In this paper, we report on a microstrip line voltage controlled tunable bandpass filter. We used the characteristic the relative dielectric constant of thin film ferroelectrics depends on the applied dr voltage. we designed using Au/BSTO/MgO/Au structure. We cascaded many resonators for large furling range sustaining 1 GHz renter frequency, narrow band, low IL ($\leq$4 dB). We could design the BPF of which center frequency is 16 GHz, 1.9 GHz tuning range, the narrow bandwidth within 800 MHz, low insertion loss less than 3 dB by adjusting the gap of 3 cascaded resonators.

The characteristics of waveguide, electrode and packaging fabricated for acousto-optic tunable filters(AOTF) used for optical communications were analyzed. A $Ti:LiNbO_3$in-diffusing method was employed for the formation of the optical waveguide with a dimension of width $8{\mu}m$, length $30000-50000{\mu}m$ and varying the thickness. The diffusion was carried at $1050^{\circ}C$ for 8 hours to pattern the optical waveguide. The resulted waveguide exhibited a single mode at 1550nm optical wavelength. The width of IDT, with 10 SAM periods, was $5000{\mu}m$ . Impedances of the electrodes deposited with Au were analyzed using a network analyzer; $48.1\Omega$ at the center frequency of 193MHz for electrode thickness of $1500{\AA}$ and $50.7\Omega$ at the center frequency of 192MHz for $1600\AA$. And the characteristics of packaged AOTF was analyzed. When the electrical frequency 177.1MHz was applied to the device, the mode conversion efficiency was measured as 63% at the optical wavelength 1515nm.

Implementation of a wavelength-swept source with constant tuning rate adopting a PZT-type tunable filter, requires the knowledge of hysteresis of the filter used. The hysteresis must be considered to avoid any degradation in resolution of the optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR) system. An optical spectrum analyzer (OSA) could be used to do the hysteresis measurement, but its measurement time is too long for the high-speed driving conditions for the filter. We proposed a new hysteresis measurement method based on OFDR, which could measure the hysteresis in a real driving condition. A hysteresis measurement apparatus consisted of wavelength-swept source, interferometer, signal processing unit, and PC program is built and used to do the measurement. It is concluded that the new method is useful in the measurement of hysteresis at real driving conditions by successfully implementing a swept-wavelength source whose wavelength change is linear in time.

A passive prismatic-shaped isolation platform (PIP) is proposed to realize enhanced quasi-zero stiffness (QZS) effect. The design concept uses a horizontal spring to produce a tunable negative stiffness and installs oblique springs inside the cells of the prismatic structure to provide a tunable positive stiffness. Therefore, the QZS effect can be achieved by combining the negative stiffness and the positive stiffness. To this aim, firstly, the mathematical modeling and the static analysis are conducted to demonstrate this idea and provide the design basis. Further, with the parametric study and the optimal design of the PIP, the enhanced QZS effect is achieved with widened QZS range and stable property. Moreover, the dynamic analysis is conducted to investigate the vibration isolation performance of the proposed PIP. The analysis results show that the widened QZS property can be achieved with the optimal designed structural parameters, and the proposed PIP has an excellent vibration isolation performance in the ultra-low frequency due to the enlarged QZS range. Compared with the traditional QZS isolator, the PIP shows better performance with a broader isolation frequency range and stable property under the large excitation amplitude.

In this paper, using diplexer structure and varactor diode controlled by reverse bias voltage for diplexer switch gives possibilities to improve isolation and current characteristics. 1 have newly designed switch with high isolation by application varactor diode corresponding to capacitor of diplexer. The low-pass filter for proposed tunable diplexer passes the microwave signal in the bandwidth for wireless cellular network systems and high-pass filter passes it in the bandwidth for wireless personal communication services (PCS) network systems. As the capacitance of the low-pass filter increases, the cut-off frequency can be moved to low frequency, so that the switch is on state in cellular bandwidth and off state in the PCS bandwidth, in contrast to, as the capacitance for attenuation characteristic of high-pass filter increases, it can be moved to high frequency, so that the switch is off state and on state in the cellular bandwidth. it is possible to improve isolation and current consumption characteristics by application diplexer design methods and varactor diode. 1 expect that the tunable diplexer circuit and design methods should be able to find applications on MMIC and low temperature copired ceramic (LTCC).

In this paper, we proposed the design and calibration method for the near infrared Acousto-Optic Tunable Filter (AOTF). The theory and design principles of AOTF for the visible light are well known since I.C.Chang has developed the parallel tangent condition for the non-collinear AOTF. Deflection angle, frequency-wavelength relation, spectral resolution, etc. were calculated based on the theory of AOTF. From this result, important parameters - incident and acoustic angle - to fabricate AOTF were decided. We measured the spectral resolution and the relation between electrical driving frequency and the Optical wavelength of diffracted light to calibrate the near infrared AOTF. About 40 ∼ 80 MHz electrical frequency was required to get 1200 ∼ 2200 nm near infrared light. Spectral resolution was less than 10 nm in the near infrared region.

We designed an x-band radar for motion detector using a frequency tunable hairpin ring resonator. The proposed doppler radar sensor can vary the oscillation frequency by applying a hairpin resonator using a varactor diode to the oscillator, and this can also reduce the size by transmitting and receiving a signal from Tx/Rx dual antenna. The fabricated doppler radar sensor was fabricated in $30{\times}24mm$, and it was confirmed that the pulse width difference occurred according to the distance from the object. The measurement results showed oscillation at 10.525GHz. We confirmed that it is enough to use as radar for motion detection from the measured results.

This paper investigated that resonant frequencies of microstrip patch antenna were tunable when piezoelectric materals were used as the antenna substrates. The resonant frequencies of the air-gap antenna using the piezoelectric substrate were able to be controlled by applied AC voltage. The frequency variation of the antenn was great when PZT were applied voltage of the resonant frequency.
