In this paper, we have proposed a novel method which can analysis the direction finding ambiguity analysis for array geometry in 3 channel and 4 channel multiple baseline direction finding system. Generally, the direction finding ambiguity in the 3 element and 4 element phase interferometer direction finding system is calculated by the simulation for the array spacing or by the probability with the selected antenna array spacing. There are some restrictions to obtain the ambiguity of direction finding system in these methods. The former performs a simulation with every antenna array spacing and the latter calculates the ambiguity with the selected antenna array spacing. To overcome those restrictions, This paper proposed the novel method to calculate the ambiguity using the imaginary antenna array spacing and the phase difference prior to the modular operation in direction finder. Using the proposed method, we obtain the ambiguity probability for each of array geometry composed of multiple baseline. After performing the simulation with the selected antenna array spacing to verify the proposed method, we compared the calculated result data with the simulation data.

In this letter, a miniaturized log-periodic dipole array (LPDA) antenna operating from 1 GHz to 6 GHz is proposed for portable direction finding applications. To reduce the lateral size of an LPDA antenna, bow-tie elements and a top-loading technique are utilized and spacing factor is decreased to reduce the spacing between the LPDA elements. The proposed miniaturized LPDA antenna has the measured gain and front-to-back ratio ranging from 1.2 dBi to 3 dBi and from 7 dB to 22 dB, respectively.

본 논문에서는 UWB 대역에서 동작하는 소형 대수-주기 반-보우타이 다이폴 배열 안테나에 대한 설계 방법에 대하여 연구하였다. 제안된 안테나는 일반적인 대수-주기 다이폴 배열 안테나에서 사용되는 스트립 형태의 다이폴 소자 대신에 반-보우타이 형태의 다이폴 소자를 사용하고 소자간의 간격을 줄여 소형화하였다. 반-보우타이 다이폴 소자의 벌어지는 각도와 소자 사이의 간격에 따른 입력반사계수와 이득 특성을 분석하였다. 최적화된 안테나를 FR4 기판에 설계하였고, 전압 정재파비(VSWR; voltage standing wave) < 2인 대역이 3.05-13.96 GHz으로 UWB 대역에서 동작하는 것을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 UWB 대역(3.1-10.6 GHz)에서 동작하는 소형 대수-주기 반-보우타이 다이폴 배열 안테나에 대한 설계 방법에 대하여 연구하였다. 제안된 안테나는 일반적인 대수-주기 다이폴 배열 안테나에서 사용되는 스트립 형태의 다이폴 소자 대신에 반-보우타이 형태의 다이폴 소자를 사용하고 소자간의 간격을 줄여 소형화하였다. 반-보우타이 다이폴 소자의 벌어지는 각도와 간격계수에 따른 입력 반사계수와 이득 특성을 분석하였다. 최적화된 안테나를 FR4 기판 상에 제작하고 특성을 실험한 결과 전압 정재파비(voltage standing wave ratio; VSWR) < 2 이하인 대역은 2.95-11.31 GHz으로 UWB 대역에서 동작함을 확인하였다. 또한, 대수-주기 다이폴 배열 안테나에 비해 제안된 안테나의 길이와 폭은 각각 32.1 %와 18.3 %가 축소되었다.

Spatial correlation is a result of insufficient antenna spacing among multiple antenna elements, while temporal correlation is caused by Doppler spread. This paper compares the effect of spatial and temporal correlation in order to investigate the performance of multiuser scheduling algorithms in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) broadcast channels. This comparison includes the effect on the ergodic capacity, on fairness among users, and on the sum-rate capacity of a multiuser scheduling algorithm utilizing statistical channel state information in spatio-temporally correlated MIMO broadcast channels. Numerical results demonstrate that temporal correlation is more meaningful than spatial correlation in view of the multiuser scheduling algorithm in MIMO broadcast channels. Indeed, the multiuser scheduling algorithm can reduce the effect of the Doppler spread if it exploits the information of temporal correlation appropriately. However, the effect of spatial correlation can be minimized if the antenna spacing is sufficient in rich scattering MIMO channels regardless of the multiuser scheduling algorithm used.

In this paper, two 4$\times$4 rectangular patch array antennas operating at 20 GHz are implemented for the satellite communication. The sixteen patch antennas and microstrip feeding line are printed on a single-layered substrate. The design goal is to achieve high directivity and gain by optimizing design parameters through permutations in element spacing. The spacing between the array elements is chosen to be 0.736$\lambda$. Numerical simulation results indicate that the HPBW(Half-Power Beam Width) of the 4$\times$4 patch array antenna is 18.78 degrees in the E-plane and 18.48 degrees in the H-plane with a gain of 17.18 dBi. Numerical simulations of a 4$\times$4 recessed patch array antenna yield a HPBW of 18.71 degrees in the E-plane and 17.82 degrees in the H-plane with a gain of 19.43 dBi.

The accessibility conditions and the guidelines of the optimum antenna design for the efficient current drive are derived. The dependence of the current drive efficiency on launching conditions such as the phase and spacing Is presented.

In this paper, we derive analytical expressions for the exact pairwise error probability (PEP) of a space-time coded system operating over spatially correlated fast (constant over the duration of a symbol) and slow (constant over the length of a code word) fad­ing channels using a moment-generating function-based approach. We discuss two analytical techniques that can be used to evaluate the exact-PEPs (and therefore, approximate the average bit error probability (BEP)) in closed form. These analytical expressions are more realistic than previously published PEP expressions as they fully account for antenna spacing, antenna geometries (uniform linear array, uniform grid array, uniform circular array, etc.) and scattering models (uniform, Gaussian, Laplacian, Von-mises, etc.). Inclusion of spatial information in these expressions provides valuable insights into the physical factors determining the performance of a space-time code. Using these new PEP expressions, we investigate the effect of antenna spacing, antenna geometries and azimuth power distribution parameters (angle of arrival/departure and angular spread) on the performance of a four-state QPSK space-time trellis code proposed by Tarokh et al. for two transmit antennas.

This paper concerns a least square approach to optimizing a thinned antenna array with respect to antenna spacing to improve the sidelobe performance. A least square method based on a modified version of the modified perturbation method is proposed to efficiently synthesize an optimum pattern in a thinned array. It is demonstrated that the array performance improves with the proposed method, compared with the conventional method.
