The radar method is becoming one of the major nondestructive testing(NDT) techniques lot concrete structures. Numerical modeling of electromagnetic wane is needed to analyze radar measurement results. Finite difference-time domain(FD-TD) method can be used to simulate electromagnetic wave propagation through concrete specimens. Five concrete specimens with different thickness are modeled in 3-dimension. Radar modeling results compare measurement results to find backface of the concrete specimens and measure thickness of the concrete specimens.

In this research, integral transform technique for electromagnetic scattering formulation is reviewed. Electromagnetic boundary-value problems are presented to demonstrate how the integral transforms are utilized in electromagnetic propagation, antennas, and electromagnetic interference/compatibility. Various canonical structures of slotted conductors are used for illustration; moreover, Fourier transform, Hankel transform, Mellin transform, Kontorovich-Lebedev transform, and Weber transform are presented. Starting from each integral transform definition, the general procedures for solving Helmholtz's equation or Laplace's equation for the potentials in the unbounded region are reviewed. The boundary conditions of field continuity are incorporated into particular formulations. Salient features of each integral transform technique are discussed.

In mobile radio communication, propagation paths are time or spacial varying because of the motion of mobile unit. The propagation path loss not only involves frequency and distance but also the antenna height at both the base station and the mobile unit, terrain configuration, and the man made en- vironment. Thhese additional factors make the prediction of propagation path loss of mobile radio signals more difficult. In this paper, it is measured field strenght of mobile radio signals in Daejeon and Seoul area, also calculated local median, 500m sample mean, and stadard deviation. As the result of analysis, it can be seen that propagation path loss of measured data is similiar to predicted field strength, especially local median is dependent upon base antenna height, terrain configuration and the man-made environment. The standard deviation has been noted to lie between 2 and 10 dBuV.

In this paper, the propagation characteristics for ISM(Industrial Scientific and Medical) and TVWS(TV White Space) in indoor building environment are analyzed in comparison with theoretical and experimental results, the excellent propagation characteristics of the TVWS is confirmed. To this end, signals which have center frequencies of 503 MHz and 2.4 GHz are generated in building propagation environment. Through that, received power strength is measured according to the location and measured path loss is analyzed. Theoretical path loss is calculated using Hata, Extended Hata, Extended Hata SRD, ITU-R P.1238 and reliability for channel model in indoor environment is analyzed.

The significant additional path loss is caused by scattering, diffraction, and attenuation of propagation. Most of the wave propagation models for rural areas mainly have considered the influence of topography but ignored the effects due to land usage. The goal of this paper is development of the field strength prediction program for Cheju which is used the contour map and the effects due to land usage. In oder to classify the propagation path and divide the environment of land, data of the terrain and the land-cover are formed into a pixel. Two-ray model is transformed into equivalent model by the predicted reflection coefficient and the slope of terrain. For non line of sight, the additional loss is determined by quantitative analysis. The result show good accord and the wave propagation model program can be applied to predicted the service region in rural area of Cheju.

In this paper, we measure and analyze propagation characteristic of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning(HVAC) ducts within buildings for wireless networks. We analyze the duct structures, implement the feeders exciting propagating modes, and simulate the excitation characteristic. We measure the propagation characteristic of HAVC ducts at 2.45 GHz WiFi band and compare it with that of LOS and partitioned office environments. We propose the design method of wireless network using HVAC ducts based on our results.

It is very important to analyze and predict the propagation characteristics of LEO communication satellite at the service area using computer simulation. In this paper, the propagation characteristics of a satellite communication system are analyzed using ray tracing technique. We predicted the receiving environment and obtain the delay profile and total received power at each position using ray tracing method by changing both the azimuth and elevation angles after establishing the imaginary receiving space. The final goal of this paper is to analyze and understand the wave propagation characteristics of the satellite communication network about 2 GHz frequency band. The prediction method presented in this paper may help us to design satellite transceiver system and to construct a satellite communication network.

This paper presents the propagation characteristics from ingested sources in human body using the human model simulator. The simulator applies the FDTD method to the human data consisting of the human CAD and tissue data. After the accuracy of the simulator is verified, the received fields at one horizontal layer including the small intestine among the digestive organs are calculated in case that the electric field source is implanted in the center of the small intestine. The human propagation characteristics are illustrated by calculating the path loss per unit length according to various received positions from the simulated results.

The calculation method of induction voltage is abbreviately by the Ohm's law including Carson-Pollaczek's equation for mutual inductance estimation and various shielding effect coefficients. This method is mainly scoped to 60㎐. power source and the inducing/induced object positioned on the air, and the dimension of shielding material is not thoroughly reflected. In this paper, more general method of calculation is scrutinized through electromagnetic wave propagation principles. Electromagnetic force as a voltage in the spot generating from the source is evaluated according to the position of the source and object, especially their relationship with earth surface as boundary line and independent to source propagation frequency. And this method intends to consider the material specification of each object in the induction field.

Wall obstruction is the main factor leading to the non-line of sight (NLoS) error of indoor localization based on received signal strength indicator (RSSI). Modeling and correcting the path loss of the signals through the wall will improve the accuracy of RSSI localization. Based on electromagnetic wave propagation theory, the reflection and transmission process of wireless signals propagation through the wall is analyzed. The path loss of signals through wall is deduced based on power loss and RSSI definition, and the theoretical model of path loss of signals through wall is proposed. In view of electromagnetic characteristic parameters of the theoretical model usually cannot be accurately obtained, the statistical model of NLoS error caused by the signals through the wall is presented based on the log-distance path loss model to solve the parameters. Combining the statistical model and theoretical model, a hybrid model of path loss of signals through wall is proposed. Based on the empirical values of electromagnetic characteristic parameters of the concrete wall, the effect of each electromagnetic characteristic parameters on path loss is analyzed, and the theoretical model of regional path loss of signals through the wall is established. The statistical model and hybrid model of regional path loss of signals through wall are established by RSSI observation experiments, respectively. The hybrid model can solve the problem of path loss when the material of wall is unknown. The results show that the hybrid model can better express the actual trend of the regional path loss and maintain the pass loss continuity of adjacent areas. The validity of the hybrid model is verified by inverse computation of the RSSI of the extended region, and the calculated RSSI is basically consistent with the measured RSSI. The hybrid model can be used to forecast regional path loss of signals through the wall.
