This paper describe the design and fabrication of a SMD type Wilkinson power divider for PCS basestation. It has been designed for commercial power amplifier system by HP-ADS and fabricated with the size 0.56 $\times$ 0.35 inches. As a result, the power divider was well-operated in the frequency ranges of 1.75 ∼ 1.98GHz for the application of PCS system. The power divider reveals insertion loss 0.2dB, isolation -19.8dB, amplitude balance 0.02dB, phase balance 0.5o, input and output impedance matching -20.6dB respectively.

In this paper, we describe the radio astronomical data processing system implementation using Mark5B and its development. KASI(Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute) is constructing the KVN (Korean VLBI Network) until the end of 2007, which is the first VLBI(Very Long Baseline Interferometery) facility in Korea and dedicated for the mm-wave VLBI observation. KVN will adopt the DAS (Data Acquisition System) consisting of digital filter with various function and 1Gsps high-speed sampler to digitize the radio astronomical data for analyzing on the digital filter system. And the analyzed data will be recorded to recorder up to 1Gbps data rates. To test this, we have implemented the system which is able to process 1Gbps data rates and carried out the data recording experiment.

This paper suggests the parameters of the requirement conditions of minimum performance for a RF transceiver system design from the specifications of IEEE Std 802.11b and IEEE Std 802.11a. It has yielded the requirement conditions of minimum performance in the design process due to these parameters. A RF transceiver system is simulated by using Agilent ADS(Advanced Design System) after selecting the components of optimal conditions to fabricate the RF transceiver system. The results of both the analysis and the simulation will be used for a real wireless LAN design.

Accurate measurement of speed and altitude of flying vehicles in air data system remains a critical technical issue. A highly reliable Pitot-static probe is required to obtain air data such as total pressure and static pressure. In this study, an analysis of the characteristics of flowfield around the Pitot-static probe was performed by using a Navier-Stokes CFD code. In addition, for the purpose of finding an optimal configuration, a technique based on the response surface method is applied to the problem with design parameters including shape of the nose section and cone angle. It is shown that the optimal configuration fulfills the MIL specification in wider range of high angles of attack.

In this paper, the collision avoidance of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAVs) by applying the Traffic alert and Collision Avoidance System II(TCAS-II) is introduced. The performances of two UAVs whose maximum vertical rates are different each other are compared and analysed by not only converting many TCAS-II commands into an autopilot input but also implementing a computer program based on the Minimum Operational Performance Standards for TCAS-II. As the alternative to a possible Near Mid-Air Collision for UAVs whose maximum vertical rates are low, we have proposed a modified algorithm considering the maximum vertical rate and altitude. The modified algorithm is available on the assumption that a wider surveillance range is provided by a ADS-B system.

In this paper, a low noise amplifier(LNA) in a receiver of a Low Noise Block Down Converter (LNB) for direct broadcasting service(DBS) is implemented using GaAs HEMT. The LNA is designed for the bandwidth of 11.7GHz-12.2GHz. The 2stage-LNA consists of a input matching circuit, a output matching circuit, DC-blocks and RF-chokes. The result of a simulation of the LNA using Advanced Design System(ADS) shows the noise figure less than 1.4dB, the gain greater than 23dB and the flatness of 1dB in the bandwidth of 11.7 to 12.2GHz.

"The FAA's Next Generation Air Transportation System" is a comprehensive overhaul of U.S National Airspace System to make air travel more convenient and dependable, while ensuring the flight is as safe, secure and hassle-free as possible. At its most basic level, NextGen represents an evolution from a ground-based system of air traffic control to a satellite-based system of air traffic management. This evolution is vital to meeting future demand, and to avoiding gridlock in the sky and at U.S airports. NextGen will open worldwide's skies to continued growth and increased safety while reducing aviation's environmental impact.

A properly determined separation minima applied in Air Traffic Management(ATM) is critical for safe and efficient aircraft operations. The separation minima is primarily determined by the accuracy performance of surveillance system, and, due to the stringent aviation safety standard, the position accuracy of the surveillance system must be estimated with a high level of reliability. This study proposed a method for estimating the position accuracy of surveillance system with a relatively small amount of data by finding upper confidence limit instead of maximum likelihood values of unknown parameters. Through the proposed method, it is possible to determine a required separation minima with a more reliability in the face of data scarcity which often occurs when we implement a new surveillance system such as Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B).

This paper presents the effects of RF performance parameters on the Galileo receiver design via simulation after reviewing the requirements of the Galileo receiver structure. At first, we considered the general requirements, structure and characteristics of the Galileo system. Then we designed the Galileo receiver focused on performance requirement of 16 dB C/N which is equal to 15 % Error Vector Magnitude(EVM) by using Advanced Design System(ADS) simulation program. In order to verify the function of Automatic Gain Control(AGC)), we measured the IF output power level by changing the input power level at the front - end of the receiver. We analyzed the performance degradation due to phase noise variations of Local Oscillator(LO) in the Galileo receiver through EVM when the minimum sensitivity level of -127 dBm is applied at the receiver. We also analyzed the performance degradation according to variable Analog-to-Digital Converter(ADC) bits within the Dynamic range, -92 ~ -139 dBm, which has been defined by gain range (-2.5 ~ +42.5 dB) in the AGC operation. The results clearly show that the performance of the Galileo receiver can be improved by increasing ADC bits and reducing Phase Noise of LO.

In this paper, we design and implement high-power amplifier with 18 watt for W-CDMA repeater. We simulate microwave circuits using RF simulator, ADS1.3 and optimize the circuit to obtain the linear and high power using Harmonic balance method. Harmonic balance is an excellent method in the analysis of nonlinear system. The HPA is fabricated on tefron substrate($\varepsilon_{{\gamma}}$=3.48, h=0.5mm, T=0.035mm). From the measured result, the HPA has gain of 52dB, 1 dB compression power of 52.8dBm and good ACPR (Adjacent Channel Power Radio) performance.l Power Radio) performance.
