Microwave metrology for the thickness of metallic or superconductive films provides a new way to measure the film thickness in a non-invasive way by using microwave resonators, with the measurement accuracy affected by standard uncertainties in the resonator quality factor, temperature-dependent resonant frequency and the dimensions of the resonators. Here we study effects of the standard uncertainty in the thickness, $t_{cal}$, of a calibration $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ (YBCO) film on the measured thicknesses, $t_{RF}$, by using a ~ 40 GHz microwave resonator. For the study, we used five YBCO films having the thicknesses of 70 - 360 nm, for which relative standard uncertainties in $t_{RF}$ due to that in $t_{cal}$ are obtained. The standard uncertainty in $t_{cal}$ was determined with the surface roughness of the film taken into account. It appeared that relative standard uncertainty in $t_{cal}$ significantly affects the $t_{RF}$ values, with the values of 1% (5%) in the former resulting in those of 1-2% (5-9%) for the latter at 10 K. Our results show that, for realizing relative standard uncertainties less than 5% in $t_{RF}$ for all the YBCO films, the surface roughness of the calibration films should be small enough to realize a relative standard uncertainty of less than 2.7% in $t_{cal}$.

Electromagnetic wave asorbing properties of the $Ni_{0.5}-Zn_{0.4}-X_{0.1}{\cdot}Fe_2O_4$, where X was replaced by substitution elements Cu, Mg, Mn, have been studied. The structure, shape, size and magnetic properties of the $Ni_{0.5}-Zn_{0.4}-X_{0.1}{\cdot}Fe_2O_4$ were analyzed by XRD, SEM, VSM. The relative complex permittivity, permeability, and electromagnetic wave absorbing properties were measured by Network Analyzer. The structure, shape, size and magnetization value of the $Ni_{0.5}-Zn_{0.4}-X_{0.1}{\cdot}Fe_2O_4$ were found to be similar in spite of substitution elements. The coercive force and hysteresis-loss showed maximum value when Mg was substituted for X. The dielectric loss(${\varepsilon}_r"/{\varepsilon}_r'$) was found to be maximum value when Mn was substituted for X. Also the magnetic loss(${\mu}_r"/{\mu}_r'$} was found to be maximum with Cu substitution. The electromagnetica wave absorbing property of the $Ni_{0.5}-Zn_{0.4}-X_{0.1}{\cdot}Fe_2O_4$-Rubber composite with 4mm thickness was excellent as over - 40dB at 9GHz, and the $Ni_{0.5}-Zn_{0.4}-X_{0.1}{\cdot}Fe_2O_4$-Rubber composite with 8mm thickness was over-40dB at 2GHz. Those composites also showed superior microwave absorbing properties.

초고속,대용량,유-무선 통합 등의 광 통신 시스템 발전 요구에 따라 광 검출기는 점점 더 초고속,고출력의 사양을 요구 받고 있다. 기존 광소자의 일반적인 광 검출기구조에서는 속도와 효율이 서로 상반되어,40GHz이상의 속도와 고효율을 모두 얻기가 매우 어려우므로, 이를 해결하기 위하여 수동 광도파로가 집적된 광 검출기가 필요하다. 도파로형 광 검출기는 일반적으로 잘 알려져 있는 구조이지만 입사광을 수용하고, 광의 크기를 조절하여 광 흡수층에 제대로 전달하기 위해서는 광 도파로 및 구조에 대한 연구가 필요하다. (중략)

A DC responsivity in the quasisaturated regime was 0.45 A/W in CW measurements, and a bandwidth measured using a 850nm 40 ps pulsed laser was 16GHz. An electrical equivalent circuit model was extracted from measured S-parameter.

In this paper, we propose an enhanced symbol detector algorithm for 2.45GHz LR-WPAN(Low-Rate Wireless Personal Area Network) receiver. Because the frequency offset of $\pm$80ppm on 2.45GHz band is recommended in IEEE 802.15.4 LR-WPAN(Low-Rate Wireless Personal Area Network) specification, a symbol detector algorithm having stable operation in the channel environment with large frequency offset is required. For robustness to the frequency offset, non-coherent detection-based symbol detector algorithm is typically applied in the LR-WPAN receiver modem. However, the noncoherent symbol detector has increased performance degradation and hardware complexity due to squaring loss of I/Q squaring operation. Therefore we propose a coherent detection-based symbol detector algorithm with frequency offset compensation using a preamble symbol. The proposed algorithm is more suitable for LR-WPAN receiver aimed at low-cost, low-power and low-complexity than the non-coherent symbol detector, since it can reduce performance degradation due to squaring loss of I/Q squaring operation and implementation complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has performance improvement of about 1dB in various channel environments.

This paper makes a study of a formulation of net filter discrimination(NFD) and its computation for analyzing adjacent channel interference and suggests a systematic algorithm for calculating protection ratios of co-channel and adjacent channel applicable to frequency coordination in the fixed radio relay networks. It is shown that adjacent channel protection ratio can be derived from two factors: One is NFD depending upon receiver filter characteristic as well as transmitter spectrum mask and the other is co-channel protection ratio given by a function of fade margin, modulation scheme, and allowable interference. Actually to show the computing procedure from transmitter spectrum mask and receiver filter characteristic, NFD has been obtained for channel bandwidth of 29.65 and 40 MHz at 6.2 and 6.7 GHz band, respectively. According to the results, NFDs at the first adjacent channel of 29.65 and 40 MHz provide 27.4 and 28.9 dB, respectively. From these data, adjacent channel protection ratios corresponding to each channel bandwidth yield 47.5 and 46.3 dB for a given 64-QAM and 60 km. The proposed method gives some merits of an easy calculation, systematic extension, and applying the same concept to frequency coordination in millimeter radio relay networks.
