In this paper, electrically small square loop antenna with SRR (Split Ring Resonator) cover structure is built and tested. The proposed antenna has very small size, ka = 0.34 by Chu limit. The experimental result shows that the resonant frequency and impedance bandwidth($VSWR{\leq}2$) are 906MHz and 5.8MHz (901.7 - 907.5MHz), respectively. The proposed antenna is matched and designed by equivalent circuit model. The proposed antenna is fabricated simple structure without additional matching network and printed on a Teflon substrate without ground plane. Therefore, it has advantages of low cost, small size, and light weight and will be applied to wireless communication systems where small antennas are required.

In this paper, radiation pattern of rectangular microstrip patch antenna with anisotropy substrates and superstrate is studied by using a rigorous full-wave approach and a moment method calculation. Dyadic Green's function is derived for selected anisotropy material by constitutive relation. From these results, integral equations of electric fields are formulated. The electric field integral equations are discretized into the matrix form by applying Galerkin's moment method and then the current coefficients are obtained.. After solving the current coefficients, the far-zone electric field in spherical coordinates can be obtained by using the stationary phase method. To verify the validity of numerical result, we compare our result with existing one and get a good agreement between them. From the numerical results, the radiation patterns for variation of uniaxial superstrate thickness, anisotropy ratio of substrate and superstrate layer are presented and analyzed.

Resonant frequency in rectangular microstrip patch antenna on anisotropic substrates with airgap and superstrate are analyzed. Dyadic Green function is derived for selected anisotropic material by constitutive relation. From these results, integral equations of electric fields are formulated using Fourier transform in space region. The electric field integral equations are discretized into the matrix form by applying Galerkin\`s moment method. Sinusoidal functions are selected as basis functions because they resemble in the actual standing wave on the patch. To verify the validity of numerical result, we compare our result with existing one and get a good agreement between them. From the numerical results, the resonant frequency in the variation of air gap, patch length and anisotropy ratio are presented and analysed.

The COMS(Communication, Ocean, and Meteorological Satellite) is subjected to shock loads when the stage or fairing of a launch vehicle is separated and the satellite is separated from the launch vehicle during the launch vehicle flight. And, after the satellite is separated from the launcher, the COMS is subjected to shock loads when the solar array is deployed, Ka-Band communication antenna is deployed, and meteorological imager radiator cover is released. In order to validate the satellite safety against these shock loads on ground, shock tests were performed. In this paper, the shock tests performed in the course of the COMS development are described, and the method to assess the test result is presented with an example of Geostationary Ocean Color Imager(GOCI). In Ariane-5 launch vehicle, the clampband release shock for satellite separation is lower than the fairing or stage separation. In this paper, the extrapolation method to take into account the maximum shock load from the launch vehicle by using the satellite separation shock test result is also introduced.

In this paper, the effects of superstrate on the radiation patterns of dipole on cylindrical bianisotropic subtrates were studied. Special constitutive relations are used to describe the bianisotropic properties of a material, such that the Green's function can be formulated. Electromagnetic fields and hounds conditions in spectral region were used to find Creen's function of the spectral representation and electromagnetic fields in space region were derived through inverse Fourier transformations of fields in spectral region using asymptotic formula for far zone. Radiation characteristics of axial Hertzian dipole on superstrate leaded cylindrical bianisotropic substrates were analyzed.

In this paper, the characteristics of frequency dependent dispersion are analyzed for the phase shifters in Ku-band phased array antenna system using full-wave method, SDA(Spectral Domain Approach).The design technique of asymmetric coupled-line phase shifter with dielectric overlay is proposed. The compared results of phase responses are shown with conventional symmetric coupled-line Schiffman phase shifter. The experimental results verify the improvement of broadband characteristics by the increasing bandwidths and the decreasing phase deviations.

In this paper, a GPS antenna is designed by using metal film which can be attached on the case of battery without additional space for antenna in GPS band operation. The proposed metal film has a half-wavelength slot radiator. The slot radiator is fed by th electromagnetic field coupled from the GSM850/PCS band antenna. The proposed GPS antenna obtains about 20 MHz bandwidth(VSWR<3) which can cover entire GPS band. The antenna has an average gain of -3.8 dBi.

In this paper, the effects of superstrate on the radiation patterns of dipole on cylindrical bianisotropic substrates were studied. Special constitutive relations are used to describe the bianisotropic properties of a material, such that the Green's function can be formulated. Electromagnetic fields and boundary conditions in spectral region were used to find Green's function of the spectral representation and electromagnetic fields in space region were derived through inverse Fourier transformations of fields in spectral region using asymptotic formula for far zone. Radiation characteristics of axial Hertzian dipole on superstrate loaded cylindrical bianisotropic substrates were obtained. The effects of bianisotropic superstrate on the radiation properties of the antennas including beam scanning, directivity enhancement, dark-region illumination, and on horizon radiation, are discussed.

The radiation pattern of a rectangular-grid array antenna consisted of rectangular waveguides is represented by multiplication of its element and array factors. Calculated radiation patterns for excitation of TES110T mode inside the waveguides suffer from the blindness at a particular direction on E-plane. Numerical simulations show that the blindness can be removed by inserting dielectric plug inside the waveguides or covering dielectric sheath in front of the waveguides.

The satellite includes many release mechanisms such as solar array deployment, antenna deployment, cover to protect contamination in scientific equipment, pyro value of the propulsion subsytem, and bypass device in Li-Ion cell module. A drive the initiators is a critical to the successful mission because the initiators of release mechanism driving by the pyrotechnic circuit is operated in single short. The pyrotechnic circuit has to provide switching network for safety. A typical switching network has defect consisting of high current rating fire switch to handle switching transient current during fire the initiator. The pyrotechnic circuit is required some form of power conditioning to reduce the peak power demanded from the bus if the initiators are to be fired from the main bus. This paper design a pyrotechnic circuit synchronized to the fire-command to activate the fire switch to overcome use high current rating fire switch to handle switching transient current during fire the initiator. The pyrotechnic circuit provides a current limited widow pulse for fire current synchronized to the fire-command to insure that fire switch will only carry the current but never switch it. The current limited widow pulse for fire current can be possible to use low current rating and light mass switch in switching network. The current limit function in the pyrotechnic circuit reduces supply voltage to initiator and provides the effect of power conditioning function to reduce peak bus power. The pyrotechnic circuit to apply satellite development on geostationary orbit is verified the function by test in development model.
