본 논문은 Z-변환 기술을 이용한 2차 고조파를 억제시킨 광대역 개방형 스터브 대역 통과 여파기를 설계 및 제작하고 그 특성을 측정하였다. 제안된 여파기는 주파수 선택적 결합 구조(FSCS)와 ${\lambda}_g/4$ 개방형 스터브를 조합한 구조의 대역 저지 여파기를 광대역 개방형 스터브 대역 통과 여파기에 집적화하여 제2 고조파를 억제하였고, 기존의 개방형 스터브 여파기의 입력단과 출력단에 대역 저지 여파기(BSF)를 삽입할 경우 크기가 증가되었으나, 제안된 구조는 스터브를 연결하는 인버터 위치를 스터브들 사이에 집적화 하여 $18.7{\times}16.9mm^2$의 크기로 제작되어 BSF 삽입 이전보다 크기가 작아졌다. 제안된 여파기는 중심 주파수 5.8 GHz에서 대역폭이 95 %, 삽입 손실 0.6 dB, 반사 손실 14 dB의 측정 결과를 얻었으며, 시뮬레이션 결과와 측정 결과가 유사하게 나타났다. 따라서 위성 통신의 X-밴드 및 지능형 교통 정보 시스템(ITS)의 여파기에 적용할 수 있다.

In this paper we studied about the effects of tuning stuvs on attenuation and phase shift for micro strip feedlines Result of the analysis are good agreement with those of experiments. We found that a better way to increase the phase shift and to dectrease the attenuation may be to use multiple stubs of distances.

본 논문에서는 초광대역의 저지대역과 우수한 cutoff 특성을 가지는 새로운 저역통과 필터를 제안하였다. 우수한 cutoff특성을 얻기 위해 여러단을 배열하는 기존이 저역통과 필터의 단점을 극복하기 위해 두 개방 스터브 사이의 커플링 효과를 이용하였고, 접지면에 슬롯을 형성하여 고주파 부분에서의 저지대역 특성을 개선하였다. 제작한 저역통과 필터는 19.2 ㎜ × 14.9 ㎜ 의 크기로 통과대역에서의 삽입손실은 -0.15 dB 이하이며 1.1 ㎓에서 -3 dB의 차단주파수를 가진다. 저지대역폭은 삽입손실 -20 dB를 기준으로 1.5 ㎓에서 30 ㎓ 이상의 광대역을 이루어 기존 저역통과 필터의 저지대역폭을 획기적으로 증가시켰다.

As an application of ring filters, a new and simple method to determine an inherent-ring-resonance frequency is introduced. The ring filter consists of a ring and two short stubs. They are connected at 90$^{\circ}$ and 270$^{\circ}$ points of the ring and the ring filter may be seen in such way that two filters are connected in parallel. Therefore, if the two powers of the two filters are out-of-phase at the output, the power excited at the input can not be delivered. That can be done by making difference in length of the two short stubs, and when a certain condition is satisfied, a frequency exists where all the excited power is reflected. That is the very inherent-ring-resonance frequency. In the lossless case, the return loss with the condition reaches 0 dB at the inherent-ring-resonance frequency but does not with conductor, dielectric losses and so on. Therefore, the effective loss tangent at a frequency of interest may be obtained correctly. To verify the method, two ring filters have been fabricated in microstrip lines and the measured results show good agreement with the predicted ones.

This paper presents the design method of a Colpitts type oscillator with coplanar waveguide(CPW) structures in the range of Ka-band frequency for transmitter and receiver modules. Series short stubs of CPW patterns provide inductances and capacitances in the range of Ka-band which can be expressed as a CLC-$\pi$ equivalent circuit. The experimentation has employed ro4003 substrates as a CPW substrate which has a dielectric constant of 3.38 and a signal and ground space of 100um. A method of momentum simulation for the CPW patterns has performed with an ADS software tool of Hewlett-Packard Corp. Inductance and capacitance circuits of a Colpitts oscillator was interconnected to a MESFET with CPW bend structures of including the input and output impedance matching circuits of the active transistor. Circuit parameters for impedance matching were determined through the network conversion to the equivalent length of CPW transmission lines by using T-network 1 $\pi$-network conversion circuit. A Colpitts oscillator was fabricated on the substrate of a area of 8.5mm x 17.4mm with a MESFET of Fujitsu FMM5704X and CPW series short stubs. The design suggested the possibility of realizing oscillators on a planar surface for the wireless system of tansmitter and receiver modules in the frequency range of 30GHz

본 논문에서는 두 개의 $\lambda$/4 단락 스터브를 사용하여 진폭과 위상 평형 특성을 개선한 링 하이브리드(ring hybrid) 회로를 제안하였다. 제안한 회로는 기존 링 하이브리드 결합기에 존재하는 위상과 진폭 비 평형 특성을 $\lambda$/4 단락 스터브를 통해 보정한 회로이다. 제안한 링 하이브리드 결합기의 성능을 검증하기 위하여 평형 다이오드 주파수 2 체배기 회로를 설계 및 측정하였다. 실험 결과 $1.6{\sim}2.35\;GHz$의 대역 내에서 최저 12.3 dB의 변환 손실과 30 dB 이상의 기본 주파수 격리도를 보였다.

This paper proposes a dual band branch line coupler (BLC) using a composite right/left handed (CRLH) transmission line. The existing dual band BLCs with open stubs require hundreds of line impedance for the open stub as the frequency bands approach to each other, so it has been almost impossible to realize them. However in the proposed BLC, a CRLH transmission line replaces the open stub with an extremely high line impedance so that the BLC circuit may be realized even two frequencies are close to each other. As an example, a dual band BLC operating at 1800MHz and 2300MHz (the frequency ratio is 1:1.28) is designed and measured. Open stubs with $560\Omega$ line impedance are replaced by CRLH transmission lines for realizing the dual band BLC. The measured performances prove that the dual band operation is well acceptable and the proposed design method is successful even the ratio between two frequencies is not around two nor more.

In this paper, we present the design method for a low-pass type inverter, which can effectively suppress the spurious response associated with band-pass filters. The inverter has a length of ${\lambda}/4$ and employs not only a stepped-impedance configuration but also asymmetrical and bending structures in order to improve frequency selectivity and compactness. The inverter is applied as an impedance/admittance inverter to the ultra-wideband (UWB) band-pass filter. The UWB band-pass filter configuration is based on a stub band-pass filter consisting of quarter-wavelength impedance inverters and shunt short-circuited stubs ${\lambda}/4$ in length. The asymmetrical stepped-impedance low-pass type inverter improves not only the spurious responses, but also the return loss characteristics associated with a UWB band-pass filter, while a compact size is maintained. The UWB band-pass filter using the proposed inverters is fabricated and tested. The measured results show excellent attenuation characteristics at out-band frequencies, which exceed 18 dB up to 39 GHz. The insertion loss within the pass-band (from 3.1 to 10.6 GHz) is below 1.7 dB, the return loss is below 10 dB, and the group delay is below 1 ns.

This paper presents a 2-6 GHz GaN HEMT power amplifier monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) with bridged-T all-pass filters and output-reactance-compensation shorted stubs using the $0.25{\mu}m$ GaN HEMT foundry process that is developed by WIN Semiconductors, Inc. The bridged-T filter is modified to mitigate the bandwidth degradation of impedance matching due to the inherent channel resistance of the transistor, and the shorted stub with a bypass capacitor minimizes the output reactance of the transistor to ease wideband load impedance matching for maximum output power. The fabricated power amplifier MMIC shows a flat linear gain of 20 dB or more, an average output power of 40.1 dBm and a power-added efficiency of 19-26 % in 2 to 6 GHz, which is very useful in applications such as communication jammers and electronic warfare systems.

In this paper, an asymmetric compact multiband slot antenna is proposed for global positioning system (GPS), worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX), and wireless area network (WLAN) applications. The top plane, a ground is composed of a rectangular slot with a trapezoidal-like stub, an inverted U-shaped slot at the right side of the rectangular slot, an inverted L-shaped slot at the left side of the rectangular slot, and three stubs. The proposed antenna is fed by an asymmetric cross-parasitic strip on the bottom plane. By properly designing the slots and stubs, four resonant frequency bands are achieved with -10 dB reflection coefficient bandwidths of 50 MHz, 400 MHz, 390 MHz, and 830 MHz in the 1.57 GHz GPS band, 2.4 GHz WLAN band, 3.5 GHz WiMAX band, and 5.5 GHz WLAN bands, respectively. The antenna has a total compact size of $13mm{\times}32mm{\times}0.8mm$. Simulated and measured results indicate that the proposed antenna has sufficient bandwidth and good radiation performance in each band.
