In this paper, a planar equi-phase power divider is proposed using fixed phase shifters. As the integrability of a phased array antenna increases for accurate beam steering, a conventional method to excite equi-phase signals to all element antennas, extending the feedline, has spatial limitations. Therefore, the planar equi-phase power divider is designed using a defected ground structure with a planar phase shift function without intentional feedline extension. The defected ground structure has been considered for a low insertion loss and a controllable phase shift, whereas the power divider has been designed and implemented with a port-to-port isolation and a planar configuration.

지중송전라인에서 전압등급의 상승은 선로손실을 줄이면서 밀집된 전력수요에 대응하거나 특별히 고전압 수요를 맞추기 위한 것으로 이것은 XLPE Cable의 제조기술이 향상되면서 지속적으로 진행되어온 초고압송전계통의 일반적 추세이다. 이러한 경향으로 해외에서는 케이블 도체의 송전용량을 증대시킬 수 있는 방법으로 케이블 도체에 에나멜 코팅을 하여 집합을 한다. 그러므로써 기존 케이블에서 발생되는 표피현상 및 근접효과에 의한 AC 저항 요소를 줄여 요구하는 전류용량을 기존 비소선절연 케이블에 비해 더 많이 송전할 수 있다. 하지만, 소선절연 케이블이 전류 용량을 증대 시킬 수 있는 장점은 있으나 접속재의 경우 도체의 에나멜 코팅을 제거해야 하는 문제점이 있다. 당사는 에나멜 코팅을 제거하는 방법을 개발 완료함으로써 본 접속재의 개발을 앞당길 수 있었다. 당사는 쿠웨이트 400kV MEW/C/3931 Project에 400kV XLPE 1C${\times}$2500SQ 소선절연 초고압송전라인을 적용하였는데 본고에서는 여기에 적용된 400kV XLPE 1C${\times}$25000SQ 소전절연 케이블 부속재의 신뢰성을 높이기 위한 설계방법, 시험 및 시공에 대하여 요약하였다.

In this paper, a new hairpin type strip-line BPF(Band Pass Filter) improving the suppression performance of unwanted frequency signal is studied. A modified hairpin filter is designed by classical hairpin filter design methodology and is realized by newly placing structure of designed filter. And a newly formed coupled-line effects between modified bilateral symmetry structures make the transmission zeros. Each transmission zeros can shift its frequency to wanted frequency by tuning a certain part of filter. To investigate the validity of this novel technique, an order-5 Chebyshev BPF centered at 9.2 GHz with a 15 % FBW(fractional bandwidth) were used. According to design and measurement results, a good performance of insertion loss of 0.8 dB and unwanted signal suppression of maximum 50 dB is achieved at full input/output ports.

In this paper, UHF band RFID reader antenna using filbert curve fractal structure and adding the partially grounded plane at the bottom of antenna, which has a resonant frequency at 910MHz, is proposed. Input impedance of antenna is matched with the feed line of 50ohm by varying the length and width of line segment making up the antenna, and by moving the position of via hole. The gain and directivity of antenna is enhanced as varying the dimension of the partially grounded plane and adding the line segment. The size of fabricated antenna is $68mm\times68mm$. The impedance band width(VSWR<2) is $882\sim942MHz$. The return loss and the gain of fabricated antenna are -18.2dB, 5.3dBi at 910MHz.

A mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) is one consisting of a set of mobile hosts capable of communicating with each other without the assistance of base stations. It is necessary to use bandwidth effectively because MANET has limited bandwidth. In this paper, we propose SMGS (source based multiple gateway selection routing protocol). In SMGS, each node estimates its expected life time (ELT) and if its ELT is larger than that of current gateway it becomes a candidate node. When a source node establishes a path, in each grid the candidate node will take the route request and be a gateway node for the each source node. The node that is expected to stay the longest time in the grid is selected so that we can reduce frequent gateway handoff, packet loss, and handoff delay.

In this paper, we propose a novel power factor compensation system using slidac. The proposed power factor compensation system compensates the power factor by adjusting the output voltage of the slidac. In the conventional power factor compensation system using capacitor bank method, the power factor compensation error occurs depending on the load condition due to the limitation of the compensation capacitor capacity. However, the proposed system can finely change slidac output voltage applied to the capacitor, therefore power factor can be compensated up to 100% without error. We compare the proposed system with the conventional system, and confirm that the proposed system has excellent power factor compensation performance through simulations and experiments. If the proposed power factor compensation system is applied to an industrial field, a power factor compensation performance can be maximized. As a result, it is possible to reduce of electricity prices, reduce of line loss, increase of load capacity, ensure the transmission margin capacity, and reduce the amount of power generation.

One of the most serious problems in KEPCO power system is the load centralization in the capital area. The load capacity in the capital area is almost 40% of the total load. However, the generation capacity in this area is just 16% of the total generation. The inequality, between the power demand and supply, in this area needs the power transmission from other regions. The simplest method to solve the problem is the installation of power plants or the addition of high-capacity transmission line in the metropolitan area. However, because of the concentration of human and material resources, there is a difficulty in the installation of the generation and transformer facility. As a result, instead of the installation of large scale facilities, the approach to maximize the application of existing facilities is required. In this research, we will develop a scheme with an HVDC installation for enhancing power transfer capability by utilizing the existing transmission lines.

outphasing class-E power amplifier using composite right/left-handed transmission lines(CRLH-TL) is proposed at 2.4 GHz. The power combiner including CRLH-TL is designed to suppress the second and third harmonics to increase linearity and the output problem of the conventional outphasing amplifier is also solved by the proposed outphasing amplifier. So the P AE is improved. The measured maximum output power at the fundamental frequency shows 31.8 dBm, whereas the PAE shows 50 % with 14 dBm input power excited. The IMD3 is improved by 5 dB compared to that of conventional outphasing amplifier.

In this paper, microstrip low pass filter using transmission line with the modified DCRLH structure is designed and fabricated to be removed a spurious resonant mode, and a deep attenuation in stop band. The low pass filter is composed of shunt open-stub to get a deep attenuation and series short-stub to eliminate the spurious harmonics in stop band. In this way, the spurious harmonics occurring on the higher order frequency are suppressed and the filter performance is improved. Insertion loss and VSWR of the fabricated microstrip low pass filter in the passband from DC to 1.5 GHz is 1.26 dB and 1.65, and attenuation on the stopband from 1.84 GHz to 2.18 GHz is less than -100 dB. And also this filter has a good performance for 20 watt power test.
