A triple-band transceiver module for 2.3/2.5/3.5 GHz mobile WiMAX, IEEE 802.16e, applications is introduced. The suggested transceiver module consists of RFIC, reconfigurable/multi-resonance MIMO antenna, embedded PCB, mobile WiMAX base band, memory and channel selection front-end module. The RFIC is fabricated in $0.13{\mu}m$ RF CMOS process and has 3.5 dB noise figure(NF) of receiver and 1 dBm maximum power of transmitter with 68-pin QFN package, $8{\times}8\;mm^2$ area. The area reduction of transceiver module is achieved by using embedded PCB which decreases area by 9% of the area of transceiver module with normal PCB. The developed triple-band mobile WiMAX transceiver module is tested by performing radio conformance test(RCT) and measuring carrier to interference plus noise ratio (CINR) and received signal strength indication (RSSI) in each 2.3/2.5/3.5 GHz frequency.

This paper presents the circuit design and implementation of a HomePNA (Home Phoneline Network Alliance) 1M8 PHY transceiver for specification ver1.1. This paper describes a physical medium interface, an Ethernet MAC controller unit interface, and a management interface of the HomePNA transceiver. The designed HomePNA transceiver can support any specifications having more than 32Mbits/sec(maximum in HomePNA ver2.0) transmission rate by changing physical medium interface, because Ethernet MAC controller unit interface has been designed by using MII.

차세대 이동통신 서비스나 Beyond 4G 이동통신 서비스의 단말기는 유비쿼터스 정보화 사회의 도래에 발맞춰 기존의 single mode 시스템에서 탈피하여 3G LTE, Mobile WiMAX(WiBro), DMB, IEEE 802.11b/g/n 등의 다중 이동통신 서비스를 지원하는 단말기로 발전하는 추세이다. 또한 고속 데이터 전송을 위한 MIMO 및 스마트 안테나 등의 다중 접속 기능은 다중 밴드/다중 모드/다중 경로 처리 구조의 RF transceiver를 요구하고 있다. 이러한 융합 universal 단말기를 구현하기 위해서는 여러 이동통신 서비스를 지원하는 "Reconfigurability and Convergence" RF transceiver가 필요하지만 현재의 집적 기술로는 0-수 GHz에 할당되어 있는 모든 이동통신 서비스를 지원하는 단말기 구현에 제약사항이 많기 때문에 미국 및 유럽의 국외 연구기관과 기업에서는 2-3개의 선택적인 이동통신 서비스를 지원하는 RF transceiver를 개발하여 세계 시장에서 경쟁 준비를 하고 있다. 본 고에서는 차세대 이동통신 단말기의 RF transceiver 칩 셋 기술과 국내외 개발 동향에 대해 살펴보고자 한다.

A simultaneous bidirectional transceiver over a single wire has been developed in a 65 nm CMOS technology for a command and control bus. The echo signals of the simultaneous bidirectional link are cancelled by controlling the decision level of receiver comparators without power-hungry operational amplifier (op-amp) based circuits. With the clock information embedded in the rising edges of the signals sent from the source side to the sink side, the data is recovered by an open-loop digital circuit with 20 times blind oversampling. The data rate of the simultaneous bidirectional transceiver in each direction is 75 Mbps and therefore the overall signaling bandwidth is 150 Mbps. The measured energy efficiency of the transceiver is 56.7 pJ/b and the bit-error-rate (BER) is less than $10^{-12}$ with $2^7-1$ pseudo-random binary sequence (PRBS) pattern for both signaling directions.

Near-Field Communication (NFC) is a short-range wireless communication technology evolved from RFID especially for the exchange of data between active and passive devices. This paper presents the mathematical models for the signal path of a NFC transceiver system and a behavioral simulation platform using MATLAB simulink. The approximated mathematical models simplify the simulation complexity of a transceiver and provide a quick evaluation. With this calculation platform, we can evaluate the system performance caused by the noise and the non-linearity of the individual blocks, and caused by system variables such as Effective Number of Bits (ENOB) of ADC and filter cutoff frequency. This platform provides us with a rapid prototyping, a reliable system design, and an efficient risk management during development of the NFC transceiver ICs.

UWB(Ultra Wide Band) system for high speed and high accurate location has been studying actively. This paper presents the design and implementation of RF transceiver for DS-CDMA(Direct Sequence-Code Division Multiple Access) UWB device. Major components of RF transceiver such as Low Noise Amplifier(LNA) and Band Pass Filter(BPF) are designed and then fabricated to meet wideband characteristics. The RF transceiver was implemented by the use of the fabricated components and commercial devices after carrying out performance simulation. Through the performance evaluation of the UWB RF transceiver with W-CDMA signal, the approach of design, implementation and evaluation of RF transceiver which is available to DS-CDMA UWB system is verified.

Generally, flight information is transmitted by voice signal over legacy UHF radio in ground to air communication system. In this paper, we have implemented the transceiver of TDL(tactical data link) which transmits tactical information, such as flight information, using digital signal. For transmitting digital information over radio path, we have designed data modem that is processing CPFSK modulation, and TDMA(Time Division Multiple Access) network for Synchronization among multi user(platform). By simulating aeronautical propagation modeling with the environment of Korea terrain, it is predicted the maximum performance of communication range of the transceiver. As result of the transceiver's aviational boarding test, it is proved that the transceiver of TDL over legacy UHF radio transmits and receives the tactical information in TDMA network within communication range of 160km.

The current-mode circuit technique to design a bi-directional current transceiver for remote control systems and telemetering systems is presented in this paper. The proposed transceiver can transmit and receive the industrial standard current signal 4-20mA at the same time using two wires connection. The realization method is based on a second generation current conveyor (CCII) and a current mirror, which can be implemented using a commercially available device. To demonstrate the performance of the proposed scheme, the transceiver was simulated by the use of the PSPICE analog simulation program. The simulation results verifying the circuit performance are agreed with the expected values. The crosstalk of the proposed transceiver of about .63dB is observed.

This paper reports on the development of a 60㎓ wide bandwidth wireless transceiver using NRD waveguide. We fabricated a wireless transceiver using NRD waveguide, which consists of a 3 dB directional coupler, a bandpass filter, a Gunn oscillator, an ASK modulator, and a Balanced Mixer. The new transceiver is capable of transmitting an output power of 10mW to a distance of more than 1 Km, operating in 60㎓ frequency and bandwidth of 2㎓. The value of BER reached approximately 10 when the transceiver was tested at the 155.52Mbps ATM(OC 3) at the communication distance of 1 km. It demonstrated an impressively stable transmission feature of BER l0$^{6}$ even in the heavy rainfall.
