In this work, A PLDRO (Phase Locked Dielectric Resonator Oscillator) which can be used for the wireless communication systems fur MMC(Microwave Micro Cell) and ITS wireless communication system is designed. A different approach to the PLDRO structure is applied for phase locking by dual phase lock loop structure. The proposed dual loop PLDRO generates the output power of 0 dBm at 18.7 GHz and has the characteristics of a phase noise of -80 dBc/Hz at 1kHz, -83 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset frequency from carrier frequency

M-WiMAX (Mobile-Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) system, which uses OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) technique, is known to be proper for mobile high-speed data transmission system. Nevertheless, M-WiMAX is seriously sensitive to IQ imbalance caused by the LO (Local Oscillator) at the receiver. In this paper, we analyze the effect of IQ imbalance on the system, and then propose a joint optimization scheme that can optimize DFE (Digital Front-end) of mobile modem by combining operation duplicated between AGC (Automatic Gain Control) and the estimation and compensation of IQ imbalance. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme achieves the same performance of the conventional scheme while reducing the complexity of the H/W implementation.

Microwave dielectric properties and far infrared reflectivity spectra of the (Zr0.8Sn0.2)TiO4 ceramics were inves-tigated with the various cooling rate. Dielectric constant was nearly same value while the unloaded Q value was largely affected by cooling rate. The Q.f of 42,140 at 7 GHz was obtained for the specimens with cooling rate of 1$^{\circ}C$/min. The effect of the cooling rate on the change of the ionic the electronic polarization and the intrinsic microwave loss of the specimens were investigated by the infrared reflectivity spectra from 50 to 4000cm-1 which were calculated by Kramers-Kroning analysis and the classical oscillator model. The relative tendency of microwave dielectric properties of the specimens calculated from the relfectivity data were in good agreement with the results by the post resonant method.

In this paper, we propose a energy-saving LED module using K-band microwave motion detecting sensor. To oscillate K-band microwave signal, An oscillator using a hairpin-type microstrip resonator was designed to increase stability and make fabrication easier. To radiate the microwave signal, a two-channel(TX/RX) patch antenna arrays was developed. Wilkinson power divider and ring hybrid mixer were developed and applied to obtain Doppler shift from the received signal. Shield cans were installed to protect the stability of the signals and unwanted external noise. The proposed motion detection sensor was mounted on a demonstration LED module and the energy saving performance through pre-test was verified.

In this paper, we propose a S-band oscillator with a reduced electrical size by applying a vertical split ring resonator(VSRR). The VSRR is a type of split ring resonator that operates as a resonator by the capacitance and inductance generated between the microstrip lines arranged on the top and bottom of the dielectric substrate and it has an advantage that the electrical size of the resonance circuit can be reduced as compared with the conventional ring resonator. In this paper, we design a VSRR operating over S-band and an oscillator using the VSRR as the resonant circuit. The proposed oscillator showed the output of 5.9dBm at 2.4HGz and showed the phase noise characteristics of -112.58dBc at 100KHz offset frequency and -117.85dBc at 1MHz offset.

In this work, a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) was demonstrated for 10-GHz band motion detecting sensors. The VCO MMIC was fabricated using a $2-{\mu}m$ InGap/GaAs HBT process, and the tuning of the oscillation frequency is achieved by changing the internal capacitance in the HBT, instead of using extra varactor diodes. The implemented VCO MMIC has a micro size of $500{\mu}m{\times}500{\mu}m$, and demonstrates the value of inserting the VCO into a single chip transceiver. The experimental results showed that the frequency tuning characteristic was above 30 MHz, with the excellent output flatness characteristic of ${\pm}0.2dBm$ over the tuning bandwidth. And, the VCO MMIC exhibited a phase noise characteristic of -92.64 dBc/Hz and -118.28 dBc/Hz at the 100 kHz and 1 MHz offset frequencies from the carrier, respectively. The measured values were consistent with the design values, and exhibited good performance.

The resonance frequency of the slot-line resonator in the shielding box is analyzed. It is verified experimentally that an X-Band oscillator may be realized by the resonator in the microstrip circuit mount as a shielding cavity, and by shunt-connecting the IMPACT diode on the slot-line, And the oscillating power can be coupled with the microstrip by the coupling aperure on the opposite surface of the microstrip by the coupling aperure on the opposite of the substrate of the microstrip cirsuit.

This paper presents a new active antenna consisting of a microstrip patch for the passive radiator, a mixer for frequency conversion, a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) and a phase detector for phase control. The microwave signal frequency has been converted into intermediate frequency (IF) on the antenna elements by the mixer. The active antenna consists of two ports, the IF port has a transmitted IF signal via power combined to the baseband and the dc control port is under the control of the phase-detector. The input voltage of the VCO is controlled by the phase detector. The scan range of the array is determined by the phase detector and the VCO and is obtained between 30$^{\circ}$ and - 30$^{\circ}$
