In this paper, design and fabrication for inset fed microstrip patch antennas applied to the $3{\times}3$ array CSLR and eight CSLR, respectively, to the ground plane are studied. The theoretical results are compared to the experimental results for the return loss and radiation pattern. For 'CSLR 09' antenna, the theoretical result for the resonant frequency and the return loss are 2.82 GHz and - 25.35 dB, respectively. The experimental results are obtained for a 2.885 GHz, -30.72 dB. Theoretical results for the resonant frequency and the return loss of the 'CSLR 08' antenna are 2.82 GHz, -16.77 dB, respectively, and the experimental results are obtained for a 2.885 GHz, -14.90 dB. In addition, E-plane and H-plane radiation patterns in comparison with designed and fabricated antennas are in good agreement.

In this paper, a new signal processing technique is proposed for calibrating gain, phase, delay offsets in array antenna based anti-jamming minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) global-positioning-system (GPS) receivers. The proposed technique estimates gain, phase and delay offsets across the antennas, and compensates for the offsets based on the estimates. A pilot signal with good correlation characteristics is used for accurate estimation of the gain, phase and delay offsets. Based on the cross-correlation, the delay offset is first estimated and then gain/phase offsets are estimated. For fine delay offset estimation and compensation, an interpolation technique is used, and specifically, the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) is employed for the interpolation technique to reduce the computational complexity. The proposed technique is verified through computer simulation using MATLAB. According to the simulation results, the proposed technique can reduce the gain, phaes and delay offset to 0.01 dB, 0.05 degree, and 0.5 ns, respectively.

The 16-port feed waveguide array with inductive walls analyzed by Galerkin's method of moments are proposed for the DBS reception system mounted on vehicle. First of all, in order to verify the validity of electromagnetic analysis and design for a $\pi$-junction feed waveguide, it is designed and fabricated at DBS band. The measurement results of a $\pi$-junction feed waveguide agree well with the theoretical ones. Based on this design method, an array design for WR-90 standard waveguide is conducted. Since the width of a $\pi$-junction feed WR-90 standard waveguide is larger than a guided wave length in an array design, the difference of amplitude and phase of 8-port array are calculated 2.3 dB and 62 degrees, respectively. The bandwidth with return loss of -20 dB below is about 220 MHz and it doesn't satisfy DBS band. To solve this problem, we propose a novel design that the width of a $\pi$-junction feed waveguide equals to a guided wave length. By the proposed novel design for 8-port feed waveguide array, the difference of amplitude and phase are decreased 1 dB and 13 degrees, respectively. The broad bandwidth of 700 MHz is also realized. The size of 16-port waveguide away compared with WR-90 array is reduced about 10 cm. The measured antenna gain for the fabricated 16-port feed waveguide array is observed 24 dBi above at DBS band.

A novel method of adaptive beam forming is presented in this paper. The proposed technique provides for a suboptimal beam pattern that increases the Signal to Noise/Interference Ratio (SNR/SIR), thus, eventually increases the capacity of the communication channel, under an assumption that the desired signal is dominant compared to each component of interferences at the receiver, which is precoditionally achieved in Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) mobile communications by the chip correlator. The main advantages of the new technique are:(1)The procedure requires neither reference signals nor training period, (2)The signal interchoerency does not affect the performance or complexity of the entire procedure, (3)The number of antennas does not have to be greater than that of the signals of distinct arrival angles, (4)The entire procedure is iterative such that a new suboptimal beam pattern be generated upon the arrival of each new data of which the arrival angle keeps changing due tot he mobility of the signal source, (5)The total amount of computation is tremendously reduced compared to that of most conventional beam forming techniques such that the suboptimal beam pattern be produced at vevery snapshot on a real-time basis. The total computational load for generating a new set of weitht including the update of an N-by-N(N is the number of antenna elements) autocovariance matrix is $0(3N^2 + 12N)$. It can further be reduced down to O(11N) by approximating the matrix with the instantaneous signal vector.

본 논문에서는 주파수 영역 배열안테나의 계산량을 감소시키기 위한 센서링 부분적응 알고리듬을 제안한다. 제안한 알고리듬은 입력신호를 주파수 영역으로 변환한 후 CFAR(constant false alarm rate) 검파기법을 이용하여 간섭신호가 존재하는 주파수 대역을 찾아내고 이에 해당하는 가중치에 대해서만 적응 신호처리를 수행한다. 이때 CFAR 검파기의 오경보율은 출력신호의 전력 변화량을 이용하여 환경에 맞게 적응적으로 변화시켜서 최적 값으로 설정한다.

This paper describes a design for microstrip EMC cross dipole array antenna with circular polarization. To realize the wide bandwidth and circular polarization, the electromagnetic-coupled cross dipole is used. To obtain the uniform aperture illumination, offset technique for array is adopted. In 20-element array design, the calculated axial ratio and gain are about 0.1 dB and 9.9 dBi at 12GHz, respectively. The frequency characteristics of a fabricated 20-element array antenna are measured. The calculated results agree well with the measured ones.

Velocity estimation is one of important issues for efficient system management in mobile cellular systems. In this paper, a modified velocity estimation scheme which works in Adaptive Antenna System (AAS) is proposed. The proposed scheme estimates user velocity based on moving distance information and sojourn time information. From numerical results, it is shown that the proposed scheme can estimate user velocity accurately with low cost.
