Ultralow-noise soliton pulse generation over a wider Fourier frequency range is highly desirable for many high-precision applications. Here, we realize a low-phase-noise soliton pulse generation by transferring the low phase noise of a mode-locked laser to a silica microcomb. A 21.956-GHz and a 9.9167-GHz Kerr soliton combs are synchronized to a 2-GHz and a 2.5-GHz mode-locked laser through a fractional optoelectronic phase-locked loop, respectively. The phase noise of the microcomb was suppressed by up to ~40 dB at 1-Hz Fourier frequency. This result provides a simple method for low-phase-noise soliton pulse generation, thereby facilitating extensive applications.

In this paper, a monopole type antenna applicable to WLAN and WiMAX standard frequency bands is designed and fabricated. The proposed antenna is designed to have rectangular ring and rectangular patch based on microstrip feeding for triple band characteristics and inserted two stub in the top of the rectangular ring patch to enhance impedance bandwidth characteristics. The proposed antenna has $18.0mm(2W_1+W_2){\times}33.0mm(L_7+L_8+L_9)$ on a dielectric substrate of $27.0mm(W_1){\times}44mm(L_1){\times}1.0mm$ size. From the fabrication and measurement results, impedance bandwidths of 660MHz (2,08 to 2.74GHz) for 2.4/2.5MHz band, 488MHz (3.40 to 3.88GHz) for 3.5MHz band, and 2,180MHz (4.61 to 6.79GHz) for 5,000MHz band were obtained based on the impedance bandwidth. The proposed antenna also obtained the measured gain and radiation pattern in the anechoic chamber.

In this paper, We have designed miniature microstrip patch antenna based on fractal structure using L-shaped feeding structure for 4G mobile communication applications. Miniature antenna has achieved by the presence of unusual fundamental resonant mode which we call "crossed-diagonal"(CD)current. Using CST Microwave Studio 5.0, patch antenna was designed. The simulated input return loss showed the bandwidth of 1.2647[GHz]($2.944{\sim}4.209GHz$), 35.4% below -10dB. The gain of E, H-plane was achieved 8.3dBi and 8.4dBi respectively. And beamwidth of 3dB in the E, H-plane was $40.6^{\circ}$ and $81.6^{\circ}$, respectively.

MMIC low noise amplifiers for millimeter-wave application using 0.15 $\mu$m pHEMT have been presented in this paper. The design emphasis is on active device model and EM simulation. The deficiency of conventional device models is identified. A distributed device model has been adapted to circumvent the scaling problems and, thus, to predict small signal and noise parameters accurately. Two single-ended low noise amplifier are designed using distributed active device model for Q-band(40 ∼ 44 GHz) and V-band(58 ∼65 GHz) application. The Q-band amplifier achieved a average noise figure of 2.2 dB with 18.3 dB average gain. The V-band amplifier achieved a average noise figure of 2.9 dB with 14.7 dB average gain. The design technique and model employed provides good agreement between measured and predicted results. Compared with the published data, this work also represents state-of-the-art performance in terms of gain and noise figure.

This paper presents the reflection and transmission measurements conducted at the 60GHz suitable to provide a high speed wide band service. Mean received power and standard deviation are calculated and used to compare the characteristics of radio wave propagation to the various obstacles between transmitting and receiving antennas at the frequency. The results show that the transmitted signal strength by the steel door and copper plate are about 40dB lower than in free space, those by the rubber plate, glass and styroform are about 3dB lower than in free space. Also, the re(looted signal strengths at the 60 degree grazing angle show that in case by the partition is about 23dB lower, by the surface of a wall is about 6dB lower than by the copper plate. The presented results can be used for the design of 60 GHz picocell communication network that the reflected and transmitted waves affect to the service area.

In this paper, a broadband single balanced mixer is presented using a wideband rat-race implementation by vertical coupling. Frequency is selected as $1.5{\sim}3$ GHz for RF, $1.64{\sim}3.14$ GHz for LO, and 140 MHz for IF signals. When LO signal with 6 dBm at 2.7 GHz is injected, a conversion loss of 7.5 dB and RF to LO isolation of 30 dB are obtained. Also, an average conversion loss of 10 dB, RF to LO isolation of 30 dB, and LO to IF isolation of 45 dB are obtained for frequency band of $1.5{\sim}3$ GHz.

A clock recovery circuit for a 40 Gb/s optical receiver has been designed and implemented. The clock recovery circuit consists of pre-amplifiers, a nonlinear circuit with diodes, a bandpass filter and a clock amplifier. Before implementing the 40 Gb/s clock recovery circuit, a 10 Gb/s clock recovery circuit has been successfully implemented and tested. With the 40 Gb/s clock recovery circuit, when a 40 Gb/s signal of -10 dBm was applied to the input of the circuit, the 40 GHz clock was recovered with the -20 dBm output power after passing through the nonlinear circuit. The output signal from the nonlinear circuit passes through a narrow-band filter, and then amplified. The implemented clock recovery circuit is planned to be used for the input of a phase locked loop to further stabilize the recovered clock signal and to reduce the clock jitter.

Recently, wireless LAN are often applied in home or office because of its various of convenience. Frequency rage of wireless LAN specified by IEEE 802.11a is at 5.2 GHz and IEEE 802.11b is 2.4 GHz. But in offices with wireless LAN devices, reflection of waves against walls, ceilings, floors and desks made of metal creates multipath problems that reduce communication speed and lose data. These problems can be solved by using EM wave absorber. In this paper, we designed and fabricated EM wave absorbers using MnZn-ferrite, sendust, carbon and CPE(Chlorinated Polyethylene). The EM wave absorber with the ratio of MnZn-Ferrite : sendust : CPE=64 : 16 : 20 wt.% has thickness of 3.7 mm and absorption ability more than 17 dB at 2.4 GHz and the EM wave absorber with the ratio of MnZn-ferrite : carbon : CPE=40 : 15 : 45 wt.% has thickness of 3.8 mm and absorption ability more than 23 dB at 5.2 GHz.
