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.

In this study, we investigated the effect of groove pattern and gap-fill with lossy materials at 15 GHz frequency of Ku-band. We used Epoxy/MWCNT composite materials as gap-fill materials. Although epoxy does not have an absorbance capability, epoxy added conductive fillers, which are multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT), can function as radar absorbing material. Specimens were fabricated with different MWCNT mass fractions (0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 wt%) and their permittivity in the Ku-band was measured using the waveguide technique. We investigated the effect of gap-fill on monostatic RCS by calculating RCS with and without gap-fill. For arbitrarily chosen thickness and experimentally obtained relative permittivity, we chose the relative permittivity of MWCNT at 2 wt% (${\varepsilon}_r$=8.8-j2.4), which was the lowest reflection coefficient for given thickness of 3.3 mm at V-pol. and $80^{\circ}$ incident angle. We also checked the monostatic RCS and the field intensity inside the groove channel. In the case of H-pol, gap-fill was not affected by the monostatic RCS and magnitude was similar with or without gap-fill. However, in the case of V-pol, gap-fill effectively reduced the monostatic RCS. The field intensity inside the groove channel reveals that different RCS behaviors depend on the wave polarizations.

최근 빠르고 편리하게 데이터 송수신이 가능한 무선LAN은 가정, 사무실 등 다양한 장소에서 사용이 증가하고 있다. 그러나 실내에서 무선LAN을 사용할 경우 천장, 벽, 바닥, 책상 등에서의 반사파에 의한 다중반사가 발생하여 데이터 전송의 오류 및 성능 저하의 주된 원인이 된다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 Graphite의 특성을 분석하고 최적의 조성비를 찾아내서 무선LAN 환경에 적합한 전파흡수체를 연구하였다. 먼저 Graphite와 지지재인 CPE(Chlorinated Polyethylene)를 이용하여 조성비별 전파흡수체 샘플을 제작하고, 각 샘플의 반사계수를 측정하였다. 측정된 데이터로부터 재료정수를 계산하고, 전파흡수체를 설계 및 제작하여 전파흡수능을 비교, 분석 하였다. 그 결과 조성비가 Graphite : CPE=50:50 wt%이고, 두께 1.7 mm 인 전파흡수체가 5.2 GHz에서 27 dB 이상의 전파흡수능을 가지는 우수한 전파흡수체를 개발하였다.

An analysis method for the electromagnetic scattering of a tE polarized plane wave from a periodic strip grating over a grounded dielectric slab is consisered from the viewpoint of reflectio ngraing problem. The strip gratings showing bragg and off-bragg balzing phenomena at the frequency of 10GHz are designed, respectively. The strip grating structure is implemented using aluminum plate (hround conductor), paraffin(dielectric material ; .xi.$_{\gamma}$=2.24) and copper (strip conductor ; 0.08mm thickness). The experimental results (reflection power) for bragg as well as off-bragg blazing phenomenon have been compared with the theoretical results and fairly good agreements between theory and experiment have been observed.ed.

이동통신주파수 대역에서 박형의 전파흡수체를 제작하기 위해 순철 분말을 흡수 충진재로 사용한 고무 복합체의 고주파 특성(복소투자율, 복소유전율) 및 전파흡수특성에 대해 조사하였다. 주요 실험변수는 순철 분말의 초기입도와 형상(구형, 압분체) 변화였다. Attrition milling에 의해 두께가 표피두께보다 작은 순철 압분체를 제작함으로써 임피던스정합 조건에 근접하는 고투자율과 고유전율을 동시에 얻을 수 있었다. 이는 milling에 의해 구형에서 평판상으로 모양이 바뀜에 따라 와전류 손실이 감소하고(복소투자율의 증가), 압분체 간의 정전용량이 증가한 것(복소유전율의 증가)에 기인한다. 초기입도가 10$\mu\textrm{m}$인 순철 압분체를 흡수 충진재로 사용함으로써 이동통신주파수 대역(0.8-2.0㎓)에서 반사손실이 -5㏈(70% 전력흡수율), 두께가 0.7mm 수준인 박형의 전파흡수체를 제안할 수 있었다.
