In this paper, Capacitive Telemetry RF Sensor System using Recursive Least Square (RLS) algorithm was proposed. General Telemetry RF Sensor System means that it should be "wireless", "implantable" and "batterless". Conventional Telemetry RF Sensor System adopts Integrated Circuit type, but there are many defects like complexity of structure and the limitation of large power consumption in some cases. In order to overcome these disadvantages, Telemetry RF Sensor System based on inductive coupling principle was proposed in this paper. Proposed Telemetry RF Sensor System is very simple because it consists of R, L and C and measures the changes of environment like pressure and humidity in the type of capacitive value. This system adopted RLS algorithm for estimation of this capacitive parameter. For the purpose of applying RLS algorithm, proposed system was mathematically modelled with phasor method and was quasi-linearized. As two parameters such as phase and amplitude of output voltage for estimation were needed, Phase Difference Detector and Amplitude Detector were proposed respectively which were implemented using TMS320C2812 made by Texas Instrument. Finally, It is verified that the capacitance of proposed telemetry RF Sensor System using RLS algorithm can be estimated efficiently under noisy environment.

Ultra-wide bandwidth (UWB) detection method has been widely used as a front end detection scheme for the ultra-high frequency (UHF) partial discharge (PD) monitoring systems. A broad-band video detector module was developed and characterized for the UHF UWB PD detection systems. The useable bandwidth of the module is more than 2 GHz and it is optimized for 50-ohm systems. The detection sensitivity and dynamic range of the module were characterized by using a known ns-width RF pulses of GHz range. The dynamic range is more than 6-decades and the module can detect pulsed RF signals down to 1 nW. The detector module can eliminate expensive equipment such as high speed oscilloscopes and radio frequency (RF) spectrum analyzers. Therefore, it enables one to use slow speed data acquisition systems for the PD monitoring at the UHF range. The detector module was used to detect real PDs of about <3 pC. The module converts the UWB PD signals into a low-bandwidth video signal with a high signal-to-noise ratio.

The broadband power detector for power amplitude envelope detection of the direct-conversion Six-port output signal was designed and implemented in this paper. The power detector should be linearly operated to produce the linear amplitude and phase signal for input RF signals in required broadband frequency range. The power detector should be designed under conditions of matching circuit with low VSWR, which protect unbalanced phase signal from reflection signal due to mismatch between the output port of a six-port and the input port of a power detector. The designed power detectors, which were implemented in L-band with 50 ohm matching and Ku-band with multiple LC matching circuits and isolator, respectively, were analyzed in viewpoints of the utilization as a power detector of direct conversion Six-port. The dynamic range of designed power detectors were also measured and rvaluated as a power detector of Six-port circuit.

NMR measurement has been studied for protons in pre-polarized flowing water by a separated detector working at high field far away from the measured field region where the transition of protons is occurred by the pertur-bation of RF energy. The conditions for NMR signal were optimized on the amplitude and frequency of modulation field, the RF field of detector, water speed, and RF field at the measured field region. The NMR signal with the full width of 320 nT at the half maximum in Lorentzian curve and with signal to noise ratio of 10.5 was measured in the range from a few ${\mu}T$ to mT, and its shape and amplitude were independent of the measured field intensity and its uniformity.

This paper presents a compact and miniaturized power detector utilizing low temperature co-fired ceramics(LTCC) technology for the application in wireless handset system to monitor the transmitting power at the frequency of 824-849MHz. The proposed power detector is composed of detector diode, lumped components for matching network, and LTCC stripline coupler based on LTCC substrate technology. A 20dB LTCC stripline direction coupler is designed and implemented with many bending section in order to reduce the practically occupied area for miniaturization. A zero bias schottky diode is adopted for detector design because of its high speed operation with minimized loss. The measured performances of fabricated detector agree well with the predicted results with a good linearity within the effective input RF power range.

Uncooled pyroelectric infrared detectors based on BST(B $a_{-x}$S $r_{x}$Ti $O_3$) thin films have been fabricated by RF magnetron sputtering and surface Micromachining technology. The detectors form BST thin film ferroelectric capacitors grown by RF magnetron sputtering on N/O/N(S $i_3$ $N_4$/ $SiO_2$/S $i_3$ $N_4$) membrane. The sputtered BST thin film exhibits highly c-axis oriented crystal structure that no poling treatment for sensing applications is required. This is an essential factor to increase the yield for realization of an infrared image sensor. surface-Micromachining technology is used to lower the thermal mass of the detector by giving maximum sensor efficiency Gold-black is evaporated on top of the sensing elements used the thermal evaporator. fabricated uncooled pyroelectric infrared detectors is highly output voltage at the low temperature(1$^{\circ}C$).).).

$PbTiO_3$ thin film is prepared by rf sputtering method to implement the pyroelectric infrared detector at room temperature. Annealing of $PbTiO_3$ thin film is done from $400^{\circ}C$ to $550^{\circ}C$ each for 2 hours in furnace. The spectral response to recrystallization process of $PbTiO_3$ thin film is measured by IR photospectro meter. Pyroelectric detector Modeling is studied for implementing device using electrical equivalent circuit model. It is found that $PbTiO_3$ thin film has two IR absorption band within $1000-400\;cm^{-1}$ (10um-25um) and it's spectral response is improved as annealing temperature increase. As a result of pyroelectric detector modeling, we find the possibility of implementing optimum device structure.
