A bandpass filter has been designed by employing the PBG structure and the aperture on the ground together in this paper. The harmonics of band pass filter have been suppressed by employing the PBG structure and the bandwidth of it has been broadened by using the aperture on the ground. The three kinds of PBG structures has been combined to suppress the harmonics of the filter The center frequency of filter is 2.2 GHz and the bandwidth has been increased from $40\%$ by the aperture and all harmonics were suppressed about 35dBc by the PBG. The insertion loss has been reduced 3.0dB to 2.6dB.

Aperture has been employed on the ground plane in the hairpin resonator. Aperture has been fabricated by etching the part of the ground effected coupling coefficient and then quality factor of hairpin resonator has been increased. When the hairpin oscillator using aperture has been compared with the conventional hairpin oscillator using microstrip, it has been improved the phase noise about 19 ㏈c @100 ㎑. As a result of PBG connecting to the output of the employing aperture hairpin oscillator, the second and third harmonics are suppressed. In this paper, oscillator has been designed and fabricated in operating 5.8 ㎓ band. The output power has been obtained 0,67 ㏈m and the second harmonic has been suppressed about -53,67 ㏈c.

In this paper, we introduced a band-pass filter employed the PBG structure and the aperture on the ground together. The harmonics of band pass filter have been suppressed by employing the PBG structure and the bandwidth of it has been broadened by using the aperture on the ground. The designed PBG cells have three different sizes. The largest cells, the middle cells, and the smallest cells have suppressed the multiple of second harmonics, the multiple of third harmonics, and the multiple of fifth harmonics, respectively. The center frequency has been 2.18 GHz. The bandwidth has been increased from 230 MHz up to 310 MHz(80 MHz, about $35\%$) by the aperture and the ripple characteristics in passband have been improved and the harmonic frequencies have been suppressed about 30 dB by the PBG.

This paper presents hairpin-comb bandpass filter using ground aperture. Hairpin-comb resonator maintains the weak coupling though the space between two resonators is very small. This has the good merit that the entire filter size is small for narrowband bandpass filter. The coupling between two hairpin-comb resonators so very weak that can't be applicable to general microstrip. We compensate the coupling by using ground aperture. It makes the hairpin-comb filter possible that can be applicable to general microstrip. Also it has the good merit which adjusts the bandwidth by changing the size of aperture without changing the space. In this paper, we fabricate the bandpass filter, which has 1.78 GHz center frequency and 62 MHz (3.5%) fractional bandwidth.

In this paper, we design the meander line inductors with high sensitivity and high quality factor(Q) using high characteristic impedance of aperture ground plate. Sensitivity as a frequency is new defined by variation of effective inductance per analysis frequency range instead of self resonance frequency (SRF). An equivalent lumped circuit is derived to explain the characteristic of high frequency inductor. The 4 nH meander line inductor with aperture ground plate has 0.45 nH/GHz of good sensitivity and 86 of Q at 0.7 GHz.

GB-SAR (Ground-Based Synthetic Aperture Radar) system is an imaging radar that obtains high resolution 2-D image through a synthetic aperture effect from the accurate linear-motion control of antenna on the ground. The highly versatile system configurations and accurate repeatability of GB-SAR operation allow one to accurately monitor the stability of surface scatterers with millimeter accuracy by SAR interferometry. In this paper we introduce the development of a GB-SAR system and show the possibilities of SAR polarimetry and interferometry such as DInSAR, Cross-Track InSAR, Delta-f InSAR, and PSInSAR.

This paper presents two ground plane effects due to the size of two rectangular apertures for two-wire transmission line with equal line length crossing the changeable rectangular apertures in infinite ground planes. The CST MWS is used to determine the characteristics of the insertion loss of the transmission line from the load section in accordance with the ground plane aperture size. The results show that the insertion gain and the insertion loss are periodically observed for the multiple frequency of the half wavelength resonance by the wire length when the transmission line is nearby to horizontal side or vertical side of the aperture. The measurements of the insertion loss are performed to verify the theoretical analysis.

This paper introduces volume-sharing multi-aperture imaging (VMAI), a potential approach proposed for volume reduction in space-borne imagers, with the aim of achieving high-resolution ground spatial imagery using deep learning methods, with reduced volume compared to conventional approaches. As an intermediate step in the VMAI payload development, we present a phase-1 design targeting a 1-meter ground sampling distance (GSD) at 500 km altitude. Although its optical imaging capability does not surpass conventional approaches, it remains attractive for specific applications on small satellite platforms, particularly surveillance missions. The design integrates one wide-field and three narrow-field cameras with volume sharing and no optical interference. Capturing independent images from the four cameras, the payload emulates a large circular aperture to address diffraction and synthesizes high-resolution images using deep learning. Computational simulations validated the VMAI approach, while addressing challenges like lower signal-to-noise (SNR) values resulting from aperture segmentation. Future work will focus on further reducing the volume and refining SNR management.
