Power Divider Integrated Circuit

Abstract

This research presents a Wilkinson power divider using a common inductor. The lumped topology uses the inherently inductive loss of the inductor as a part of the design, so the conventional resistor for high isolation can be omitted. Therefore, low-loss and high-isolation performances of the compact circuit were achieved. The proposed 2.5-GHz divider was implemented on a silicon-based integrated passive device process. Measurement of the prototype chip had a reflection coefficient below 18 dB at all ports, an insertion loss of 0.5 dB and isolation above 28 dB. The chip size is merely 0.011 wavelength x 0.019 wavelength.

Objective

ตัวกระจายสัญญาณวิลกินสัน (WPD) ในรูปแบบวงจรรวมได้รับการศึกษาอย่างกว้างขวางในช่วงความถี่ไมโครเวฟและคลื่นมิลลิเมตร วงจรสายส่งแบบรวมถูกนำมาใช้แทนสายส่งแบบกระจายในการออกแบบตัวแบ่งกำลังไฟฟ้าความถี่เดียว แบนด์คู่ แบนด์กว้าง และแบนด์กว้างพิเศษ [1-12] วงจรสายส่งแบบรวมโดยทั่วไปจะอยู่ในรูปแบบของสายส่งแบบขวามือ (หรือแบบธรรมดา) แต่สายส่งแบบซ้ายมือและแบบผสมขวา/ซ้ายมือก็พบได้ในแอปพลิเคชันต่างๆ มากมายเช่นกัน [13] ในการวิจัยนี้ เราจะเสนอวิธีการออกแบบใหม่โดยใช้ตัวเหนี่ยวนำร่วมตัวเดียวเพื่อนำไปใช้กับตัวแบ่งกำลังไฟฟ้าวิลกินสันแบบกะทัดรัด ตัวต้านทานในตัวแบ่งกำลังไฟฟ้าวิลกินสันถูกละเว้น เนื่องจากการออกแบบใช้การสูญเสียโดยธรรมชาติของตัวเหนี่ยวนำ เพื่อลดกระบวนการปิดบังตัวต้านทานจึงสามารถลดได้ในการผลิตวงจรรวม มีการเพิ่มตัวเก็บประจุเพิ่มเติมเพื่อสร้างวงจรเรโซแนนซ์สำหรับการจับคู่ ดังนั้นแม้จะมีส่วนประกอบจำนวนน้อยและมีตัวเหนี่ยวนำคุณภาพต่ำ แต่วงจรดังกล่าวก็ยังมีประสิทธิภาพดีกว่าวงจรแบบเดิม

Encapsulation of Anthocyanins in Spray-Dried W/O/W Emulsion

This study aims to investigate the encapsulation of anthocyanins in water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) emulsions and their spray-drying process to enhance anthocyanin stability against external factors such as light, temperature, and pH changes. The W/O/W emulsion was prepared using suitable surfactants and dried using a spray dryer at an inlet temperature of 120–140°C and an outlet temperature not lower than 80°C. The results showed that the composition ratios of water, oil, and surfactants significantly influenced the physical and chemical properties of the emulsion, as well as the encapsulation efficiency of anthocyanins. The spray-dried W/O/W emulsion demonstrated effective anthocyanin retention and improved long-term stability, making it applicable for food and health-related products.

A Comparison of The Performance of Machine Learning Methods on Time Series Data Using Lagged Time Intervals

This special problem aims to compare the performance of machine learning methods in time series forecasting using lagged time periods as independent variables. The lagged periods are categorized into three groups: lagged by 10 units, lagged by 15 units, and lagged by 20 units. The study employs four machine learning methods: Decision Tree (DT), Random Forest (RF), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), and Support Vector Machine (SVM). The time series data simulated as independent variables diverse including characteristics: Random Walk data, Trending data, and Non-Linear data, with sample sizes of 100, 300, 500, and 700. The research methodology involves splitting the data into 90% for training and 10% for testing. Simulations and analysis are performed using the R programming language, with 1,000 iterations conducted. The results are evaluated based on the average mean squared error (AMSE) and the average mean absolute percentage error (AMAPE) are calculated to identify the best performing method. The research findings revealed that for Random Walk data, the best performing methods are Random Forest and Support Vector Machine. For Trend data, the best performing methods are Random Forest. For Non-Linear data, the best performing methods are Support Vector Machine. When tested with real-world data, the results show that for the Euro-to-Thai Baht exchange rate, the best methods are Random Forest and Support Vector Machine. For the S&P 500 Index in USD, the best performing methods are Random Forest. For the Bank of America Corp Index in USD, the best performing methods are Support Vector Machine.

The use of Houttuynia cordata Thunb and Piper retrofractum Vahl extracts to inhibit opportunistic infections in patient with atopic dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis patients are the second largest number among skin disease patients. There is no cure for atopic dermatitis, and it can only be treated to relieve symptoms, causing chronic disease. There is a chance that opportunistic infections will enter and cause more disease from the patient's wound, causing the patient to have complications from other infections. This study is interested in studying the reduction of the chance of opportunistic infections in patients with atopic dermatitis using natural extracts. The interest is in Plu Kaow and long pepper because there is data supporting the inhibition of microorganisms. The leaves of both plants are crudely extracted, soaked in 95% ethanol for 7 days, filtered with a Buchner filter, and the extracts are tested for phytochemicals to analyze phenolic components, flavonoids, tannins, anthocyanin, DPPH, and tested for antimicrobial properties. The experiments consisted of 5 types of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria: E. coli, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Staphylococcus epidermidis. The researcher expects that this can be further developed and used to treat patients with atopic dermatitis.
