This paper describes a $0.13-{\mu}m$ CMOS RF switch for $3{\sim}5$ GHz UWB band(mode 1). It can improve isolation characteristics between ports by using deep n-well RF devices while their source and body terminals are separated. From the measurement results, the proposed T/R switch is comparative to the on-wafer probing measurement results of the series-shunt T/R switches. When the proposed T/R switch operates as Tx mode, measured insertion loss from Tx to output port is less than 1.5 dB and isolation between Tx and Rx is more than 27 dB for $3{\sim}5$ GHz. Return loss for the Tx port is more than -10 dB and input P1dB is +10 dBm.

The ultra-wideband (UWB) signal radiation process in an antenna is different from that of a narrowband signal. In this paper, we study the degradation of the desired signal component according to the antenna structure and location of a receiver in a bipolar time-hopping UWB system. And we propose a receiver structure with an adaptive template waveform generator to compensate for the degradation caused by a realistic TX-RX antenna system.

In order to enhance the isolation level between two dual-band E-slot microstrip patch antennas, EBG structure which operates in UMTS Tx(1.92~1.98 GHz) and Rx(2.11~2.17 GHz) band is proposed. The proposed EBG structure made with a periodic array of two different size EBG unit cells which has a modified mushroom-type for isolation improvement between two antennas. They do not share a common ground plane of the microstrip patch antenna. Overall size of the fabricated antenna is $210.5mm{\times}117mm$. The two different EBG unit cell sizes are $15.6mm{\times}4mm$ and $17.4mm{\times}4mm$, respectively. It was etched on the FR-4 substrate(thickness=3.93 mm, ${\varepsilon}_r$=4.6). The experiment results show that the isolation level between antennas in Tx/Rx band were improved by about 9 dB and 12 dB, respectively, through the use of the proposed EBG structure.

This paper is about increasing transfer efficiency of wireless power transmission. The new method is proposed to detect the alignment of transmitter and receiver of wireless charger and so smart phone can display the position of wireless charging receiver on its LCD panel for the maximum charging efficiency. The previous method is only to show the transfer efficiency, but this method is to show not only the efficiency but also coordinates of receiver. The apparatus of the wireless charger is based on WPC(Wireless Power Consortium) standard and has planar air coil combined with magnet shield in Tx and Rx device so that the leakage flux is minimized on condition of under hundreds of kHz operating frequency. In this paper, it's showed that relation of magnet field and distance of each coils can be linearized and position information of Tx and Rx device is calculated thru trigonometry. Through the experiment, the obstacles of linearity are discovered and also showed that it can be optimized. and so the presented method is suitable for alignment detection method of Tx and Rx device in WPC wireless charger.

In this paper, we analyzed Alamouti based the MIMO-OFDM system in an underwater vertical communication channels. These in consideration both the transmission loss the multipath loss which is suitable for underwater environment are necessary method to improve the efficiency and communication performance in underwater communication. This paper is modeled in an environment that caused the error, considered each simulated the multi-path loss, transmission loss, the Doppler spread in order to implement a practical communication environment and simulated through the MIMO-OFDM system of Alamouti STBC method. The MIMO-OFDM system 2Tx-2Rx of Alamouti STBC scheme in underwater vertical communication system is obtained about 3~5 dB gain as compare with its 2Tx-1Rx scheme with reference $10^{-3}$ BER.

In this paper, we design digital D-PHY link chip controling DSI (Display Serial Interface) that meets MIPI (Mobile Industry Processor Interface) standard. The D-PHY supports a high-speed (HS) mode for fast data traffic and a low-power (LP) mode for control transactions. For low power consumption, the unit blocks in digital D-PHY are optionally switched using the clock gating technique. The proposed low power digital D-PHY is simulated and compared with conven tional one about power consumption on each transaction mode. As a result, power consumptions of TX, RX, and total in HS mode decrease 74%, 31%, and 50%, respectively. In LP mode, power reduction rates of TX, RX, and total are 79%, 40%, and 51.5%, separately. We implemented the low power MIPI D-PHY digital chip using $0.13-{\mu}m$ CMOS process under 1.2V supply.

In this paper, designs and test results of X-band Tx and Rx filters for satellite communications are presented. The passbands are 7.9 ~ 8.4 GHz and 7.25 ~ 7.75 GHz for the Tx filter and the Rx filter respectively. Both of the filters require very high rejection performance between the two passbands. In order to make these filters in an in-line type, non-resonating node method was adopted and E-plane junction was used for the non-resonating node. Design procedures of circuit model design and full-wave electromagnetic model design are described. The test results show that all the performances meet requirements including temperature variations and the sizes are smaller than those of domestic commercial filters by about 30 ~ 40 %.

Transport Control Protocol (TCP) has been implemented in software running on CPU in end systems, and the protocol processing has appeared as a new bottleneck due to advanced link technology. TCP processing is a critical issue in Storage Area Network (SAN) such as iSCSL, and the overall performance of the Storage Area Network heavily depends on speed of TCP processing. TCP Engine implemented in hardware reduces the load of CPU in end systems as well as accelerates the protocol processing, and hence high speed data processing is achieved. In this paper, we have proposed a hardware engine for TCP processing. TCP engine consists of three major block, TCP Connection block Rx TCP block and Tx TCP block TCP Connection block is responsible for managing TCP connection states. Rx TCP block is responsible for receive flow which receives packets from network and sends to CPU. Rx TCP performs header and data processing and sends header information to TCP connection block and Tx TCP block It also assembles out-of-ordered data to in-ordered before it transfers data to CPU. Tx TCP block is responsible for transmit flow which transfers data from CPU to network. Tx TCP performs retransmission for reliable data transfer and management of transmit window and sequence number. Various test-cases are used to verify the TCP functions. The TCP Engine is synthesized using 0.18 micron technology and results in 51K gates not including buffers for temporal data storage.

The K-PCS and W-CDMA dual band dielectric duplexer and bandpass filters have been designed and fabricated. The dual band duplexer consists of the separate monoblock K-PCS and W-CDMA duplexers using common antenna port. The coupling capacitance and I/O impedance matching have been designed to minimize the cross interference between the bands. Isolations of crosspoint between Tx and Rx in K-PCS and W-CDMA dualband were about 47 dB and 100 dB, respectively. On the other hand, isolations of Tx and Rx in K-PCS and W-CDMA were about 66 dB and 65 dB, respectively. The difference between 47 dB and 100 dB originated from the different center frequencies in Tx and Rx of K-PCS and W-CDMA bands. The coupling capacitance of the bandwidth, I/O capacitance of I/O matching and impedance matching, and various capacitances were important role to fabricate the dielectric duplexer and bandpass filters.

Relative attenuations of Tx and Rx in K-PCS and US-PCS duplexers were about -60dB and -65dB, -51dB and -53dB, respectively. In the case of Rx and Tx in K-PCS and US-PCS bandpass filters, relative attenuations were about -40dB and -14dB, -5dB and -10dB, respectively. From the aboved results, the relative affect between Tx and Rx in K-PCS bands was smaller than that of US-PCS bands. Also, the various capacitances of passband were important role to determine the characterics of bandpass filter.
