A novel compact circular polarization operation of the microstrip antenna with four-slits and T-slits is proposed. The mechanism for compact size antenna is investigated with the behavior of the currents on the radiating patch. The equivalent surface current path due to the slits is lengthened, reducing the resonant frequency at a fixed patch size. The proposed compact CP design can have an antenna size reduction of about 33 ∼ 45％ as compared to the conventional microstrip antenna. Details of the experimental and measured results are presented and analysed.

The simultaneous suppression of sidelobes and the sharpening of the central peak in the process of diffraction pattern detection based on asymmetric apodization have been investigated. Asymmetric apodization is applied to a semicircular array of two-dimensional (2D) aperture functions, which is a series of 'coded-phase arrays of semicircular rings randomly distributed over the central circular region of a pupil function' and is similar to that used in the field of diffractive optics. The point spread function (PSF) of an imaging system with asymmetric apodization of the discrete type has been found to possess a good side with suppressed sidelobes, whereas its bad side contains enhanced sidelobes. Further, the diffracted field characteristics are obtained in the presence of these aperture functions. Asymmetric apodization is helpful in improving the performance of the optical gratings or 2D arrays used in real-time imaging techniques.

This paper proposes an aperture coupled circular polarized patch antenna operating at ISM band(5GHz). For improving the characteristic and performance of broadband and circular polarization at single circular polarized patch antenna. We designed and analyzed the sequentially rotated arrayed(SRA) using phase delay of 0$^{\circ}$, 90$^{\circ}$, 180$^{\circ}$, 270$^{\circ}$and 0$^{\circ}$, 45$^{\circ}$, 90$^{\circ}$, 135$^{\circ}$. Experimental result, the SRA antenna using phase delay of 90$^{\circ}$and 45$^{\circ}$are improved at the wideband and axial ratio. Also, the SRA antenna using phase delay of 45$^{\circ}$verified that it is better bandwidth and axial ratio than the SRA antenna using phase delay of 90$^{\circ}$.

In this paper, a miniaturized band-pass filter structure, which comprises the irises of small resonant aperture and L-type irises inverter, is proposed. Ridged circular aperture iris is chosen as an elementary resonator. L-type iris which is placed between two adjacent elementary resonators is newly proposed as impedance inverter in order to reduce longitudinal length of the proposed filter. The fabricated minimized filter has 400 MHz bandwidth at the 10 GHz center frequency and the whole size is reduced to 70 % in length compared to conventional filter.

A two-arm microstrip spiral antenna with a circular aperture on the ground plane that generates a circularly polarized conical beam is presented in this paper. We obtained circularly polarized conical beam by using two spirals that are excited in-phase from the microstrip feed lines. The main beam directions of the conical beam from the broadside are approximately 40$^{\circ}$ in the range from 5 GHz to 6.5 GHz, and 58$^{\circ}$ from 9 GHz to 11 GHz. Since the proposed antenna has omni-directional conical beam pattern, it is suitable for use in mobile communication systems.

This paper proposes a unidirectional beam antenna using a probe excited circular ring near the reflector. The antenna structure is simple. The radiation characteristics of the antenna fur various spacing between a probe excited circular ring and the reflector are analyzed. These characteristics are also compared with the conventional single aperture near the reflector. It is found that the proposed structure yields better characteristics than the conventional structure. The numerical results of the radiation pattern, elevational beam peak, beamwidth, and maximum directivity are investigated. The result of the analysis is very useful to design the antenna of the high directivity with unidirectional beam.

In this paper, we design a secant pattern antenna combined with a septum circular polarizer to be used in the satellite data communications. To generate a radiation pattern with secant type, Fourier relationship between current distribution and space factor is applied and the circular symmetric structure of the aperture simplifies the design. The optimization process is performed by combining the radiator with the septum circular polarizer, and it is confirmed that the designed radiation pattern, axial ratio, and return loss characteristics satisfies the required performance of the antenna.

In this paper, cross-aperture coupled microstrip circular polarization antenna is proposed for 5.8 GHz WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network). A single antenna consists of square patch and slots are located in series feed line with $\lambda_g$/4 phase different which make current direction maximum and minimum repeatedly to generate RHCP(Right Handed Circularly Polarization). We are proposed new structure that removed the section which intersected at a right angle and were composed to four separated slots. The proposed cross slots reduce back lobe of radiation pattern and improve antenna gain. Impedance bandwidth of the manufactured $2\times2$ array antenna is from 5.67 to 5.95 GHz and the maximum radiation gain is 10.59 dBi.

For many different types of apertures the diffraction phenomenon on the electromagnetic wave is analyzed by unsing Kirchhoff and Fresnel's diffraction theory. The signal intensity in variation of aperture's parameters is numerically calculated by a computer. To obtain the experimental data many types of apertures were made on an acryl board on which a special materical Elecoat was painted for preventing some reflections on the board surface and transmissions through it. Two Yagi antennas were used for a transmitting and receiving antenna and the frequency was 820MHz. The theoretichal values agreed reasonably with experimental data and these results will be used for a system design in the mobile communication between many buildings in the middle of a city.

The ultrasonic imaging systems using synthetic aperture beamforming has been formed in the way that one element transmits and then receives a pulse. Because the amplitude of a pulse from one element is too small to propagate a long distance, the SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio)is low. This paper proposes the method to make a circular wave almost equal to one generated by one element using several elements. The amplitude of the wave made up of several elements is much larger than that of one element. And we can improve the SNR.
