    2W wideband microwave PA design for 824-2170 MHz band using normalized gain function method
    (IEEE, 2013) Köprü, Ramazan; Kuntman, Hulusi Hakan; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    In this work, we present the design of a 2W linear wideband microwave PA (power amplifier) targeted to operate in 824-2170 MHz mobile frequency range covering GSM850, EGSM, DCS, PCS and WCDMA. The design is basically based on the NGF (Normalized Gain Function) method which is very recently introduced into the literature. NGF is defined as the ratio of T and |S-21|(2), i.e. T-NGF= T/|S-21|(2), shape of the gain function of the amplifier to be designed and the shape of the transistor forward gain function, respectively. Synthesis of input/output matching networks (IMN/OMN) of the amplifier requires target gain functions, which are mathematically generated in terms of TNGF. The particular transistor used in the design is FP31QF, a 2W HFET from TriQuint Semiconductor. Theoretical PA performance obtained in Matlab is shown to be in a very high agreement with the simulated performance in MWO (Microwave Office) of AWR Inc.

    A low loss, low voltage and high Q active inductor with multi-regulated cascade stage for RF applications
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015) Momen, Hadi Ghasemzadeh; Yazgı, Metin; Köprü, Ramazan
    Numerous structural planning of active inductors have been proposed as of not long ago in literature which showing tuning conceivable outcomes, low chip area and offering integration facility, they constitute promising architecture to replace passive inductors in RF circuits. The modified of a conventional active inductor based on Gyrator-C topology consisting of both transconductance stages realized by common-source configuration with multi-regulated cascade stage is presented. The Q factor and value of active inductor is adjusted with bias current and flexible capacitance, respectively. Multi regulated cascade stage is used to boost gain of input impedance and inductor value and decrease series resistance of designed inductor witch caused loss. The circuit is suitable for low voltage operation, high quality factor and low power dissipation. Simulation results are provided for 90 nm TSMC CMOS process with 1 V supply voltage. Self-resonance frequency and power consumption of active inductor is 8.9 GHz and 1.2 mW, respectively.

    CMOS high-performance UWB active inductor circuit
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc, 2016) Momen, Hadi Ghasemzadeh; Yazgı, Metin; Köprü, Ramazan; Saatlo, Ali Naderi
    In order to maximize efficiency of the designed gyrator-based active inductor, advanced circuit techniques are used. Loss and noise are most important features of the AIs, where they should be low enough to have high-performance device. The gyrator-C topology is used to design a new low-loss and low-noise active inductor. The gyrator-C topology is potentially high-Q and all transistors are utilized in common-source configuration to have high impedance in input-output nodes. All transistors are free of body effect. The p-type differential pair input transistors and the feed forward path are employed to decrease noise of the proposed circuit. Additionally, inductance value and quality factor are adjusted by variation bias current which gives to the device tunable capability. HSPICE simulation results are presented to verify the performance of the circuit, where the 180 nm CMOS process and 1.8 V power supply are used. The noise voltage and power dissipation are less than 2.8 nV/ ? Hz and 1.3 mW, respectively.

    Design and implementation of wideband microwave amplifiers based on Normalized Gain Function
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2014) Köprü, Ramazan; Kılınç, Sedat; Aksen, Ahmet; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    In this work, we introduce the design and implementation of wideband microwave amplifiers based on "Normalized Gain Function (NGF)" method. Normalized Gain Function is defined as the ratio of desired shape or frequency response of the gain function of the amplifier to be designed and shape of the transistor forward gain function. Synthesis of input/output matching networks (IMN/OMN) of the amplifier require target gain curves as the functions of normalized gain function to be tracked in two sequential nonlinear optimization processes. A prototype low power amplifier circuit is produced and measured to show the usability of the design approach.

    A tunable inductance topology to realize frequency tunable matching networks and amplifiers
    (IEEE, 2013) Atilla, Doğu Çağdaş; Aydın, Çağatay; Köprü, Ramazan; Nesimoğlu, Tayfun; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    Coverage of commercial communication standards such as GSM, UMTS, Wi-Fi and Wi-Max within a single transceiver chip is one of the most desired properties by wireless communication manufacturers. In this regard, communication companies are keenly interested in the design of high power amplifiers for broadband cellular communications to achieve this coverage. In this work, design of broadband tunable matching networks is investigated using Real Frequency Techniques. In practical applications, tunability is needed to compensate for the load impedance variations with environmental effects. In order to be able to work on sample structures, impedance transforming filters with proper topology are chosen and a broadband tunable matching network with a tunability strategy is developed. Eventually a broadband amplifier has been designed using the tunable inductor concept.

    Computer aided darlington synthesis of an all purpose immittance function
    (Istanbul University, 2016) Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa; Aksen, Ahmet; Köprü, Ramazan; Kumar, Narendra Senthil; Aydın, Çağatay; Atilla, Doğu Çağdaş; Chacko, Prakash
    This work is the continuation of our high precision immittance synthesis paper series introduced in IEEE TCAS-I. In the present manuscript, we modified the previously introduced high precision Bandpass LC-ladder synthesis algorithm to include the extraction of finite frequency and right half plane (RHP) transmission zeros of an impedance function as Brune/Darlington Type-C sections. Finite frequency and RHP transmission zeros are extracted employing our newly introduced modified impedance and chain parameters based algorithms one by one. After each transmission zero extraction, remaining immittance function is corrected using parametric approach. It is shown that propsed high precision synthesis algorithms can synthesize immittance functions up to 40 reactive elements with accumulated relative error in the order of 10- 1 . The modified high precision synthesis package is developed in MatLab environment and it is integrated with the real frequency techniques to design matching networks over broadbands. Examples are presented to exhibit the usage of the newly proposed high precision synthesis algorithms.

    Designing a new high Q fully CMOS tunable floating active inductor based on modified tunable grounded active inductor
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc, 2015) Momen, Hadi Ghasemzadeh; Yazgı, Metin; Köprü, Ramazan
    A new Tunable Floating Active Inductor (TFAI) based on modified Tunable Grounded Active Inductor (TGAI) is proposed. Multi regulated cascade stage is used in TGAI to boost gain of input impedance and inductor value thus the Q factor enhancement obtained. The arrangement of Multi-Regulated Cascade (MRC) stage is caused the input transistor which determines AI self-resonance frequency to be as small as possible and it is free of body effect which is crucial in sub-micron technology. Compared to traditional CMOS spiral inductors, the active inductor proposed in this paper can substantially improve its equivalent inductance and quality factor. This TFAI was designed using the AMS 0.18 um RF CMOS process, which demonstrates an adjustable quality factor of 10?567 with a 6?284 nH inductance. The Q factor and value of active inductor is adjusted with bias current and flexible capacitance (varactor), respectively. The self-resonance frequency for both grounded and floating AI is about 6.2 GHz. The proposed active inductor also shows wide dynamic range and higher quality factor compared to conventional floating active inductor circuits.

    A novel method to design wideband power amplifier for wireless communication
    (IEEE, 2013) Köprü, Ramazan; Kuntman, Hulusi Hakan; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    A new approach is presented to design microwave amplifiers to deliver maximum output power using Simplified Real Frequency Technique (SRFT). Proposed method tracks the maximum stable gain (MSG) curve of the active device (BJT, FET etc.) under consideration. Maximum Stable Gain Amplifier (MSGA) possesses higher gain than that of the constant or Flat Gain Amplifier (FGA) along the operating frequency band. Compared to FGA, it is this feature that makes MSGA high efficiency and low DC power consumption amplifier. Employing the proposed design method, a MSG power amplifier is constructed over the frequency band of 800-5200 MHz which can be utilized for GSM, UMTS, Wi-Fi and Wi-MAX applications.

The design is based on Simplified Real Frequency Technique (SRFT). A design of low power amplifier circuit is completed and its simulations are performed in success. The circuit is designed with lumped elements, however, some of the lumped elements are converted to distributed elements for their convenience in production. In this way, a mixed element wideband microwave amplifier comprised of input/output matching networks with lumped and distributed elements has been formed.

    (IEEE Computer Society, 2015) Köprü, Ramazan; Aydın, Çağatay; Atilla, Doğu Çağdaş; Kılınç, Sedat; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık Binboğa
    Design of an X band horn antenna and a wideband unit element microstrip bandpass filter (UEBPF) for this antenna are presented with satisfactory agreement between theoretical and simulation results. Numerical methods known as real frequency techniques (RFTs) have been utilized in Richards domain to yield optimum driving point Darlington input impedance function belonging to the UEBPF that enables a maximum RF power transmission between the designed horn antenna and an RF driving source. Using a high precision Richards immittance synthesis package in Matlab, characteristic impedance values of each UE, out of k number of commensurate (equal length) transmission lines forming the UEBPF, is extracted from the input impedance function. Theoretical design (Matlab of Mathworks Inc.) and simulation (ADS of Agilent Inc., HFSS of ANSYS Corp.) results are shown to be very promising and in a high degree of agreement with each other.
