$H_2$ design of decoupled control systems is treated in the generalized plant model. The existence condition of a decoupling controller is stated and a parameterized form of all achievable decoupled closed loop transfer matrices is presented by using the directional interpolation approaches under the assumption of simple transmission zeros. The class of all decoupling controllers that yield finite cost function is obtained as a parameterized form and an illustrative example to find the optimal controller is provided.

We present the design of a compact microstrip lowpass filter with a wide stopband which is up to ten times the cutoff frequency. The filter is based on a coupled-line configuration and shunt open stubs. The open stubs create additional transmission zeros, which are used to extend the stopband of the filter without any additional components or cascaded units. A prototype lowpass filter with a 3 dB cutoff frequency of 0.428 GHz and a 15 dB stopband extended up to 4.77 GHz is fabricated to validate the theoretical predictions.

This paper proposes an alternate time-switched space-frequency block coding transmission technique for single-carrier modulation with frequency domain equalization. There are two antennas in the transmitter but it still has only a baseband and RF and a switch that alternates between the antennas at every symbol timing. Alternating transmit symbols result in zeros which make maximal ratio receive combining possible in the receiver. Simulation results show that it has better performance than the traditional algorithm at the expense of one additional antenna.

This paper proposes an alternate time-switched multiplexed space-time block coding technique for orthogonal frequency division modulation systems. The traditional multiplexed space-time block coding technique can provide more data rate owing to multiple transmit and receive technique, which causes a lot of hardware burden. Alternate time-switched scheme of transmitting time-domain zeros can reduce this hardware burden by half with time-domain switches only. Simulation results show that alternate time-switched scheme has almost same performance with half of baseband and RF modules in comparison with a multiplexed space-time block coding for orthogonal frequency division modulation systems with twice repetitive transmission.

This letter presents a new approach to synthesize the resonator filters of an arbitrary topology. This method employs an optimization method based on the relation between the polynomial coefficients of the transfer function and those of the $S_{21}$ from the coupling matrix. Therefore, this new method can also be applied to self-equalized filters that were not considered in the conventional optimization methods. Two microwave filters, a symmetric 4-pole filter with four transmission zeros (TZs) and an asymmetric 8-pole filter with seven TZs, are synthesized using the present method for validation. Excellent agreement between the response of the transfer function and that of the synthesized $S_{21}$ from the coupling matrix is shown.

This paper proposes a tunable combline bandpass filter with high selectivity, constant bandwidth, and good stopband performances. A filter with these characteristics is obtained by applying cross-coupling to the conventional combline bandpass filter using stepped-impedance resonators(SIRs). For high selectivity and constant bandwidth, cross-coupling is utilized and the SIR configuration is used for enhanced stopband performances. The proposed combline tunable bandpass filter with 5% of fractional bandwidth at 1.6 GHz was fabricated and tested. The measured results showed 11.6% tunability with constant bandwidth, high selectivity and enhanced stopband characteristics.

In this paper, a planar type bandpass filter in multilayered PCB is presented. The multilayered PCB structure has some advantages on fabricating microwave devices such as the size reduction and ability of tight coupling by folding or embedding. The proposed BPF has two transmission zeros at the both sides of the center frequency by using independent electric and magnetic coupling structure. The designed BPF with four layer teflon PCBs of dielectric constant 2.94 has dimensions of 24x20x1.524 in mm, center frequency of 2.47GHz and bandwidth of about l00MHz. A good agrement is achieved between the measured result and the simulated one. The influences of air gaps between the layers are also analyzed and presented.

This paper proposes a method that can reduce the complexity of a system matrix by analyzing the characteristics of a pseudoinverse matrix to receive a binomial frequency division multiplexing (BFDM) signal and decode it using the least squares (LS) method. The system matrix of BFDM can be expressed as a band matrix, and as this matrix contains many zeros, its amount of calculation when generating a transmission signal is quite small. The LS solution can be obtained by multiplying the received signal by the pseudoinverse matrix of the system matrix. The singular value decomposition of the system matrix indicates that the pseudoinverse matrix is a band matrix. The signal-to-interference ratio is obtained from their eigenvalues. Meanwhile, entries that do not contribute to signal generation are erased to enhance calculation efficiency. We decode the received signal using the pseudoinverse matrix and the removed pseudoinverse matrix to obtain the bit error rate performance and to analyze the difference.

고속 데이터 전송 모뎀 및 고밀도 기록/재생 장치에서 채널에 의해 초래된 신호간 간섭 등의 왜곡을 감축시키는 적응 등화기는 구동초기에 수신부/재생부에서도 알고 있는 데이터 신호(훈련신호)의 전송을 필요로 하고 이것은 결과적으로 실제 정보 데이터의 전송시간 감축 또는 기록미디어의 사용 효율 저하를 초래 한다. 또한 burst-mode 데이터 전송 등의 경우에서와 같이 훈련신호를 보내기가 곤란한 경우도 있다. 따라서 훈련신호 없이 동작하는 블라인드 적응 등화기술에 대한 연구에 최근까지도 많은 노력이 집중되고 있지만 관련 기술 및 성능 평가에서 기본적으로 nonlinear processing 및 분석기법을 필요로 하기 때문에 아직까지도 규명해야 될 요소들이 많이 남아 있다. 특히 효율적인 주파수대역 활용을 추구하는 부분응답 신호 방식의 경우에 해당 채널의 전달함수 영점들(zeros)이 단위원 위에 있어 등화기가 신호간 간섭을 감축시키기 위해 채널 특성을 보상하는 과정에서 등화기 입력에 들어오는 채널 첨가잡음의 증폭도 초래하기 때문에 성능이 저하된다. 이에 대응하여 본 논문에서는 기존 기법들의 성능상의 문제점을 연구한 후에, 성능 개선을 이룰 수 있는 새로운 블라인드 적응 등화 기법을 제시한다. 연구 결과는 고속 데이터 전공 모뎀 등 부분 응답 신호 방식을 사용하는 채널 등화 방식에 모두 적용 가능하지만 특히 HDD, digital VCR등의 고밀도 magnetic 기록/재생 채널을 대상으로 한 평가 결과에서 유용성을 보여 준다.

In this paper, two new circuit structures for European and U.S. ultra-wide band(UWB) bandpass filters(BPFs) with sharp roll-off characteristics are introduced. We show first that the ultra-wide bandpass property is obtained from a $\lambda$/4 open T resonator with a capacitively coupled $\lambda$/4 short-circuited line, which provides two attenuation poles at lower and upper cutoff frequencies. Then, two identical capacitively coupled input/output lines, which can be $\lambda$/4-length open ends or $\lambda$/2-length short ends, with the T-resonator, are adopted to suppress lower and higher frequency components outside of the pass band. There is coupling between the input and output lines providing two additional transmission zeros in the lower and upper transition bands of the filter. Since the coupling between the T-resonator with the $\lambda$/4 short-circuited line and the input/output lines limits the bandwidth of the filter to the European UWB band, both the $\lambda$/4 short-circuited line and the input/output lines are inserted between the two stacked T-resonators for the U.S. UWB band. The filter structures are simulated with ADS and HFSS and realized with low-temperature co-fired ceramic(LTCC) green tape which has the dielectric constant of 7.8. Measurement results agree well with HFSS simulation results.
