본 논문에서는 한쪽이 단락된 스트립선로(Stripline)와 Loading 캐패시턴스(Capacitance)로 구성된 새로운 형태의 1/4파장 스트립선로 공진기를 제안하였으며, 이 공진기를 이용해서 5.2 GHz 대역 무선 LAN용 적층 대역통과 여파기를 설계, 제작 하였다. 제안한 공진기의 전파지연효과(Slow-wave Effect) 때문에, 기존의 공진기에 비해서 길이가 축소되며, 기준 공진주파수(Fundamental Resonant Frequency)에 대한, 첫 번째 기생공진주파수(First Spurious Resonant Frequency) 값이 커지기 때문에, 넓은 상향저지대역(Wide Upper Stopband)을 갖는 초소형의 대역통과 여파기의 설계가 가능하다. 설계한 여파기를 LTCC 적층 공정 기술을 이용하여 제작하였으며 그 크기는 $3.2mm{\times}1.6mm{\times}0.8mm$ 이다.

In this paper, A compact ultra-wideband(UWB) bandpass filter(BPF) with WLAN notched filter has been proposed. H-shaped slot is studied and adopted to tighten the coupling of inter-digital capacitor in order to improve the BPF's performance. Three pairs of tapered defected ground structures(DGS) are formed to assign their transmission zeros towards the out of band signal, thereby suppressing the spurious passband. Also Meander line slot is developed to reject the undesired wireless local-area network(WLAN) radio signals. That's combining these three structures we obtain a small sized UWB BPF.

Grid voltage feedforward is extensively used for controlling grid-connected converters. However, the conventional voltage feedforward control reduces the stability margins of the converter connected to a high-impedance grid. The effect mechanism of voltage feedforward on the grid-connected converter control under high-inductive conditions of the grid impedance is clearly explained in this study using the equivalent transformations of control block diagrams. Results show that the delay produced by the digital control is the root cause of this effect. An improved voltage feedforward strategy, in which a bandpass filter (BPF) is introduced into the feedforward path, is proposed to strengthen the converter's robust stability against grid impedance variations. The selection method of the BPF's bandwidth is also provided considering the tradeoff between the response speed to the grid voltage sag and the system's robust stability. The converter can work stably over a wide range of the grid impedance through the proposed approach. Simulation and experimental results fully verify the effectiveness of the BPF-based voltage feedforward strategy.

A wide spectrum of potential applications using substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) technologies in conjunction with air hole regions is introduced, and an efficient optimization methodology to cope with the multiple air hole effect in SIW applications is proposed. The methodology adopts a genetic algorithm to obtain optimum air hole dimensions for the specific propagation constant that can be accurately calculated using the recursive and closed form equations presented. The optimization results are evaluated by designing an SIW bandpass filter, and they show excellent performance. The optimization methodology using the proposed equations is effective in performance enhancement for the purposes of low loss and broadband SIW applications.

A method for the ratiometric pH sensing using LysoSensor DND-192 is presented in this paper. It works in the physiological pH range. It is based on the use of two fluorophores which differ significantly in their lifetimes. As the discrimination of their emissions is performed through two different frequencies, this method can allow significant overlap of the emission spectra. A simple long-pass filter, or a combination of long-and short-pass filters, was used instead of narrow-bandpass devices. Importantly, the measurements were carried out under strong ambient light. The method could be used in a wide variety of applications, such as intracellular measurements, microscopy, bioprocess monitoring, etc.

전압제어 트랜스컨덕터를 설계하여 튜닝범 위가 넓은 Gm-C 대역통과 필터를 CMOS 공정으로 설계하였다 Gm-C 필터는 트랜스컨덕터와 캐패시터로 구성된 적분기를 기본으로 구현되고 있다. 따라서 트랜스 컨덕터는 출력단에 캐패시터를 연결하였을 때 이상적인적인 적분기의 특성에 가까울수록 필터의 특성이 좋아지고 PLL 구조의 튜닝이 용이해진다. 본 논문에서는 1:3이상의 범위에서 튜닝이 가능하고 PLL을 기본으로한 자동튜닝과 선형전압 튜닝을 조합하여 주파수 제어회로를 설계하였다.

In this paper, a new method is suggested to reduce the size of a wide-band array antenna. The power-divider for the feeding structure is made compact as ${\lambda}/8$ with the help of a novel Metamaterial UWB bandpass filter. This power divider is clearly different from others in that the proposed design uses microstrip structured Composite Right and Left-Handed (CRLH) filters, while others use two dielectric layers or long tapered transmission lines. In order to validate the proposed design method, the circuit and full-wave simulated results of the power divider with the Metamaterial UWB filters are compared to each other, and the Metamaterial properties of the structure are shown with the electric field at the ZOR and dispersion diagram. Furthermore, the antenna performance of the fabricated antenna with the power divider is measured and compared with the prediction. Also, the size reduction effect by the proposed scheme is addressed.

This paper presents a compact, low insertion loss, sharp rejection and wide band microstrip band pass filter that is composed rectangular loop resonator and step-impedance-open-stub(SIOS) for wireless data communication. The SIOS can be reduce length about 30% more than general 0.25${\lambda}$ stub. And stubs can have the advantage of tuning impedance magnitude. In order to demonstrate agrement of this paper prove, the optimized wide band pass filters are realized and experimented. A transmission line model used to calculate the frequency response of the new filters shows good agreement with measurements. The filter with perturbation stubs has four poles at rejection band, the poles are excited 3.610GHz, 4.265GHz at low frequency band, 8.494GHz, 9.056GHz at high frequency band. And the filter has 3dB fractional bandwidth of 57%(3.695GHz), an insertion loss of better than 0.37dB from 4.549GHz to 8.244GHz, and two rejection of greater than 30dB within 237MHz(4.312GHz${\sim}$ 4.549GHz) at low frequency band, 234MHz(8.244GHz-8.491GHz) at high frequency band.
