In this paper, we propose an asymmetric dipole antenna utilizing the metal case as a ground radiator for a pen-type wireless presenter which operates in the ISM frequency band(2.4~2.48 GHz). A normal mode helix mounted on the top end of the long metallic cylinder case which acts as the ground plane takes the form of the asymmetric dipole structure in the proposed antenna. The metallic cylinder case which performs as a radiating element increases the inherent narrow bandwidth and low gain of the helix. The effects of the hand contacts with the metal case on the antenna performance are measured and analyzed with a specially designed human phantom. Experimental results show that the -10 dB return loss bandwidth of the proposed antenna in free space(no hand contact) is 200 MHz that ranges from 2.3 to 2.5 GHz and the maximum gain is measured to be 5 dBi. Under the normal operating condition where the metal case is contacted with a human hand, the bandwidth is 480 MHz from 2.24 to 2.72 GHz. The maximum gain is 2 dBi, lowered by 3 dB due to the hand contact.

This feasibility study evaluated an optically transparent planar antenna using liquid salt-water as the conducting material. The most significant reason behind using liquid salt-water for transparent antenna applications is its excellent average optical transparency (OTav) (> 95% at a salinity of 40 ppt) compared to other typical solid transparent thin-film electrodes, such as indium tin oxide (ITO:> 73%) or multi-layer films (MLF: > 78%). Each conductive arm of the proposed dipole is constructed from a salt-water layer held between two clear planar acrylic layers (��r = 2.61, tan�� = 0.01, OTav > 90%) (acrylic/salt-water/acrylic; ASA) due to surface tension. To examine the electrical and optical properties of the ASA structure, the surface tension was measured to determine the thickness of the salt-water layer that finalized its sheet resistance and OTav. The average gain and efficiency of the antenna were 1.72 dBi and 74%, respectively, in the operating UHF (Ultra high frequency) band (470-771 MHz). Therefore, the proposed antenna can be a good candidate for applications as a transparent planar antenna using salt-water.

최근에 새로운 전파이용기술이 상용화됨에 따라, 주파수 혼신 및 상호간섭에 의한 무선설비의 보호 및 전파이용 통신서비스의 질적 수준의 유지를 위하여 무선장비들에서 나오는 출력 전력을 제한하고 있다. 현재, 국내에서는 출력전력을 공중선전력(전도성전력)으로만 측정을 하는데, 이것은 실제로 복사되는 출력전력이 아니므로 좀더 정확한 출력전력의 측정방법을 알아보기 위해 국내.외의 복사성 전력의 기술기준 및 측정방법을 비교 분석하였다. 분석 결과 미국과 유럽은 실제로 복사되는 출력전력을 안테나에서 나오는 출력전력뿐만 아니라 안테나의 이득까지 고려한 복사성 전력인 EIRP(등가등방성복사 전력 : Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power)와 ERP(유효복사전력: Effective Radiated Power)를 사용하여 측정하고 있었다. 또한 복사성 전력 측정시 주파수대 별로 1GHz이하인 경우에는 기준 안테나를 반파장 다이폴 안테나를 사용하여 ERP로 측정을 하며, 1GHz 이상인 경우에는 기준 안테나를 혼 안테나를 사용하고 ERP로 측정을 하고 있었다. 따라서,우리나라도 보다 정확한 출력 전력의 측정 및 규제를 위하여 실제로 복사되어지는 EIRP와 ERP를 고려 할 필요가 있다.

This paper presents radiation pattern reconfigurable antenna for Fitbit Flex wristband which detects vital signal. Also, the paper presents Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) from the loop-dipole radiation pattern reconfigurable antenna based on the position of human body.

The proposed antenna satisfied the standard SAR value of 1.6 W/kg in 1 g tissue of the human body when the Bluetooth communication input average power of 0.04 W is excited to five parts of human body (head, chest, stomach, back, wrist). The maximum SAR value of in this simulation is presented in the part of head.

A nonlinear shaping method for a wire antenna is presented to improve the limited pulse radiation ability due to the frequency characteristics with nulls which are found in the conventional straight or V antennas. The developed scheme is based on the minimization of frequency-dependence of the radiated electric field intensity over wide band, hence giving the ripple-type frequency characteristics. It is shown that the synthesized shape has more advantage in the case of shorter pulse. That is, we found that for shorter pulse exciting, the radiated peak value of the synthesized antenna is larger than that of the conventional linear antenna. The inverse discrete Fourier transform based on the moment method is used for the transient analysis of current distribution and far field electric field.

In this paper, a multi-layered metallic disk array structure(MDAS) excited by cross-dipole elements was proposed for efficiently shaping of flat-topped element patterns(FTEP) with circular polarization. The MDAS excited by cross-dipole elements has advantages to decrease in volume and weight of an overall array antenna and so, it is appropriate for the FTEP applications of a ralativlely low frequency band. In order to verify the effectness of this structure, the MDAS breadboard operated at X-band(7.9 ∼ 8.4 GHz) was fabricated, and its design parameters were experimentally optimized on the basis of the previous design experience. The experimental results were shown that the MDAS could shape good FTEPs of ${\pm}$20$^{\circ}$beam width at least within a 6.1 % frequency band.
