In this paper, TX/RX dual operation microstrip single antenna for satellite communication is designed, analyzed, fabricated and measured. TX/RX frequency ranges are 14.0∼l4.5 GHz, 11.7∼12.75 GHz in respectively and vertical and horizontal polarizations are used for TX and RX. This antenna uses microstrip direct feeding for RX and aperture coupled strip-line feeding for TX and accommodates stacked elements for a high directivity and wide impedance bandwidth. In an analysis of single element, FDTD and MOM was compared and FDTD analysis was more accurate because of the consideration of finite structure and imperfect two ground planes. The proposed structure facilitates generally to an extension of two dimensional array and lower an unwanted radiation by strip-line feed in TX. TX/RX 8${\times}$4 array has a return loss below -10 dB, -14 dB in TX, RX respectively and a gain ranging from 19.1∼20.7 dB in TX, 21.2∼21.8 dB in RX which has a radiation efficiency of 43∼5l %, 52∼57 %.

This paper described a design for microstrip antenna with EMC cross dipole for circular polarization. To realize the wide bandwidth and circular polarization, the elertromagnetic-coupled cross dipole are used. The calculated axial ratio is about 0.1 dB in the main bean direction at 12 GHz and the circular polarization is realized.

This paper presents a design methodology of bandpass filter by using defect modes in photonic bandgap (PBG) structures. PBG structures are realized with alternating section of microstrip line arranged in a periodical manner. A passband is created within the stopband of PBG structures with defect modes, which can be generated by changing the period of certain part of PBG structure. We also extract a simple equivalent circuit of a bandstop filter by using several LC sections.

In this paper, we report on a microstrip line voltage controlled tunable bandpass filter. We used the characteristic the relative dielectric constant of thin film ferroelectrics depends on the applied dr voltage. we designed using Au/BSTO/MgO/Au structure. We cascaded many resonators for large furling range sustaining 1 GHz renter frequency, narrow band, low IL ($\leq$4 dB). We could design the BPF of which center frequency is 16 GHz, 1.9 GHz tuning range, the narrow bandwidth within 800 MHz, low insertion loss less than 3 dB by adjusting the gap of 3 cascaded resonators.

In this paper, a novel voltage controlled oscillator(VCO) using CSRR loaded microstrip line for X-band RADAR is proposed. Using the microstrip line loaded CSRR inserted between the oscillator and buffer to the filter, the harmonic suppression has been improved. The measured results of the fabricated oscillator shows that its oscillation frequencies are from 9.28 to 9.39GHz according to the tuning voltage 0~10V, its output power level are about 16.6dBm at 9.35GHz. Compared with VCO using the conventional VCO, VCO using CSRR loaded microstirp, the harmonic suppression characteristic has been improved in 10.4dB

In this paper, we propose that three uniform coplanar waveguides(CPWs), such as a conventional, finite grounded(FG), and grounded(G) CPWs, can be coupled with a $TE_{01{\delta}}$ mode dielectric resonator(DR) for a parallel resonant characteristic as a microstrip line coupled with the DR. Coupling characteristics have been investigated by placing the DR on a dielectric support above the CPWs and by moving the DR away from the center of a slot of the CPWs to the ground plane. FEM simulation(HFSS) results in terms of S-parameters agree well with measurement results. Finally, unloaded Q values of the DR coupled with the three uniform CPWs are compared with those of the DR coupled with a microstrip line. The comparison shows that the DR coupled with the three CPWs has higher unloaded Qs than that coupled with a microstrip line and that the GCPW case has the highest unloaded Qs.

In this paper, we designed and fabricated the lowpass filter with the wide stopband characteristics using microp- strip line. Adding the $\lambda_g/4$ open stub at the input and output ports, we developed the L-C ladder type lowpass filter using the open stub which has wide stopband characteristics. In order to reduce the entire size qf this filter, the high impedance microstrip lines were made with the meander structure. The lowpass filter was fabricated with the cutoff frequency 2.3 GHz and its measured frequency responses agree well with the simulation results.

We present the derivation of the loci of the reflection coefficient of a loaded transmission line on the Smith chart as the length of the transmission line is varied. The results show that the loci constitute a circle when the characteristic impedance of the transmission line differs from the normalizing one, whose center and radius are determined by the impedances of the load and the transmission line. The results can be used in the matching circuit design using microstriplines when line width and length should be compromised.

본 논문은 IMT-2000 기지국용 이중편파 ASSAP(Air-Strip-Air-Patch)형 마이크로스트립 안테나를 설계하였다. 복사소자로는 급전선과 복사부와의 고립도가 좋은 개구 결합형 패치를 이용하였다. $\pm$45$^{\circ}$직교 슬롯을 이용하여 이중편파를 발생시키고 급전선으로는 광대역화를 위한 에어 스트립라인을 이용하였으며 안테나의 복사특성을 만족하기 위해 패치의 크기와 접지면의 크기를 조정하여 Ensemble로 시뮬레이션 하였다. 그 결과 설계 제작한 안테나는 두 개의 포트 모두 전대역에 걸쳐 1.5:1 이하의 VSWR과 -25dB이하의 격리 특성, 그리고 65$^{\circ}$$\pm$ 7$^{\circ}$의 수평범폭을 갖는다.

In this paper, a single-feed equilateral-triangular microstrip antenna with truncated corners is used for achieving diverse radiation polarization. The proposed antenna is excited by a microstrip line, which is place parallel to an oblique side of the equilateral-triangular patch. Depending on whether the three identically-sized comers of the triangular patch are cut or not, the equilateral-triangular microstrip antenna shows linear polarization(LP) or left-hand circular polarization(LHCP) or Tight-hand circular polarization(RHCP). Based on the equilateral-triangular microstrip antenna with truncated corners, a novel reconfigurable microstrip antenna with switchable polarization sense is also proposed. The proposed reconfigurable antenna has a simple structure, consisting of a corner-truncated triangular patch, a small triangular conductor, and a microstrip line. Using a biased PIN diode between the patch and the small triangular conductor, it can produce LP or RHCP according to bias voltages. From the measured results, low cross polarization level when operated in the linear state and good axial ratio in the circular state are observed.
