In this paper, newly proposed dual-band microstrip antennas using stacked inverted-L-shaped parasitic elements are presented for GPS $L_1(1.575GHz)$ and $L_2(1.227GHz)$ bands. For making dual band which has large interval, ${\lambda}/4$($L_1$ band) inverted-L-shaped parasitic elements were stacked at both side of radiation apertures on the half-wavelength($L_2$ band) patch antennas. The resonance in the parasitic elements occurs through coupling to the patch. Next, due to using circular polarization at GPS, ${\lambda}/4$($L_1$ band) inverted-L-shaped parasitic elements was stacked using sequential rotation technique on the patch and both side of the diagonal corners of the antenna were eliminated to make dual-band circular polarization. The designed circular polarized antenna's dimensions are $0.43{\lambda}L{\times}0.43{\lambda}L{\times}0.06{\lambda}L$ (${\lambda}L$ is the free-space wavelength at 1.227 GHz). Measured -10 dB bandwidths was 120 MHz(7.6%) and 82.5 MHz(6.7%) at GPS $L_1$ and $L_2$ bands. and 3 dB axial ration bandwidths are 172 MHz(10.9%) and 25 MHz(2.03%), respectively. All of these cover the respective required system bandwidths. Within each of the designed bands, broadside radiation patterns were observed.

DATS which is one of three subsystems of IDACS is responsible to receive Sensor Data, LRIT and HRIT in L-Band and transmit LRIT and HRIT in S-Band from/to COMS satellite. This paper shows detailed test procedures used to verify the performance and functionality of DATS after its implementation was completely finished. As a part of efforts to verify key DATS performance, G/T and EIRP were measured by using solar flux density as radio source. Regarding the verification of DATS functionality, RF loop-back test was conducted to validate if there is no BER degradation excepting MODEM/BB implementation loss occurred in the integrated DATS. Integrated with 13m antenna, DATS successfully restored image from received MTSAT-1R broadcasting data, LRIT and HRIT, of which frequencies are all L-Band. S-Band transmission was also verified through test antenna placed away from 13m antenna by measuring real LRIT and HRIT spectrum in S-Band. From those test results, DATS is determined to be fully ready to communicate with COMS in L-Band and S-Band.

The first geostationary satellite made by Korea, COMS, has the three different payload ; Meteorological sensor, Oceanographic sensor and Ka-band communication payload. There are Meteorological & Ocean Data Communication Subsystem(MODCS) and Telemetry, Command and Ranging Subsystem(TC&R) as other RF radiation sources. MODCS transmits and receives Meteo and Ocean measurement data from/to earth using L-band and TC&R using S-band. The Ka-band communication payload will provide high-speed multimedia services and communication services for natural disaster such as prediction, prevention, and recovery services in the government communications network.Ka-band beacon is for the earth antenna pointing and the experiment of rain fading. This paper gives the analysis results about the mutual radiation effect on Ka-band communication payload, Ka-band beacon, MODCS and TC&R. Up/Down link power and coupling factor including the geometrical position and distance of antenna, filter rejection and degradation factor due to the different polarization are considered. The results show MODCS and TC&R are compatible for Ka-band communication payload and Ka-band beacon does not interfere with MODCS and TC&R normal operation.

고용량 파장다중분할(WDM) 전송 시스템의 수요가 폭발적으로 증가함에 따라 기존의 erbium-doped fiber amplifiers(EDFA)가 제공하는 이득 대역을 넘어서는 대역폭의 광증폭기의 개발이 촉진되고 있다. 에르븀 이외의 새로운 회토류 첨가물을 사용한 증폭기와 광섬유 내에서의 비선형 현상인 라만 산란에 의한 라만 증폭기에 집중적인 연구가 그 예라 하겠다. 최근 몇 년간의 집중적인 연구를 통하여 현재의 광대역 광 증폭기는 기존의 EDFA(C 벤드 EDFA)가 제공하는 광이득대역의 4∼5배 정도를 쉽게 제공할 수 있다. 이러한 목적을 가지고 통신시장에서 사용될 수 있는 1500nm 근처 대역의 증폭에 대한 세가지의 증폭 기술이 연구되고 있다. 우선, S+밴드(1450-1480nm)와 S밴드(1480-1530nm)의 증폭을 위한 thulium-doped fluoride fiber amplifiers(TDFFA), C 밴드(1530-1560nm)와 L 밴드(1570-1610nm)를 위한 EDFA, 그리고 마지막으로 100nm 이상의 이득대역과 S+에서 L밴드까지 증폭파장대역의 선택이 자유로운 라만 증폭기가 있다. 또한 위의 세 기술을 직렬 또는 병렬로 조합하여 사용하는 증폭기가 있다. 이러한 증폭기 모두에 대해서 실험적인 보고는 많이 있었으나, 내부의 에너지 준위가 복잡하여 증폭 기제가 복잡하고, 실험 파라미터를 측정하기가 어려워서 광대역증폭기의 성능을 예측하기 어려운 점이 있었다. 게다가 이러한 상황에서 광대역증폭기에 대한 해석적이거나 수치해석적인 심도깊은 연구가 부족하여 앞으로 증폭기를 다양하게 응용하기 위한 성능의 예측이 어려울 것으로 보인다. 이는 광대역 증폭기 기반의 전송 시스템을 성공적으로 적용하는데 제한을 줄 것이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 광대역 증폭기(C/L밴드 EDFA, 라만 증폭기, TDFA)에 대한 실험적인 분석뿐만 아니라 해석적, 수치해석적인 분석 방법까지 그 응용의 예와 함께 소개할 것이다.

In this paper, the triangular u-slot patch antenna for the PCS & IMT-2000 dual band are studied. The frequency bandwidth of a triangular u-slot patch antenna can be increased by L-strip fed structure. The impedance bandwidth(VSWR$\leq$2) of the fabricated single element is 590 MHz(30.18 %). Using the frequency bandwidth of PCS & IMT-2000, we confirm VSWR below 1.65, which is a good characteristic. Thus the wideband characteristic of the L-strip fed structure is confirmed experimentally.

This study is the analysis and verification process of the L-band satellite communications repeater thought PCB & circuit EM analysis. System performance can be vulnerable to various spurious inside the L-band satellite transponder, power conversion board, digital signal board, TM/TC board, such as control panels and blocks that are linked signal components when the winch is increased due to the noise component. So the whole system can cause performance degradation. PCB resonance analysis and EM simulation can be easily analyzed for a variety of optimal. Also, by setting the ports on the PCB, H/W designer wants to can easily analyze system.
