A curvature variable taper is proposed for a waveguide-microstrip transition. It is applied to a ridge waveguide. The curvature depends on the taper length and difference of waveguide's height and microstrip substrate's height. The taper is manufactured easier than the other tapers. It's reflection coefficient is smaller than the parabolic taper's below one wavelengrh. The results of experiment show that S$_{11}$ is below -20dB and SS$_{21}$ is about -0.5dB in the band of 10~15 GHz. These results are good agreement with the theoritical values.

A class-E RF(Radio Frequency) power amplifier for wireless application is designed using standard CMOS technology. To drive the class-E power amplifier, a class-F RF power amplifier is used and the reliability characteristics are studied with a class-E load network. The reliability characteristic is improved when a finite-DC feed inductor is used instead of an RF choke with the load. After one year of operating, when the load is an RF choke the output current and voltage of the power amplifier decrease about 17% compared to initial values. But when the load is a finite DC-feed inductor the output current and voltage decrease 9.7%. The S-parameter such as input reflection coefficient(S11) and the forward transmission scattering parameter(S21) is simulated with the stress time. In a finite DC-feed inductor the characteristics of S-parameter are changed slightly compared to an RF-choke inductor. From the simulation results, the class-E power amplifier with a finite DC-feed inductor shows superior reliability characteristics compared to power amplifier using an RF choke.

Retroreflector is different from other reflecting surfaces as it mades reflection in which radiation is returned in directions close to its incoming direction. Because of this characteristics, retroreflectors find many applications in traffic safety related areas. Retroreflectors are usually made using comer cubes, or partially coated glass beads. These glass beads can be made very small, so that they can be coated on sheets or mixed with paints. The design of glass type retroreflector depends on glass bead's shape and material, and its optical characteristics are related to the refractive index of glass. In this paper, a method of anlyzing glass bead type retroreflector's sptical characteristics with respect to shape and optica property of the glass, is presented. First, the coefficient of retroreflection, which is a measure of retroreflector's optical characteristics, is derived analytically using geometrical optics method. And the result is plotted using numerical methods. The results show good match with those obtained experimentally, which were supplied from a commercial retroreflector manufacturer.

본 논문에서는 PHEMT의 소 신호 산란계수를 이용하여 일본에서 사용하는 X-band 대역의 차량 속도 사전 제한 경보기용(Radar Detector) 전압제어 발진기를 설계 제작하였다. 전압 제어 발진기를 구현하기 위해서 넓은 동조 범위와 직렬저항이 0옴인 바렉터 다이오드를 사용하였고, 트랜지스터의 작동전압과 공진 주파수를 결정하는 마이크로 스트립 선로와 바렉터 소자와의 반사계수를 조정하여 위상잡음은 10kHz 오프셋에서 -85 dBc/Hz, 기본 주파수 신호 출력 크기는 +4.5 dBm, 제2고조파 억제는 -25.6 dEc를 얻었다. 본 논문에서 제작한 샘플이 감도에서 기존 제품들보다 우수한 특성이 나오는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Purpose: Dual cylindrical microwave chambers equipped with an ohmic heating tube were designed and fabricated to maximize the electric field strength for expeditious heat treatment of particulate foods. Methods: The efficacy of the combination heater was investigated by simulating the electric field distribution by using COMSOL Multiphysics software. Results: All components of the designed microwave heating unit were suitable for transmitting maximal microwave power to the load. The simulated electric field distribution implied that single-mode microwave heating would be sufficient for the steady generation of a highly localized heating zone in the cavity. During impedance matching, the calculated reflection coefficient ($S_{11}$) was small, possibly implying minimal power loss and wave reflection in the designed microwave heating chamber. Conclusions: This study demonstrates the possibility of concentrating the microwave power at the centerline for a single-frequency microwave, for thermal treatment of multiphase foods without attenuating the microwave power.

Studies have been actively conducted on the magnetic-resonance wireless power transmission (WPT) for commercialization. Such studies are essential for improving the transmission efficiency. In the magnetic-resonance WPT, the inductance (L) and capacitance (C) vary significantly depending on the design of the coils, and the efficiency sharply changes accordingly. To address this problem, studies on the coil design are required. In this study, the S-parameter characteristics according to the number of turns of the coil were analyzed to improve the efficiency of the superconducting WPT. Superconducting coils were designed, and the reflection coefficient ($S_{11}$) according to the turns was analyzed. It was confirmed that the power transmission characteristics were improved as the reactance approached $0{\Omega}$

Bismuth-substituted yttrium iron garnet(Bi-YIG; $Bi_xY_{3-x}Fe_5O_{12}$, x=0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0) thin films were fabricated on glass substrates using a metal organic decomposition (MOD) method. The dielectric property was measured by NSMM(Near-field scanning microwave microscopy) system that operating frequency is 4 Ghz. The obtained reflection coefficient $S_{11}$ of the Bi:YIG thin films with different bismuth concentration was increased as the bismuth concentration increased due to the lattice mismatch and vacancy of ions because of a lager ionic radius of bismuth ion than yttrium ion.

This paper describes the development of bulk acoustic wave (BAW) resonators using a PolyVinyliDene Fluoride (PVDF). The resonators have an air gap between a substrate for acoustic isolation without surface micromachining. We measured the resonance frequency and the input reflection coefficient (S$\sub$11/) of resonators using vector network analyzer. The fundamental resonance in this experimental result was measured at 1.4 ㎓ with a return loss of -23.2 ㏈. We can confirm a possibility of resonator application as using a PVDF because it can fabricate the resonator without etching process.

A digital spectrum analysis technique was used to estimate the tissue characteristic parameters (transmission velocity and attenuation coefficient) in the phantom study and the human liver's ultrasound scanning. The soft tissue equivalent phantom was made with the combination materials of agar, water, powdered graphite, and n-propyl alcohol. In the human study, twenty five normal subjects and three patients with liver diseases were studied using the ultrasonic reflection signals and the spectrum analysis method The following results were obtained; 1. The soft tissue-equivalent materical could be produced with various acoustic parameters by changing the composition amount of the powdered graphite and n-propyl alcohol. 2. Attenuation coefficients of normal human liver tissue were estimated to be 0. 36 dB/cm MHz$\pm$0.11. In patients with liver disese, tile attenuation coefficients were shown to be different from the above normal values.
