Repeater is developed. Based on the systems The up-converter of the WCDMA Digital Optic pecifications, the structure of the up-converter is accomplished and its block diagram is drawn. The up-converter is implemented according to these block diagrams. Subsequently the low pass filter, the automatic level controlled attenuator, the frequency synthesizer and other components for the up-converter are designed and implemented, and a main board to integrate these modules is also manufactured. To reduce the noise floor of system and suppress the RF spurious noise, a PCB layout is performed carefully. For each module consisting of the up-converter and the entire system, the performance tests are accomplished to check the performance about the specifications.

Modified compact combline bandpass filters are proposed based on the miniaturized quarter-wave transmission line which is composed of the parallel coupled line and lumped capacitors. The electrical length of the parallel coupled line in a resonator, which determines the size of combline bandpass filters, is just $5^{\circ}$ or $7^{\circ}$, resulting in a compact circuit area. The designed combline bandpass filter also has a wide upper stopband by suppressing the spurious passbands, not moving. Measured results of two fabricated filters centered at 400MHz show good agreement with the theoretical predications.

A 440MHz wireless and passive surface acoustic wave (SAW) based micro-sensor was developed for simultaneous measurement of temperature and humidity. The developed sensor is composed of a SAW reflective delay lines structured by an IDT (Inter-Digital Transducer), four reflectors and humidity sensitive film (polyimide). Polyimide was dry-ecthed by RIE (Reactive Ion Etching) to obtain high roughness, which gives the large reaction area resulting in high sensitivity. In wireless testing using a network analyzer, sharp reflection peaks with high S/N ratio, small signal attenuation, and few spurious peaks were observed in the time domain. High sensitivity towards the temperature and humidiy were also observed in the large concentration range. The obtained sensitivity was $16.8^{\circ}/^{\circ}C$ for temperature sensor and $15.8^{\circ}$/%RH for humidity sensor.

This paper presents a method for analyzing and designing an extremely miniaturized planar ring hybrid, using the combination of parallel and diagonally shorted coupled lines. In contrast to conventional miniaturized coupled line filters, it is proven that the required electrical length of transmission line can be largely reduced to even a few degrees, not only effectively suppressing the spurious passband but also approximately maintaining the same characteristic around the stable center frequency. A ring hybrid filter at center frequency of 1 GHz was fabricated on the FR4 epoxy glass cloth copper-clad plat (CCL) PCB substrate. The insertion loss of a ring hybrid filter with the die area of $30mm{\times}30mm$ is -4.68 dB. Simulated results are well agreed with the measurements.

In this study, we present a new efficient hybrid-mixed composite laminated curved beam element. The present element, which is based on the Hellinger-Reissner variational principle and the first-order shear deformation lamination theory, employs consistent stress parameters corresponding to cubic displacement polynomials with additional nodeless degrees in order to resolve the numerical difficulties due to the spurious constraints. The stress parameters are eliminated and the nodeless degrees are condensed out to obtain the ($6{\times}6$) element stiffness matrix. The present study also incorporates the straightforward prediction of interlaminar stresses from equilibrium equations. Several numerical examples confirm the superior behavior of the present composite laminated curved beam element.

This paper proposes a new four node degenerated shell element. In the formulation of the new element, the assumed covariant shear strains are used to avoid the shear locking problem, and the assumed covariant membrane strains are applied to alleviate the membrane locking problem and also to improve the membrane bending performance. The assumed covariant strains are obtained from the covariant strain field defined with respect to the element natural coordinate system. This formulation enables us to obtain a shell element, which does not produce spurious singular modes, avoids locking phenomena, and excels in calculation efficiency. Several examples in this paper indicate that, despite its simplicity, the achieved accuracy and convergence are satisfactory.

In this paper, we examined receiving parameters of receiver and also analyzed them through simulation based on J-STD-018, which is the minimum specification of PCS mobile station. Receiving system was made a passive double balance mixer which has low gain and high IIP3, and an intermediate frequency amplifier for enhancing the low gain. The result of simulating receiving parameter is as follows: noise figure which is the parameter of specification of the receiving sensitivity is 6.746dB, IIP3 which is the parameter of specification of the intermodulation spurious response attenuation is -11.358dBm.

This paper describes a new design rule checking system, PC-DRC, for CIF mask layout, which was written in C language on IBM PC/AT under DOS 3.0 environment. H/W devices and S/W utilities for PC-DRC is identical to that for PC-LADY[6], which makes PC-DRC an ideal post-processing routine for CIF file generated by PC-LADY. Various spurious errors were eliminated by ORing the input ClF data for each layer and the design rule errors were checked by edge based method on rectilinear polygon form. The detected errors are stored in CIF and displayed on CRT simultaneously.

In this paper, the high-$T_c$ , superconductor (HTS) microstrip patch antenna which is directly coupled to a microstrip transmission line is designed and the numerical solution which evaluate near electromagnetic field of HTS antenna is presented. This solution uses the interpolation function with the vector edge triangular element. The advantage of this element is the elimination of spurious solutions attributed to the lack of enforcement of the divergence condition. The results of this method have a good agreement with $TM_10$ mode in HTS microstrip patch antenna and show that the computation of resonant length considering the fringing capacitance effect at radiating edge are proper.
