This paper presents the development of InGaAsP multiple quantum well asymmetric Fabry-Perot modulators(AFPM), which have a vertical structure and high performance and describes measurements of devices operating at 10GHz for next generation broadband wireless communication applications such as picocell systems. Advantages of the AFPM include low drive voltage, which is less than -2V, and -3dB coupling loss, good flatness of the frequency response and simple fiber alignment. A simple link demonstration has been introduced, resulting in 92dB/Hz spurious free dynamic range and 40dB inter-modulation distortion. This modulator could be use for broadband radio over fiber systems such as picocell and multiple RF links.

The characteristic variation of 3-dimensional (3-D) solenoid-type embedded inductors is investigated. Four different structures of a 3-D inductor are fabricated by using a low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) process, and their s-parameters are measured between 50 MHz and 5 GHz. The circuit model parameters of each building block are optimized and extracted using the partial element equivalent circuit method and an HSPICE circuit simulator. Based on the model parameters, the characteristics of the test structures such as self-resonant frequency, inductance, and quality (Q) factor are analyzed, and predictive modeling is applied to the structures composed of a combination of the modeled building blocks. In addition, characteristic variations of the 3-D inductors with different structures using extracted building blocks are also investigated. This approach can provide a characteristic estimation of 3-D solenoid embedded inductors for structural variations.

Recently, the UWB (ultra wide-band) wireless communication technology, which provides high data transmission and is capable of linearly trading between throughput and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), has drawn much attention for short-range wireless networks. Fully exploiting its notable features and minimizing its interference to coexisting other systems require the knowledge of SNR's at receivers In this paper, we propose an algorithm for estimating the pulse energy to noise ratio Ep/No of UWB signal with utilization of outputs from a correlator at a receiver, and evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm through computer simulation. According to simulation results, the maximum standard deviation is about 1 13 dB with a block size of 500. Except for Ep/No=O and 2 dB cases with a block size of 500, no errors greater than 3 dB were observed in all the remaining experiments. Generally speaking, it improves as the true Ep/No, increases and as the block size increases A notable feature of the proposed algorithm is that it does not reduce the effective throughput because the estimation process does not require sending additional training signal of any specific format.

In recent years, construction worker safety in construction site is important. Especially, the frequent collapse accidents have happened in tunnels, utility tunnel and underground structure, so that the importance of worker safety is greatly emphasized. It is difficult to communicate with other workers in underground space, using the current cable or wireless communicator. When the accident is occurred, it can't rescue workers. This is the reason that it has a deficiency to find a location of survivor and communicate rescure crew and field workers. In this paper we extract the optimal technical factors of USFSS(Underground Structure Field Support System) based on integrated technique of wireless communication and location awareness. And USFSS developed in this study is suited for bad environment of underground structure construction and able to track 3D position of laborer and communicate mutually.

In this paper, a dual-band on-body antenna operating at MICS and ISM band for a wireless medical repeater system is proposed and the antenna performance including the human body effect is investigated. The designed dual-band antenna is comprised of a top patch for ISM band and bottom patch for MICS band. Simulation and measurement was carried out in order to analyze the effects of human body on antenna performance considering real use. The proposed antenna has required impedance bandwidth enough to cover both MICS and ISM bands. The measured peak gains were -12.47 dBi and 1.71 dBi at the each center frequency of MICS and ISM bands, respectively. Furthermore, the antenna has the maximum radiation directed toward the inside of the human body in the MICS band and directed toward the outside in the ISM band. In addition, the return loss property of the antenna is insensitive to human body effects so that the proposed antenna is well suited for the on-body wireless medical repeater system.

In this paper, Sub harmonic mixer using anti-parallel diode pair is designed for 5.8 GHz Wireless LAN. Conventional mixers mix LO with RF and obtain IF signal from the difference between LO and RF. As frequency increase, LO signal is required increasing LO power, better phase noise, stable LO. But, using APDP, the SHP mixer mix the harmonics of LO signal. Therefore, Sub harmonic mixer is advantage that necessary LO signal frequency was used to operate the 1/2. When LO power is 3 dBm, the conversion loss of manufactured SHP mixer is 12.83 dB. The isolation of LO/IF, 2LO/IF, RF/IF and LO/RF is 39.17 dB, 58 dB, 34 dB, 67.9 dB. And IIP3 is 8 dBm.

In this paper, we design and implement a IF(intermediate frequency) module for WLL(wireless local loop) CDMA(code division multiple access) basestation. The implemented IF transceiver is consists of transmitter, receiver and local oscillator. The considered signal bandwidth is 10 MHz and the local carrier frequency is 40 MHz. As test results, the If transmitter output power is -5dBm $\pm3dB$when the baseband input is -10dBm $\pm3dB$, and the IF receiver output power is -10dBm $\pm3dB$when the IF input is -5dBm $\pm3dB$. Also the AGC(automatic gain control) circuit has dynamic range of 9 dB from -7dBm to +2dBm with output power 2dBm. And the group delay characteristic is analyzed by comparing the phase delay from 1 MHz to 5 MHz and the phase distortion is very low. We can conclude that this IF system can be applied to high speed data rate communication system.
