A microstrip antenna having a dual polarization and a smaller size than feed horn polarizer of F.R.R.S(Faraday Rotation Rotary Switch) is designed, in which GaAs MESFET switches are inserted for selective reception of RHCP or LHCP. For an accurate analysis of the resonance frequency, input impedance and radiation pattern of the circularly polarized microstrip antenna, finite difference time domain (FDTD) method is used. When the GaAs MESFET switch in the feeder is ON-stats, the truncated patch antenna has a gain of about 16.6dB including amplifier gain, while the switch is OFF-state, this has a isolation level of -24dB.

In this paper, wireless channel characteristics of massive MIMO system is analyzed by comparing angular spread, cross polarization discrimination(XPD) and delay spread of dual polarized 4 and 128 transmit array antenna systems, by using 3D rat-tracing simulator, Wireless Insite in microcell environments. The analysis shows that increasing the number of transmit antennas results in the smaller angular spread and delay spread, and the higher value of XPD.

A wideband dual-polarized antenna coupling cross resonator is proposed for LTE700/GSM850/GSM900 base stations. An additional resonance is introduced to obtain strong coupling between the dipole and resonator. Moreover, the input impedance of the proposed antenna is steadily close to $50{\Omega}$, which results in better impedance matching. Therefore, a wide bandwidth can be achieved with multiresonance. A prototype is fabricated to verify the proposed design. The measured results show that the antenna has a fractional bandwidth of 35.7% from 690 MHz to 990 MHz for ${\mid}S_{11}{\mid}$ < -15 dB. Stable radiation patterns as well as gain are also obtained over the entire operating band. Moreover, a five-element antenna array with an electrical downtilt of $0^{\circ}$to $14^{\circ}$ is developed for modern base station applications. Measurement shows that a wide impedance bandwidth of 34.7% (690 MHz to 980 MHz), stable HPBW (3-dB beamwidth) of $65{\pm}5^{\circ}$, and high gain of $13.8{\pm}0.6dBi$ are achieved with electrical downtilts of $0^{\circ}$, $7^{\circ}$, and $14^{\circ}$.

This paper describes a compact microstrip antenna with dual polarization characteristics. The antenna, receiving both a left-hand circularly polarized(LHCP) wave and a right-hand circularly polarized(RHCP) wave, can be used for a polarization diversity. A diamond-shaped patch with internal empty room is designed for impedance matching as well as size reduction. And slots are added around feeding point to improve input matching. The proposed antenna has been applied to GPS(global positioning system), operating at 1.57GHz. And, the proposed idea has been verified and estimated by simulation. The measurement results show that it has VSWR 2:1 bandwidth of 83MHz, 3dB axial bandwidth of about 58MHz, 3dB beamwidth of 90degree, and gain of 0dBi, respectively, for RHCP. Also, it has similar performances for LHCP.

A stepped septum polarizer has been designed and fabricated for the 43 GHz band KVN receiver system. The dual-circular polarizer converts left and right hand circularly polarized signals into linear polarizations in two separated rectangular waveguides. Measurements show that the performance of the designed septum polarizer covering 42-48 GHz frequency band is adequate to meet the requirement of KVN receivers. Especially, a polarizer for the KVN receiver of 85-95 GHz frequency band can be fabricated by scaling the dimensions of the septum polarizer developed in this paper.

In this paper, the waveguide slot array antenna which is capable of wide beam steering and dual polarization is designed for an X band synthetic aperture radar. In order to improve the restriction of beam steering range and to remove the butterfly lobes, a typical waveguide slot array antenna has been modified. To implement dual polarization, rod excited waveguide slot elements and ridge waveguide slot elements are alternately arranged. Location of slots, inclination of rod and offset distance of slots are determined on using array characteristic and conductance constant with radiating power on slots. The designed antenna is manufactured and measured with Near-filed measurement method.

We built an optical parametric oscillator (OPO) generating orthogonally polarized signals at different wavelengths simultaneously, based on a periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) crystal. The OPO was pumped by ns-pulses at 1.064 ㎛ from a diode-pumped solid-state laser, where we found the type-0 and the type-1 quasi-phase matching conditions were satisfied simultaneously in the PPLN crystal. This enabled us to create a coherent light source which can emit dual signals which could be accessed easily by rotating a polarizer.

The UHDTV system, which provides realistic service with ultra-high definite video and multi-channel audio, has been studied as a next generation broadcasting service. Since the conventional digital terrestrial transmission system is not capable to cover the increased transmission data rate of the UHDTV service, there are great necessity of researches about increase of data rate. Accordingly, the researches has been studied to increase the transmission data rate of the DVB-T2 system using dual-polarized MIMO technique and high order modulation. In order to optimize the MIMO DVB-T2 system where irregular LDPC codes are used, it is necessary to study the design of the bit mapper that matches the LDPC code and QAM symbols in MIMO channel. However, the research related to the design of the bit mapper has been limited to the SISO system. Therefore, this paper defines a new parameter that indicates the VND distribution of MIMO DVB-T2 system and performs the performance analysis according to the parameter which will be helpful for designing a MIMO bit mapper.
