We propose a folded monopole antenna with loads, and analyze the roles of design parameters which affect the return loss of the proposed antenna. VSWR < 3 bandwidth of the antenna is 30 ~ 2000 MHz, ranging from the HF/VHF/UHF bands. For operating travelling antenna, we connect six loads at the end of the antenna. The reflected wave is drastically reduced due to the six loads. For improved return loss properties, we use Klopfenstein tape that determine positions and values of six loads. The propose antenna has omni-directional radiational patterns like that of conventional monopole antennas. For wideband impedance transformation, we use the balun which operating frequency region is 10 ~ 1900 MHz. We expect the proposed antenna has important role for the wideband and multi-rold multi-functional communication systems.

In this paper, two dualband internal antennas for GPS/PCS handset are proposed. At first, the monopole antenna with parasitic dipole element is designed to print PCB of handset directly. At second, the antenna with bended loop structure is designed to bend to use internal space of handset maximumly. The proposed dualband internal antennas provide a 2:1 VSWR bandwidth of over 19.1 % which are possible to cover two bands at once. the antennas have a gain between -0.4 and 3.33 ㏈i at all bands and they have almost omni-directional patterns.

In this paper, the cross monopole antenna with branch element is presented and its radiation characteristics are investigated. To confirm the broadband characteristics of the proposed antenna, the experimental antenna is designed, fabricated, and its radiation characteristics are measured in PCS, WCDMA, WiBro and S-DMB band(1.750~2.655 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 over 1.9 dBi in 1.72~2.82 GHz. From these results, the presented antenna is conformed as a broadband antenna which can be used for PCS, WCDMA, WiBro and S-DMB band.

This paper dealt with the radiated electromagnetic wave detection of partial discharge (PD) in oil for insulation diagnostics of oil-immersed transformers. Three types of electrode system were fabricated to simulate the insulation defects that could occur in oil-immersed transformers. Frequency components of radiated electromagnetic wave in oil was measured by broadband bi-conical antennas of 300 MHz~2 GHz and a spectrum analyzer of 9 kHz~3 GHz. Frequency component of electromagnetic waves from PD in oil were highly distributed at 500 MHz. From the result, a narrow-band monopole antenna with the center frequency of 500 MHz was fabricated. We could detect PD signal in insulation oil without an influence of external noise by a measurement system which consists of the prototype monopole antenna, a LNA (Low Noise Amplifier), an oscilloscope and a spectrum analyzer.

An implantable CPW fed monopole antenna embedded into human tissue is proposed for ISM band biomedical applications. The proposed antenna is made compatible for implantation by embedding it in an alumina ceramic substrate (${\Box}_r=9.8$ and thickness=0.65 mm). The proposed antenna covers the ISM band of 2.45 GHz. The radiation parameters, such as return loss, E-Plane, H-Plane, are measured and analyzed, using the method of moments. The proposed antenna has substantial merits over other implanted antennas, like low profile, miniaturization, lower return loss, and better impedance matching and high gain.

This paper has been studied a calibration techniques for monopole antenna in the frequency range 150 KHz to 30 MHz. The long wavelength associated with the low frequency, methods used to calibrate or characterize antennas at higher frequencies are not applicable. The equivalent capacitance substitution method uses a dummy antenna in place of the actual rod element See figure 1. for guidance in making a dummy antenna. Set up the matching network to be characterized and the measuring equipment as shown in Figure 2. Subtract the measured output of the matching network from the measured output of the signal generator and subtract -6 dB(for the 1 m rod). Measurements made at a sufficient number of frequencies number of frequencies to obtain a smooth curve of antenna factor.(fig 5.)

A rectangular loop antenna for S-band radar is proposed. The proposed loop antenna is the modified type of folded monopole antenna. The feeding line is coplanar stripline with $180^{\circ}$ phase difference for operating in odd mode. The proposed antenna showed return loss of -15.57dB at the center frequency and bandwidth of about 790MHz (> 25%) under the condition of VSWR < 2. The gains of single, 1x2, and 1x4 array loop antennas are 4.3, 7.0, and 10.2dBi, respectively.

This paper dealt with the measurement and analysis of electromagnetic waves generated by partial discharges in insulation oil to develop insulation diagnostic techniques for power transformer. Two types of narrow-band monopole antennas with the resonant frequency of 500 MHz and 1 GHz were designed and fabricated. We simulated defects which consist of a needle electrode with curvature radius of 10 ${\mu}m$ and a plane electrode with diameter of 60 mm in insulation oil. From the experiment, the maximum output voltage of the fabricated antennas was measured; 620 $mV_{max}$ for 500 MHz resonant frequency and 920 $mV_{max}$ for 1 GHz resonant frequency.

The majority of problems to which FDTD is being applied involve open structure which require the appropriate scheme to terminate the computational domain. In particular, for the propagation problem of the outgoing waves, a certain type of boundary condition needs to be applied on outer boundaries of the computational domain to generate no reflected waves. In this paper, a new simple technique is presented, which allows the reduced computation time and excellent absorbing characteristics for normal and oblique incident waves on outer boundaries. To illustrate the validity of this method, a numerical calculation for monopole antenna is carried out and the results are compared to measured data. The time-domain properties for circular patch antennas are investicated.
