In this paper, the broadband antenna for the combined base station of Cellular/PCS/IMT-2000/Wibro and S-DMB services is designed and the proposed antenna allows having sufficient coverage for each service band. In order to get the broadband impedance matching, the tapered sections are applied on the both terminus of hi-conical respectively. The design parameter is calculated and simulated by using FDTD method. As a result, the measured bandwidth of the proposed antenna is $0.79GHz{\sim}2.93GHz$ and the gain is distributed from 5.5 dBi up to 8.19 dBi.

In this paper, we propose a personal-computer-based wireless data access system, which use DS/SS(Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum) method and the ISM band of 2.44GHz radio frequency. By applying hi-directional transmission between wireless handy terminals and PCs or servers, it can be easily connected with any kinds of database systems such as Oracle, MS-SQL and MS-ACCESS. Therefore, it could be economically adopted as peripheral equipments for ERP or SCM systems.

In this paper, the printed-sleeve monopole antenna which has the small size and the broadband characteristics, is presented and its radiation characteristics are investigated. To conform the broadband characteristics of the proposed antenna, the experimental antenna is designed, fabricated, and its radiation characteristics are measured in PCS band (1.75 GHz${\~}$1.87 GHz). It is shown that the designed antenna has the non-directional pattern in the horizontal plane, the directional pattern in the vertical plane, VSWR less than 1.5, and gain in 2.14 dBi${\~}$3.4 dBi. From these results, the proposed antenna is conformed as a broadband antenna which can be used for the mobile communication indoor antenna extensively.

In this paper, a quad-band antenna for DCS1800, PCS1900, WCDMA, WLAN and Mobile WiMAX application is proposed. The proposed antenna is a printed monopole structure, and consists of two rectangular ring-shaped radiating patches on the front side and two different size of L-shaped slots on the back side(ground plane). Two rectangular ring radiation patches are respectively resonant at 2 GHz and 3.5 GHz bands, and additional resonance is occurred at 5.3 GHz by the coupling effect between two ring patches. In addition, the optimized matching characteristic is obtained by controlling the gaps. Also, by adding two L-slots on the ground plane, additional resonant frequency band of 5.6 GHz is occurred. Finally the measured bandwidths of the proposed antenna below -10 dB return loss are 1,200 MHz(1.6~2.8 GHz), 800 MHz(3.2~4.0 GHz), 300 MHz(5.14~5.44 GHz), and 690 MHz(5.56~6.25 GHz). The radiation patterns have the omni-directional characteristic, and the measured antenna average gains at resonant bands are 0.86~4.07 dBi.

Objectives: Periapical lesions, including periapical cyst (PC), periapical granuloma (PG), and periapical abscess (PA), are frequently affected by chemical/physical damage during root canal treatment or severe bacterial infection, and thus, the differential diagnosis of periapical lesions may be difficult due to the presence of severe inflammatory reaction. The aim of this study was to make differential diagnosis among PC, PG, and PA under polarizing microscope. Materials and Methods: The collagen birefringence patterns of 319 cases of PC (n = 122), PG (n = 158), and PA (n = 39) obtained using a polarizing microscope were compared. In addition, 6 cases of periodontal fibroma (PF) were used as positive controls. Results: Collagen birefringence was condensed with a thick, linear band-like pattern in PC, but was short and irregularly scattered in PG, and scarce or absent in PA. PF showed intense collagen birefringence with a short, palisading pattern but no continuous band-like pattern. The linear band-like birefringence in PC was ascribed to pre-existing expansile tensile stress of the cyst wall. Conclusions: In this study all PCs (n = 122) were distinguishable from PGs and PAs by their characteristic birefringence, despite the absence of lining epithelium (n = 20). Therefore, the authors suggest that the presence of linear band-like collagen birefringence of the cyst wall aids the diagnostic differentiation of PC from PG and PA.

In this paper, we design microstrip antenna for GPS / WiFi for broadband mobile communication. The proposed antenna is designed to be used in the FR-4 (er = 4.3), the size is $40mm{\times}50mm$, and it can be used in the GPS frequency band of 1.6GHz and the WiFi frequency band of 5GHz. 2014, and the simulation result shows that the gain is 1.909dB at 1.6GHz and 4.607dB at 5GHz. The S-parameter also showed a result of less than -10dB (WSWR2: 1) in the desired frequency band. Recently, it is expected that GPS navigation system, which is widely used in smart phones and tablet PCs, can be easily and conveniently used by combining and applying GPS with WiFi.

In this paper, the detection of 1 g and 10 g averaged SAR on human head caused by PCS/IMT-2000 handhold phones is analyzed and discussed. Planar structured Single-Semi-disc MPA and double-Semi-disc MPA is designed and resonance characteristics with variety of design parameters are analyzed. As a result, 2.0 ㎓ center frequency, at the bandwidth of single-semi-disc MPA and double-semi-disc MPA are 15.5 ％ and 31 ％, respectively. And monopole antenna with W4 length is designed and compared with double-semi-disc MPA in SARs. The SARs caused by double-semi-disc MPA on folder type handset are 0.811 W/kg and 0.507 W/kg and are about 32.7 ％ lower than monopole-1.206 W/kg and 0.7552 W/kg. While the radiation pattern of the monopole antenna is symmetrical, that of planar structured antenna is asymmetrical and SAR caused by double-semi-disc MPA is less than SAR by the monopole antenna.
