In this paper, the total electric field antenna in the small loop and aperture plane structure to load a capacitance on transformed QMSA(Quarter-wavelength Microstrip Antenna) from MSA(Microstrip Antenna) is proposed, and the total electric field is shown that the calculated value is agreed resonably with experimental value. Itis a smalled antenna of the radiation element and ground plane with equal width. The designed and manufactured antenna can receive borth vertically and horizontally polarised waves to operating frequency of 1.5GHz; therefore this is available as a smalled antenna for wireless telephones and will be quit useful for indoor communication. Also, antenna's equivalent circuit with transmission line model is designed to find more accurate resonant frequency and is calculated return loss value. The calculated value is agreed resonably with experimental value.

This paper presents the photonic bandgap structure that has a defect mode within a broad stopband. In order to create a broad stopband, we eliminated one of periodic stopbands of PBG structure by using a quarter-wavelength transformer and cascaded another PBG structure having a center frequency corresponding to the eliminated stopband. We have demonstrated that it is a simple and effective method that can solve an overlapping problem of periodic stopband in two cascaded PBG structures.

In this paper, a symmetric QMSA(Quarter-wavelength Microstrip Antenna) loading a capacitor to spread the electric flux lines is proposed. It was found that the bandwidth of this symmetric QMSA is broader than that of the asymmetric QMSA having a right-side Parallel plate only to load a capacitor. It was also found that this antenna could receive both vertically and horizontally polarized waves at 2.13GHz, and would be useful as a small antenna for wireless telephones and for indoor communication. A transmission line circuit model of this antenna was obtained and used to compute the resonant frequency and the return loss of the antenna accurately.

A single-feed composite cavity-backed four-arm curl antenna is presented for use in global positioning systems (GPS). Its primary radiating element is fed by a vacant-quarter printed ring, which helps the antenna directly match to a $50-{\Omega}$ coaxial line and produce a good circular polarization (CP). The cavity-backed reflector is employed to improve the CP radiation characteristics in terms of 3-dB axial ratio (AR) beamwidth and minimum AR value. The optimized design with an overall size of $90{\times}90{\times}25mm^3$ ($0.4725{\lambda}_o{\times}0.4725{\lambda}_o{\times}0.13{\lambda}_o$ at 1,575 MHz) results in a ${\mid}S_{11}{\mid}<-10dB$ bandwidth of 8.66% (1,514-1,651 MHz) and a 3-dB AR bandwidth of 2.23% (1,555-1,590 MHz). The antenna radiates a widebeam right-hand circular polarization and operates with a measured radiation efficiency greater than 90% within its impedance matching bandwidth.

The objective of this study is to examine the determinants of the liquidity of 17 commercial banks listed on the Vietnamese Stock Exchanges, HOSE, HNX and UPCoM. The study uses the quarterly audited financial statements from the first quarter of 2006 to first quarter of 2020; it includes 496 observations. Data on GDP and inflation are compiled from the International Monetary Fund and the General Statistics Office of Vietnam. Once collected, the data were organized along the line of unbalanced panel data. The results show that total asset size, return on total assets, and credit growth are positively associated with the liquidity of the listed banks; whereas the interaction between the bank size and the return on total assets has a negative impact on the liquidity of commercial banks listed on the HNX, HOSE, UPCoM. In order to maintain good liquidity, commercial banks need to focus on effective credit growth, ensure a high rate of profit over total assets, and at the same time focus on developing the scale of total assets. However, the development of the size of the total assets should be noted in the balance between the total assets and the rate of return on the total assets.

This study was performed to investigate the factors affecting muscle activity and cephalometric variables according to change of head postures. For this study, 150 patients with temporomandibular disorders and 80 dental students without any signs and symptoms of temporomandibular disorders were selected as the patients group and as the normal group, respectively. Head position to body-midline in frontal plane and upper quarter posture to body plumb line in sagittal plane were observed clinically and electromyographic(EMG) activity of anterior temporalis, masseter, sternocleidomastoideus, and trapezius on clenching were recorded with $BioEMG^{(R)}$ in four head postures, which were natural head posture(NHP), forward head posture(FHP), $20^{\circ}$ upward head posture(UHP), and $20^{\circ}$ downward head posture(DHP). Cephaloradiographs were also taken in the same head postures as in EMG taking, but that was taken only in NHP for the patient group. Cephalometric variables measured were SN angle, CVT angle, atlas inclination angle, occlusal plane angle, Me-C2 angle, pharyngeal width, occiput~axis distance, area of pharyngeal space, and cervical curvature. The data were analyzed by SAS statistical program. The results of this study were as follows : 1. Between the patient and the normal group, there were significant difference in distance from plumb line to acromion, eye-tragus angle, electromyographic activity of the four muscles, and cephalometric variables of linear measurement. 2. There was no consistent pattern of correlation between upper quarter posture, EMG activity and cephalometric variables in any case without relation to cervical curvature and head position in frontal plane. 3. Sternocleidomastoid muscle only showed variation of electromyographic activty with changes of head postures, but all the muscles did show correlation with head postures. 4. All the cephalometric variables measured in this study showed difference of mean value by head posture, and CVT angle, pharyngeal width, occiput-atlas distance, and area of pharyngeal space showed correlation between these variables with change from NHP to FHP, and from NHP to UHP.

This paper describes composite cavity-backed crossed scythe-shaped dipoles with wide-beam circularly polarized (CP) radiation for use in Global Navigation Satellite Systems. Each branch of the dipole arm contains a meander line, with the end shaped like a scythe to achieve a significant reduction in the size of the radiator. For dual-band operation, each dipole arm is divided into two branches of different lengths. The dipoles are crossed through a $90^{\circ}$ phase delay line of a vacant-quarter printed ring to achieve CP radiation. The crossed dipoles are incorporated with a cavity-backed reflector to make the CP radiation unidirectional and to improve the CP radiation beamwidth. The proposed antennas have broad impedance matching and 3-dB axial ratio bandwidths, as well as right-hand CP radiation with a wide-beamwidth and high front-to-back ratio.

In this paper, a novel design of multilayer ceramic-based Transmit/Receive (T/R) switch using Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic (LTCC) technology have been presented. Compact T/R switch has been designed by transforming quarter-wave transmission line to its lumped equivalent circuit. Especially, high-Q three dimensional inductors with double strip have been proposed and incorporated. The proposed inductor has been modeled by multi-conductor coupled lines. A measured inductor quality factor (Q) of 80 and a Self-Resonance Frequency (SRF) of 6.6 GHz have been demonstrated. The inductor library has been incorporated into the design of WCDMA T/R switch.

This paper presents a design methodology for magnetically tunable X-band E-plane type waveguide filters. The proposed design is based on using of quarter wavelength transmission line for compensating the negative length transmission line of end K-inverters of E-plane type waveguide filters. The derived formulae are applied for initial design and the correction method is also provided for final design by considering the frequency dependent characteristic of K-inverters. The analysis results of E-plane pype waveguide structure loaded with ferrite slab are obtained using the edge based finite element method including higher order mode effecets. It is shown that the unilateral finline E-plane type waveguide filter as well as the bilateral finline E-plane type waveguide filter achieves the the manetically tunable characteristic. The X-band experimantal results for bilateral and unilateral finline E-plane type waveguide filters agree well with the simulated data.

In this paper, a self-tuning optimal control algorithm is proposed to retain the optimal performance of an active suspension system, when the vehicle has some time varying parameters and parameter uncertainties. We consider a 2 DOF time-varying quarter car model which has the parameter variation of sprung mass, suspension spring constant and suspension damping constant. Instead of solving algebraic riccati equation on line, we propose a neural network approach as an alternative. The optimal feedback gains obtained from the off line computation, according to parameter variations, are used as the neural network training data. When the active suspension system is on, the parameters are identified by the recursive least square method and the trained neural network controller designer finds the proper optimal feedback gains. The simulation results are represented and discussed.
