In this paper we consider an application of the method of electromagnetic (EM) migration to the interpretation of a typical marine controlled-source (MCSEM) survey consisting of a set of sea-bottom receivers and a moving electrical bipole transmitter. Three-dimensional interpretation of MCSEM data is a very challenging problem because of the enormous number of computations required in the case of the multi-transmitter and multi-receiver data acquisition systems used in these surveys. At the same time, we demonstrate that the MCSEM surveys with their dense system of transmitters and receivers are extremely well suited for application of the migration method. In order to speed up the computation of the migration field, we apply a fast form of integral equation (IE) solution based on the multigrid quasi-linear (MGQL) approximation which we have developed. The principles of migration imaging formulated in this paper are tested on a typical model of a sea-bottom petroleum reservoir.

A 6~10 GHz wide-band power amplifier was designed using an InGaAs enhancement-mode(E-mode) $0.15{\mu}m$ pseudomorphic high-electron-mobility transistor(pHEMT). The positive gate bias of the E-mode pHEMT device removes the need for complex negative voltage generation circuits, therefore reducing the module size. The wire bond and substrate loss parameters were modeled and extracted using a three-dimensional electromagnetic(3D EM) simulation. For wideband characteristics, lossy matching was adopted and the gate bias was optimized for maximum power and efficiency. The measured gain, in/output return loss, output power, and power-added efficiency were greater than 20 dB, 8 dB, 27 dBm, and 35 %, respectively, in the 6~10 GHz band.

In this paper, we designed and fabricated the Electro-Magnetic (EM) wave absorber for wireless LAN by using Amorphous and CPE. The material constants and the absorption properties were measured for the samples containing 50 %, 60 %, and 70 % weight fraction of Amorphous. Moreover, the EM wave absorption abilities were simulated for the EM absorbers in different thicknesses by adopting the measured permittivity and permeability, and then the EM wave absorber was fabricated based on the simulated design values. As a result, the EM wave absorber with the composition ratio in Amorphous : CPE = 60 : 40 wt.% with the thickness of 4 mm has the absorption ability more than 35 dB at 2.4 GHz. Thus, it is expected the wireless LAN environment can be improved by using the developed absorber.

A small-loop electromagnetic (EM) system using multiple frequencies has advantages in survey speed and cost despite of limitation on its depth of investigation. Therefore, small-loop EM surveys have been frequently used on various site investigations involving engineering and environmental problems. We have developed a subsurface imaging technique using small loop EM data. We used a one-dimensional (ID) inversion method to reconstruct a subsurface image from frequency EM sounding data. Tests using simulated data show that the method can reasonably recover the subsurface resistivity structure. Also, the method was tested on field data obtained with multiple frequency small loop EM system at a farm in Chunchon, Korea. The resistivity image obtained form field data compares favorably with the image from the dipole-dipole resistivity survey.

To analyze soil properties with depth in rice field, we compared resistivity distributions obtained from soil analysis with one dimensional inversion of small loop electromagnetic (EM) data. Although it didn't show consistency exactly between the two resistivity distributions, low resistivity zones in soil analysis, appeared to agree with low resistivity zones in EM result. Therefore, small loop EM method can be applied to obtain rapidly the soil properties such as salt accumulation in a rice field. If research on soil property and EM responses of unsaturated zone would be conducted consistently, small loop EM method can be used effectively to detect salt accumulated zone in agricultural area.

Induced electromagnetic fields of printed circuit board are computed using method of moment. In this calculation PEC and dielectric boards are considered when exposed to the external fields. The volume and surface integral equations are presented for the electromagnetic wave scattering from plate structures composed of dielectric and conducting objects. To reduce the computing time a fast multipole technique is applied.

Ultra wide band electromagnetic energy can be transmitted to a far field by emitting the nanoseconds high voltage pulse electromagnetic energy via an antenna. This UWB EM energy is expected to be used in post-packing pasteurization of food, detection of buried objects or underground water veins and caves and the treatment of waste water or polluted gas. The nanoseconds pulse forming for UWB generation using high voltage blumlein line and an ultrafast switch is mentioned.

Development of a modeling technique for accurately interpreting electromagnetic (EM) data is increasingly required. We introduce finite difference (FD) and finite-element (FE) methods for three-dimensional (3D) frequency-domain EM modeling. In the controlled-source EM methods, formulating the governing equations into a secondary electric field enables us to avoid a singularity problem at the source point. The secondary electric field is discretized using the FD or FE methods for the model region. We represent iterative and direct methods to solve the system of equations resulting from the FD or FE schemes. By applying the static divergence correction in the iterative method, the rate of convergence is dramatically improved, and it is particularly useful to compute a model including surface topography in the FD method. Finally, as an example of an airborne EM survey, we present 3D modeling using the FD method.

In this paper, we designed and fabricated EM wave absorbers using Sendust, $Al(OH)_3$ and CPE(Chlorinated Polyethylene). We compared the absorption properties of samples containing 0 wt.%, 3 wt.%, 5 wt.%, 7 wt.% of $Al(OH)_3$. The optimized composition ratio of $Al(OH)_3$ is 5 wt.%, and the absorption property curve just has the tendency to improve at 5 wt.% of $Al(OH)_3$. And we used this characteristics to design the double-layered EM wave absorber. The double-layered EM wave absorber has thickness of 2 mm and has absorption ability more than 18.5 dB at a wireless LAN frequency band using 2.4 GHz.

The X-band 10${\times}$10 waveguide slot array antenna for SAR is designed, fabricated and measured. The array antenna is designed using the equivalent circuit model based on the field distribution of the dominant mode, TE$\sub$10/, and EM simulation. The method to decide optimum angle of the centered inclined slot(coupling slot) and the optimum of offset of the longitudinal slot(radiating slot) is provided. The designed antenna structure is EM simulated and fabricated. The measured return loss bandwidth is 180 MHz at 9.15 GHz , the side lobe level is below -25 dB, HPBW is about 9$^{\circ}$, and the gain is 25.5 dB. These results are similar to the simulation data.
