10^{12}{\Omega}$ at an additive content of 5wt% and a sintering temperature of $1250^{\circ}C$. After forming a $2.5{\mu}m$ green sheet using the doctor blade method, a total of 77 layers were laminated and sintered at $1180^{\circ}C$. A decoupling capacitor with a size of $0.6mm(W){\times}0.3mm(L){\times}0.3mm(T)$ (width, length and thickness, respectively) and a capacitance of 100 nF was embedded using a PCB process for the 10G RF Transceiver modules. In the range of AC input voltage 400mmV @ 500kHz to 2200mV @ 900kHz, the embedded 10G RF Transceiver modules evaluated that it has better electrical performance than the non-embedded modules.

  • In this paper, a LNA(Low Noise Amplifier) has been developed, which is operating at L-band i.e., 1452∼1492 MHz for satellite DAB(Digital Audio Brcadcasting) receiver. The LNA is designed to improve input and output reflection coefficient and VSWR(Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) by balanced amplifier. The LNA consists of low noise amplification stage and gain amplification stage, which make a using of GaAs FET ATF-10136 and VNA-25 respectively, and is fabricated by hybrid method. To supply most suitable voltage and current, active bias circuit is designed Active biasing offers the advantage that variations in $V_P$ and $I_{DSS}$ will not necessitate a change in either the source or drain resistor value for a given bias condition. The active bias network automatically sets $V_{gs}$ for the desired drain voltage and drain current. The LNA is fabricated on FR-4 substrate with RF circuit and bias circuit, and integrated in aluminum housing. As a reults, the characteristics of the LNA implemented more than 32 dB in gain. 0.2 dB in gain flatness. lower than 0.95 dB in noise figure, 1.28 and 1.43 each input and output VSWR, and -13 dBm in $P_{1dB}$.

  • This work describes a l0b 150 MSample/s CMOS pipelined A/D converter (ADC) based on advanced bootsuapping techniques for higher input bandwidth than a sampling rate. The proposed ADC adopts a typical multi-step pipelined architecture, employs the merged-capacitor switching technique which improves sampling rate and resolution reducing by $50\%$ the number of unit capacitors used in the multiplying digital-to-analog converter. On-chip current and voltage references for high-speed driving capability of R & C loads and on-chip decimator circuits for high-speed testability are implemented with on-chip decoupling capacitors. The proposed AU is fabricated in a 0.18 um 1P6M CMOS technology. The measured differential and integral nonlinearities are within $-0.56{\~}+0.69$ LSB and $-1.50{\~}+0.68$ LSB, respectively. The prototype ADC shows the signal-to-noise-and-distortion ratio (SNDR) of 52 dB at 150 MSample/s. The active chip area is 2.2 mm2 (= 1.4 mm ${\times}$ 1.6 mm) and the chip consumes 123 mW at 150 MSample/s.

  • The Danyang area consists of the thrust and folded sedimentary rocks of Paleozoic and Mesozoic Era. The area is bounded by major tectonic units which are the Gagdong Thrust to the west and the Okdong Fault to the east. According to the structural analyses, the area is affected by polyphase deformation. This study establishes deformational sequence in the area. Mylonite zone along the Okdong Fault corresponds to the first generation of structures ($D_1$). $D_1$-structures are discrete shear zone in the Jangsan Formation and bedding parallel extensional deformation in the Cambro-Ordovician sequences. $D_2$-structures were formed prior to the sedimentation of the Jurassic Bansong Group, which are the NW-trending fold and linear structures. After sedimentation of the Bansong Group, the area is strongly affected by the Daebo Orogeny which produces NE-trending thrusts, folds and linear structures. Earlier structures were tightened and rotated toward NE. Some thrust faults did not propagate into the Bansong Group. It is suggested either the Bansong Group acted as a decoupling horizon or rest on unconformably on the thrust faults. The area is weakly affected by $D_4$-event of which structures are E-W trending folds and faults. The Jugryeong Fault clearly cut the earlier folds and thrust faults. The rocks within the fault zone were sliced and rotated during the strike-slip movements. Block rotation and transpressional features can be commonly observed.
