Balun using a coaxial lines i often used in microwave circuits due to easy fabrication, high operating power, and stable operation. However, it is difficult to predict an accurate balun operation characteristic due to the parasitic reactance component to be generated when the coaxial line is connected to the microstrip line existing on the substrate, and the inductance and the capacitance component of the coaxial line itself. In this paper, it is measured the phase characteristics at two output ports of the coaxial line balun which should have opposite phase characteristics. Based on these results, it will examine closely the feasibility of making more improved coaxial line balun.

A coaxial-cable impedance transformer that can be used in high power and wideband frequency range is an arbitrary impedance transformation ratio by an additional coaxial cable. The coaxial-cable impedance transformer to be 50-${\Omega}$ to 25-${\Omega}$ impedance transformation ratio is easily operated an wideband power divider by connecting two 50-${\Omega}$ lines at 25-${\Omega}$ impedance point. This wideband power divider has a poor output matching characteristic and a poor isolation characteristic between two output ports. In this paper, it proposes a coaxial-cable power divider to be a good output matching and isolation characteristics as it uses the singly terminated filter design theory. The odd-mode operation characteristic of the suggested power divider to use singly terminated low pass filter coefficient due to matching order and ripple value is examined by ADS program. And, it fabricates and measures the operation characteristic of 2-way power divider with 2nd-order and 4th-order matching circuit.

In High-Speed DSP systems, crosstalk between transmission lines of multi-channel can degrade the performance of equipment operations. This paper presents a microwave board to measure multi-channel coaxial cable assembly. The designed board has good performances from DC to 3 GHz, which have improved characteristic impedance, reduced crosstalk by using via fence, and low transmission loss. Using the designed board, we can measure characteristics of DUT(Device Under Test) such as return loss, insertion loss, crosstalk phase delay, and characteristic impedance. The measured results are used to improve performances of a produced coaxial cable assembly.

A coaxial-cable impedance transformer used in wideband frequency range is generally restricted to the fixed impedance transformation ratio as n2:1 or 1:n2(n: the number of coaxial cables). In this paper, we propose a new coaxial-cable impedance transformer to have an arbitrary impedance transformation ratio. We have fabricated three impedance transformers($50-{\Omega}$ to $25-{\Omega}$, $50-{\Omega}$ to $20-{\Omega}$ and $50-{\Omega}$ to $9-{\Omega}$) to confirm the operation characteristic of the suggested impedance transformer. The reflection characteristics (S11) of the fabricated $50-{\Omega}$ to $25-{\Omega}$ and $50-{\Omega}$ to $20-{\Omega}$ impedance transformer were less than -15dB over about 3-octaves frequency range and the reflection characteristic (S11) of the fabricated $50-{\Omega}$ to $9-{\Omega}$ impedance transformer was less than -15dB over about 1-octave frequency range, respectively.

Materials used at microwave are usually used as a dielectric with a manufacturing purpose of printed circuit boards, etc. Complex permittivity of them can be measured from attenuation constant or propagation constant of a transmission line using a microstrip line with bulk type. But as the technique recently which can manufacture to have complex permittivity and permeability demanded using nonferrous metals for powder-type grows up, we need sensors and methods which can measure characteristics of powder-type materials. So far measuring methods of permittivity and permeability with waveguide or coaxial cable are used but they have faults which have a complex measurement method and are difficult to simultaneously measure permittivity and permeability. In this paper, a simultaneous measuring method of permittivity and permeability with 2-port coaxial cable and a new proposed calculation. The proposed 2-port coaxial cable is designed to be easy to insert materials and to have a wideband. We measure permittivity and permeability of magnetic powder(Ni-Fe-Mo, Ni-Fe) which reveal its characteristic at $0.3{\sim}1.3GHz$ to identify the proposed sensor.

반도체, 디스플레이, 태양광 등의 공정에서 사용되는 웨이퍼의 크기가 증가하고, 생산률이 플라즈마의 밀도에 비례한다는 연구 결과가 발표되면서 대면적 고밀도 플라즈마 소스 개발에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 특히, ECR, ICP, Helicon plasma 등 고밀도 플라즈마 소스에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 이에 따라, 여러 개의 ICP를 결합한 multiple ICP를 이용해 대면적 고밀도 플라즈마 소스 개발을 진행했다. Multiple ICP의 경우 각 ICP 소스에 같은 power (current)를 공급해야만 균일한 플라즈마 방전이 발생되어 균일도를 확보 할 수 있다. Current controller 같은 추가적인 장비를 설치하지 않고, power를 분배하는 transmission line을 coaxial 형태로 설계하고 같은 길이로 병렬 연결함으로써 각각의 ICP소스에서 균일한 플라즈마를 방전시킬 수 있었다. Power generator에서 보는 각 ICP의 total impedance는 각 ICP 소스의 impedance와 coaxial 형태의 transmission line의 characteristic impedance, frequency, 길이의 함수로 구할 수 있고, 이 total impedance가 일정하기 때문에 current가 균등하게 분배되어 각 ICP소스에 균등한 power 분배가 가능한 것이다. 실질적으로 ICP 소스의 impedance는 플라즈마 방전 유무에 따라 변화하기 때문에 일정하게 유지하는 것은 어렵다. Transmission line의 characteristic을 사용함으로써 ICP의 impedance의 변화에 상관없이 Total impedance를 일정하게 유지시킴으로써 균등한 power 분배가 가능하다는 것을 연구했다. Frequency는 13,56MHz, characteristic impedance를 $50{\Omega}$ (coaxial cable)으로 고정하고, ICP 소스의 플라즈마 방전 유무/antenna turn/소스 위치에 따른 total impedance를 transmission line의 길이에 따라 측정하고, 이를 이론값, 그래프와 비교하였다. 특정 length에서 플라즈마 방전 유무(ICP의 impedance 변화)와 상관없이 비교적 일정한 total impedance를 유지하는 것을 확인 했다. 이것은 특정 길이를 갖는 coaxial형태의 transmission line를 연결하면, total impedance는 플라즈마 방전 유무로 발생하는 ICP의 impedance 변화와 상관없이 일정하게 유지되어 각 ICP소스에 균등한 파워 분배가 가능하다는 것을 보여준 결과이다. 이것을 토대로 frequency에 따라(또는 characteristic impedance에 따라) 균등한 파워 분배가 가능한 coaxial 형태 transmission line의 특정 길이를 구할 수 있고, 대면적 소스에서 균등한 파워 분배를 위한 병렬연결에 적용할 수 있을 것이다.

Recently, cable operators are providing broadcast and IP based services using Hybrid Fiber Coaxial(HFC) networks while securing frequency band for video contents and convergence services are becoming an important issue. But, HFC networks have difficulty of securing frequency band, because they are used for broadcasting service based on MPEG. Therefore, it is necessary to find out a method to go broadband. Radio Frequency over Glass(RFoG), one of the methods to go broadband, is advantageous in the sense that it can overcome bandwidth limit and simplifies the structure. In this paper, we find characteristic and standard of RFoG and services. And we also find advantage of RFoG by evaluating performance.

High speed probe for measurement of sin91e flux quantum circuits is comprised of coaxial cables and microstrip lines in order to carry high speed signals without loss. For the impedance matching between coaxial cable and microstrip line, we have determined the dimension of the microstrip line with 50${\Omega}$ impedance by simulation and then have investigated the effect of line width and cross-sectional shape of signal line, dielectric material, thickness of soldering lead at the coaxial-to-microstrip transition Point, and the an91c between dielectric material and end part of the signal line on the characteristics of signal transmission of the microstrip line. From the simulation, we have found that these all parameter's had influenced on the characteristic of signal transmission on the microstrip line and should be reflected in fabricating high speed probe, We have also determined the dimension of coplanar waveguide to fabricate testing sample for performance test of high speed probe.

In wire transmission systems using a coaxial cable or cable pair, the cable loss caused by the transmission characteristic of the cable varies depending on the length of the cables or variation in the ambient temperature, and usually takes the form close to a $\sqrt f$ characteristic. In order to compensiate for such loss, an actove variable automatic equalizer with a tandam combination of feedback and feedforward was presented. The automatic equalizer to be described here overcomes many of the disadbantages associated with the conventional passive variable equalizers, which include the need for inducters, a complex design procedure, and incompatibility with modern dldctronic control systems that are very complicated. This design has advanatges over other active variable equalizer design and it is especially applicable to precision equalization at frequencies bellow 1MHz.

Recently, extending the local broadcasting and increasing lots of informations. The low-loss communication cable is required in proportion as frequency .The reason of transportation loss causes to using the high frequencies like hundreds of MHz or decades of GHz. For the low transportation loss. It is required the developing-technology of foaming and the high foamed insulator with the dielectric ratio of the nearest to 1. Therefor, there is the purpose of developing the insulating materials for the low dielectric ratio. Also it is important to measure the attenuation, which is one of the important parameters.sa the evaluation of transportation characteristic with frequency in the communication cable. In this paper,the result showed that the dielectric ratio(1.4) of the nearest to 1 and low attenuation with high frequency were very related to the transportation and reflection characteristics such as propagation velocity (82.27%). Delay time and voltage standing wave ratio(VSWR).
