초록

본 논문에서는 연선의 성능 측정을 위한 혼합 모드 산란계수 측정시스템을 제안하였다. 연선은 균형 형태의 소자로써 일반적으로 동축 형태로 구현된 네트워크 분석기를 이용하여 특성 측정이 불가능하다. 이때, 발룬을 이용하여 균형 신호와 불균형 신호 간 변환을 통해 측정이 가능하지만 측정 주파수 대역폭이 제한되는 문제가 있다. 제안하는 시스템은 발룬을 사용하지 않고 4포트 벡터 네트워크 분석기와 설계한 고정구를 이용하여 혼합모드 산란계수를 측정하여 연선의 성능을 측정한다. 제안하는 시스템을 이용하여 상용 이더넷 케이블의 성능을 측정해보고 발룬의 이용한 결과와 비교해 보았다. 이를 통해 제안하는 시스템을 이용해 연선의 성능 측정이 가능함을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we proposed a mixed-mode s-parameter measurement system for measuring the performance of twisted pairs. A twisted pair is a balanced type component, its characteristics can not be directly measured using network analyzer, which is generally implemented as a unbalanced type. It is possible to convert between balanced signal and unbalanced signal by using a balun but it restricts the frequency range of the measurement system. The proposed system measures the performance of twisted pairs by measuring mixed-mode s-parameters using a 4-port vector network analyzer and a designed fixture, without using a balun. We measured the performance of a commercial Ethernet cable and compared with the results which measured by using baluns. The results showed that the proposed system is capable of measuring the performance of twisted pairs.
