We describe a single-channel rubidium (Rb) radio-frequency atomic magnetometer (RFAM) as a receiver that takes magnetic signal resonating with Zeeman splitting of the ground state of Rb. We optimize the performance of the RFAM by recording the response signal and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in various parameters and obtain a noise level of 159 $fT{\sqrt{Hz}}$ around 30 kHz. When a resonant radiofrequency magnetic field with a peak amplitude of 8.0 nT is applied, the bandwidth and signal-to-noise ratio are about 650 Hz and 88 dB, respectively. It is a good agreement that RFAM using alkali atoms is suitable for receiving signals in the very low frequency (VLF) carrier band, ranging from 3 kHz to 30 kHz. This study shows the new capabilities of the RFAM in communications applications based on magnetic signals with the VLF carrier band. Such communication can be expected to expand the communication space by overcoming obstacles through the high magnetic sensitive RFAM.

In this paper, for phase lock loop(PLL) synthesizer, we introduce a novel but simple and low cost frequency modulation(FM) circuit of a flat peak frequency deviation for modulation signal from high to very low frequency penetrating into the loop-bandwidth of PLL. The FM circuit was basically designed to compensate an amount of feedback of the loop filter in PLL. The circuit also includes the capability of the adjustment of peak frequency deviation and blocking the interference with the loop filter. The designed circuit was successfully implemented and showed the flat frequency deviation as expected in the design.

With a progress of electrical and electronic technology, radio-frequency circuits including high frequency components are widely applied to various industrial installations. Some of them are used in hazardous locations where explosive or flammable gases exist. As a result, ignition of such gases may be induced by a spark discharge when the radio frequency circuits are switched on or off. The purpose of this study is to investigate the ignition hazards of acetylene-air and ethylen-air mixtures experimentally based on the IEC 79-3 publication. In this experiment, we used a high frequency resistive circuit which consists of a co-axial cable, a $10{\Omega}$, $20{\Omega}$, $30{\Omega}$, $40{\Omega}$ or $50{\Omega}$ resistor and a power amplifier with frequency range up to almost 1 MHz. Experimental results show that the ignition of the acetylene-air and ethylen-air mixtures due to spark discharge depends primarily on the frequency of the power source in the resistive circuit: the minimum ignition voltage increases gradually with the increase of the frequency.

High frequency peakers (HFPs) are promising candidates for young active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Their small physical scale (< 1 kpc) and radio spectrum peaked at high frequency (> 5 GHz) are suggestive that it has been only about $10^2-10^3$ years since a central massive black hole in their host galaxies was launched. Until recently however, long-term monitoring radio observations at frequencies which are high enough to cover the true peak of HFP candidates were rare. Therefore, previous HFP samples are often contaminated by blazars, which are highly variable, hence may show a similar radio spectrum as HFPs depending on the observational epoch. In this work, we challenge to identify genuine young AGNs by monitoring HFP candidates at high radio frequencies. We performed single-dish monitoring of 19 candidates in 18 epochs over 2.5 years at 22 and 43 GHz using the Korean VLBI Network (KVN). Also, using KaVA, a combined array of the KVN and the VERA in Japan, we carried out 22 GHz VLBI observations of two HFPs and one blazar selected from our sample in order to compare their parsec scale (milli-arcsecond scale) morphology. HFPs are expected to have double/triple features, so called compact symmetric objects, which are scaled-down versions of extended radio galaxies, while blazars typically show core-jet morphology. We discuss the properties of AGNs at their very early evolutionary stage based on the results of the KVN and KaVA observations.

Radio navigation aids are very important elements to provide information necessary for safe navigation using radio waves. Recently, the number of radio equipment using radio waves is increasing, and the air frequency interference by adjacent channels is very high. In addition, the use of irregular jamming that threatening radio navigation aids and satellite navigation system frequency is rapidly increasing. Therefore, it is urgent to ensure the safety of air waves. In this paper, we investigated the characteristics and frequency of the domestic navigation system. And we were analyzed the geographical separation standard for implementation of analysis program. Also, we implemented a program for the geographical separation distance analysis that applying international standards and recommended practices.

This paper proposes the adaptive class-E power amplifier with maintaining high power added efficiency (PAE) to apply RFID and wireless communication system. This switch mode amplifier is used a microprocessor to control a resonator circuits and to maintain high efficiency in case of input frequency variation. To validate the adaptive amplifier operation, which is a 450MHz operating frequency and a 100MHz bandwidth, the class E amplifier is implemented. As a result, the adaptive amplifier is maintained above 60% efficiency in frequency range and has a 74.8% maximum efficiency.

Partial high frequency bands were allocated to the operation of ocean surface radars that monitor the sea surface currents and waves in WRC-12. On that basis, government-related organizations revised the table of domestic frequency allocation. In order to study radio environments in the allocated bands for ocean radar, tests of the radio signal spectrum were carried at 7-sites using the receiver of the ocean surface radar system operated with a shutdown of the transmitter for 10-60 min. The results showed that no serious radio noises occur at 25 and 43 MHz bands, indicating a good radio environment for the ocean surface radar operation. However, at 13 MHz band, it was difficult to generate stable and confidential data from the ocean surface radar because serious radio noises occurred continuously.

Powder quality, including high flowability and spherical shape, determines the properties of additively manufactured products. Therefore, the cheap production of high-quality powders is critical in additive manufacturing. Radio frequency plasma treatment is an effective method to fabricate spherical powders by melting the surface of irregularly shaped powders; in the present work, mechanically milled Zr powders are spheroidized by radio frequency plasma treatment and their properties are compared with those of commercial Zircaloy-2 alloy powder. Spherical Zr particles are successfully fabricated by plasma treatment, although their flowability and impurity contents are poorer than those of the commercial Zircaloy-2 alloy powder. This result shows that radio-frequency plasma treatment with mechanically milled powders requires further research and development for manufacturing low-cost powders for additive manufacturing.

This paper presents an approach to detect the dielectric condition of FRP Hot Stick in EHV high voltage cable whereas shutting down the power system is not necessary. The radio frequency generating method is adopted by transmitting radio wave into the Electrodes. This instrument is small, easy to use and also inexpensive. Furthermore, the impurity level of dirt on high voltage insulator (non-ceramic type) will be analyzed by using the methods based on IEEE Std.978-1984 at 105 kV.DC. /305 mm. and OSHA Regulation 1910.269 Part J - live line tools. The frequency at 10-20 MHz is applied to FRP Hot Stick via Electrode1 and from FRP Hot Stick surface to Electrode 2. After that the results will be evaluated by testing in each condition of FRP Hot Stick, such as dry surface, hot surface, foil winding and conductor inserting. Finally, the watt loss will be examined and compared with the loss from humidity and Carbon tracking. The important components of this system are radio frequency generating unit, frequency stabilizing unit, frequency amplifier, FRP Hot Stick frequency counter, processing unit, and display unit.

In this paper, we have investigated characteristics of radio frequency for double gate MOSFET with 50nm main gate in according to variation of side gate length. We could know the increasement of cut-off frequency as the side gate length is lower. As a result, we could know the most optimum performance characteristics when side gate length was 70nm. In this time, the DG MOSFET of side gate with 70nm has very high cut-off frequency like 41.4GHz.
