This letter presents a K-band polarization reconfigurable antenna integrated with a silicon radio frequency MEMS switch into the form of a compact package. The proposed antenna can change its state from linear polarization (LP) to circular polarization (CP) by actuating the MEMS switch, which controls the configuration of the coupling ring slot. Low-loss quartz is used for a radiating patch substrate and at the same time for a packaging lid by stacking it onto the MEMS substrate, which can increase the system integrity. The fabricated antenna shows broadband impedance matching and exhibits high axial ratios better than 15 dB in the LP and small axial ratios in the CP, with a minimum value of 0.002 dB at 20.8 GHz in the K-band.

정합장처리(matched-field processing)는 실제 음향자료와 복제음장과의 공간 coherence를 이용한 음장의 역추정 방법이다. 광대역 스펙트럼을 가지는 음원의 경우 협대역 단일 주파수별로 정합장 출력을 계산한 후, 각 출력을 더하는 incoherent 광대역 정합장처리를 사용하였으나, 그 경우 수신기들과 주파수들간의 상호 공간과 주파수 정보를 사용치 못하므로 음원 위치추정 성능이 저하된다. 본 논문에서는 광대역 스펙트럼의 여러 주파수를 사용하여 확장된 CSDM(cross-spectral density matrix)을 구성하여 coherent 정합장처리를 구현하고, 각 정합장처리 기법에 대한 음원 위치추정 성능을 분석하였다.

본 논문에서는 현재 운용되고 있는 낙뢰탐지 시스템들과는 다른 측위방식인 TDOA(Time Difference of Arrival)방법을 사용한 3차원 낙뢰 탐지 및 추적 시스템을 제안한다. TDOA방식은 낙뢰와 수신국사이의 도달시간을 측정하여 두 수신국간의 시간차가 일정한 쌍곡선을 얻고 이들 쌍곡선의 교점을 이용해 낙뢰의 위치를 결정하는 방법이다. 이 시스템을 이용하여 위치정확도가 수 미터인 3차원 낙뢰 방전 궤적을 얻을 수 있다. 시스템의 구현을 위해서 먼저 낙뢰의 신호를 저장해야 하는데, 광대역의 낙뢰신호를 저장하기 위해서는 고속의 디지타이저가 필요하다. 그러나 디지타이저와 프로세서간의 인터페이스의 한계로 연속적으로 이를 저장하는 것은 어려우며, 이러한 신호 저장의 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 낙뢰 신호 저장 시스템이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 낙뢰의 메커니즘과 광대역 낙뢰신호 검출기법을 설명하고, 구현한 낙뢰 신호 저장 시스템을 소개한다.

A W-band Orthomode Transducer (OMT) has been developed for Korean VLBI Network (KVN) polarization observation. The OMT design was based on E-plane split-block technique using septum structure. 3-dimensional electromagnetic simulation was fully employed to optimize the performance of the OMT. Measurements of the fabricated OMT show that the return losses for the vertically and horizontally polarized modes are better than -20 dB across 80 ~ 108 GHz and the insertion losses for the both modes are less than 0.47 dB. The cross-polarization level of the OMT is less than -30 dB. The bandwidth of the developed OMT is estimated as around 30%.

In this paper, a novel compact broadband dual frequency microstrip antenna is presented. The meander type patch has been designed to have dual resonant frequencies, and the ground with slot was employed to expand the bandwidth in WCDMA band. The simulated results were obtained using HFSS, and the measurement on the proposed antenna was conducted in an anechoic chamber equipped with a network analyzer and a far field measurement system. As a result, measured maximum gain of antenna is 2.07$\sim$2.87 dBi in the GSM band and 3.91$\sim$5.61 dBi in the WCDMA band.

There are a few core technologies to enable high-performance $4^{th}$ generation (4G) broadband wireless communication system. A multiple input multiple output (MIMO) provides high-rate transmission through expended channels by multiple array antennas in both sender and receiver side. Also orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is well-known as the most appropriate technique for high data rate transmission such as Mobile WiMAX and WLAN. Efficient decrease of inter-carrier interference (ISI) and inter-carrier interference (ICI) are the reasons for why OFDM is suitable for high-performance transmission, 4G mobile communication. In this paper, we mainly focus on two of objects, combination between MIMO and OFDM, and OFDM channel simulator using Ray-tracing algorithm. The results of this paper can be used implementation of a Wireless Software Platform for 4G Mobile Communication Systems.

Pressure distribution is measured by way microphones to identify noise sources in the space. For example, beam-forming method or acoustic holography use phase information to identify the source. Therefore, the phase is significant information to correctly identify the source position. However, due to the microphone characteristics and measuring systems, measured signals always have errors, which make the identification difficult. Therefore, phase calibration of microphones is needed. Duct and speaker systems are generally used as calibrators. Acoustic characteristics of the calibrator are, of course, functions of many Parameters of the system: i.e. duct size, frequency, and microphone spacing. In this paper, design parameters which effect on the performance and size of the calibrators are considered. Then the parameters would be applied to design and real product of the phase-calibrator.

After the introduction of ATM as a proper technology for B-ISDN, there have been many research efforts to realize ATM networks. But a computationally tractable modelling technique which reflects diverse characteristics of the ATM traffic accurately is not available yet. In this study, we try to establish an accurate but still convenient ATM traffic model. We first introduce the modelling technique for the voice traffic based on the fluid flow approximation. Then we present a traffic model for the mixed traffic from multiple video sources and voice sources. The video source model is based on the 3 state continuous time Markov chain. The accuracy of the model is demonstrated by some comparison results with respect to simulation.
