We propose a novel feed network for a $2{\times}2$ array antenna to form a sectoral conical beam. The proposed feed network, which is a symmetrical structure, consists of four $90^{\circ}$ hybrids, a crossover, and four $90^{\circ}$ delay lines. To verify the performance of the feed network a $2{\times}2$ array antenna and the feed network are fabricated on a microstrip structure, and the radiation patterns are measured at the center frequency of 2.57 GHz. The maximum radiation is measured at the $45^{\circ}$ elevation angle and at the $45^{\circ}$, $135^{\circ}$, $225^{\circ}$, and $315^{\circ}$ azimuth angles depending on the choice of the input port of the feed network.

In this paper, we studied on-board antenna(primary link/secondary link/satellite link) used in UAV Data-link system. As a result, it is ideal to configure the Data-link as a triple link to secure the flight stability of the UAV, but the communication link should be configured according to the operating platform. As a result of overseas R&D trend analysis, the on-board Data-link antenna is installed and operated in a location where it is easy to secure LOS. The primary link consists of a directional antenna for basic operation and an omni-directional antenna for emergency operation. The secondary link uses a monopole/dipole antenna in the UHF/C band. Satellite link has been developed to apply phased array antenna to improve UAV operability.

In this paper, a novel Class-E power amplifier using metamaterials has been realized with one RF LDMOS diffusion metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor. The CRLH structure can lead to metamaterial transmission line with the Class-E power amplifier tuning capability. The CRLH TL is achieved by the frequency offset and the nonlinear phase slope of the CRLH TL for the matching network of the power amplifier. Also, the proposed power amplifier has been realized by using the CRLH structure in the output matching network for better efficiency. Operating frequencies are chosen at 13.56 MHz in this work. The measured results show that the output power of 39.83 dBm and the gain of 11.83dB was obtained. At this point, we have obtained the power-added efficiency (PAE) of 73 % at operation frequency.

One-dimensional shear wave velocity structure of North Korea is constrained using short (2-sec) to long period (30-sec) Rayleigh waves generated from four seismic events in China. Rayleigh waves are well recorded at the five broadband seismic stations (BRD, SNU, CHNB, YKB, KSA) which are located near to the border between North and South Korea. Group velocities of fundamental-mode Rayleigh waves are estimated with the Multiple Filter Analysis and refined by using the Phase Matched Filter. Average group velocity dispersion curve ranging from 2.9 to 3.2 km/s, is inverted to constrain the shear wave velocity structures. Relatively low group velocity dispersion curves along the path between the events to BRD at period from 4 to 6 seconds may correspond to the sedimentary sequence of the West Korea Bay Basin (WKBB) in the Yellow Sea. The low velocity zone in deep layers (14-20 km) may be related to the deep sedimentary structure in Pyongnam basin. The fast shear wave velocity structure from the surface to the depth of 14 km is consistent with the existence of metamorphic rocks and igneous bodies in Nangrim massif and Pyongnam basin.

We try to analyse the localization phenomenon of a lightwave in random media by means of considering the solution of the propagation equation on a transmission line in which the propagation constants are randomly distributed. Lightwave localization is generated at the turning point where the solution is changed suddenly from an increase to a decrease. First, in order to investigate the changing process of the solution, we have derived the approximated one-dimensional Schrodinger equation from the two-dimensional wave equation by using the Brags condition. Considering the many types of solutions of the wave equation, we have investigated the conditions that allow the solutions to exist. Also, we have investigated the relationships between the localization of the solution and the variation of the propagation constant. In case of the exponential solution, we know that the permittivity $\varepsilon$=(0,0$\varepsilon$$_{0}$) is a very important parameter to influence the phase of the lightwave and to generate the localization.

In this paper, a novel design concept of frequency doubler using feedforward technique and DGS microstrip line is proposed. The feedforward loop plays a role of fundamental frequency suppression and DGS microstrip line suppresses over the 3rd order harmonic components. By using this new concept, the high suppression for the undesired signals could be achieved easily. The proposed technique is experimentally demonstrated in 1.87 GHz-to-3.74 GHz frequency doubler. The output power of -3 dBm at the frequency of 3.74 GHz(2f$\_$0/) is measured with 42.9 dB suppression of the fundamental frequency signal(f$\_$0/), 20.2 dB suppression of the 3rd harmonic signal(3f$\_$0/) and B9.7 dB suppression of the 4th harmonic signal(4f$\_$0/). The conversion loss of -2.34 dB ∼ -5.8 dB at the bandwidth of 100 MHz, the phase noise of -97.51 dB/Hz(＠10 kHz) were measured.

The error networks due to the measuring systems and the test fixture must be previously calibrated in order to characterize the microwave devices. In this paper, it is presented a new method to characterize the error networks in which only two different microstrip lines are used for the calibration. Once each length of two calibrat- ing microstrip lines is accurately defined, the calibrated data can be easily obtained without acknowledgement for the propagation constant. The end effect is not considered when fabricated the microstrip lines used to calibration. The ATF13736 GaAs MESFET is characterized by means of the calibrating procedure with this method. The range of measuring frequency is 2 to 18 GHz, and the bias voltage and current are $V_{DS}$ =2.5V, $I_{DS}$ =20mA, respectively. Compared the calibrated data with data sheet, it is showed that the magnitude is nearly agreed with each other and the phase is deviated by 0.1 to 12 degrees in lower frequencies.

This study shows the defect detection and sizing capability of ultrasonic guided waves in the nondestructive inspection of heat exchanger and steam generator tubing. Phase and group velocity dispersion curves for the longitudinal and flexural modes of a sample Inconel tube were presented for the theoretical analysis. EDM(Electric Discharge Machining) wears in tubing under a tube support plate and circumferential laser notches in tubing were detected by an axisymmetric and a non-axisymmetric transducer set up, respectively. EDM wears were detected with L(0, 2), L(0, 3) and L(0, 4) modes and among them L(0, 4) mode was found to be the most sensitive. It was also found that the flexural modes around L(0, 1) mode could be used for the detection and sizing of laser notches in the tubing.

This paper represents impedance calculation of the distance relay using PSCAD/EMTDC software for transmission line involving the UPFC(Unified Power Flow Controller)device, which is the most vigorous component of FACTS. The presence of the UPFC significantly affects the line parameters of transmission system, which are also influenced by the distance relay setting. Moreover, depending on the UPFC location and its parameters, zones of setting the distance relay will be changed. The presence of the UPFC in the fault loop affects both voltage and current seen by relay. Therefore, the distance relay should be taken into account the variable injected voltage of the UPFC.
