In this paper, the dual band circular polarization patch antenna was designed by using band rejection characteristics of CSRR structure for geostationary satellites. A quadrangular CSRR structure was etched on the ground at the rear of the patch antenna's feed to obtain band rejection characteristics in between the receiving frequency band(1525~1559MHz) and transmission band(1626.5~1660.5MHz), and the corner of the patch antenna was truncated to enable circular polarization. It was confirmed that the resonant frequency of the patch antenna differs according to the size anc location of the CSRR and cirular polarization characteristics with simulation and measurement results. Measurement results shows the gain of about 0.2dB and 1.5dB in the TX and RX band.

An L-band (1435-MHz~1535MHz) omnidirectional circular polarized wave antenna is designed and evaluated for transmitting/receiving of vehicle data. Conventioanl linear polarized wave antenna can not receive clearly all of the vehicle data which come from the wide driving test range on account of distortion. To vercome this problem, an omnidirectional circular polarized wave antenna is reuaried an designed. For the design, first of all, the charcteristics, design principle and theoretical background of circular polarized wav ewith a little signal loss ahve been reviewed. The characteristics of th edesigned antenna are analyzed wave with a little signal loss have been reviewed. The characteristics of the designed antenna is increased over 5dB comparing to that of linear polarized wave. Our results also demonstrate that the strength of vehicle data is flat enough over the full test range using this new antenna.

There are many types of circularly polarized(CP) microstrip antenna elements, which are used as a good unit radiator. Since an advantage of CP antenna is no strict alignment requirements between Rx and Tx system, the printed antennas with circular polarization are very often used in numerous satellite and mobile radio systems. In order to realize the broad bandwidth of 3 dB axial ratio and impedance of CP microstrip antenna, complex feed structure and tri-plate patch element have been researched. This paper describes a design of wideband microstrip cross slot array antennas with circular polarization. The proposed antenna is composed of an open-ended microstrip feed line as a feeder and a cross slot as a radiator for circular polarization. To realize the wide bandwidth, tri-plate structure are considered and cross slot is electromagnetically coupled with feed line. Optimum parameters of 1-element cross slot antenna are analyzed and designed by method of moments. These parameters are also applied to may antennas design considered the mutual coupling between radiating elements. Right hand circular polarization(RHCP) and left hand circular polarization(LHCP) of the proposed antenna are easily controlled by asymmetrical cross slot structure and slot position. In 1-element and 15-element cross slot array antenna, the good axial ratio of 1 dB below and the broad bandwidth characteristics of antenna are obtained.

This paper presents reflection symmetry of polarimetric SAR over the Amazon rainforest in terms of correlation coefficients between the pairs of HH- and HV-pol and VV- and VH-pol data by ALOS PALSAR. The reflection symmetry is defined as a non-zero correlation between HH- and HV-pol and VV- and VH-pol over natural distributed targets, and is a fundamental assumption for cross-talk calibration coefficient computation and for three-component decomposition for polarimetric SAR data. The Amazon rainforest is especially one of the common global reference sites for the reflection symmetry. The correlation coefficients for the pairs of reflection symmetry obtained in this study range from 0.018 to 0.097. The results imply that there exists a non-negligible dependency between co-pol and cross-pol in the distributed natural targets, and consequently the non-zero correlation must be considered as a potential contribution to errors of spaceborne SAR polarimetry to some extent.

In this paper, we developed a simulator which can generate the polarization waves for the indoor wireless communications based on three dimensional ray tracing technique and verified the simulation results comparing with the measured data in indoor wireless propagation environments. Using the developed simulator, we analyzed the channel characteristic and polarization diversity reception characteristic for the vertical, horizontal and circularly polarized waves. From the analysis results, in the case of using circularly polarized wave it can be clearly seen that the multipath fading is markedly reduced compared to the vertical and horizontal polarized waves due to the reception characteristic of removing the odd time reflected waves.

This article proposed polarization selective antenna for UHF RFID system. The proposed antenna is consist of microstrip patch antenna with dual feeding and two SPDT switches and a SP4T switch and 3dB hybrid coupler. Through control of voltage of switches, the proposed reader antenna can select horizontally linear polarization, vertically linear polarization, left-hand circular polarization (LHCP) and right hand circular polarization (RHCP).

In this paper, a design for the 900MHz bandwidth RFID reader antenna with circular polarization is proposed and experimentally investigated. The 900MHz bandwidth RFID reader antenna is proposed as a simple radiator with loading capacitor to generate LHCP(Left Hand Circular Polarization). Also, the design and fabrication of antenna has the returnloss of -32.28dB at the center frequency of 1010MHz and Bandwidth of 12.5% at 905Hz~1030MHz. Proposed LHCP antenna of maximum gain is 6dBi and satisfy axial ratio based on 2. From the measured result, axial ratios based on 2 are observed at the operating frequencies. The proposed antenna is suitable for RFID applications in wireless communications.

The new periodic array structure or frequency selective surface with polarizers characteristic is proposed. The present structure is constructed with two sheets or FSS material, spaced about one-eight wavelength apart, the dipole element orientations of the two sheets being almost perpendicular to each other. The methods of the spectral domain immittance and MoM are used to analyze electromagnetic scattering from this periodic array structure. To confirm the validity of the polrizer's functions or the new periodic array structure, frequency selective surfaces are fabricated, calculated values for the frequency response of the reflection and transmission loss are compared with measured values. Good correspondence has been observed between them. Good axial ratio has been also observed to be achieved in the proposed structure.

In this paper, a circular microstrip patch antenna for switchable polarization is presented. For the switchable polarization, pairs of tuning stubs and two PIN diodes are utilized. By independently setting the PIN diodes on or off, the antenna produces either linear polarization or circular polarization. From the results, the -10 dB impedance bandwidths of 57.0 MHz($2.4\%$) and 50.0 MHz($2.1\%$) when operated in the linear polarization, and the 3 dB axial ratio bandwidth of $1.3\%$ with minimum of 0.2 and 0.9 dB in the circular polarization have been observed.
