In this study, a numerically efficient method for the analysis of microstrip structures is considered in conjunction with the use of closed-form spatial Green's functions. As is well-known, the use of the closed-form Green's functions can reduce the evaluation time of impedance matrix elements. However the problematic aspect that in general the evaluation results of diagonal elements of the matrix converge slowly, has been observed. The main cause of the slow convergence has been due to the terms of closed-form Green's functions with small exponent. In other to resolve the problematic aspect, a method of numerical integration based on the change of variable is considered in evaluating matrix elements. The present method is applied for the analysis of a coaxial-fed microstrip antenna. When the present results are compared with the previous results in order to check the validity of the present method, fairly good agreements between them are observed.

We have proposed a model of a thermal voltage converter(TVC) using the trans-impedance of lossy transmission line and developed a calculation program for ac-dc transfer difference of the TVC. The proposed TVC consists of a thermo-element(f) and a range resistor wire connected in series at the center of coaxial cylinder. The range resistor wire is used to extend the measurement range of the n. The calculated ac-dc transfer differences of the proposed TVC by simulation agree well with the measured values within the uncertainties. The simulated and measured values are agreed within $1{\mu}V/V$ from 40 Hz to 10kHz, within $5{\mu}V/V$ from 20kHz to 100MHz, and within $12{\mu}V/V$ from 200kHz to 1 MHz.

In this paper, a high-power and low-loss stripline 10-way power divider is designed and fabricated fur the feed network of an S-band linear array antenna with Chebyshev current distribution which has a narrow beam width and low side lobe level(SLL) of 35 dB or more. The unit cell of the power divider is based on a T-junction power divider and the whole divider is comprised of the cascaded unit cells. The multi-stage impedance transformer and modified ring hybrid are used in designing the power divider for performance improvement. And the reflection loss and insertion loss are improved by modifying a connector structure for a coaxial-to-stripline transition.
