A synthesized isotropic pattern antenna can be realized by arrangeing $\lambda$/ 2 dipole along each x, y, z axis. The sleeve type $\lambda$/ 2 dipole antenna is used as a basic element for a proper impedance matching at feeding point and minimum mutual coupling effect between each element at 820 MHz - 895 MHz band. The total electric field intensity radiated from the designed isotropic pattern antenna is drived from the magnetic vector potential which is produced by each sleeve $\lambda$/ 2 dipole in the far field. This total electric field intensity is inversely proportional only to distance $\gamma$from the origin of coordinates, and pattern factor variation is less than 2.1dB. The measured value of total electric field variation depending on pattern factor is less then 2.8dB, and the difference between the calculated and measured value is 0.7dB.

The current blood control system is using barcode and scanning one by one to manage blood bags. To have better management and accuracy, an RFID BIS (blood information system) is implemented with an UHF RFID tag antenna using a reflecter for a blood bag has been used.. The UHF RFID tag for blood bag, attached on the high permittivity blood, is designed and fabricated. The tag antenna is optimized and fabricated with the simulation tests such as the existence and nonexistence of the reflector, various distance between the reflector and the dipole tag, the different widths of the reflector and the existence and nonexistence of the T-matching structure. The characteristics and the reading range patterns of the tag antennas are measured. The BIS is implemented with the new tag design.

In this paper, the gain enhancement of an SDPA using a director and two parasitic patches is studied. The modified balun is used to increase the bandwidth, whereas the director and two parasitic patches are appended to the SDPA to enhance the gain in the middle and high frequency bands. The effects of the distance between the director and parasitic patches on the antenna performance are analyzed, and the SDPA with a gain over 7 dBi at 1.54-2.99 GHz band is designed. The proposed SDPA is fabricated on an FR4 substrate with a dimension of $90mm(L){\times}135mm(W)$ in order to validate its performance. The fabricated antenna shows a frequency band of 1.56-3.10 GHz for a VSWR < 2, and it is confirmed by measurement that gain maintains over 7 dBi in the frequency range of 1.54-3.00 GHz.

In this paper, A novel spatial power combiner with wideband printed dipole antennas and balanced amplifier is proposed. The wideband spatial power combiner is proposed to improve power capability and bandwidth by using balanced amplifier and wideband printed dipole antenna, respectively, The proposed 4${\times}$1 spatial power combiner with those components has the characteristics that the 3-dB bandwidth is 1.02 GHz (17 ％), and the effective isotropic power gain (EIPG) is 24.04 dB at 6 GHz. Also, power combining efficiency is 68.69％.

In this paper, the design of 64 array antennas applied to RWP (Radar Wind Profiler) was described. The design point of the antenna is to ensure isolation between each element and to match the vertical / horizontal radiation pattern. To this end, a single element of the array antenna was proposed as a Bend dipole type, and through simulation, When sequentially sending 5 beams including vertical, the east/west/south/north direction was ±20°, and it was confirmed that no Grating Lobe occurred when steering the beam. The 64 array antenna proposed in this paper was designed with performance equal to or higher than that of overseas products, and was confirmed to be applicable to RWP.

A wearable T-matching dipole UHF RFID tag antenna has been designed using conductive electro-thread. The conductivity of the electro-thread has been measured depending on the number of twisted thread. The measured conductivity has been used for simulation to have accurate simulation results. The flexible electro-thread or fabric has been used for fabricating the antenna instead of using copper tape since the electro-thread is more flexible and wearable than copper tape. The return loss and reading range of the fabricated electro-thread UHF RFID tag antennas have been tested. The reading range is approximately 2.4 m.

At present the general trend of modern electronics is toward smaller packages and high performance. As an antenna requires high powers, the EMC(Electromagnetic Compatibility) problems of the transmission line stage is becoming crucial day by day. In this paper, a transmission line excited by the electromagnetic fields from an infinitesimal electric dipole antenna is analyzed using the modified telegrapher's equations. The analytical equations are derived for arbitrarily positioned electric dipole with reference to a transmission line. To verify our approach, the induced voltage and current at the terminal were computed by the proposed approach and compared with those obtained by the electromagnetic simulation solver. Furthermore, the induced currents at the terminal of a transmission line excited by the electric dipoles at various positions were investigated using our approach.

In this paper, we considered a design method of a compact quasi-Yagi antenna for portable UHF RFID readers. The antenna consists of a dipole driver and a reflector printed on a dielectric substrate, and it is fed by a microstrip line. In order to reduce the antenna size, the dipole and reflector are bent and the balun between the feeding microstrip line and coplanar strip (CPS) line is integrated within the CPS line. The effects of the geometrical parameters of the proposed antenna on the antenna performance are examined, and the parameters are adjusted to be suitable for the operation in UHF RFID band (902-928 MHz). The size of the fabricated antenna is $70mm{\times}75mm$, and the experiment results reveal a frequency band of 892-942 MHz for a voltage standing wave ratio < 2, a gain > 3.5 dBi, and a front-to-back ratio > 6.6 dB over the frequency band for UHF RFID.

Measurement uncertainty assessment is very important in measurement and calibration. RRL provides antenna calibration services for EMI test. Reliability of EMI test depends on accurate antenna calibration. Antenna calibration results have to be accompanied with measurement uncertainty for its better reliability. In the late of 2005, CISPR issued the CISPR/A/644/C which describes the antenna calibration and measurement uncertainty. In this paper, on the basis of CISPR/A/644/C, we provide the measurement uncertainty values for dipole antenna calibration at the Calibration Test Site(CALTS) of Icheon. The antenna calibration method is 3-antenna height-scanning-averaging method, which measures the free-space antenna factor. We also considered all uncertainty sources that can affect measurement results during calibration.
