In this paper, Coplanar Waveguide(CPW) low-pass filter with the spurious-reduced is designed by using Defected Ground Structures(DGS). Two different LPF unit cells and DGS pattern are combined to reduce the spurious. In comparison to a conventional step impedance LPF, the size of proposed LPF as 17.2mm*6.8mm is several times smaller. The simulation and measurements confirm that spurious characteristics is presented less than -30dB($S_{21}$) to three times cut off frequency.

In this paper, we implemented a Ka-band frequency synthesizer for millimeter wave seeker. We improved frequency synthesizer performance of phase noise, resolution and spurious using the DDS driven hybrid method The proposed frequency synthesizer has the bandwidth of 1 GHz, frequency switching time of below 9 ${\mu}s$, suppressed spurious level of below -68.9 dBc. phase noise of -113.58 dBc/Hz at offset 100 kHz and flatness of ${\pm}$0.7 dB.

In this paper, a CPW lowpass filter with the spurious-reduced characteristic is designed by using DGS(Defected Ground Structures). By cascading two lowpass filters with different harmonic characteristics the spurious is reduced below - 15 dB. Additionally by combining a dumbbell shaped DGS to the filter we achieved a satisfactory spurious level of less than -25 dB to above three times cutoff frequency without any repeated passband. The fabricated LPF shows a compact size of $17.2mm{\times}6.8mm$, a cutoff frequency of 6 GHz, and a sharp skirt response of 7-order with two notch frequencies. The measured frequency responses agree well with simulated ones.

A miniaturized waveguide bandpass filter is designed by combining a corrugated lowpass structure and a highpass configuration based on the cut-off effect of waveguides. It is smaller than the conventional waveguide bandpass filter composed of half-wavelength resonators and has wider spurious free characteristics. Optimized design data for a seven-order waveguide bandpass filter with the symmetrical structure are given at the center frequency of 10 GHz with 800 MHz bandwidth. Measured bandwidth of the center frequency of 9.97 GHz is 840 MHz and measured insertion loss is 0.97dB, The length of the bandpass filter is 64.38mm. The first spurious response is produced at 26.1 GHz.

For the low power wireless installations, limited frequency resources are divided by use for their effective use and are assigned. Moreover, output strength is limited according to the frequency used in order to protect other wireless stations from interference caused by radio waves emitted from the low power wireless installations. For receivers, unwanted spurious emission is regulated, and regulations in Korea define that additional spurious emission for receivers in the low power wireless installations under 1GHz should be -54dBm, but no regulations have been established yet for low power wireless installations over 1GHz. It is presently required to set domestic standards for devices over 1GHz on account of the expansion of the communication market and its service.

This paper presents the theoretical natural frequencies of out-of-plane deformable ring based on the variables such as out-of-plane deflection, torsional rotation and shear rotation. Based on the same variables, a finite element eigen analysis is carried out by using the $C^0$-continuous, isoparametric element which has three nodes per element and three degrees-of-freedom at each node. Numerical experiments are peformed to find the integration scheme which produces accurate natural frequencies, natural modes and correct rigid body motion. The uniformly reduced integration and the selective reduced integration give more accurate numerical frequencies than the uniformly full integration, but the uniformly reduced integration produces incorrect rigid body motion while selective reduced integration does correct one. Therefore, the ring element based on the three variables which employes selective reduced integration is recommended to avoid spurious modes, to alleviate the error due to shear locking and to produce correct rigid body motion, simultaneously.

This paper introduces a technique of shifting the resonant frequency and of depressing the spurious modes in the composite piezoelectric vibrator laminated in the order of piezoelectric vibrator/thin insulator/piezoelectric vibrator, whose vibrators have the the same sizes and the same properties, respectively. The composite vibrator has shown the characteristics that the fundermental resonant frequency has decreased and spurious modes have depressed with increase of the capacitance of the inserted insulator. And the frequency characteristics of the composite vibrator without insulator have been nearly the same as those of each vibrator.

In this paper, two filters with center frequency of 19.58MHz were cascaded and its bandwidth characteristics were investigated with the variations of coupling capacitance for intermediate frequency (IF) bandpass filter application. The cascaded filter showed the higher stop region, reduction of spurious response and increase of selectivity. With the increase of coupling capacitance, insertion loss was increased but spurious response reduced. The cascaded filter with coupling capacitance of 15pF showed insertion loss of 5.643dB, 3dB bandwidth of 55.089kHz and 20dB bandwidth of 83.608kHz, respectively.

In the output of a mixer, spurious appears with the desired signal, and a filter is necessary to suppress the spurious. In this paper, the planar filter for Ka-band frequency synthesizer was designed and fabricated. In this procedure, the frequency response becomes asymmetric because of discontinuities at the high frequency. Using this, we designed short-end PCLF by using a individual resonator tuning method. The fabricated 5th-order Ka-band pass filter is compared with the result of EM simulation through measurement. The performance agrees with the simulation. Finally spurious suppression was examined through the measurement of output spectrum of the mixer with the filter.

In this thesis, we develop a spectral analysis scheme to eliminate the spurious peaks generated in HRR Millimeterwave Seeker based on FMICW system. In contrast to FMCW system, FMICW system generates spurious peaks in the spectrum of its IF signal, caused by the periodic discontinuity of the signal. These peaks make the accuracy of the system depend on the previously estimated range if a band pass filter is utilized to eliminate them and noise floor go to high level if random interrupted sequence is utilized and in case of using staggering process, we must transmit several waveforms to obtain overlapped information. Using the spectral analysis one of the schemes such as IAA(Iterative Adaptive Approach) and SPICE(SemiParametric Iterative Covariance-based Estimation method) which were introduced recently, the spurious peaks can be eliminated effectively. In order to utilize IAA and SPICE, since we must distinguish between reliable data and unreliable data and only use reliable data, STFT(Short Time Fourier Transform) is applied to the distinguishment process.
