The design, fabrication, and an experimental implementation of the strip patch antenna coupled with a H-shaped aperture arc presented in this paper. The proposed antenna has the wide bandwidth, high gain, and low cross-polarization levels. We measured the VSWR, smith chart impedance characteristic, co/cross polarization pattern, gain, and so on. The measured bandwidth of this antenna is 47.1 %. To reduce the back lobe and increase the gain, when the reflector is used, cross polarization level is below -18.2dB at E-plane and below 25.7 dB at H -plane. The maximum gain at 2.05 GHz is also 10.4 dBi and the 3 dB gain bandwidth with center frequency at 2.17 GHz is 24 %, which is the wide bandwidth. This antenna can find applications in mobile communication, wireless LAN, RF communication system, and so on.

In this paper, high-efficiency DC-AC converter is implemented for the wireless power transmission. The DC-AC converter is implemented by combining the oscillator and power amplifier. Because the conversion efficiency of wireless power transmitter is strongly affected by the efficiency of power amplifier, the high-efficiency power amplifier is implemented by using the Class-E amplifier structure. Also, because the output power of oscillator connected to the input stage of power amplifier is low, high-gain two-stages power amplifier using the drive amplifier is implemented to realize the high-output power DC-AC converter. The dual band harmonic suppression filter is implemented to suppress 2nd, 3rd harmonics of 13.56 MHz. The output power and conversion efficiency of DC-AC converter are 40 dBm and 80.2 % at the operation frequency of 13.56 MHz.

This paper analyzes and accesses the gain of optically pumped surface-normal MQW optical amplifiers. The proposed amplifiers have the advantage of polarization independence, high coupling efficiency to and from optical fibers, and flexibility of operating wavelength. We analyzed the gain characteristics of 100 - 200-period MQWs and verified the dependence of a strained lattice and selective doping. Theoretical analysis of such MQWs showsa single-pass gain of 3 dB with broad operation bandwidth. A single-pass gain of 2.6 dB is obtained experimentally in an InGaAs/InGaAlAs MQW amplifier, which is compared with calculations. The use of Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) structure in an optical amplifier is a useful way to increase the gain, but causes a problem of narrow operation bandwidth when the single-pass gain is low. Therefore, a single-pass gain above 2to 3 dB is a prerequisite to achieve both a high gain and moderate operation bandwidth in FPI-structured opticalamplifiers. We have designed an FPI-structured surface-normal optical amplifier both with a high gain of broad operation bandwidth of 4.6mm, when a single-pass gain is 3 dB.

The gain-clamped EDFA has been developed to eliminate the output power change of WDM surviving channels to occur with added or dropped channels, which degrades the performance of WDM optical network. It maintains the constant gain of surviving channels when WDM channels are added or dropped in a network amplifying node. In this paper, the hi-directionally pumped gain-clamped EDFA is implemented to compensate the change of the input power by a lasing. The results show that the lasing of a short wavelength and backward propagation is the optimal condition to minimize the transient response of surviving channels in terms of the overshoot and gain saturation due to the inhomogeneous broadening effect.

In this paper, wideband two-stage amplification stage was designed, fabricated and evaluated. The proposed amplification stage with a novel gain control method have a high gain, low noise and high linearity performance. It is consisted of common emitter amplifier as the first stage, cascode gain control amplifier as second stage and power detector which sense the received signal strength. The proposed amplification stage shows a total gain of 29 dB~37 dB, noise fiugre of 1.5 dB at operating band and high linearity performance as the IMD (third intermodulation distortion) level is below the noise level of the measurement equipment at the control voltage 2.0 V generated from power detector under the strong electric field condition.

In this paper, we design a robust output feedback controller for robot manipulators with bounded parametric uncertainties using high-gain observer. The proposed control scheme with integral action improves tracking error due to limit of the robust feedback gains. High-gain observer is used to solve the noise problem with the joint velocity measurement. This controller avoids the limitation on the variation of unknown parameters and guarantees the uniformly ultimate boundedness of the closed-loop system. The performance of the proposed method is demonstrated by simulation on a 2-link manipulator.
