In this paper, the performance of Au / $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$ (BST) / Magnesium oxide (MgO) two-layered electrically tunable band-pass Filters (BPFs) is demonstrated. The devices consist of microstrip, coplanar waveguide (CPW), and conductor-backed coplanar waveguide (CBCPW) structures. These BST thin film band-pass filters have been designed by the 2.5 D field simulator, IE3D, Zeland Inc., and fabricated by thin film process. The simulation results, using the 2-pole microstrip, CPW, and CBCPW band-pass filters, show the center frequencies of 5.89 GHz, 5.88 GHz, and 5.69 GHz, and the corresponding insertion losses are 2.67 dB, 1.14 dB, and 1.60 dB, with 3 %, 9 %, and 7 % bandwidth, respectively. The measurement results show the center frequencies of 6.4 GHz, 6.14 GHz, and 6.04 GHz, and their corresponding insertion losses are 6 dB, 4.41 dB, and 5.41 dB, respectively, without any bias voltage. With the bias voltage of 40 V, the center frequencies for the band-pass filters are measured to be 6.61 GHz, 6.31 GHz, and 6.21 GHz, and their insertion losses are observed to be 7.33 dB, 5.83 dB, and 6.83 dB, respectively. From the experiment, the tuning range for the band-pass filters are determined as about 3 % ~ 8 %.

In this paper, a triple band-notched UWB antennas using a spiral resonator and a complementary split ring resonator is proposed as two types. The band-rejection characteristic of the designed antenna is analyzed through the structure and equivalent circuit model of spiral resonator and CSRR. The measured results of first type antenna show that a VSWR less than 2 was satisfied with a resonant frequency in the range of 1.16~12 GHz and it can be obtained the band-stop performance at 3.3~3.85 GHz, 5.15~6.1 GHz, and 8.025~8.5 GHz. The measured results of second type antenna show that a VSWR less than 2 was satisfied with this antenna works from 1.79 to 12 GHz and it can be achieved the band-notched performance at 3.3~3.88 GHz, 5.12~5.94 GHz, and 8.025~8.51 GHz. Through the measured results, the designed antenna was satisfied UWB band except for triple notched bands.

In this paper, the parallel coupled line(PCL) band-pass filter satisfying IEEE 802.11a (a:$5.15{\sim}5.25$, b:$5.25{\sim}5.35$, c:$5.725{\sim}5.875$ [GHz]) has been designed for 5[GHz]band W-Lan RX-System applications. The designed PCL Band-Pass filter is of advantage to make a design formula that is small, light and approximate accuracy. It choose a microstrip plane figure because it is possible that a multiplicity of resonator was designed. It was shown that bandwidth was 14% from 5.15GHz to 5.92GHz at the -3dB designed filter. As a result, it is enough to use the designed filter at W-LAN RX-system of the 5GHz band.

In this paper, we proposed the small planar monopole antenna with modified ground plane for UWB communications. The proposed antenna not only shows Ultra-Wideband characteristic(3.1~10.6 GHz) suitable for UWB communications but has partially notched-band characteristic to reject 5 GHz WLAN band(5.15~5.35 GHz, 5.470~5.825 GHz). The proposed antenna improved impedance matching through two slits on ground plane, and the rejection band was induced by two ${\lambda}$/4 open stubs on center of two slits. Fabricated antenna satisfied VSWR${\leq}$2 in 2.88~10.83 GHz except for the band rejection of 5.08~5.83 GHz.

In this paper, we designed and implemented an ultra wideband (UWB) antenna with 5G mobile communication and WLAN bands rejection characteristics. The proposed antenna consists of a planar radiation patch with two slots, parasitic elements on both sides of the strip line and ground plane on back side. The upper n-type slot contributes for 5G mobile communication band (3.42~3.70 GHz) rejection and the lower n-type slot contributes for wireless local area network (WLAN) band (5.15~5.825 GHz) rejection. Parasitic elements were used in order to satisfy the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) less than or equal to 2.0 for UWB band (3.10~10.60 GHz) except two rejection bands. The Ansoft's high frequency structure simulator (HFSS) was used for antenna design and simulations. The simulated antenna showed dual rejection bands of 3.36~3.71 GHz and 5.13 ~ 5.92 GHz in UWB band, and measured result for the implemented antenna showed dual rejection bands of 3.40~3.72 GHz and 5.08~5.858 GHz. Simulated and measured VSWRs are less than or equal to 2.0 for all UWB band except dual rejection bands.

In this paper, A planar UWB antenna with notched WLAN band, 802.11a band (5.15 ~ 5.825GHz), by using slot and slit is designed by using CST Microwave Studio. The notched bandwidth can be controlled by the length and width of the slot and slit in the patch and ground plane and it's radiation characteristics are examined through the experiments. The bandwidth based on the -10dB return loss level can be covered the full UWB band (3.1 ~ 10.6GHz) with a notched WLAN band (5.147 ~ 5.83GHz). Also, the experimental radiation pattern is almost omnidirectional in the H-plane.

In this paper, high efficient power amplifier with dual band has been realized. Dual band power amplifier have used modify stub matching for single FET, center frequency 2.14GHz and 5.2GHz respectively. The dual-band operation of the CRLH TL is achieved by the frequency offset and the nonlinear phase slope of the CRLH TL for the matching network of the power amplifier. Because the control of the all harmonic components is very difficult m dual-band, we have managed only the second- and third-harmonics to obtain the high efficiency with the CRLH TL in dual-band. Dual-band characteristics in the output has to balance. Two operating frequencies are chosen at 2.14 GHz and 5.2 GHz in this work. The measured results show that the output power of 28.56 dBm and 29 dBm was obtained at 2.14 GHz and 5.2 GHz, respectively. At this point, we have obtained the power-added efficiency (PAE) of 65.824 % and 69.86 % at two operation frequencies, respectively.

For the size reduction, we propose a microstrip-fed monopole antenna with half X-slot in the radiation patch and cover WLAN dual band 2.4 GHz band (2.4 ~ 2.484 GHz) and 5 GHz band (5.15 ~ 5.825 GHz). The frequency characteristics such as impedance bandwidth and resonant frequencies were satisfied by optimizing the numerical values of various parameters, while the reflection loss in 5 GHz was improved by using defected ground structure (DGS). The proposed antenna is designed and fabricated on a FR-4 substrate with dielectric constant 4.3, thickness of 1.6 mm, and size of $24{\times}41mm^2$. The measured impedance bandwidths (${\mid}S_{11}{\mid}{\leq}-10dB$) of fabricated antenna are 450 MHz (2.27 ~ 2.72 GHz) in 2.4 GHz band and 1340 MHz (4.79 ~ 6.13 GHz) in 5 GHz band which sufficiently satisfied with the IEEE 802. 11n standard in dual band. In particular, radiation patterns which are stable as well as relatively omni-direction could be obtained, and the gain of antennas in each band was 1.31 and 1.98 dBi respectively.

Dual-band microstrip antenna is designed for industrial-scientific-medical(ISM) band of 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz using finite-difference time-domain method(FDTD). Cross patch 130 by aperture in the ground plane of microstrip line is proposed as radiation element of antenna which is 2 rectangular patch is overlapped. To design antenna, change of input impedance is examined by length change of aperture and stub. And center frequency and - 10 dB bandwidth are investigated by change of length and width in radiation element. Measured result about reflection loss confirm that agree well with simulation results of FDTD and IE3D. And 3 dB beam width, front to back ratio and maximum gain is presented by measuring radiation pattern of antenna in frequency 2.43 GHz and 5.79 GHz.

In this paper, a CPW band-pass filter with a rejection band is proposed for UWB(Ultra-Wideband) communication systems. The proposed filter has a band-pass characteristic of wide-band by inserting only a slot in $50{\Omega}$ transmission line. To obtain the band-rejection function at WLAN frequency band($5.15{\sim}5.725GHz$), the designed filter is combined with folded slot resonators on the ground plane of the CPW structure. The fabricated CPW band-pass filter shows a compact size of $15.35{\times}13.60mm$, a wide passband of 2.8 GHz to 9.8 GHz and the narrow stop-band of 5.15 GHz to 5.71 GHz for 3-dB bandwidth. Also, the measured group delay is less than 400 psec throughout the operation frequency band except the rejection band.
