Effect of the pin radius on the radiation characteristics of a patch antenna with a pin array inserted between a patch and ground plane is investigated. As the pin radius increases, the resonant frequency increases and the radiation intensity in the horizontal plane decreases. However, the radiation intensity in the horizontal plane increases for the pin radius larger than a certain value.

Radiation characteristics of a microstrip patch antenna integrated with a UC-EBG (Uniplanar Compact Electromagnetic Bandgap) structure and a Mushroom EBG structure are compared. Radiation characteristics of a patch antenna integrated with a Mushroom EBG structure are better than those of a patch antenna integrated with a UC-EBG structure.

In this paper, we designed the microstrip patch antenna with L-shaped aperture, which greatly enhances its bandwidth. We optimized to get a maximum bandwidth. The microstrip patch antenna with L-shaped aperture has the widest bandwidth of the conventional aperture coupled microstrip patch antenna. This antenna also has the low-cross polarization level. The effects of changing several key design parameters of the antenna are investigated. We calculated the VSWR, input impedance, and radiation pattern.

In this paper, we proposed a beam tilting microstrip patch array antenna for the reception of satellite signals by using low cost copper etched polyester films and foams. The configuration and coupling mechanism of the proposed antenna are similar to the dipole Yagi-Uda antenna. It is composed of 3 layers of polyester films and three layers of foam. In order to prevent unwanted radiation and coupling loss by microstrip feeding networks and parasitic patches, a stacked layer with rectangular slots above the driver patch array is inserted. The 16${\times}$8 element microstrip Patch way antenna is Presented by experimental results. Its beam patterns are affected by many parameters such as sizes of the patches, gap between the patches. characteristics of the substrates, feeding method, etc. Owing to its complexities of various design parameters, both simulation and experiment were performed. The fabricated antenna received DBS signal from KOREASAT 3 by doing nothing but adjusting azimuth direction.

In this paper, the novel patch antenna for polarization diversity using switching element is presented. The proposed antenna consists of the square patch with a pair of truncated corners and a microstrip-feed line with power divider. A switching microstrip-line feed works at schottky diode ON / OFF that is placed at $\lambda$/4 point from branch-off point of power divider. Polarization diversity has two types(LHCP. RHCP) as switching the schottky diodes. The measured 3 ㏈ axial ratio bandwidth for switching operation is about 2 %.

Several design problems of composite structures are studied via a global optimizer based on attraction regions. MSC/NASTRAN is adopted for static and eigenvalue analysis. The method of modified feasible direction in DOT is used for local optimization. Through the review of global optimization algorithms, the triangular patch algorithm is selected because the algorithm is known to be efficient, robust and powerful for general nonlinear optimization problems. For general applicability, various mechanical properties are considered as design objectives; strain energy, eigenvalue, weight, displacement, and buckling load. In all cases considered, the triangular patch algorithm results in a lot of optimum points and useful design patterns, that are not easy by local algorithms or conventional global algorithms can be determined.

This is concerned with the radiation pattern of elastic waves in a plate generated by an orientation-adjustable patch-type magnetostrictive transducer. In general, not only the Lamb waves but also shear horizontal (SH) waves are produced by the deformation of the circular magnetostrictive patch bonded to a plate. Among the two types of waves, this paper investigates the radiation patterns of SH waves. A number of experimental results are presented. They are also accurately predicted by a theory developed by the present authors. Experimental findings were explained by a theoretical analysis.

A synergistic effect of biocontrol agent and chemicals on control of the large patch on turfgrass caused by Rhizoctonia solani AG2-2 was evaluated. Chemicals; mepronil, toclofos-methyl and iprodione inhibited 90∼100% mycelial growth of R. solani AG1 and AG2-2 in vitro. While on the other, the chemicals inhibited only 0∼5%, 18∼46% and 30∼67% of mycelial growth of the antagonists, respectively. In field application, toclofos-methyl was the best to suppress the disease in single application, however, the combination of mepronil and T. viride 41D showed highest disease control effect among combinations of antagonists and chemicals. Effect of the combination of mepronil and T. viride 41D was similar to that of toclofos-methyl and T. viride 41D stage of disease development, but became higher in six week late. Results indicated that the combined application of selected antagonistic agent and chemical increased control efficasy of turgrass large patch.

In this paper, a wideband two-layer H-shaped microstrip antenna for WLAN is designed and studied experimentally. To increase the bandwidth of microstrip patch antenna, a configuration of stacked type using parastic element is used, Furthermore, to reduce the size of microstrip patch antenna, the first technique is H-shaped patch type. the second technique is that the main radiator and parastic patch are shorted to the ground plane using ten shorting posts. The antenna bandwidth and radiation characteristics are calculated by ENSEMBLE ver. 5.0 simulation software, and compared with the experimental results, Experimental results show that the return loss is less than -10dB over the band of 5.086GHz to 5.832GHz, which is quite good agreement with the calculations.
