In this paper, the MMIC SPST switches operating from DC to 3GHz were designed and implemented. Prior to the design of switches, the small and large-signal switch models were needed to predict switch performance accurately. The newly proposed small-signal switch model parameters were extracted from measured S-parameters using optimization technique with estimated initial values and boundary limits. In the extraction of large-signal switch model parameters, the current source was modeled by fitting empirical equations to measured DC data and the charge model was derived from extracted channel capacitances from measured S-parameters varying the drain-source voltage. To design basic series-shunt SPST switches and isolation-improved SPST switches, we applied this model to commercial microwave circuit simulator. The improved SPST switches exhibited 0.302dB insertion loss, 35.762dB isolation, 1.249 input VSWR, 1.254 output VSWR, and about 15.7dBm PldB with 0/-3V control voltages at 3GHz.

In this paper, the high efficiency balanced amplifier is presented as high efficiency power amplifier. This amplifier is basically composed of two FETs, an input power divider, output power combiner, input matching circuits, output matching circuits, second harmonic interconnection circuit and lowpass filter. The second harmonic interconnection circuit is composed of second harmonic frequency bandpass filter and transmission line. This circuit is inserted between the output terminals of the two FEF's output matching circuit, there is a second harmonic standing wave generated between two FET outputs. The electric wall termination is equivalent to the short circuit termination. As a result, the FET output termination condition needed to attain high efficiency is realized. Experimental high efficiency balanced amplifier is constructed to determine its practically attainable efficiency. The input VSWR is 1.27, and the output VSWR is 1.18. Power added efficiency of 75% is attained at 1.75 GHz band about 3W to balanced amplifier.

The novel internal monopole chip antenna of penta-band operation for GSM850/GSM900/DCS/USPCS/WCDMA bands for mobile phones is proposed. This antenna occupies a small volume $8\times3.2\times20mm^3$ and is suitable to be embedded in a mobile phone as an internal antenna. The minimization of the proposed antenna was realized by using spiral line structure and meander line structure on FR-4 of dielectric$(\varepsilon_r=4.4)$. The designed antenna has the wide-band operation in the upper band by overlapping high order resonances. The measured bandwidth of this antenna (VSWR>3) is 150MHz$(1,030\sim1,180\;MHz)$ in the lower band operation and 650 MHz$(1,760\sim2,410\;MHz)$ in higher band operation. The measured radiation efficiency within bandwidth(VSWR 3:1) is over 50 %. The antenna has been designed by a commercial software HFSS.

In this paper, it is designed a microstrip U-slotted patch antenna with double resonances to enhance the bandwidth. In the design of an U-slotted patch antenna, there are considered the input impedance, the width of patch, the total length of the slot, the height of foam, the position of the probe and the radius of feed pin. The broadband behavior of antenna can be obtained by adjusting the length and width of the slot. The radiation from the antenna is linear polarized with the E-paine parallel to the vertical slots and the H plane parallel to horizontal slot. The radiation pattern, impedance locus, and VSWR of the antenna are calculated using "ENSEMBLE" software, and compared with the experimental results. Experimental results show that the bandwidth for VSWR $\le$ 2:1 is about 28.6%, a directivity 14.18dBi at 6.040GHz. 6.040GHz.

The broadband power detector for power amplitude envelope detection of the direct-conversion Six-port output signal was designed and implemented in this paper. The power detector should be linearly operated to produce the linear amplitude and phase signal for input RF signals in required broadband frequency range. The power detector should be designed under conditions of matching circuit with low VSWR, which protect unbalanced phase signal from reflection signal due to mismatch between the output port of a six-port and the input port of a power detector. The designed power detectors, which were implemented in L-band with 50 ohm matching and Ku-band with multiple LC matching circuits and isolator, respectively, were analyzed in viewpoints of the utilization as a power detector of direct conversion Six-port. The dynamic range of designed power detectors were also measured and rvaluated as a power detector of Six-port circuit.

As it takes a lot of time and money to develop an aircraft, an environment for renovating and using existing operating aircraft has been created. As a result, many old aircraft were renovated, and due to the aging of the aircraft, more demanding cable requirements were required for renovation projects, and as the number of equipment inside the aircraft gradually increased, the difficulty of system integration increased. In order to solve the difficulties of system integration through systematization of verification procedures, this paper explains VSWR, I-loss, which are the main indicators of antenna cable modification, and explains DTF, one of the problem detection methods. It also explains the elements required for cable design, the environment to be measured, and procedures, and introduces the overall process and effect of antenna cable improvement through demonstration cases.

In this paper, we proposed a broadband U-shaped RFID tag antenna with near-isotropic characteristic at UHF band. The proposed tag antenna is composed of the U-shaped half wavelength dipole and a rectangular shaped feed. The rectangular shaped feed that is located inside U-shaped dipole is connected for conjugate impedance matching with the commercial tag chip. A better constant gain deviation characteristic in the operating frequency band is achieved by inserting a rectangular slit in the lower center of the U-shaped antenna body. On the condition of VSWR<2, the tag antenna had the measured bandwidth of 10.36%, from 860.5 to 954.5 MHz, and 9.84%, from 864.5 to 954 MHz, for antenna without slit and with slit, respectively. On the condition of VSWR<5.8, the tag antennas had the measured bandwidth of 15.78%, from 835.5 to 979.5 MHz, and 15.89%, from 837 to 981.5 MHz, for antenna without slit and with slit, respectively. The difference between the maximum and minimum gain deviations of tag antenna without slit in the operating frequency band is 0.53 dB since the maximum and minimum gain deviations are 3.86 dB and 3.33 dB, respectively. Whereas the difference between the maximum and minimum gain deviations of tag antenna with slit in the operating frequency is 0.06 dB since the maximum and minimum gain deviations are 3.60 dB and 3.54 dB, respectively.
