본 논문에서는 무선전력전송용 전 방향 빔 조향 직교 공진기를 제안하였다. 전 방향 빔 조향 직교 공진기는 2개의 루프를 수직으로 교차하여 이들의 연결 관계를 스위치로 제어하는 방식이다. 스위치의 연결 방식에 따라 루프에 흐르는 전류의 방향이 결정되고, 그에 따라 빔 조향 방향이 결정된다. 수직으로 교차한 공진기의 전류와 그에 따라 형성되는 자기장의 벡터 합의 원리를 이용하여 대각선 방향으로의 빔 조향을 실현하였다. 4개의 스위치 mode를 통해서 총 8개 방향으로 빔 조향이 가능하다. 적합한 스위치 mode를 사용하여 전 방향에 대한 전송 효율을 구하면 시뮬레이션과 측정 결과가 각각 56.3~60.0 %(편차 3.7 %), 41.2~48.7 %(편차 7.5 %)으로 비교적 전 방향에 대해 균일한 전송 효율을 얻을 수 있다.

A new feeding method for the circular polarization (CP) dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) is proposed in this letter. Two orthogonal modes (${TE^x}_{{\delta}11}$, ${TE^y}_{1{\delta}1$) of the rectangular DRA are excited by a $90^{\circ}$ phase difference of the differential and common modes currents of the proposed feeding structure. To demonstrate the good CP performance of the proposed method, a right-hand CP DRA for a global positioning system was designed. The impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna for $S_{11}$ < -10 dB and 3 dB axial ratio bandwidth are about 5.4% and 1.95% at 1.57 GHz, respectively.

In this study, we designed, measured, and analyzed a rearranged L-shape magnetic resonance coupling wireless power transfer (MR-WPT) system for practical applications with laptops. The typical four resonator MR-WPT (Tx part: source loop and Tx coil; Rx part: Rx coil and load loop) is difficult to apply to small-sized stationary and mobile applications, such as laptop computers, tablet-PCs, and smartphones, owing to the large volume of the Rx part and the spatial restrictions of the Tx and Rx coils. Therefore, an L-shape structure, which is the orthogonal arrangement of the Tx and Rx parts, is proposed for indoor environment applications, such as at an L-shaped wall or desk. The relatively large Tx part and Rx coil can be installed in the wall and the desk, respectively, while the load loop is embedded in the small stationary or mobile devices. The transfer efficiency (TE) of the proposed system was measured according to the transfer distance (TD) and the misaligned locations of the load loop. In addition, we measured the TE in the active/non-active state and monitor-open/closed state of the laptop computer. The overall highest TE of the L-shape MR-WPT was 61.43% at 45 cm TD, and the TE decreased to 27.9% in the active and monitor-open state of the laptop computer. The conductive ground plane has a much higher impact on the performance when compared to the impact of the active/non-active states. We verified the characteristics and practical benefits of the proposed L-shape MR-WPT compared to the typical MR-WPT for applications to L-shaped corners.
