Equal/unequal 4-way power divider suitable for satellite communication using SIW technology is presented in this paper. The control of positions of guiding posts provides equal or unequal power division ratios by maintaining the width of the SIW unchanged. In addition, the detailed descriptions for the proposed power divider include the general characteristics of radial waveguide, feeding part using coaxial cable, simple SIW structure, power-guiding posts, and transition for measurement. The comparison between the simulated and measured data shows a good agreement at a center frequency of 10 GHz. The measured input impedance bandwidths for equal and unequal power divisions are about 2.1 GHz and 3 GHz under the condition of less than VSWR 2:1, respectively.

In this paper, a digital closed-circuit television (CCTV) transmission system called the extended reach high definition serial digital interface (ER-SDI) is proposed to increase the transmission distance while preserving the quality using digital modulation. The current standard of HD-serial digital interface (HD-SDI) has the maximum transmission distance of 200 m. Recently, one system which transforms the digital signal to an analog signal and modulates color signal to extend the transmission distance is proposed. Another system which uses IP network is also proposed. However, the former system has a disadvantage of video quality and the latter system has high latency. The proposed ER-SDI is designed to extend the transmission distance of 518 m by adopting multilevel constellations and a channel code for a data rate of 1.485 Gbps. The maximum transmission distance of the proposed system is calculated using the specification of HD-SDI and the experiment result under coaxial cable environment.

In this paper, a novel printed meander monopole antenna is proposed for wireless USB dongle applications. Dual-wideband resonance is obtained by utilizing a printed meander monopole radiator. The proposed antenna was fabricated on a thin FR-4 substrate with a thickness of 1 mm and a dielectric constant of 4.6. The antenna is fed by a $50{\Omega}$ coaxial cable. This novel USB dongle antenna measures only $10{\times}50mm^2$. The measured results demonstrates that the antenna supports WiBro, Bluetooth/ISM, WLAN, S-DMB, and WiMAX service bands.

In this paper, to implement the electromagnetic wave environment and solve electromagnetic compatibility(EMC) problem, miniaturization of ultra-wide band log periodic dipole antenna for measurement was investigated. In addition, in oder to improve the signal-to-noise ratio in high frequency band, balun was connected to the antenna to stabilize the operation of the differential mode antenna and the single mode coaxial cable. To minimize the total size and to increase bandwidth of the antenna, a fat dipole structure was used for the resonance frequency band below 4 GHz and a general dipole shape was used for that above 4 GHz. The bandwidth of the proposed antenna was represented from 0.6 GHz to 8.0 GHz with a ratio bandwidth of 12.3 : 1. Measured peak gain varies from 5.7 dBi to 9.1 dBi, and a half power beamwidth was presented from $29.4^{\circ}$ to $100.2^{\circ}$ in operating range.

This paper summarizes the data of a monopole antenna with a sleeve structure that can be applied in various ways. Sleeve monopole antennas have broadband characteristics and are used for multi-frequency applications. The sleeve monopole antenna is composed of a vertical conductor, which is a radiator, and a sleeve having the same structure as a coaxial cable. The sleeve acts as a radiator and an open stub. The length of the sleeve should be 1/3~2/3 of the total length of the antenna. A monopole antenna having a sleeve structure is applicable to a vehicle wiper antenna. In addition, the case of applying this antenna to a broadband sleeve antenna using a loading coil, a broadband printed sleeve monopole antenna for an ISM band, a gap sleeve and a double sleeve, and a UWB planar monopole antenna using half cutting was summarized and analyzed in terms of structure and broadband.
