In this paper, a microstrip-fed multiband monopole antenna for GPS(Global positioning system)/WiMAX(:Worldwide interoperability for microwave access)/WLAN(Wireless Local Area Networks) for applications was designed, fabricated and measured. The proposed antenna is based on a microstrip-fed structure, and composed of two rectangular double rings and L strips pair and then designed in order to get triple band characteristics. To obtain the optimized parameters, we used the simulator, Ansoft's High Frequency Structure Simulator(HFSS). The proposed antenna is made of $27.0{\times}54.0{\times}1.0mm3$ and is fabricated on the permittivity 4.4 FR-4 substrate. The experiment results shown that the proposed antenna obtained the -10 dB impedance bandwidth 300 MHz (1.325~1.625 GHz), 400 MHz (2.275~2.675 GHz), and 600 MHz (3.15~3.75 GHz) covering the GPS/WiMAX/WLAN bands. Also, the proposed antenna measured gain and radiation patterns characteristics for required operating bands.

In this paper, we studied the RF characteristics of a voltage-controlled artificial transmission line employing periodically arrayed diodes for application to highly miniaturized wireless communication systems on an MMIC (monolithic microwave integrated circuit). According to the results, the novel voltage-controlled artificial transmission line employing periodically arrayed diodes exhibited a short wave length, which was only 35.2% that of the conventional transmission line, owing to increasing capacitance. In addition, it's effective permittivity and effective propagation constant exhibited considerably higher values than those of the conventional transmission line. Furthermore, attenuation constant of the voltage-controlled artificial transmission line was far higher than that of the conventional transmission line. Using the closed-form equation, we theoretically analyzed the equivalent circuit of the voltage-controlled artificial transmission line.

In this paper, objective functions are defined for optimization of radar absorbing structures (RAS) on the aircraft wing leading edge. RAS is regarded as a single layer structure made of dielectrics. Design variables are the real and imaginary parts of complex permittivity. Reflection coefficient(RC) and radar cross section(RCS) are used in the objective function respectively. Transmission line theory is employed to calculate the RC. The RCS is evaluated by using physical optics(PO) for a leading edge part model. Genetic algorithm(GA) is used to perform optimization procedures. The radar absorbing performance of designed RAS is assessed by the RCS of a wing which has RAS on the leading edge.

High power pulse generating technology is to accumulate the energy for relatively long and then to create a strong force by emitting the energy very fast. High power pulse generating technology has recently been using in various fields like environments, industry, research, military and so on. Numerous studies about high power pulse generators have already been performed and commercialized in various conditions. However, in aspect of their size and weight, it is hard to carry the generators which currently have been developed. For these reasons, din nations like America or Russia, the researches have been performed for Ferroelectric Generators(FEG), which have relatively simple structure and are economical. To realize the ferroelectric generator, in this study, we selected the PZTs which have different physical properties respectively, and then shocked them using explosives. The PZT samples with volumes of $0.31{\sim}0.94cm^3$ were depolarized by shocked and produced the waveform that have peak voltages of 4.28 ~ 15kV. The lowest relative permittivity sample generated much higher peak voltage. And sudden voltage drops which seem to be caused by dielectric breakdown were observed in some experiments using low young's modulus samples. Also, increase in thickness led to increase in peak voltage, but the ratio of the voltage rise did not reach the ration of the thickness increase.

In this paper, the EM wave absorber was designed and fabricated for preventing Reader Interference of RFID communication system in UHF band We fabricated several samples in different composition ratios of Amorphous and CPE(Chlorinated Polyethylene). Absorption abilities were simulated in accordance with different thicknesses of the prepared absorbers and changed complex relative permittivity and permeability due to composition ratio. The mixing ratio of Amorphous and CPE was searched as 80 : 20 wt.% by experiments and simulation. Then the EM wave absorber was fabricated and tested using the simulated data. As a result, the developed EM wave absorber has a thickness of 4 mm and absorption ability was over 20 dB in frequency range of $860\;MHz{\sim}960\;MHz$. Therefore, it was confirmed that the developed absorber can be used for suppressing RFID reader interference in UHF band.

In this study, we investigated structural, electrical characteristics and studied the conditions which improved hydrostatic constants in hydrophones as we changed x = 0.1, 0.25, 0.35, 0.4 and y = 0.04, 0.08, 0.12, 0.16 in $(Pb_{1-x}Ca_x)[(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_yTi_{1-0.01}Mn_{0.01}]O_3$ ceramics in which Ca was substituted with Pb and $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ was added to decrease sintering temperature in $PbTiO_3$. When Ca was substituted 0.25[mol], the largest electro-mechanical anisotropy ($k_t/k_p$) was found ($k_t{\fallingdotseq}50,k_p{\fallingdotseq}4$), and the less $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ and the stronger poling field, the larger this anisotropy was. When Ca=0.25[mol], $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3=0.08[mol]$ were substituted, ($k_t/k_p$)(=12, 3) was large, permittivity was low and hydrostatic constants were high. Therefore, this composition is promising as wide band ultrasonic devices in water.

In the last decade it has been witnessed significant developments in the area of nano particles and nano scale fillers on electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties of polymeric materials such as resins, varnishes, enamel and bakelites. The electric and thermal properties were more important in the electrical equipments for both steady state and transient state conditions. This paper deals with the characterization of the electric and thermal properties of the pure varnish and zirconia (ZrO₂) filler mixed varnish. The electric properties such as dielectric loss (tan δ), dielectric constant (ε), dielectric strength and partial discharge voltage were analyzed and detailed for different samples. It was observed that zirconia nano filler mixed varnish has the superior dielectric and thermal properties when compared to those of standard varnish. It has shown that at power frequency the 1wt% nano composite sample has the higher permittivity value when compared to other samples. It has been examined that the 1wt% sample was having higher inception and extinction voltages when compared to other samples. It has been observed that 1wt% sample has higher dielectric strength when compared with other samples. There has been an improvement of thermal property by adding few weight percent of zirconia nano fillers. There was not much variation in glass transition among the nano mixed composites. The weight loss was improved at 1wt% of the zirconia nano fillers.

In this paper, thin films of Polyimide (PI) were fabricated by vapor deposition polymerization method (VDPM) of dry processes. The film's properties with curing temperature and electrical properties were studies. The synthesis of hexafluoroisopropyliden-2,2-bis[phthalic anhydride](6FDA) and 4, 4'-diamino diphenyl ether (DDE) was carried out by vapor deposition polymerization(VDP) with the same deposition rate. The evaporation temperature of 6FDA and DDE were $214^{\circ}C$ and $137^{\circ}C$, respectively, so as to preserve balance of stoichiometry. The polymic acid (PAA) made by VDPM were changed to PI by thermal curing. The uniformity and density of PI thin films were increased according to increasing curing temperature. The relative permittivity and dissipation loss factor were 3.7 and 0.008 at the frequency of 100Hz~200KHz, respectively, for the fabricated in the curing temperature of $300^{\circ}C$. Also, the resistivity was about 1.05$\times$$ 10^{15}$$\Omega$cm at $30^{\circ}C$.

The accelerated thermal ageing of CSPE (chlorosulfonated polyethylene) was carried out for 16.82, 50.45, and 84.09 days at $110^{\circ}C$, equivalent to 20, 60, and 100 years of ageing at $50^{\circ}C$ in nuclear power plants, respectively. As the accelerated thermally aged years increase, the insulation resistance and resistivity of the CSPE decrease, and the capacitance, relative permittivity and dissipation factor of those increase at the measured frequency, respectively. As the accelerated thermally aged years and the measured frequency increase, the phase degree of response voltage vs excitation voltage of the CSPE increase but the phase degree of response current vs excitation voltage decrease, respectively. As the accelerated thermally aged years increase, the apparent density, glass transition temperature and the melting temperature of the CSPE increase but the percent elongation and % crystallinity decrease, respectively. The differential temperatures of those are $0.013-0.037^{\circ}C$ and, $0.034-0.061^{\circ}C$ after the AC and DC voltages are applied to CSPE-0y and CSPE-20y, respectively; the differential temperatures of those are $0.011-0.038^{\circ}C$ and $0.002-0.028^{\circ}C$ after the AC and DC voltages are applied to CSPE-60y and CSPE-100y, respectively. The variations in temperature for the AC voltage are higher than those for the DC voltage when an AC voltage is applied to CSPE. It is found that the dielectric loss owing to the dissipation factor($tan{\delta}$) is related to the electric dipole conduction current. It is ascertained that the ionic (electron or hole) leakage current is increased by the partial separation of the branch chain of CSPE polymer as a result of thermal stress due to accelerated thermal ageing.
