In this paper, we propose a multi-mode wireless power transfer (WPT) system with a dual loop structure. The proposed multi-mode WPT system consist of outer loop module which can operate at two different frequency bands including 6.78 MHz magnetic resonance WPT mode and 13.56 MHz near field communication (NFC) mode and inner loop module connected with outer loop which can operate at two different frequency bands including WPC mode and PMA mode based on inductive coupling standards. In order to be able to embed this system into smartphone battery back cover, the electrical designs are optimized and then the size was fixed $45{\times}90{\times}0.35mm3$ (including ferrite sheet) which is the same commercial smartphone. The proposed multi-mode WPT module can cover WPC and PMA mode based on inductive coupling. Moreover, it has more than 20 dB return loss characteristics at two different frequency bands including 6.78 MHz and 13.56 MHz, and shows more than 70 % transfer efficiency between resonant coils at 6.78 MHz in magnetic resonant charging environment.

An electro-optic polymer digital optical switch with a coupling region modified for optimum coupling is designed and demonstrated. Its branch waveguide is fabricated by reactive ion etching. Then, the modified coupling region is adiabatically introduced along the propagation direction from the branching point of the two waveguides, and it is implemented by photobleaching after the device fabrication. The structure of the modified coupling region and its refractive index profiles are designed to optimize and mode coupling in the Y-branch waveguide. Therefore, the switching performance of the device was shown to be enhanced with a fixed device length. The measured drive voltage is reduced by more than 30 percents, and the crosstalk is also improved by about 4~6 dB.

We studied an integrated-optic biosensor configuration that operates at a wavelength of 0.63 ㎛ based on the evanescent-wave and two horizontal mode power coupling of Si₃N₄ rib-optical waveguides formed on a Si/SiO₂/Si₃N₄/SiO₂ multilayer thin films. The sensor consists of a single-mode input waveguide, followed by a two-mode section which acts as the sensing region, and a Y-branch output for separating the two output waveguides. The coupling between the two propagating modes in the sensing region produces a periodically repeated optical power exchanges along the propagation. A light power was steered from one output channel to the other due to the change in the cladding layer (bio-material) refractive index, which affected the effective refractive index (phase-shift) of two modes through evanescent-wave. Waveguide analyses based on the rib optical waveguide dimensions were performed using various numerical computational software. Sensitivity values of 12~23 and 65~165 au/RIU, respectively for the width and length of 4 ㎛, and 3841.46 and 26250 ㎛ of the two-mode region corresponding to the refractive index range 1.36~1.43 and 1.398~1.41, respectively, were obtained.

This paper proposes a new design method of bandpass filter with single dual-mode resonator. In the proposed method, a coupling coefficient between two resonators was obtained by considering a dual-mode resonator as two single resonators. Based on the obtained coupling coefficient, two resonant frequencies of dual-mode resonator were calculated and then arranged according to a transmission zero's location of required filter. To verify the proposed theory, two WLAN bandpass filters which have a transmission zero to a lower and an upper stopband repectively were designed and implemented.

In this paper, we analyze the degradation of receiving sensitivity due to the coupling between digital noise and mobile handset antenna using characteristic mode. First, we analyze the coupling mechanism between the antenna and digital noise, and analyze the role of the decoupling capacitor of the ground signal line, which is one of the ways to improve the antenna receiving sensitivity degradation due to camera noise. For the analysis, the digital signal line and the ground line of the FPCB of the camera module are modeled as a loop type feeder that excites the characteristic mode of the PCB ground, and improved model which has a ground line with a capacitor are analyzed.

A phase-locked Channel-Substrate-Planar(CSP) laser arrays is described. Arrays of emitters with weak coupling are operated in a set of discrete modes determined by the number and spacing of the emitters. The interactions between emitters lead to a splitting of the wave-length and gain which are calculated from the coupling strength. Phase-locked arrays has exhibited to CW output-power as high as 80 m W and the highest order mode will have preferred oscillation. A strong hole burning is occurred at p=30m W. The most stable lasing mode is occurred at element spacing S=3.5\ulcornerm and there is no coupling at S>7 \ulcornerm.

In this paper, a dual stage servo mechanism has been developed for image tracking system to improve control performances such as small rise time, small overshoot, small settling time, small stabilization error etc. A secondary stage, a platform, actuated by a pair of electro-magnets is mounted on a conventional elevation gimbal. In this mechanism, the gimbal provides large range but slow motion and the platform provides small range but fast positioning. A sliding mode control is applied to the platform positioning to attain robust performances and stability in the presence of the disturbance related to dynamic coupling of the gimbal and the platform. Results from experiments illustrate that the suggested dual stage mechanism controlled by the sliding mode control is effective in improving responses and attenuating the disturbance response related with dynamic coupling.

This paper describes with the stator analysis and design of a ring type ultrasonic motor. The design for piezoelectric ceramic and elastic body of stator were calculated by using the finite element method (FEM) that consider the resonance frequency, vibration mode and coupling efficiency. Namely, such results were acquired the calculation result of the piezoelectric ceramic thickness 0.5[mm], elastic body thickness 2.0[mm], resonance frequency 51.8[kHz], vibration mode 7 order and coupling efficient 12.5[%], the outer and inner diameter of vibrator 50[mm], 38[m]. On the basis of such result, the ring type ultrasonic motor was manufactured. Also for driving characteristics of ring type ultrasonic motor, 2-phase inverter was constructed. Then the propriety of this paper was established from comparision of the simulation and an experiment results of the ring type ultrasonic motor.

Nowadays, the demand of energy saving is increasing more and more while the natural resources have been exhausted. Besides, the emission gas caused by vehicles has been being a serious environment problem. Therefore, many studies have been carried out, especially focusing on braking energy regeneration, in order to save energy as well as reduce emission of mobile vehicles. In this paper, we propose a closed-loop hydrostatic transmission for braking energy regeneration with two configurations to reduce the energy consumption by recovering the braking energy. The effectiveness of the proposed system was verified by simulation. The simulation results indicated that the pressure coupling configuration gave better performance in comparison to flow coupling configuration about 40.8%, 61.7% and 53.8% reduction of fuel consumption in 10 mode, 10 mode modified profile and highway schedules, respectively.

In this paper, coupled-mode theory (CMT) is used to obtain a transient solution analytically for a wireless power transfer system (WPTS) when unit energy is applied to one of two resonators. The solutions are compared with those obtained using equivalent circuit-based analysis. The time-domain CMT is accurate only when resonant coils are weakly coupled and have large quality factors, and the reason for this inaccuracy is outlined. Even though the time-domain CMT solution does not describe the WPTS behavior precisely, it is accurate enough to allow for an understanding of the mechanism of energy exchange between two resonators qualitatively. Based on the time-domain CMT solution, the critical coupling coefficient is derived and a criterion is suggested for distinguishing inductive coupling and magnetic resonance coupling of the WPTS.
