In this paper, we studied the emissive electric field due to the communication signal and the noise in medium voltage power-line. There are many types of conductive noise in power-line channel, which gives rise to radiation. And if the DMT carrier signal was excited, the current by this term was added to the current by noise and, generate radiation. We calculated input impedance by means of signal input network model of medium voltage power-line channel for calculating these currents. We calculated currents by input impedance and, calculated the emissive electric field by this calculated currents. From the measurement results, we knew that the measured results are very similar to the calculated results and if the input signal power level was higher than -40 dBm, the emissive electric field exceeds FCC radiation limit level 69.5 dB$\mu$V/m.

Reconfiguration and miniaturization of antennas have become key attributes in modern wireless communication systems. Reconfiguration of radiation pattern can alleviate the problems encountered in modern wireless communication systems such as multi-path problems. Physical limitation of miniaturization also can be overcome by using a zeroth-order resonance (ZOR) antenna based on metamaterial. In order to achieve reconfiguration and miniaturization of antennas at the same time, we propose a new pattern reconfigurable zeroth-order resonance (ZOR) antenna that reconfigures the radiation patterns by varying the position and the number of unit cells comprising the antenna. The antenna is fabricated in an equilateral triangular shaped symmetrical structure to increase pattern variety. This structure can easily provide eight different radiation patterns (two omnidirectional and six monopole like patterns).

In this letter, we study the impact of single event upsets (SEUs) in space or defense electronic systems which use memory devices such as EEPROM, and SRAM. We built a microcontroller test board to measure the effects of protons on electronic devices at various radiation levels. We tested radiation hardening at beam current, and energy levels, measured the phenomenon of SEUs, and addressed possible reasons for SEUs.

It is important to test and evaluate the variation degree of ship-mounted antenna radiated power with respect to all directions in order to use more effectively antennas that installed on naval ships. The naval ship has various sensors for navigation, communication and electronic warfare, etc. And the performance of these sensors extremely depends on the various characteristics of antenna system to transmit and receive electromagnetic wave. The radiated power pattern of the antenna differs from all aspect angles of the ship because of complex superstructures. It is important to know the weak point(direction) of antenna radiation for appropriate operation. Therefore, the ARP(Antenna Radiation Pattern) of shipboard antennas is measured for the all aspect angles. The results of ARP measurement are utilized as reference for antenna arrangement of newly-built same class warship. This study also describes the development results for the ARP measurement technique, software design and test procedures to measure the radiation pattern of communication equipment antennas using the fixed test site.

In this paper, a quadrafilar antenna is designed to have a lower profile as an essential part of the size reduction technique and lower back radiation(i.e. higher forward radiation) for the S-band telemetry/telecommand(TM/TC) function of a communication satellite. Particularly, to meet the challenging requirements on the higher isolation between the TM/TC antennas and simultaneously a smaller size, the lowest back radiation and lowest cross-polarization, the optimal physical dimensions of the quadrafilar antenna are found by using the Genetic Algorithm(GA). To prove the validity of the proposed antenna design, its 3D electromagnetic analysis and measured results are compared, showing good agreement.

We designed a biconical antenna with sleeve baluns that exhibited an improved radiation pattern from 3-40 GHz. In the antenna, the edges of the ring of the upper cone are blended to a cylinder. Sleeve baluns operating at specific frequencies are connected to the antenna to minimize leakage currents on the surface of the feeding coaxial cable. The radiation pattern was improved with the sleeve baluns, and the angular 3-dB beamwidth ranged from 67.1-101.1° over 3-40 GHz, which is much broader than the 21-99° of the conventional antenna.

A new radiation scale is proposed. With empathy toward the vast majority of people who are not well versed in radiation and related matters, and thus suffering from misunderstanding that breeds unnecessary fear of radiation, the aim of proposing a new radiation scale, radiation index (RAIN), is to put the general public at ease with the concept of radiation. RAIN is defined in dimensionless numbers that relate any specific radiation dose to a properly defined reference level. As RAIN is expressed in plain numbers without an attached scientific unit, the public will feel comfortable with its friendly look, which in turn should help them understand radiation dose levels easily and allay their anxieties about radiation. The expanded awareness and proper understanding of radiation will empower the public to feel that they are not hopeless victims of radiation. The correspondence between RAIN and the specific accumulated dose is established. The equivalence will allow RAIN to serve as a common language of communication for the general public with which they can converse with radiation experts to discuss matters related to radiation safety, radiation diagnosis and therapy, nuclear accidents, and other related matters. Such fruitful dialogues will ultimately enhance public acceptance of radiation and associated technologies.

In communication systems, there are various types of microstrip antenna that can be used for many applications. This paper mainly focuses on the simple design of an inset rectangular microstrip patch antenna to operate at a frequency of 2.45 GHz for rectenna design. The study involves using an high frequency structure simulator to design the antenna dimensions and to determine its performance. This antenna is based on a thickness of 1.6 mm flame retardant 4 (FR-4) substrate having a dielectric constant of approximately 4.7, an inset feed, and a ground plane. After simulation, the antenna performance characteristics such as its return loss, voltage standing wave ratio, gain, and radiation pattern were obtained and compared with the fabricated measured antenna.

Space radiation environment for COMS is simulated by NASA AP8/AE8, JPL91 and NRL CREME models, respectively for trapped particle, solar proton and cosmic-ray. The radiation effects on electronic devices in communication payload are also estimated by using simulation results. Dose-depth curve and LET spectrum are calculated for estimating total ionizing dose(TID) effect and single event effect(SEE) respectively. Spherical sector method is applied to dose estimation at each position in the units of communication payload to consider shielding effect of platform and housing. Total ionizing dose at each position varies by 8 times through shielding effect under the same external space radiation environment.
