In this thesis work, a 3-stage ultra broadband amplifier operating in 2-18 GHz frequency band with gain 23 dB is designed, simulated and fabricated. The amplifier is based on cascaded, reactively terminated single stage distributed amplifier (CRTSSDA) concept. The idea of including reactive terminations to achieve broadband gain is investigasted and simulated. The simulated design is fabricated and measurements of the fabricated amplifier are compared with simulation results. Also practical experience on working at high frequencies with surface mount components is presented in this thesis work.

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 ...
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 ...
Modelling and noise analysis of closed-loop capacitive sigma-delta mems accelerometer
Boğa, Biter; Külah, Haluk; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2009)
This thesis presents a detailed SIMULINK model for a conventional capacitive Σ-Δ accelerometer system consisting of a MEMS accelerometer, closed-loop readout electronics, and signal processing units (e.g. decimation filters). By using this model, it is possible to estimate the performance of the full accelerometer system including individual noise components, operation range, open loop sensitivity, scale factor, etc. The developed model has been verified through test results using a capacitive MEMS accelero...
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....
Analysis and modeling of high power microwave modules
Yapıcı, A. Çağrı; Toker, Canan; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2004)
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 mo...
