본 논문에서는 개구면이 큰 기존 원형 이중 모드 혼의 E/H 평면 방사 패턴 대칭성 향상을 위한 변형된 개구면을 갖는 원형 이중 모드 혼을 제안한다. 제안된 안테나는 급전부, 모드 발생부, 위상정합부로 구성되며, 이 중 위상정합부의 원형 개구면은 E/H 평면의 방사 패턴 대칭성 향상을 위해 타원형 혹은 직사각형으로 변이된 형상을 갖는다. 제안된 안테나와 기존 원형 이중 모드 혼의 성능 비교를 위해 15 GHz에서 동작하는 기존 원형 이중모드 혼과 직사각형 개구면을 갖는 원형 이중 모드 혼을 제작하고 분석하였다. 측정 결과, f/d 비가 1인 반사판 안테나의 최대 개구 효율을 위한 급전 혼의 빔 폭인 -11 dB 빔 폭($53^{\circ}$) 내에서 기존 원형 이중 모드 혼의 경우 3.394 dB의 E/H 평면 방사 패턴 차이를 갖는 반면, 제안된 안테나는 오직 0.539 dB 차이를 가진다.

In this paper, waveguide banpass filters using H-plane step discontinuities are designed based on the field theory analysis and optimization of the resonator lengths as well as dimensions of discontinuities, instead of the conventional synthesis method based on the equivalent circuit. The waveguide inductive obstacles introduced by H-plane step discontinuities analyzed using mode-matching method and the generalized scattering parameters are derived. Using the derived scattering parameters of the discontinuities as well as those of resonators, waveguide bandpass filters are designed through optimization method, modified Razor search method proposed by J.H.Bandler. Using this design procedures, waveguide bandpass filters are designed and tested at X-band(center frequency 10GHz) as well as Ka-band(center frequency 35GHz).

본 논문에서는 정방형 도파관을 이용한 커러게이트 편파기의 설계이론에 대해 제안하였다. 도파관의 불연속 경계면의 특성을 해석하고 낮은 정재파비를 얻기 위해 수정된 $TE^\chi_mn$모드 정합법과 커러게이트 지수함수를 편파기 설계에 적용하였다. 그 결과 11.7-15.8GHz 대역에서 $90^{\circ}$에 가까운 위상천이 각을 갖는 광대역 특성을 얻을 수 있었다. 특히, 11.7-12.0GHz, 14.5-14.8GHz 주파수 대역에서 위상천이 각과 최대 정재파비 및 축비가 각각 $90^{\circ},\pm1^{\circ}$, 1.03, 1.0001로 나타나 300MHz의 대역폭을 갖는 편파기를 설계할 수 있었다.

As operating frequency is raised and as more integration with active and passive elements is required, it becomes difficult to fabricate more than 120 ${\Omega}$ characteristic impedance of a mierostrip line. To solve this problem, an equivalent high impedance transmission-line section is suggested, which consists mainly of a pair of coupled-line sections with two shorts. However, it becomes a transmission-line section only when its electrical length is fixed and its coupling power is more than half. To have transmission-line characteristics(perfect matching), independently of coupling power and electrical length, two identical open stubs are added and conventional design equations of evenand odd-mode impedances are modified, based on the fact that the modified design equations have the linear combinations of conventional ones. The high impedance transmission-line section is a passive component and therefore should be perfectly matched, at least at a design center frequency. For this, two different solutions are derived for the added open stub and two types of high impedance transmission-line sections with 160 ${\Omega}$ characteristic impedance are simulated as the electrical lengths of the coupled-line sections are varied. The simulation results show that the determination of the available bandwidth location depends on which solution is chosen. As an application, branch-line hybrids with very weak coupling power are investigated, depending on where an isolated port is located, and two types of branch-line hybrids are derived for each case. To verify the derived branch-line hybrids, a microstrip branch-line hybrid with -15 dB coupling power, composed of two 90$^{\circ}$ and two 270$^{\circ}$ transmission-line sections, is fabricated on a substrate of ${\varepsilon}_r$= 3.4 and h=0.76 mm and measured. In this case, 276.7 ${\Omega}$ characteristic impedance is fabricated using the suggested high impedance transmission-line sections. The measured coupling power is -14.5 dB, isolation and matching is almost perfect at a design center frequency of 2 GHz, showing good agreement with the prediction.

Objective : The use of indocyanine green videoangiography (ICG-VA) to assess blood flow in the brain during cerebrovascular surgery has been increasing. Clinical studies on ICG-VA have predominantly focused on qualitative analysis. However, quantitative analysis numerical modelling for time profiling enables a more accurate evaluation of blood flow kinetics. In this study, we established a multiple exponential modified Gaussian (multi-EMG) model for quantitative ICG-VA to understand accurately the status of cerebral hemodynamics. Methods : We obtained clinical data of cerebral blood flow acquired the quantitative analysis ICG-VA during cerebrovascular surgery. Varied asymmetric peak functions were compared to find the most matching function form with clinical data by using a nonlinear regression algorithm. To verify the result of the nonlinear regression, the mode function was applied to various types of data. Results : The proposed multi-EMG model is well fitted to the clinical data. Because the primary parameters-growth and decay rates, and peak center and heights-of the model are characteristics of model function, they provide accurate reference values for assessing cerebral hemodynamics in various conditions. In addition, the primary parameters can be estimated on the curves with partially missed data. The accuracy of the model estimation was verified by a repeated curve fitting method using manipulation of missing data. Conclusion : The multi-EMG model can possibly serve as a universal model for cerebral hemodynamics in a comparison with other asymmetric peak functions. According to the results, the model can be helpful for clinical research assessment of cerebrovascular hemodynamics in a clinical setting.
