In this paper, we have studied the dependence of insertion loss of the pressed microstrip PBG ring consisting of coupled two microstrip lines. When the distance decreases, two or three attenuation poles are created by the coupling between the lines. Thus the pressed PBG ring exhibits a wide stop band and sharp cutoff characteristics.

In this paper, numerical analysis package using Time-Domain Finite Difference (TDFD) method is developed to solve the initial value problem of Maxwell's equation and applied to several microstrip structures. TDFD allows us to show graphically the evolution of the crosswalk between microstrip lines. Moreover, we can obtain transmission line parameters and scattering parameters through Fourier transform of TDFD results in easy and efficient ways. TDFD is successfully applied to :1) wide band electromagnetic wave propagation along the single microstrip line, 2) crosswalk analysis between two microstrip lines, and 3) three metal line side-coupled filter. Our results show much better agreement with other theoretical experimental results reported in the literature. Thus we expect that TDFD is very useful to designing MMIC(Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit).

Frequency-variant transmission line parameters are determined. Then the signal transient characterizations of frequency-dependent multi-coupled lines are investigated. With the proposed method, an accurate signal integrity degradation such as signal ringing (overshoot, undershoot) and crosstalk noises relevant to the switching patterns of signals, rising / falling time(tr, tf) and line lengths is investigated. It is shown that there may be approximately 26% discrepancy of signal transients and 260% difference of crosstalk noises between the constant RLC model and frequency-variant RLC model in on-chip global interconnects while those of package lines are 11% and 70%, respectively.

In this paper, a method of canceling and suppressing differential-mode crosstalk-noise signals caused by non-uniform coupling between two transmission lines in UTP(Unshielded Twisted Paris) modular jacks is discussed. Differential-mode crosstalk-noise signals in balanced transmission lines in UTP modular jacks were suppressed by inserting auxiliary capacitance between balanced transmission line pairs which are located closely enough to be effectively coupled each other. To verify the effectiveness of the inserted capacitances, precisely calculated auxiliary capacitances were applied to 10 pin modular jacks which are used in local area networks at 100 Mb/s with unshielded twisted pair-cables. The NEXT(Near-End Crosstalk) losses were measured to prove its applicability.

An accurate signal integrity verification method based on high-frequency measurements is proposed. For practical transmission lines that require a package process, process variations metal roughness and skin effects and boundary conditions may have deteriorative effects on circuit performance. These effects are represented in terms of parameters that can be readily utilized for field-solver. Thereby a more accurate signal integrity verification using field-solver can be achieved. It is shown that in both single and coupled lines the signal transients using the proposed method have excellent agreement with the measurement data.

This paper presents the concept design procedure of a floating-type combined renewable energy platform based on hydrodynamic analyses and is focused on the fatigue design of taut-type mooring lines of the platform. Two types of combined renewable energy platforms are considered: a combination of wind turbine, wave turbine and photovoltaic energy plant and a combination of wind turbine, current turbine and photovoltaic energy plant. The basic configurations are conceptually determined from the understanding of floating offshore plants, while the main dimensions have been determined based on a hydrostatic calculation. Fully coupled hydrodynamic analyses have been carried out to identify the motion characteristics of the floating body and the tension histories of the mooring lines. The tension history is used for the fatigue life prediction based on the rain-flow cycle counting method. For the fatigue life prediction, tension life curves from API and the Palmgren-Miner rule are employed.

Time domain closed-form analytical solutions to the coupled telegrapher's equations for the voltage and current on a lossless multiconductor transmission line are presented. The resulting expressions are obtained in the form of exact time domain propagators operating on the line voltage and current. Time domain numerical methods are developed and examples showing exceptionally accurate results are obtained for uniform and nonuniform; symmetric and asymmetric strip lines.

The analysis of magnetic fields(2-D) induced by line currents, such as Overhead Trolley Lines or Transmission Lines, is not so easy by using the standard Finite Element Method(FEM). Mesh generation is one of the most important processes in the standard FEM. Because, the current region is relatively small compared with whole region, and actually is a line without thickness, the mesh refinement around the source lines yields many demerits. A way of supplement such a defect, we proposed the coupling scheme of analytical solution and FEM. In this study, the analytical solution is adopted around the region of line currents and FE solution is a lied to the rest of source region. And the two types of solution are coupled at the artificial boundary. To verify the usefulness of proposed algorithm, simplified model with magnetic material in FE region is chosen and analyzed. The results are compared with those of standard FEM. And the errors between them can be reduced by increasing harmonic orders.

This paper presents a HVDC site selection algorithm to increase transfer capability using VSC HVDC system which can control active power as well as reactive power. Using normal powerflow results and simple index $k_r$ the HVDC site selection algorithm is enhanced and more tightly-coupled transmission lines are identified in a domain of generators.
