최근의 통신 시스템은 5Mhz, 10MHz대역폭과 같은 광태역 디지털 변조방식을 사용하고 있다. 이러한 광대역 통신 시스템에서 전력 증폭기의 비선형 특성은 전체 시스템 성능에 큰 영향을 미친다. 본 논문에서는 WLL 역방향 전력 증폭기의 이득 및 위상왜곡 변화에 따른 ACPR 특성을 해석하였고, ACPR특성을 만족하기위해 PLdB로부터 Backoff되는 값을 제시하였다. 또한 측정된 전력 증폭기의 ACPR특성과 시뮬레이션한 전력 증폭기의 ACPR특성을 비교하였다.

This paper presents a broadband two-stage low noise amplifier(LNA) operating from 3 to 10 GHz, designed with 0.18 ${\mu}m$ RF CMOS technology, The cascode feedback topology and broadband matching technique are used to achieve broadband performance and input/output matching characteristics. The proposed UWB LNA results in the low noise figure(NF) of 3.4 dB, input/output return loss($S_{11}/S_{22}$) of lower than -10 dB, and power gain of 14.5 dB with gain flatness of $\pm$1 -dB within the required bandwidth. The input-referred third-order intercept point($IIP_3$) and the input-referred 1-dB compression point($P_{ldB}$) are -7 dBm and -17 dBm, respectively.

In this paper, an MMIC broadband amplifier for wireless communication systems has been developed by using an active feedback method. This active feedback operates at much higher frequencies than a method by a spiral inductor feedback and its size is independent of the inductance value. The MMIC broadband amplifier was designed using a $0.5{\;}{\mutextrm{m}}$ MESFET library. The fabricated chip area was $1.4{\;}mm{\;}{\times}{\;}1.4{\;}mm. Measurement showed a gain of 18 dB with a gain flatness of ${\pm}3$ dB in a 1.5 GHz~3.5 GHz band. The maximum output power and the minimum noise figure were 14 dBm and 2.5 dB in the same band, respectively.

An ultra-compact milimeter-wave broadband MMIC amplifier was designed using a direct-coupled topology combined with optimum feedback design. Significant reductionin the chip size was possible by employing the direct-coupled topology. Bias resistors required for the direct-coupled topology were also used as feedback elements. Feedback was optimized for millimeter-wave frequencies using reactive elements. The fabricated MMIC amplifier was realized in a chip size of 0.8mm$^{[-992]}$ and showed gains higher than 8 dB from 12 to 44 GHz. An output power of 30mW was achieved at 44 GHz with a drain efficiency of 10%.

본 논문에서는 부궤환 회로, 푸쉬풀 구조, 광대역 RF choke, 전송 선로 트랜스포머를 이용하여 30~512 MHz의 초광대역에서 동작하는 100 W 고효율 전력 증폭기를 설계하였다. 출력 전력을 향상시키고자 전송 선로를 이용한 트랜스포머에 병렬로 커패시터를 삽입하여 적절하게 로드 임피던스를 정합하였다. 제작한 광대역 전력 증폭기는 동작 주파수 대역에서 100 W 이상의 출력 전력과 $18.34{\pm}0.9\;dB$의 높고 고른 이득 특성을 보였다. one-tone 측정에서 2차 고조파는 -34 dBc 이하, 3차 고조파는 -12 dBc 이하의 선형성 특성을 보였으며, 출력 전력 100 W에서 약 40% 이상의 고효율 특성을 보였다.

In this paper, we propose a new method for the improvement of linearizing and adaptive convergence charateristics of the feedforward linear power amplifier. In this circuit, errors at the signal cancellation stage can be compensated at the error cancellation stage and the overall linearizaton and adaptation characteristics of the linear amplifier are improved. The broadband characteristics and linearizing capability are improved without increasing the complexity of circuits and the signal processing structure.

A novel broadband wavelength-swept Raman laser was used to implement Fourier-domain mode locked (FDML) swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT). Instead of a conventional semiconductor optical amplifier, this study used broadband optical fiber Raman amplification, over 50 nm centered around 1545 nm, using a multi-wavelength optical pumping scheme, which was implemented with the four laser diodes at the center wavelengths of 1425, 1435, 1455 and 1465 nm, respectively, and the maximum operating power of 150 mW each. The operating swept frequency of the laser was determined to 16.7 kHz from the FDML condition of 12 km optical fiber in the ring cavity. The OCT images were obtained using the novel broadband wavelengthswept Raman laser source.

In this paper, a 100 Watt high power amplifier has been implemented and performed evaluation, which is operating at UHF band ($470\;{\sim}\;806\;MHz$) for Digital TV repeater. To achieve increase of bandwidth and high power capability, 3-way power combiner and divider of Wilkinson type was adopted. In order to measure the fabricated 100 Watt power amplifier, the estimation technique function which makes equivalent mask was used. As a result of the measurement, the existence of pilot signal is confirmed and the signal transmitted at the rated output power 100 Watt is brought out the flat feature through 6 MHz bandwidth. and it resulted that its value was less than -47 dB at the edge of radiation channel and less than -110 dB at more than 6 MHz position from channel edge.

We present the design and fabrication of a 60 GHz medium power amplifier monolithic microwave integrated circuit with excellent gain-flatness for a 60 GHz radio-over-fiber system. The circuit has a 4-stage structure using microstrip coupled lines instead of metal-insulator-metal capacitors for unconditional stability of the amplifier and yield enhancement. The gains of each stage of the amplifier are modified to provide broadband characteristics of input/output matching for the first and fourth stages and to achieve higher gains for the second and third stages to improve the gain-flatness of the amplifier for wideband.
