In this paper, we proposed the internal antenna on PCB(Planar Circuit Board) for achieving WWAN(Wireless Wide Area Network) operation in the laptop computer. The proposed antenna has a metal structure instead of printed pattern on PCB to improve the antenna characteristics for GSM850/900 bands. Compared to PCB embedded antenna without metal structure, the proposed antenna occupies similar area of $74{\times}11{\times}0.5\;mm^3$ with before and the bandwidth of the proposed one for GSM850/900 bands is increased 13 MHz than before. Further we confirmed that the proposed antenna has higher radiation gain of -4.45~-2.29 dBi for GSM850/900 bands than PCB embedded antenna without metal structure.

A grid connected inverter must be operated as the main electricity source under an isolated condition caused by the grid problem. Conventionally, the dual loop controller is used for the grid inverter, and the controller is used for control under the stand-alone mode. Generally, the PI(Proportional - Integral) controller is highly efficient under a synchronous reference frame, and stable control can be available. However, in this synchronous frame-based control, high-quality DSP is required because many sinusoidal calculations are necessary. When the PI control is conducted under a stationary frame, the controller constructions are made simple so that they work even with a low-price micro controller. However, given the characteristics of the PI controller, it should be designed with the phase of reference voltage considered. Otherwise, the phase delay of the output voltage can occur. Although the current controller also has a higher bandwidth than the voltage controller, distortion of the voltage is difficult to avoid only by the rapid response of the PI controller, as a sudden load change can occur in the nonlinear load. In this study, a new control method that solves the voltage controller bandwidth problem and rapidly copes with it even in the nonlinear load situation is proposed. The validity of the proposed method is proved by simulation and experimental results.

In this paper, it investigated the permitted limit of the analog nonideality for the SOSOC Σ-Δ modulator design which is satisfied with 1 [MHz] signal bandwidth and 12-bit resolution in the OSR=25. Firstly, it get the SOSOC Σ-Δ modulator model and gain coefficient which is suitable in low voltage for the Σ-Δ modulator design which is satisfied with the specification in the supply voltage 3.3 [Vl. And it provided the performance prediction of the Σ-Δ modulator and the permitted limit of the nonideality by adding the performance degradation facts of the Σ-Δ modulator such as the finite gain of the amplifier, the SR, the closed-loop pole, the switch ON resistance and the capacitor mismatch to the ideal Σ-Δ modulator model. When designed the Σ-Δ modulator which is satisfied with the specification by the base above, it will be able to predict the performance of the Σ-Δ modulator and the guide for the specification of the circuit which composes the Σ-Δ modulator.

This paper is about band pass filter, using Ceramics in the condition of center frequency 370Hz at milli-wave. The band pass filter is applied to Broadband Convergence Network, representing WLL(Wireless Local Loop) and LMDS(Local Multi-point Distribution Service). Sticking ceramic between strip line on a dielectric material substrate with which conductor's covers upper and basal surface, One will house the exterior by using structural resonance. In this Non Radiative Microstrip Line Filter structure, based upon simulations, generalized the two formulas finding resonant frequency of 1step ceramic resonator and bandwidth of 4step ceramic resonator. Also, As a result of experiment, using Network Analyzer, about created a experiment of structure based on the simulation result of 4-step ceramic resonator, It showed good characteristic of targeted bandwidth, comparing simulated result of 36.58GHz$\sim$37.650GHz with experimented result of 36.6GHz$\sim$37.65GHz.

A novel PLL with a delta-sigma modulator and a spur reduction circuit is proposed. delta-sigma modulator makes the LF remove noise easily by moving the spur noise to a higher frequency band. Therefore, the magnitude of spur can be reduced the reasonable bandwidth. The spur reduction circuit reduces the spur size by reducing the LF voltage change generated during the period of reference signal. The spur reduction circuit is designed as simple as possible not to increase the size of PLL. The proposed PLL with the previous two techniques is designed with a supply voltage of 1.8V in a 0.18um CMOS process. Simulation results show an almost 20dB reduction in the magnitude of spur. The spur reduced PLL can be used in narrow bandwidth communication system.

A source-synchronous receiver based on a delay-locked loop is presented. It employs a shared global calibration control between channels, yet achieves channel expandability for high aggregate I/O bandwidth. The global calibration control accomplishes skew calibration, equalizer adaptation, and phase lock of all the channels in a calibration period, resulting in the reduced hardware overhead and area of each data lane. In addition, the weight-adjusted dual-interpolating delay cell, which is used in the multiphase DLL, guarantees sufficient phase linearity without using dummy delay cells, while offering a high-frequency operation. The proposed receiver is designed in the 90-nm CMOS technology, and achieves error-free eye openings of more than 0.5 UI across 9-28 inch Nelco4000-6 microstrips at 4-7 Gb/s and more than 0.42 UI at data rates of up to 9 Gb/s. The data lane occupies only $0.152mm^2$ and consumes 69.8 mW, while the rest of the receiver occupies $0.297mm^2$ and consumes 56.0 mW at the 7- Gb/s data-rate and supply voltage of 1.35 V.

The implementation and design of the wideband IFIU using aperture open loop resonator and reversed phase technique to reduce the local oscillator leakage signal was represented in this paper. The local oscillator leakage signal is generated in stage of frequency conversion, especially in frequency conversion of fully digital modulation signal close to DC signal. The leakage signal and spurious signals, which have effects on adjacent channel or in-band channel as interference signals, were reduced below -60 dBc for 45 Mbps and 155 Mbps IF interface units. The group delay for both IFIUs shows low ripple characteristics of 15 ns and 8 ns, respectively. Also, the amplitude ripple characteristic in 150 MHz bandwidth with L-band center frequency satisfies the required specification of 2 dB. The implemented IFIU provides the required specifications for wideband satellite communication system.

In this paper, a new signal canceller that input signals are equally group-delayed and cancelled each other is proposed and feedforward linearizing power amplifier that adopt the proposed signal cancellers is fabricated. Although the conventional signal canceller can't matches the phase and the group delay time of input signals simultaneously, the proposed signal canceller matches those simultaneously. Simultaneous matching of the phase and the group delay time can makes wideband signal cancellation. The main signal cancellation loop of the fabricated feedforward amplifier with the proposed signal cancellers cancel input signal more than 26.3 dB and the intermodulation distortion signal cancellation loop cancel more than 15.2 dB for 200 MHz bandwidth. And the proposed feedforward power amplifier improves C/I ratio by 20.8 dB with two tones at 2,115 MHz, 2,165 MHz, respectively.
