우리는 MOSFET Layout 단계에서 Multiplier 구성을 통한 Common centroid layout 방식을 사용한 무선 전력 전송 용 CMOS 정류회로를 제안한다. 제안하는 정류회로는 기존의 다이오드를 사용하지 않은 Cross-coupled MOSFET 정류회로로 13.56 MHz에서 동작한다. 전력 소모를 최소화하고, 높은 주파수까지 동작하기 위하여 Full bridge 정류회로에서 효율을 높이기 위한 비교기를 제거하였다. Layout 단계에서 Multiplier 구성을 통한 Common centroid layout 방식은 Chip-layout 상에서 MOSFER의 Finger에 의해 길어진 연결 선로에 존재하는 기생 직렬 저항과 병렬 Capacitor에 의해 발생하는 시간 지연을 줄이기 위해 고안되어, 천이 시간을 줄여 Cross-coupled 구조의 On-상태에서 Off-상태, 혹은 그 반대의 상태 변화를 빠르게 한다. 이는 빠른 상태 변화 시간으로 인해 전력 변환 효율을 증가시킨다. 본 정류회로는 $0.11{\mu}m$ CMOS 공정으로 제작되었으며, 전력 변환 효율은 최대 86.4%로 측정되었으며, 600 MHz 이상까지 높은 전력 변환 효율을 가지며, 이는 현재 발표된 것 중, Cross-coupled 구성을 기반으로 한 정류회로 중 가장 높은 성능을 가진다.

The dependences of microscopic magnetic domain on film thickness in unidirectional and isotropic exchange-coupled NiO/NiFe bilayers were investigated by magnetic force microscopy to better understand for exchange biasing. As NiO thickness increases, microscopic domain structure of unidirectional biased film changed to smaller and more complicated domains. However, for isotropic-coupled film a new cross type domain appeared with out-of plane magnetization orientation. The density of the cross domain is proportional to exchange biasing fields and the fact that the domain was originated by the strongest exchange coupling region was confirmed from the dynamic domain configuration during a magnetization cycle.

교차결합 마이크로스트립 헤어핀 공진기 여파기는 통과대역과 저지대역에서 리플이 나타나며 이러한 리플들은 주파수 선택도와 삽입손실을 개선시킬 수 있다. 교차결합 여파기는 구조가 간단할 뿐 만 아니라 여러가지 형태로 구성할 수 있으므로 그에 따라 여파기 크기가 달라진다. 본 연구에서는 중심주파수가 1.8GHz이고 대역폭이 5.0%를 갖는 대역통과 여파기를 Ensemble 소프트웨어로 설계하였다. 제작된 여파기의 대역폭은 중심 주파수 1.8GHz에서 약 4.53%를 나타내었다.

In this paper, a cross-coupled microstrip combline bandpass filter using stepped-impedance resonators(SIRs) is proposed. In order to improve the selectivity as well as the insertion loss, the SIR configuration is used. The cross coupling is also introduced to enhance the selectivity. The improvement of the insertion loss is demonstrated not only by deriving the quality factor of the SIR but through the measured performances. Both the proposed and the conventional combline bandpass filter with 5 % of fractional bandwidth at 2 GHz were fabricated and tested. Compared to the conventional combline bandpass filter, the proposed one exhibits the improved selectivity as well as the lower insertion loss characteristics.

Multi-body spacecraft attitude and configuration control formulations based on the use of collaborative control theory are considered. The control formulations are based on two-player, nonzero-sum, differential game theory applied using a Nash strategy. It is desired that the control laws allow different components of the multi-body system to perform different tasks. For example, it may be desired that one body points toward a fixed star while another body in the system slews to track another satellite. Although similar to the linear quadratic regulator formulation, the collaborative control formulation contains a number of additional design parameters because the problem is formulated as two control problems coupled together. The use of the freedom of the partitioning of the total problem into two coupled control problems and the selection of the elements of the cross-coupling matrices are specific problems ad-dressed in this paper. Examples are used to show that significant improvement in performance, as measured by realistic criteria, of collaborative control over conventional linear quadratic regulator control can be achieved by using proposed design guidelines.

The impedance bandwidth and radiation characteristics of an aperture-coupled microstrip line-fed patch antenna (ACMPA) with a high permittivity (${\varepsilon}_r=10$) feed substrate suitable for integration with a monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) are investigated for various feed substrate thicknesses through an experiment and computer simulation. The impedance bandwidth of an ACMPA with a high permittivity feed substrate increases as the feed substrate thickness decreases. Furthermore, the front-to-back ratio of an ACMPA with a high permittivity feed substrate increases and the cross-polarization level decreases as the feed substrate thickness decreases. As the impedance bandwidth of an ACMPA with a high permittivity feed substrate increases and its radiation characteristics improve as the feed substrate thickness decreases, the ACMPA configuration becomes suitable for integration with an MMIC.

This paper proposes a tunable combline bandpass filter with high selectivity, constant bandwidth, and good stopband performances. A filter with these characteristics is obtained by applying cross-coupling to the conventional combline bandpass filter using stepped-impedance resonators(SIRs). For high selectivity and constant bandwidth, cross-coupling is utilized and the SIR configuration is used for enhanced stopband performances. The proposed combline tunable bandpass filter with 5% of fractional bandwidth at 1.6 GHz was fabricated and tested. The measured results showed 11.6% tunability with constant bandwidth, high selectivity and enhanced stopband characteristics.

Applications of ultrasonic tomography to concrete structures have been reported for many years. However, practical and effective application of this tool for nondestructive assessment of internal concrete condition is hampered by time consuming transducer coupling that limits the amount of ultrasonic data that can be collected. This research aims to deploy recent developments in air-coupled ultrasonic measurements of solids, described in Part 1 of this paper set, to concrete in order to image internal inclusions. Ultrasonic signals are collected from concrete samples using a fully air-coupled (contactless) test configuration. These air coupled data are compared to those collected using partial semi-contact and full-contact test configurations. Two samples are considered: a 150 mm diameter cylinder with an internal circular void and a prism with $300mm{\times}300mm$ square cross-section that contains internal damaged regions and embedded reinforcement. The heterogeneous nature of concrete material structure complicates the application and interpretation of ultrasonic measurements and imaging. Volumetric inclusions within the concrete specimens are identified in the constructed velocity tomograms, but wave scattering at internal interfaces of the concrete disrupts the images. This disruption reduces defect detection accuracy as compared with tomograms built up of data collected from homogeneous solid samples (PVC) that are described in Part 1 of this paper set. Semi-contact measurements provide some improvement in accuracy through higher signal-to-noise ratio while still allowing for reasonably rapid data collection.

In this study, vortex induced vibrations of a cylinder mounted on a flexible rod are analyzed. This simple configuration represents the key element of new conception bladeless wind turbine (Whitlock 2015). In this study the structure oscillations equation coupled to the wake oscillation equation for this configuration are solved using analytical perturbation method, for the first time. An analytical expression that predicts the lock-in phenomena range of wind speed is derived. The discretized equations of motion are also solved using RKF45 numerical method. The equations of motion are discretized by Galerkin method. Free vibration mode shape of the structure taking into account the discontinuity of the cross section are used as comparison function. Numerical results are compared to the analytical results, and they show a satisfying agreement. The effect of system parameters on the oscillations of structure and wake as well as on the lock-in domain are presented. Moreover, it is shown that the values of wind speed triggering the start and the stop of the lock-in phenomenon, for increasing wind speed are different from those values obtained during the reverse process, i.e., when the wind speed decreases.
