In this paper, an inverted-triangle patch UWB antenna with an uneven ground planes and an inverted T-slot for 5 GHz WLAN band rejection is presented. The operating bandwidth of the proposed antenna fed with the CPW line is expanded from 3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz for about -10 dB return loss using three angular parameters correlated to the main patch and the ground plane. The fabricated antenna on Taconic RF-60A substrate with 6.16 relative dielectric constant and 0.64 mm thickness has a main antenna patch size of 36 mm${\times}$19.5 mm. The measured results show return losses of about -10 dB and nearly omni-directional radiation patterns. The proposed UWB antenna has advantages of easily adjustable impedance characteristics by the three angular parameters and easily accomplishable band rejection characteristics by the inverted T-slot.

In this paper, the characteristics of the inductor and capacitor, which are the basic components of the circuit, are constructed in a form that can be used in the LTCC multilayer. The inductors and capacitors used for the analysis were designed with rectangular spiral structures and MIM structures inside dielectrics with a dielectric constant of 7, respectively. The measured results were extracted from each element of the equivalent circuit proposed by the curve fitting method and verified the validity of the proposed equivalent circuit based on the extracted results. The analyzed inductor and capacitor were implemented in the form of library and proved its usefulness by applying to Elliptical type 5th LPF design. The LPF was measured through practical production, and as a result, the insertion loss in the passband DC ~ 3.7 GHz was up to 1.0 dB, the return loss was 19.2 dB, and the attenuation in the rejection band was 23.9 dB, which was close to the design goal.

In this paper, the T-SRR (Triple Split Ring Resonator) using MNG (mu-Negative) meta-material adapted in a low-loss bandpass filter with 3-stages is suggested. The size of the T-SRR in the proposed bandpass filter with low dielectric constant PCB can be easily controlled. And the ${\lambda}/4$ transmission line theory is applied. The proposed T-SRR and filter have the center frequency of 10 GHz with QL value of 184 for military-satellite communication system in I band. The experimental results of the filter show that the insertion and return losses are 1.44 dB and 17.3 dB with bandwidth of 10 %, respectively. The proposed filter will be redesigned by IPD material etc. should be placed here. These instructions give you guidelines for preparing papers for JICCE.

In this paper, a high gain, broadband planar vivaldi antenna (PVA) by utilizing a broadband stripline feed is developed for wireless communication for IoT systems. The suggested antenna is designed by attaching a tapered-slot construction to a typical vivaldi antenna, which improves the antenna's radiation properties. The PVA is constructed on a low-cost FR4 substrate. The dimensions of the patch are 1.886λ₀×1.42λ₀×0.026λ₀, dielectric constant Ɛ_r=4.4, and loss tangent δ=0.02. The width of the feed line is reduced to improve the impedance bandwidth of the antenna. The computed reflection coefficient findings show that the suggested antenna has a 46.2% wider relative bandwidth calculated at a 10 dB return loss. At the resonance frequencies of 6.5 GHz, the studied results show an optimal gain of 5.82 dBi and 85% optimal radiation efficiency at the operable band. The optometric analysis of the proposed structure shows that the proposed antenna can achieve wide enough bandwidth at the desired frequency and hence make the designed antenna appropriate to work in satellite communication and medical internet of things (M-IoT) healthcare applications.

In this study, a 40 GHz band pass filter(BPF) employing a hair-pin structure has been designed, fabricated, and characterized for millimeter-wave wireless communication applications. Using the 3 dimensional(3-D) electromagnetic(EM) tool and design equations of the hairpin BPF, the BPF was desgned on the 5 mil-thick Duroid substrate(RT5880) with a relative dielectric constant (${\varepsilon}_r$) of 2.2. The tapping point (t) of the U-shape resonator in the input and output port has been determined using extracted an external Q-factor ($Q_e$). The coupling coefficients between the other resonators are calculated by adjusting the physical dimensions for the desired response of the BPF. The fabricated BPF was characterized using probing method on a probe station. Its measured center frequency(fc) and fractional BW are 41.6 GHz and 7.43 %, respectively. The measured return loss is below -10 dB at the pass band and the insertion loss is 3.87 dB. The fabricated BPF is as small as $9.1{\times}2.8mm^2$.

Fabrication and electrical characterization of R. F. High-power unit capacitors were investigated to study on condition of fabrication processing for R. F. High-power unit capacitor and electrical characteristics according to addition of $ZrO_2$. The unit capacitors were fabricated using tape casting. The optimum mixture ratio of dielectrics and mixing binder for the slurry fabrication was 57.5∼60.0: 42.5∼40.0 wt%. The slurry viscosity was 4000∼5000 cps and casting state of green tape fabricated using these slurry was excellent. Optimum stacking was made by 200 kg/$cm^2$ pressure with 80$^{\circ}C$ heating. $ZrO_2$ was added to improve the electrical characteristics of unit capacitor, especially breakdown characteristics. The dielectric constant and loss factor of the unit condenser having different $ZrO_2$ amounts was not changed in the addition range of 1 to 5 wt%. Also, dielectric constant was not changed in the frequency range of 10 to 500 kHz. It was found that characteristics of resistance voltage was improved through the formation of $CaZrO_3$ and the reduction of particle size as about 3wt% $ZrO_2$ was added.
