We present a rectifier for wireless power transmission using multiplier configuration in layout for MOSFETs which works at 13.56 MHz, designed to fit in CMOS process where conventionally used diodes are replaced with the cross-coupled MOSFETs. Full bridge rectifier structure without comparators is employed to reduce current consumption and to be working up to higher frequency. Multiplier configuration designed in layout reduces time delay originated from parasitic series resistance and shunt capacitance at each finger due to long connecting layout, leading to fast transition from on-state to off-state cross-coupled circuit structure and vice versa. The power conversion efficiency is significantly increased due to this fast transition time. The rectifier is fabricated in $0.11{\mu}m$ CMOS process, RF to DC power conversion efficiency is measured as 86.4% at the peak, and this good efficiency is maintained up to 600 MHz, which is, to our best knowledge, the highest frequency based on cross-coupled configuration.

This paper presents improved teaching and learning GUI for easily analysis tool of load flow of power system with database function for searching solution. In this paper includes not only contingency analysis function but also searching function of conditional solution sets from database of solution for various load levels. The GUI is friendly for study for power system operation and control because picture provide a better visualizing of relationshipsbetween input parameters and effects than a tabula type result. This GUI enables topologyand the output data of load flow for line outages to be shown on same picture page. Userscan input the system data for power flow on the the picture and can easily see the theresult diagram of bus voltage, bus power, line flow. It is also observe the effects of different types of variation of tap, shunt capacitor, loads level, line outages. Proposed GUI has been studied on the Ward-Hale 6-Bus system.

The equivalent circuit for the RLH-TL is proposed considering radiation effects due to the inclusion of a series capacitor and shunt inductor in a unit cell for the right/left-handed transmission line(RLH-TL). The design equations to realize a specific phase shift at a given frequency is also provided. The S-parameters for unit cells with N=1, 3, 5, and 10 are analyzed in various aspects based on the EM and circuit simulations especially for the purpose of controlling radiation along RLH-TL's. A modification formula for the radiation rate per unit cell is also proposed for good agreement between the EM and circuit simulation results.

In this paper, we propose a flexible zeroth-order resonant(ZOR) antenna. Its zero phase constant ensures that the antenna performance is independent of substrate deformation. A composite right/left-handed transmission line is designed based on coplanar waveguide technology to realize the zeroth-order resonance phenomenon. The CRLH is an implementation of metamaterial(left handed material) which is composed of shunt inductance and series capacitance. In order to yield additional circuital parameter, chip inductor and gap capacitor is added, respectively. The proposed ZOR antenna provides good performances: reasonable bandwidth(6.5 %) and peak gain(0.69~1.39 dBi). Simulated and measured results show that the antenna's resonant frequencies and radiation patterns are almost unchanged at different curvature diameters of 30, 50, 70 mm, as well as for a flat surface.

In this paper, a diplexer circuit to separate GSM from CDMA band is designed using a LTCC (Low Temperature Cofired Ceramic) multi-layer technology. In order to increase a integration capability of the diplexer, it is designed using 3-dimensional (3-D) multi-layer compact inductor and capacitors in e-layer LTCC substrate with a relative dielectric constant of 7. In order to achieve high selectivity of the bands, a shunt capacitor and inductor are designed in the high-pass filter (HPF) and low-pass filter (LPF), respectively. The size of the fabricated diplexer including CPW pads is 3,450 ${\times}$4,000 ${\times}$694 ${\mu}m^3$An insertion loss (IL) and return loss in GSM band are less than -1.35dB and more than -5.66dB,respectively. In the case of CDMA band, the IL of -1.54dBandRLof above -9.30dBare archived.

This paper presents a design of a 100 W high-efficiency power amplifier, whose operational frequency band expands from 30 to 512 MHz, using negative feedback network, push-pull structure, broadband RF choke, and transmission line transformer for balun configuration. The push-pull amplifier has been tuned for higher output power using a shunt capacitor as a matching component at its load especially for high-frequency region. The implemented power amplifier exhibited a very flat power gain of $18.34{\pm}0.9\;dB$ throughout the operating frequency band and very high power-added efficiency(PAE) of greater than 40% at an output power of 100 W. It also showed second- and third-harmonic distortion levels of below -34 dBc and -12 dBc, respectively, through the entire operating frequency band.
