Optical fiber sensors have been proven that they have the potential to detect high-frequency ultrasonic signals, in structural health monitoring field which generally refers to acoustic emission signals from active structural damages and guided waves excited by ultrasonic actuators and propagating in waveguide. In this work, the sensing properties of optical fiber sensors based on Mach-Zehnder interferometer were investigated in the metal plate. Analytical formulas were conducted first to explore the parameters affecting its sensing performances. Due to the simple and definable frequency component, the Lamb wave excited by the piezoelectric wafer was employed to study the sensitivity of the proposed optical fiber sensors with respect to the frequency, rather than the acoustic emission signals. In the experiments, according to above investigations, spiral shape optical fiber sensors with different size were selected to increase their sensitivity. Lamb waves were excited by a circular piezoelectric wafer, while another piezoelectric wafer was used to compare their voltage responses. Furthermore, by changing the excitation frequency, the tuning frequency characteristic of the proposed optical fiber sensor was also investigated experimentally.

본 연구에서는 가변 임피던스 정합 회로를 갖는 루프 안테나를 이용한 13.56 MHz 무선 전력 전송 시스템을 제안하였다. 일반적으로 무선 전력 전송 시스템은 공진기간의 이격 거리가 변함에 따라 결합계수가 변하게 되며, 이는 반사 임피던스에 의한 임피던스 부정합을 발생시킨다. 본 연구에서 제안한 방식은 varactor 다이오드를 갖는 가변 임피던스 정합 회로를 사용함으로써 루프 안테나 간의 이격 거리 변화에 따른 임피던스 부정합을 보상할 수 있다. 따라서, 안테나간의 거리가 가까워 결합계수가 큰 경우에도 우모드와 기모드의 발생을 최소화하여 중심 주파수의 변화 없이 최적의 전송 효율을 얻을 수 있다. 본 논문에서 제안한 방법의 유용성을 입증하기 위하여 13.56 MHz에서 동작하는 $30\;cm{\times}30\;cm$ 크기의 루프 안테나를 갖는 무선 전력 전송 시스템을 고정 임피던스 정합 회로와 가변 임피던스 정합 회로를 갖는 경우로 각각 설계하고, 거리에 따른 입력 임피던스, 입력 반사 계수 및 효율 변화를 측정하였다. 또한 가변 임피던스 정합 회로를 송신기와 수신기의 한 쪽에만 사용하는 경우와 양 쪽 모두에 사용하는 경우를 비교 측정하였다. 측정 결과, 고정 임피던스 정합 회로보다 가변 임피던스 정합 회로를 사용하는 것이 효율이 개선되며, 한 쪽에만 사용하는 경우보다 양 쪽 모두에 사용하는 것이 개선된 효율을 보임을 확인하였다.

This paper presents an inductorless 8-Gb/s adaptive passive equalizer with low-power consumption and small chip area. The equalizer has a tunable RC filter which provides high-frequency gain boosting and a limiting amplifier that restores the signal level from the filter output. It also includes a feedback loop which automatically adjusts the filter gain for the optimal frequency response. The equalizer fabricated in $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology can successfully equalize 8-Gb/s data transmitted through up to 50-cm FR4 PCB channels. It consumes 6.75 mW from 1.8-V supply voltage and occupies $0.021mm^2$ of chip area.

The design of VCO using OTA as active element is discussed in this paper. Several Quadrature oscillator structures ere presented. They use only OTAs and capacitors end are very useful for IC fablication. The frequency of oscillator, $\omega_0$ are proportional to the gm of the OTA and the structures are appropriate for high frequency yea and sinusoidal oscillator operation.

In this paper, a design of current-mode continuous-time filters for low voltage and high frequency applictions using complementary bipolar current mirror paris is presented. The proposed current-mode filters consist of simple bipolar current mirrors and capacitors and are quite suitable for monolithic integrtion. Since the design method of the proposed curent-mode filters is based on the integrator type of realization, it can be used for a wide range of applications. And the cutoff frequency of th efilters can be easily changed by the DC cntrolling current. As design examples, the 5th order butterworth filters are designed by cascade and leapfrog methods with tunable cutoff frequencies from 30MHz to 100MHz. The characteristics of the designed current mode filters are simulated and examined by SPICE using standard bipolar transistor parameters.

This paper suggests and demonstrates a novel flow measurement technique: tunable AC thermal anemometry that allows simple integration, robust measurement, and extremely high accuracy. The principle and simple theoretical analysis of the technique are presented. To find the optimal condition at which the phase lag becomes most sensitive to flow speed change, the phase lag was measured scanning the heating frequency from 1 to 100 Hz, while the flow speed of ethanol was increased stepwise from 0 to 40 mm/s. The sensitivity of phase lag depended on the heating frequency and the flow speed. It was possible to measure the flow speed of 0.7 mm/s with the resolution of 0.1 mm/s at 4 Hz.

A novel mode analysis method and differential mode delay measurement technique for a multimode optical fiber based on optical frequency domain reflectometry has been proposed for the first time. We have used a conventional OFDR with a tunable external cavity laser and a Michelson interferometer. A few-mode optical multimode fiber was prepared to test our proposed measurement technique. The differential mode delay (DMD) of the sample fiber was measured to be 16.58 ps/m with a resolution of 1.5 ps/m. We have also compared the OFDR measurement results with those obtained using a traditional time-domain measurement method.
