Many organizations today use patch management systems to uniformly manage software vulnerabilities. However, the patch management system does not guarantee the integrity of the patch in the process of providing the patch to the client. In this paper, we propose a method to guarantee patch integrity through dual electronic signatures. The dual electronic signatures are performed by the primary distribution server with the first digital signature and the secondary distribution server with the second digital signature. The dual electronic signature ensures ensure that there is no forgery or falsification in the patch transmission process, so that the client can verify that the patch provided is a normal patch. The dual electronic signatures can enhance the security of the patch management system, providing a secure environment for clients.

Radiation properties of flush mounted circular patch antenna are investigated. The patch is fed axis-symmetrically by a coaxial cable. Rigorous analysis is given using integral transform and mode matching techniques. The presented method accommodates radiating patch, and integrated matching sections and band pass filter.

In this paper, the characteristics of Koch island microstrip patch antenna are investigated by numerical and experimental methods. The Koch patch is fractal shaped antenna which can be characterized by two properties such as space-filling and self-similarity. Due to its space-filling property of fractal structure, the proposed Koch fractal patch antennas are smaller in size than that of conventional square patch antenna. From numerical and experimental results, it is found that as the iteration number and iteration factor of Koch patch increase, its resonance frequency becomes lower than that of conventional patch, thus contributes to antenna size reduction. In particular, when the fractal iteration factor is 1/4, the fractal antenna is 45% smaller in size than that of conventional patch, while maintaining radiation patterns comparable to those of rectangular antenna and cross polarization level is about -20~-14 dB.

Radiation characteristics of $5{\times}4$ pin array patch antennas are compared to those of $5{\times}2$ pin array patch antennas for several substrate thicknesses using the computer simulation. Since the number of unit cells of a $5{\times}2$ pin array patch antenna is half of that of a $5{\times}4$ pin array patch antenna, the number of pins used in a $5{\times}2$ pin array patch antenna is half of that in a $5{\times}4$ pin array patch antenna and the patch width of a $5{\times}2$ pin array patch antenna is very small compared to that of a $5{\times}4$ pin array patch antenna. However, the radiation characteristics of a $5{\times}2$ pin array patch antenna are almost similar to those of a $5{\times}4$ pin array patch antenna.

In this paper, a integrated structure of a two-element microstrip patch antenna with two feeds for GPS/PCS dual-band operation is proposed. The radiating element for PCS operation is a novel broad band low-profile cylindrical monopole top-loaded with a shorted meander patch, which gives linearly polarized conical radiation pattern and size reduction of patch due to meander line. The radiating element for GPS operation is a novel square-ring microstrip patch with truncated corners and slits. which provide circularly polarized broadside radiation patterns and size reduction due to slots. using dielectric substrate in GPS antenna of proposed antenna provide to improve isolation between two feeds and reduce size of patch. The proposed antenna achieves the bandwidth and polarization requirements of GPS and PCS systems.

The patch antennas with an array of pins with excellent radiation characteristics are investigated for several substrate thicknesses. The patch length of a pin array patch antenna for the maximum suppression of radiation in the horizontal plane decreases as the substrate thickness increases. The radiation in the horizontal plane of a pin array patch antenna is very small compared to that of a conventional patch antenna. The increase of forward radiation and the decrease of backward radiation of a pin array patch are obtained compared to those of a conventional patch antenna. The half-power beamwidth of E-plane radiation pattern of a pin array patch antenna is narrow compared to that of a conventional patch antenna so that the directivity is improved.

Radiation characteristics of inductive loaded patch antennas (ILPAs) and conventional patch antennas using a half wavelength resonance mode for substrates with various dielectric constants are investigated. ILPAs have the good radiation characteristics such as high broadside gain and suppressed radiation along the horizontal plane compared to those of conventional patch antennas. We show that ILPAs with the appropriate patch length and via radius have the optimum radiation characteristics such as the highest broadside gain and the most suppressed horizontal radiation.

The radiation characteristics of a pin array patch antenna phased array are compared to those of a conventional patch antenna phased array. The performance of a pin array patch antenna phased array is much improved than that of a conventional patch antenna phased array because the mutual coupling between the adjacent pin array patch antennas is very small compared to that between the adjacent conventional patch antennas. The radiation characteristics of a pin array patch antenna phased array show the superior performance such as low variation of the gain of the main beam and the side lobe level for the variation of the direction of the main beam.

Patch antennas with an array of pins interconnecting the patch and the ground (Pin array patch antennas) are fabricated and their characteristics are measured. The radiation characteristics of pin array patch antennas are compared to those of conventional patch antennas. The suppressions of the radiation in horizontal directions in E-plane and H-plane are more than 10 dB and 4 dB, respectively. The forward radiation is increased, while the backward radiation is decreased. The directivity is improved because the half-power beamwidth of radiation patterns in both E-plane and H-plane is reduced. The resonance frequency of a pin array patch antenna increases as the pin radius of a pin amy patch antenna increases. An optimum pin radius of a pin array patch antenna exists for the maximum suppression of the radiation in horizontal directions.

In this paper, a high gain patch antenna using a single layer metamaterial superstrate with a near-to-zero refractive index (n) is proposed. Simulations for an ordinary patch antenna and our proposed metamaterial patch antenna were conducted. Our proposed metamaterial patch antenna was implemented and measured. The gain of our proposed metamaterial patch antenna is 6.77dB higher than that of an ordinary patch antenna.
