A microwave module supplying up-to 1 Watt output power at 2.4-2.5 GHz frequency band was investigated. First the module was operated at low power levels and the output power was predicted using the small signal S-parameters of the module. A method was developed to obtain its large signal model using Advanced Design System (ADS) simulator̕s nonlinear analyses facilities. Later using the large signal model of the module simulations carried out to obtain larger powers up-to 1 Watt. The implementation of the module was performed using the SMD components on a microstrip substrate and the characteristics of the module were compared to the ones obtained using simulation results.

Design and realization of broadband instantaneous frequency discriminator Pamuk, Gökhan; Yıldırım, Nevzat; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2010) n this thesis, RF sections of a multi tier instantaneous frequency measurement (IFM) receiver which can operate in 2 – 18 GHz frequency band is designed, simulated and partially realized. The designed structure uses one coarse tier, three medium tiers and one fine tier for frequency discrimination. A novel reflective phase shifting technique is developed which enables the design of very wideband phase shifters using stepped cascaded transmission lines. Compared to the classical phase shifters using coupled ...
Analysis of conventional low voltage power line communication methods for automatic meter reading and the classification and experimental verification of noise types for low voltage power line communication network Danışman, Batuhan; Sevaioğlu, Osman; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2009) In this thesis, the conventional low voltage power line communication methods is investigated in the axis of automated meter reading applications and the classification and experimental verification of common noise types for low voltage power line communication network. The investigated system provides the real time transmission of electricity consumption data recorded by electricity meters, initially to a local computer via a low voltage line through a low speed PLC (Power Line Carrier) environment and sub...
Design and implementation of low phase noise phase locked loop based local oscillator Bölücek, Muhsin Alperen; Yıldırım, Nevzat; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2009) In this thesis, a low phase noise local oscillator operating at 2210 MHz is designed and implemented to be used in X-Band transmitter of a LEO satellite. Designed local oscillator is a PLL (Phase Locked Loop) based frequency synthesizer which is implemented using discrete commercial components including ultra low noise voltage controlled oscillator and high resolution, low noise fractional-N synthesizer. Operational settings of the synthesizer are done using three wire serial interface of a microcontroller....
Estimation of steady-state temperature distribution in power transformer by using finite difference method Gözcü, Ferhat Can; Ertaş, Arif; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2010) Estimating the temperature distribution in transformer components in the design stage and during the operation is crucial since temperatures above the thermal limits of these components might seriously damage them. Thermal models are used to predict this vital information prior to actual operations. In this study, a two-dimensional, steady-state model based on the Finite Difference Method (FDM) is proposed to estimate the temperature distribution in the three-phase, SF6 gas insulatedcooled power transformer...
Tunable frequency microstrip antennas by rf-mems technology Erdil, Emre; Aydın Çivi, Hatice Özlem; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2005) This thesis presents the design, fabrication, and measurement of tunable frequency microstrip antennas using RF MEMS (Microelectromechanical Systems) technology. The integration of RF MEMS components with radiators enable to implement tunable systems due to the adjustable characteristics of RF MEMS components. In the frame of this thesis, different types of structures have been investigated and designed. The first structure consists of a microstrip patch antenna which is loaded with a microstrip stub whose ...
