Recently, active research on the Arctic Ocean has been conducted due to the influence of global warming and new Arctic ship route. Although previous studies already calculated quantitative extent of sea ice using passive microwave radiometers, melting at the edge of sea ice and surface roughness were hardly considered due to low spatial resolution. Since Sentienl-1A/B data in Extended Wide (EW) mode are being distributed as free of charge and bulk data for Arctic sea can be generated during a short period, the entire Arctic sea ice data can be covered in high spatial resolution by mosaicking bulk data. However, Sentinel-1A/B data in EW mode, especially in HV polarization, needs significant radiometric correction for further classification. Thus, in this study, we developed algorithms that can correct thermal noise and scalloping effects, and confirmed that Arctic sea ice and open-water were well classified using the corrected dual-polarization SAR data.

This paper presents the characteristics of electromagnetic field uniformity in a reverberation chamber that can be used alternatively for the analysis, test and evaluation of electromagnetic interference and immunity. The dual-band diffuser, which can be used at two different frequency bands in a reverberation chamber, is applied, and it is made of two different single-band Schroeder's Quadratic Residue Diffusers. The FDTD method is used to analyze the field characteristics. Compared with single-band diffuser, the dual-band diffuser shows the improvement in not only expansion of test frequency band but also in characteristics of the field uniformity, polarity, power efficiency, and tolerance. Therefore, the reverberation chamber with the dual-band diffuser is a better facility, for the analysis and measurement of electromagnetic interference and immunity, than the reverberation chamber with a single-band diffuser.

We propose a novel single-feed triangular patch antenna with bar-type slots for dual-band circular polarization operation. And also propose a H-type slotted triangular patch antenna to enhance the ratio of the resonance frequencies. 3 cases of desist examples with bar-type slots were investigated and also 4 cases of H-slotted antennas were investigated to meet the dual-band requirement for GPS(Global Positioning System) and DMB(Digital Multimedia Broadcasting). One suitable design example was implemented and measured. Simulation results of the design example for GPS and DMB system show that axial ratio and maximum gain are 3.80 dB, 8.85 dBi for low-band at 1.575 GHz and 2.02 dB, 8.60 dBi for high-band at 2.642 GHz, respectively. Measured results of the implemented antenna show that $S_{11}$ is -12.43 dB for low-band at 1.575 GHz and less than -18.75 dB for high-band, respectively.

In this paper we proposed a novel dual-band compact folded patch antenna with the same linear polarizations and high isolation characteristic between the two frequency range. The antenna is loaded with a high permittivity dielectric material in order to reduce the antenna size and open circuit stubs are used in order to broaden the bandwidth. The fractional bandwidths of the optimized antenna with demensions 4 mm${\times}$3 mm${\times}$5 mm are 3.0 % at 5.6 GHz band and 2.8 % at 5.8 GHz band, respectively. The isolation characteristic between the two ports is less than -26 dB within the operating frequency range.

In this paper, we considered a design method for a microstrip patch antenna fed through two radiating edges by two feeding microstrip lines. Two feedlines are made to have a phase difference of 180 degree with each other in order to reduce cross-polarization level radiated from the antenna. The operation principle and design procedure for the considered antenna are explained using equivalent circuits. In order to check the validity of this study, the results for reflection coefficients of the antenna obtained by the proposed equivalent circuit method and the simulation using commercial antenna design tool are compared with each other.

본 연구의 목적은 이중편파 레이더 강우자료와 현재 실무에서 널이 이용되고 있는 레이더 강우보정 기법 적용에 따른 격자기반 분포형 강우-유출 모형인 KIMSTORM (KIneMatic wave STOrm Runoff Model)을 이용하여 유출해석을 수행하여 보정된 레이더 강우자료를 적용한 분포형 수문모형의 효율성을 검토하는데 있다. 남강댐 유역($2,293km^2$)을 대상으로 2014년 8월 태풍 이벤트(나크리), 2016년 10월 태풍 이벤트(차바)에 대하여 비슬산 레이더 강우자료를 사용하였다. 강우자료의 보정은 21개 지점 강우와 레이더 강우를 이용하여 조건부 합성 보정기법을 이용하였으며, 누적 강우량 그리고 면적 강우량 모두 관측치를 잘 재현함을 확인 할 수 있었다. $R^2$(coefficient of determination), ME (model efficiency), VCI (volume conservation index)를 이용하여 적용성을 평가하였다. 2016년 태풍 차바 이벤트에서의 유출 모형의 보정결과 조건부 합성 보정기법을 적용하기전 $R^2$, ME는 각각 0.75, 0.13으로 나타났고 조건부 합성 보정기법을 적용하였을 경우 각각 0.87, 0.82로 유출량 정확도가 크게 향상됨을 나타냈다. 다양한 국지성 집중호우 이벤트는 레이더 강우자료의 과대 및 과소추정을 유발하는 오차의 원인으로 조건부 합성 보정기법은 이러한 오차를 줄여 강우-유출 모형의 유출분석 결과 비교시 첨두유량 및 정량적인 면에서 실측 유량과 가깝게 모의되는 결과를 나타냈다.

In this paper, a dual-band stopband frequency selective surface that can be applied to Wi-Fi 6E systems is designed to block external interfering signals with adjacent operating frequency spectrum in indoor wireless LAN environments. The proposed frequency selective surface structure has frequency blocking characteristics in the 2.4GHz and 6GHz bands, and is realized through a modified crossed dipole structure and an interlocking puzzle form between unit structures. The proposed structure is designed to have stable frequency response characteristics with respect to incident angle and polarization, and the experimental results show good agreement with the simulation results for incident waves from 0° to 45°.

In this paper, we propose a multiple slotted dual-band square patch antenna with CP(Circular Polarization) characteristic. And we present the simulation and measurement results of the design example. We designed a slotted patch antenna by using computer simulation program, Zeland IE3D, and then some tuning followed with measurements. Measured -10dB bandwidths of $S_{11}$ characteristic are 127MHz($2.346GHz{\sim}2.473GHz$) for the low-band, and 122MHz($3.379GHz{\sim}3.501GHz$) for the high-band, respectively. And measured maximum gains and half-power beamwidths are 6.94dBi, $72.95^{\circ}$ for the low-band at 2.30GHz, 5.78dBi, $76.51^{\circ}$ for the high-band at 3.45GHz, respectively.
