In this paper, using diplexer structure and varactor diode controlled by reverse bias voltage for diplexer switch gives possibilities to improve isolation and current characteristics. 1 have newly designed switch with high isolation by application varactor diode corresponding to capacitor of diplexer. The low-pass filter for proposed tunable diplexer passes the microwave signal in the bandwidth for wireless cellular network systems and high-pass filter passes it in the bandwidth for wireless personal communication services (PCS) network systems. As the capacitance of the low-pass filter increases, the cut-off frequency can be moved to low frequency, so that the switch is on state in cellular bandwidth and off state in the PCS bandwidth, in contrast to, as the capacitance for attenuation characteristic of high-pass filter increases, it can be moved to high frequency, so that the switch is off state and on state in the cellular bandwidth. it is possible to improve isolation and current consumption characteristics by application diplexer design methods and varactor diode. 1 expect that the tunable diplexer circuit and design methods should be able to find applications on MMIC and low temperature copired ceramic (LTCC).

In this paper, a two-mass system for SiOG (Silicon on Glass) vibratory gyroscope with the need of frequency tuning was proposed to increase the stability of the device with wide bandwidth. Air damping and bandwidth were analyzed using MATLAB. The measured resonance frequency is 5.2 kHz, which is 7 kHz in the design. But the measured bandwidth is 450 Hz, similar to the designed bandwidth with 500 Hz. Also the frequency difference (210 Hz) between the driving and sensing part is smaller than the wide bandwidth of two mass system.

An SIW cavity is a useful tool to design an FSS which shows a rapid roll-off rate and insensitivity to polarizations and incident angles of electromagnetic waves. However, due to its high Q-factor, the FSS also shows narrow bandwidth which is undesirable for high-capacity communication. To address this drawback, we propose a novel technique to enhance the bandwidth while maintaining similar frequency response characteristics and minimizing the increase of the overall thickness of the SIW cavity FSS. In order to verify the performance of the technique, simulated frequency responses will be provided. Also, a parameter which affects the bandwidth will be studied. Finally the stability to polarizations and incident angles will be observed through the simulated results.

This paper presents a clock and data recovery circuit with an adaptive loop bandwidth calibration scheme and the idle power saved frequency acquisition. The loop bandwidth calibration adaptively controls injection currents of the main loop with a trimmable bandgap reference circuit and trains the VCO to operate in the linear frequency control range. For stand-by power reduction of the phase detector, a clock gating circuit blocks 8-phase clock signals from the VCO and cuts off the current paths of current mode D-flip flops and latches during the frequency acquisition. 77.96% reduction has been accomplished in idle power consumption of the phase detector. In the jitter experiment, the proposed scheme reduces the jitter tolerance variation from 0.45-UI to 0.2-UI at 1-MHz as compared with the conventional circuit.

According to the rapid development of the electric industry, the demand of the frequency allocation and the usage of electromagnetic wave are increased due to automation of modem society. Electromagnetic wave absorbers for anechoic chamber are needed to broaden the effective frequency bandwidth, reduce the thickness, and decrease the weight. There are various absorbers proposed for the above conditions, but they could not decisively solve the above requirements. The Electromagnetic wave absorber made by a conventional ferrite tile has, for example, broadened the effective frequency bandwidth by the way of forming air layer(practically in urethane foam, etc.) on the ferrite tile. Therefore, an air layer is formed between a reflection plate and a sintered Ni-Zn ferrite tile of 7 mm in thickness, which has reflectivity less than -20 dB from 30 MHz to 400 MHz in bandwidth. In this paper, a broadband electromagnetic wave absorber are designed, which has the reflection characteristics less than -20 dB from 30 MHz to 8,000 MHz in the bandwidth. A super broadband electromagnetic wave absorber is achieved by inserting square Ferrite Cylinders Type with the thickness less than 23.5 mm and with the frequency band from 30 MHz to 8,000 MHz under the above tolerance limits. The purpose of this research is on the development of a universal anechoic chamber for measuring radiated electromagnetic wave or immunity of electronic equipments, GTEM-cell and also a wall material for preventing TV ghost, etc.

Electromagnetic wave absorbers for anechoic chamber are needed to broaden the useful frequency bandwidth, reduce the thickness, and decrease the weight. There are various absorbers proposed for the above conditions, but they could not decisively solve the above requirements. The Electromagnetic wave absorber made by a conventional ferrite tile has, for example, broadened the useful frequency bandwidth by the way of forming air layer. Therefore, an air layer is formed absorber between a reflection plate and a sintered Ni-Zn ferrite tile of 7 mm in thickness, which has reflectivity less than -20 dB from 30 MHz to 450 MHz in frequency band, far narrower than the aimed bandwidth. The purpose of this paper is on the development of a universal anechoic chamber for measuring radiated electromagnetic wave or immunity of electronic equipments, GTEM-cell, wall material for prevention of TV ghost, etc. Accordingly, in this paper, a broadened electromagnetic wave absorber is designed, which has the reflection characteristics less than -20 dB from 30 MHz to 5,430 or 8,000 MHz in the bandwidth. Then we will design a super broadband electromagnetic wave absorber by inserting square Ferrite Cylinders Type with the thickness less than 23.5 m in three-layed type and with the frequency band from 30 MHz to 5,430-8,000 MHz under the above tolerance limits.

Herein, electromagnetic shielding structures to reduce the external noise coupling to printed spiral coils (PSCs) and a design method for improving the bandwidth of shielded PSCs have been proposed. It has been demonstrated that the bandwidth of shielded PSCs is limited due to the parasitic capacitance between the coils and the shielding structures and is confirmed by the transfer function simulation of the shielded PSCs with a transmission line as the radio-frequency interference noise source. A design method for the bandwidth improvement of the shielded PSCs has been proposed based on the equivalent circuit model analysis and the case studies depending on PSC designs with a three-dimensional field simulation. With the design method, an optimized shielded PSC design has been presented and successfully confirmed by experimental verification in that the optimized design results in a significant bandwidth improvement.

In order to control interference and improve spectrum efficiency in the femtocell and macrocell overlaid system (FMOS), we propose a joint frequency bandwidth dynamic division, clustering and power control algorithm (JFCPA) for orthogonal-frequency-division-multiple access-based downlink FMOS. The overall system bandwidth is divided into three bands, and the macro-cellular coverage is divided into two areas according to the intensity of the interference from the macro base station to the femtocells, which are dynamically determined by using the JFCPA. A cluster is taken as the unit for frequency reuse among femtocells. We map the problem of clustering to the MAX k-CUT problem with the aim of eliminating the inter-femtocell collision interference, which is solved by a graph-based heuristic algorithm. Frequency bandwidth sharing or splitting between the femtocell tier and the macrocell tier is determined by a step-migration-algorithm-based power control. Simulations conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm showed the frequency-reuse probability of the FMOS reuse band above 97.6% and at least 70% of the frequency bandwidth available for the macrocell tier, which means that the co-tier and the cross-tier interference were effectively controlled. Thus, high spectrum efficiency was achieved. The simulation results also clarified that the planning of frequency resource allocation in FMOS should take into account both the spatial density of femtocells and the interference suffered by them. Statistical results from our simulations also provide guidelines for actual FMOS planning.

In this paper, the O-mode ultrashort-pulse reflectometry (USPR) millimeter-wave signals that propagate into the plasma and cover a frequency bandwidth of 33-158 GHz are examined numerically using MATLAB. Two important processes are involved in the computation: the propagation of the USPR impulse signal through a waveguide and the frequency up-conversion using millimeter-wave mixers. These mixers are limited to intermediate frequency signals that are less than 500 mV; thus, it is necessary to disperse the impulse signal into a chirped waveform using the waveguide. The stationary phase method is utilized to derive a closed-form formula for a chirped waveform under the assumption that the USPR impulse is Gaussian. In the process of frequency up-conversion, the chirped waveform is mixed with the mixer LO signal, and the lower frequency components of the RF signal are removed using high pass filters.
