In this work, open and short stubs that were fabricated on the silicon substrate and for which the periodically arrayed grounded-strip structure (PAGS) was employed were studied along with their basic RF characteristics for an applicability regarding the RF-matching components. The PAGS-employing open and short stubs showed losses that are much lower than that of the conventional stub on the silicon substrate. Concretely, the Q values of the open and short stubs are 9 and 10.2, respectively, while the Q value of the conventional open stub is 2.5. With the use of the PAGS-employing open and short stubs, a highly miniaturized harmonic-rejection filter was also fabricated on the silicon substrate. The filter exhibited a comparatively sound harmonic-suppression characteristic at n × 13 GHz, and its size is 0.1 mm², which is only 7% of the size of the conventional filter on the silicon substrate.

소형위성 관제용 S대역 프로토타입 트랜스폰더를 상용 부품을 활용하여 설계하였으며, 확장성까지 고려하여 QPSK 변복조 기능을 FPGA를 사용하여 구현하였다. 제작된 트랜스 폰더는 RF Front End, RF 변조기, RF 복조기, 그리고 변복조기로 구성된다. 측정결과 트랜스폰더의 수신 비트오율(이하 BER)은 -105 dBm의 입력전력에서 $1.1{\times}10^{-6}$으로 나타났다. 이러한 방식의 트랜스폰더는 개발기간을 단축할 수 있으며 크기와 무게를 줄일 수 있는 장점이 있다.

The design, simulation, modeling and measurement of a low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) RF switch module for GSM applications is presented in this paper. RF switch module is constructed using a Rx/Tx switching circuit and integrated low pass filter. The low pass filter function was designed to operate in th GSM band. Insertion and return loss of the low pass filter were designed less than 0.3 dB and better than 12.7 dB at 900 MHz. The RF switch module contained 10 embedded passives and 3 surface mount components integrated on $4.6{\times}4.8{\times}1.2$ nm, 6-layer multi-layer integrated circuit. The insertion loss of switch module was measured at 900 MHz was 11 dB.

This paper presents a polarization switching antenna integrated with silicon RF MEMS SPDT switches in the form of a package. A low-loss quartz substrate made of SoQ (silicon-on-quartz) bonding is used as a dielectric material of the patch antenna, as well as a packaging lid substrate of RF MEMS switches. The packaging/antenna substrate is bonded with the bottom substrate including feeding lines and RF MEMS switches by BCB adhesive bonding, and RF energy is transmitted from signal lines to antenna by slot coupling. Through this approach, fabrication complexity and degradation of RF performances of the antenna due to the parasitic effects, which are all caused from the packaging methods, can be reduced. This structure is expected to be used as a platform for reconfigurable antennas with RF MEMS tunable components. A linear polarization switching antenna operating at 19 GHz is manufactured based on the proposed method, and the fabrication process is carefully described. The s-parameters of the fabricated antenna at each state are measured to evaluate the antenna performance.

본 논문에서는 직접 변환 방식을 사용하는 RF 중계기에서 I/Q 불균형을 유발하는 파라미터를 분석하고 이를 추정하기 위한 방법에 대하여 연구하였다. 중계기에서는 RF 신호를 기저 대역으로 변환하는 수신단에서 실수부와 허수부의 진폭, 위상 불일치 및 필터 불일치가 발생하며 기저 대역 신호를 RF 신호로 변환하는 송신단에서 진폭과 위상의 불일치가 발생하게 된다. 이에 따라 중계기 구조에서 I/Q 불균형이 발생하는 요소를 순서대로 모델링 하고, 해당 파라미터를 추정하기 위한 송신단에서 수신단으로의 피드백 시험 구조를 제안하였다. 시험 송신 신호와 수신 신호의 비교를 통해 각 실수부와 허수부 신호 성분이 섞이면서 발생한 I/Q 불균형 요소를 추정할 수 있음을 기술하였으며, 추정한 파라미터를 이용하여 직접 변환 RF 중계기에서 I/Q 불균형 현상이 적절히 보상되었음을 확인하였다.

In this paper, electromagnetic topology (EMT) was used to analyze the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of RF circuits including passive and active components. It is difficult to obtain usable results for problems relating to electromagnetic coupling in complex systems when using conventional numerical or experimental methods. Thus it is necessary to find a new methodology for analyzing EMC problems in complicated electromagnetic environments. In order to consider the nonlinear characteristics of active components, a SPICE diode model was used. A power detector circuit and the receiver circuit of a radio control (RC) car were analyzed and experimented in order to verify the validity of this method.

In this paper, a tunable bandpass filter with mutual inductive coupling circuits is newly designed and demonstrated for UHF TV tuner ranged from Ch.14(473MHz) to Ch.69(803MHz) applications. Conventional HF tuning circuit with an electromagnetic bandpass filter has several problems such as large size, high volume and high cost, since the electromagnetic filter is comprised of several passive components and air core inductors to be assembled and controlled manually. To address these obstacles, peaking chip inductor was newly applied for constructing the mutual inductive coupling circuit. The proposed circuit was newly and optimally designed, since the chip inductor showed lower components Q-value than the air core inductor. A varactor diode has been also used to fabricate the proposed tunable bandpass filter for RF tuning circuit. The fabricated tunable filter exhibited low insertion loss of approximately -3dB, high return loss of below -10dB, and large tuning bandwidth of 330MHz.

The content and composition of saponin compounds of Panax species were analyzed according to their species, region and processing type of red and white ginseng. The species employed were Korean-, Chinese-, Japanese red ginsengs, and Korean white ginseng of Panax ginseng, American- and Canadian ginsengs of Panax quinquefolium, and Panax notoinseng. Twelve main saponin components in the ginseng were identified and quantified using TLC and HPLC. All three species had remarkably different content and composition. However, within each species they were similar. Twelve major ginsenosides were determined in P. ginseng, eight in p. quinquefolium, and six in P. notoginseng. Of the components of P ginseng Rf, $Rh_1$, $Rh_2$ and Ra were not detected in P quinquefolium, and $Rb_2$, Rc, Rf, $Rh_2$, Ra and Ro not detected in P. notoinseam. Crude saponin content and protopanaxadiol/protopanaxatriol saponin ratio were compared. They were 4.81~5.24% and 1.27~ 1.45 in p. ginsengs, 7.01~7.25% and 2.12~ 2.15 in p. quinquefolium, 9.80% and 0.99 in P. notoineng. The prosapogenin and sapogenin content were different among the Panax species.
