In 4G mobile communication, data services of mobile communication began to be provided in earnest. As a result, services such as the internet and multimedia including the video have become the main contents in the recent wireless traffic. Accordingly, research on 5G mobile communication with higher transmission rate has been actively carried out. 5G mobile communication is expected to be based on 4G for compatibility with existing terminals. Therefore, the simulation of this paper is based on 4G and we propose a new user scheduling scheme based on the Max throughput scheduling algorithm to improve system performance. This paper derives the frequency efficiency and fairness to compare the existing user scheduling algorithm with the proposed user scheduling algorithm. The proposed scheme shows better frequency efficiency and fairness than Max throughput in all situations. This paper contributes to the research for improving the system performance of 5G mobile communication technology, and I hope that it will help some of the ongoing standardization work.

Recently, cellular communication networks are migrating from 2G to 3G. Spectrum utilization tends to be inefficient during the transition. Cognitive radio (CR) technology can be a key solution to increase spectrum efficiency by allowing secondary networks to utilize frequency resource of primary networks. However, conventional CR approaches which do not utilize the frequency reuse factor of primary networks may incur degradation of whole network performance. In this paper, we propose a mechanism that a secondary network senses pilot signals of a primary network and select optimum frequency bands. In order to maximize whole network performance, we formulate an optimization problem subject to interference constraints for a primary network and present algorithms. Simulation results compare the proposed method with the conventional method. Our proposed method shows performance gain over the conventional method if channel variation of a primary network is dynamic and the frequency reuse factor of a primary network is high.

In this paper, due to the development of 5G communication technology, an antenna capable of covering both LTE and 5G bands is currently needed. In addition, we designed and manufactured a single feed antenna for the integrated public network (LTE) and 5G frequency dual band cover to satisfy the frequency bandwidth of more than 10% in each band. The antenna designed by adopting the dipole of the basic dipole antenna in a planar structure is a form in which the radiating element is vertically extended at all of the 700 MHz antennas and folded into a 'ㄷ' shape. In addition, the radiating element of the 700MHz band serves as a reflector of the 3.5GHz band radiating element. As a result, the 700 MHz band -10 dB bandwidth 104 MHz(14.8%) and 3.5 GHz band -10 dB bandwidth 660 MHz(18.8%) were obtained and the radiation pattern characteristic resulted in gains of 8.46 dBi, beam width E-plane 55°, H-plane 81° and 3.5 GHz bands 6.14 dBi, beamwidth E-plane 79°, H-Plane 49°.

본고에서는 스마트폰 도입 이후 전 세계적으로 급증하고 있는 무선 트래픽의 수요를 만족하기 위해 추가적으로 IMT 주파수를 확보하기 위한 국내외 동향을 고찰한다. ITU는 2015년 열릴 WRC-15에서 국제 공통의 IMT 주파수 지정을 논의할 예정이며 이를 위해 각 국에서 제안했던 잠정 후보대역 및 후보대역에서 운용중인 다른 업무들간 수행했던 공유연구 결과를 설명한다. 또한 1 Gbps의 체감 전송률을 목표로 하는 차세대 IMT(5G) 시스템의 주파수 요구사항을 만족하기 위해 초광대역폭의 이점이 있는 6 GHz 이상 대역의 동향을 살펴보고 향후 WRC-19 의제로 개발하기 위한 추진계획을 소개한다.

In this paper, a new variable active inductor using a conventional grounded active inductor with feedback variable LC-resonator is proposed. The grounded active inductor is realized by the gyrator-C topology and the variable LC-resonator is realized by the low-Q spiral inductor and varactor. This variable LC-resonator can compensate the degradation of Q-factor due to parasitic capacitance of a transistor, and the frequency range with high Q-factor is adjustable by resonance frequency adjustment of LC-resonator. The fabricated variable active inductor with Magnachip $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process shows that high-Q frequency range can be adjusted according to varactor control voltage from 4.66 GHz to 5.45 GHz and Q-factor is higher than 50 in the operating frequency ranges. The measured inductance at 4.9GHz can be controlled from 4.12 nH to 5.97 nH by control voltage.

This paper presents a capacitor loaded tunable bandpass chip filter using multiple split ring resonators (MSRRs) with two transmission zeros. To obtain high selectivity and minimize the chip size, asymmetric feed lines are adopted to make a pair of transmission zeros located on each side of passband. Compared with conventional filters using cross-coupling or source-load coupling techniques, the proposed filter uses only two resonators to achieve high selectivity through a pair of transmission zeros. In order to optimize selectivity and sensitivity (insertion loss) of the filter, the effect of the position of asymmetric feed line on transmission zeros and insertion loss is analyzed. The SOI-CMOS switched capacitor composed of metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor and stacked-FETs is loaded at outer rings of MSRRs to tune passband frequency and handle high power signal up to +30 dBm. By turning on or off the gate of the transistors, the passband frequency can be shifted from 4GH to 5GHz. The proposed on-chip filter is implemented in 0.18-${\mu}m$ SOI CMOS technology that makes it possible to integrate high-Q passive devices and stacked-FETs. The designed filter shows miniaturized size of only $4mm{\times}2mm$ (i.e., $0.177{\lambda}g{\times}0.088{\lambda}g$), where ${\lambda}g$ denotes the guided wave length of the $50{\Omega}$ microstrip line at center frequency. The measured insertion loss (S21)is about 5.1dB and 6.9dB at 5.4GHz and 4.5GHz, respectively. The designed filter shows out-of-band rejection greater than 20dB at 500MHz offset from center frequency.

5G와 IoT로 인한 무선 트래픽 급증에 대응하기 위해서는, 무선망 성능 및 주파수효율 향상, 신규주파수할당, 주파수 공동사용 기술 개발 등이 복합적으로 적용되어야 달성 가능하다. 그의 일환으로, LTE를 비면허 대역에 사용하려는 LTE-U(Long Term Evolution-Unlicensed)라는 새로운 패러다임의 수평적 주파수 공동사용 기술을, 이동통신에 적용하려는 시도가 진행되고 있다. LTE-A의 주파수 집성기술을 활용하여, 1차 캐리어를 면허 대역 LTE 기반으로 하고, 2차 캐리어를 비면허 대역 LTE로 묶어서 고속으로 데이터를 전송하는 기술이다. 우선적으로 5GHz 비면허 대역에 적용을 검토하고 있는데, 기존에 사용하던 Wi-Fi 및 기상레이다 등과의 공정한 공존(fair coexistence)이 가장 중요하다. 따라서 각국의 5GHz 주파수 대역 규제 현황, 공존을 위한 LBT(Listen-Before-Talk)통신 메커니즘, 표준화 현황을 살펴본다. 또한 이해 당사자인 Wi-Fi, LTE, 이용자, 기술기준의 입장을 살펴보고, 구현이슈, 지적소유권 동향 등을 검토하고, 기술적 및 정책적 대응전략을 살펴본다.

본 연구에서는 기계적 충격 방식을 통한 주파수 상향방식을 이용하여 저주파 진동원으로부터 충분한 에너지를 수확할 수 있는 압전 구동 방식의 광대역 에너지 수확 소자를 제작하고 평가하였다. 유연한 외팔보의 진동으로 인한 기계적 충격은 압전 외팔보에 큰 두 번째 힘을 전달한다. 변형률이 커지고 주파수 상향방식을 사용한 결과로 출력 전력과 동작 주파수의 대역폭 또한 향상되었다. 제작된 에너지 수확소자의 질량체 비율은 ${\mu}=5.8$, 스토퍼의 거리는 d = 0.5 mm이며, 17 Hz의 주파수, $30k{\Omega}$의 최적 부하저항에서 $449{\mu}W$의 최대 피크 전력을 전달하였다. 또한 1 g로 가진하였을 때 11 Hz부터 28 Hz의 주파수 대역에서 동작이 가능하였고, 저주파수의 무작위 진동에서도 효율적으로 에너지 수확이 가능하다는 것을 입증하였다.
