A simplified design procedure for quasi-Yagi antenna arrays using an ultra-wideband balun is presented. The proposed antenna design procedure is based on the simple impedance matching among antenna components: i.e., balun, feed, and antenna This new broadband and high gain antenna array is possible due to the ultra-wideband performance of the balun. As design examples, wideband $1\times4$ and $1\times8$ quasi-Yagi antenna arrays are successfully designed and implemented in Ku-band with frequency bandwidths of about 50 % and antenna gains of 9$\sim$10 dBi and 11$\sim$12 dBi, respectively. And the simulated and measured results demonstrate wide bandwidths and good radiation properties. These antenna arrays can be applied to various phased-array and spatial power combining systems.

The paper deals with comparative study for characteristics of approximation of design space according to various approximate models and sensitivity analysis using orthogonal array experiments in structure design of active type DSF which was developed for float-over installation of offshore plant. This study aims to propose the orthogonal array experiments based design methodology which is able to efficiently explore an optimum design case and to generate the accurate approximate model. Thickness sizes of main structure member were applied to the design factors, and output responses were considered structure weight and strength performances. Quantitative effects on the output responses for each design factor were evaluated using the orthogonal array experiment. Best design case was also identified to improve the structure design with weight minimization. From the orthogonal array experiment results, various approximate models such as response surface model, Kriging model, Chebyshev orthogonal polynomial model, and radial basis function based neural network model were generated. The experiment results from orthogonal array method were validated by the approximate modeling results. It was found that the radial basis function based neural network model among the approximate models was able to approximate the design space of the active type DSF with the highest accuracy.

X-Band taper slot-typed active phased array antenna is studied and designed. Through the simulated and measured performances, it is confirmed that both of active reflection coefficient and active radiation pattern of the designed phased array antenna are agreed well with those of the prototype manufactured one. From this study, the proposed antenna structure is matched to the design target of characteristics of antenna's broadband beam.

밀리미터 대역에서 고출력 신호를 장거리로 전송하기 위해서는 안테나 이득을 증가시켜야 한다. 이를 위해 사용되는 방법 중 하나가 금속 개구면 격자배열을 구조를 이용하여 안테나를 설계하는 것이다. 이러한 반사배열 안테나는 격자구조의 기하학적 패턴이 개구효율에 큰 영향을 미친다. 본 논문에서는 개구효율을 향상시키기 위한 최적의 기하학적 패턴을 찾기 위한 방법으로 유전알고리즘 기법을 제안한다. 유전 알고리즘 기법을 적용한 모의실험 결과는 제안한 방법이 개구효율을 향상시키는데 도움이 된다는 것을 보여주었다.

In this paper, the design and fabrication of slot array in the broad wall of the waveguide for Ka-band monopulse radar are discussed. The aperture distributions are designed for the desired antenna gain, beamwidth and Side-lobe Level(SLL), and then slot parameters, such as lengths and offsets, are obtained for corresponding to each slot admittance in the equivalent circuit by using Elliot's array synthesis procedure. MWS-CST simulation shows the return loss below -10 dB, antenna gain above 32 dBi, 3 dB beamwidth of 3.7 degree and SLL of -20 dB. In order to demonstrate the expected results, the designed antenna is fabricated and measured.

In the mobile antenna systems for satellite multimedia communications, the active way antenna having a low sidelobe antenna pattern is described in this paper. This designed and fabricated array antenna is satisfied with international beam pattern regulation on moving states. The subarray of the proposed mobile antenna system is arranged with a stair-planar structure and non-periodic array spacing. This subarray is designed with three-layered microstrip patch as both receiving and transmitting radiator of which are improved with antenna gain and bandwidth. Also, the optimum subarray spacing is designed to make the lowest sidelobe pattern by genetic algorithm. In addition, the characteristics of a GA-perturbed array are investigated from simulated and measured beam pattern results.

In this paper, a study on optimization of three dimensional multi-layered metallic disk array structure(MDAS) excited by circular waveguides was performed to shape efficient flat-topped element patterns(FTEP) of ${\pm}$20$^{\circ}$ beam width. Each radiating element of the MDAS is composed of input, transition and radiation circular waveguides and finite metal disks stacked on radiation circular waveguide. It has an array structure of a hexagonal lattice appropriate for the conical beam scanning. The analytic algorithm for the MDAS was proposed and the code was also programmed using it. Optimal design parameters of the MDAS were determined through the optimal simulation process to obtain ${\pm}$20$^{\circ}$ FTEP. Also, bandwidth characteristics for FTEP and reflection coefficients of the MDAS were investigated and, as the results, it was shown that the MDAS could shape good FTEPs of ${\pm}$20$^{\circ}$ beam width in main planes at least within a 5.6 % frequency band.
