This paper describes the design, fabrication, and measurement of a omni-directional beam pattern antenna for base station of the BIS which is one of the ITS services. The antenna is installed on the signal lamp of important crossroad and provides the wireless communication link between vehicles and RSE(Road Side Equipment). The required characteristics of BIS base station antenna are omni-directional beam pattern and specific beam pattern by the road and install environment and installed place of OBU. To get omni-directional beam pattern of antenna, Array configuration and OMA are applied. The measured results of fabricated antenna are as follows; return loss of 640MHz by -10 dB, and a gain of 10.3dBi. It is found that the measured beam patterns are similar to design results.

To satisfy the operational requirements of surveillance radar and the operational concept of a ship combat system, an active-array-type antenna was designed using solid-state transmitters and receivers. The arrangement of the constituent electronic components of the antenna system, considerably large in size, and therefore, the antenna needs to be housed in a box. The rotational antenna system installed on a ship mast is installed in a sealed housing to protect the interior equipment from environmental conditions. The outer shape of the housing is that the antenna should be capable of rotating normally despite strong winds. Furthermore, in recent times, designs with low radar cross section (RCS) have attracted attention from the viewpoint of improving the stealth of the ship. In this light, four types of models are proposed for the outer shape design of the antenna system, and they are investigated from the viewpoint of low RCS design as well as wind load.

RadarBeacons are navigational equipment that helps the navigators avoid dangerous rocks, such as heavy fog, nighttime, etc. when ships operate, or when visibility is bad. The existing antenna was researching the development of the advanced radar eacon (Enhanced Radar Beacon) for improving the development of the next generation racon with the AIS (Automatic Identification System) function.

If obstacle in GIS(Gas Insulted Switchgear), its affects are great are on the community and it is consequently demanded lots of difficulities to recover and repair. Accordingly, diagnosis techniques, that are able to prevent from accidents before they happen by providing more stable and highly reliable power effectively and finding sign of the accidents is very important. A novel UHF(Ultra High Frequency)-microstrip antenna is presented. The measured impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna is from 0.5[GHz] to 15[GHz] with the stop band from 0.5[GHz] to 10.7[GHz] for VSWR<2. Form results of this study, The antenna is will play an important role for the sensor for insulation diagnosis system by UHF method of real site GIS and power equipment using $SF_6$ gas.

In this paper, circularly polarization patch array antenna of RSE(Road-side Equipment) base station for DSRC(Dedicated Short Range Communication) of ITS(Intelligent Transport System) is proposed. The antenna of RSE base station for DSRC is designed to operate circularly polarization to receive reflected signal from multiplex path effectively. The proposed antenna consisted of microstrip patch and feed line, the slit is inserted in the proximity of the slot of feed structure to generate circularly polarization. The $2{\times}2$ array structure is designed to satisfying gain that DSRC RSE base station antenna required. Measured impedance bandwidth and axial-ratio bandwidth are satisfied by all DSRC band of 5.795~5.855 GHz. Vertical and horizontal HPBW of the proposed antenna are both about 43 degrees, it showed gain characteristic of about 11.21 dBi.

This paper describes the design, fabrication, and measurement of a low side lobe antenna for RSE base station of the ETCS which is one of the ITS services. The antenna is installed on the gantry of road side and provides the wireless communication lint between vehicles and RSE. The required characteristics of ETCS base station antenna are low sidelobe and specific beam pattern by the road and install environment and installed place of OBU. To minimize the affects of multipath signal by reflection, Circular polarization is required. To get low sidelobe of antenna, array configuration and weighting factor by Taylor distribution in radiator elements are applied. The measured results of fabricated antenna are as follows; return loss of 130MHz by -10dB, an axial ratio of 2.6dB, and a gain of 17dBi. It is found that the measured beam patterns are similar to design results.

Many technologies are being studied to reduce the RCS(Radar Cross Section) of stealth aircraft. Most RCS-reduction technlogies correspond to platforms. It is important to identify factors that RCS performance through simulation analysis of aircraft Mounted equipment. In particular, there are no studies of RCS performance in the radar frequency band when antenna transmit signals are applied. In this paper, the RCS performance variation on the transmit signal on/off of antennas mounted on a stealth aircraft was verified. Antennas were selected for each frequency band and simulated analysis to the RCS performance changes during antenna transmitting signal. Finally, to verify the characteristics of the change in RCS performance, RCS test measurements on the low-profile antenna transmit signal on/off were performed. In addintion, antenna RCS test measurement was performed according to the change of transmit signal power output. As a result, it was confirmed that there is no change in RCS performance when an antenna transmit signal is applied.

In this paper, we proposed on the azimuth correction method for a line-of-sight data-link tracking antenna system. Tracking antenna system is essential to maintain line-of-sight between moving object and data-link equipment. In order to calculate the azimuth and elevation between the moving object and antenna system, we used GPS data. also to match the each coordinate systems, we used geomagnetic sensor or beacon. However, the geomagnetic disturbance-prone terrain in places difficult to correct calibration. The first step, finds the location of the strongest RF signal, we should remember the difference between the reference point and the detected position of the antenna. The second step, we could communicate each other. And the azimuth angle is calculated by GPS values. Despite the geomagnetic interference, we can correct the azimuth angle quickly and easily.

This paper proposes a printed yagi-antenna available at 2.45 GHz, for the remote-management system of the underground equipment. To improve the solidity and waterproof property, the proposed antenna is coated with bakelite. The manufactured antenna is operated at $2.15{\sim}2.52\;GHz$, whose gain measures 10 dBi. These results are a little different from those of the simulated antenna, but the trend is totally similar. Developed antenna is expected to be useful in the underground facility.

As the development and distribution of the intelligent transport system is spreading recently and some of the services are commercialized through a pilot project, interest in DSRC with high utilization is increasing and antennas for roadside and on board equipment are being studied. A single patch was used for a vehicle antenna due to the requests of miniaturization of size, but there was performance degradation in most cases due to miniaturization. In addition, some methods to improve performance have been used in the antennas that were previously researched using the arrays, but they have the disadvantages of bulkiness in size of the antennas when using the arrays. Therefore, in this paper, the CPW fed microstrip patch antenna with the simple structure of being compact and easy to produce, which can be used in the OBU of DSRC, was designed.
