This paper describes the RF(Radio Frequency) interference on the GNSS receiver due to the S-band signals transmitted from the transmitters in the Test Launch Vehicle, and analyzes the cause of the RF interference. Due to the S-band signals that have relatively high power levels compared with GNSS signals, an LNA(Low Noise Amplifier) in the active GNSS antenna was saturated, and the intermodulation signal within GNSS in-bands was produced in the LNA whenever two S-band signals were received from the GNSS antenna. For these reasons, the C/N0 of the satellite signals in the GNSS receiver was attenuated severely. The design of the LNA was changed in order to protect the RF interference due to the S-band signals and the suppression capability of the RF interference was confirmed in the new LNA through the comparison of the old LNA.

In this paper, Adjacent Channel Power Ratio (ACPR) of wireless Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (OFDM) system interconnected with Radio over Fiber (RoF) link is analyzed for broadband convergence network applications. Unlike previous results, ACPR of the total link, which is involved with Radio Frequency (RF) amplifier as well as ROF link, at 5.8 GHz in IEEE 802.11a environment is simulated and compared at both system ends.

Electron temperature and electron density were measured in a radio-frequency(rf) inductively coupled plasma using probe measurements. Measurements were made in an argon discharge for pressures from 10 to 100mTorr and input rf power from 100 to 800W. Spatial distribution Electron temperature and electron density were measured for discharge with same aspect ratio. Electron temperature and Electron density were found to depend on both pressure and power. Electron density was creased with increasing pressure, but peaked in a 70mTorr discharge. Radial distribution of the electron density was peaked in the plasma fringes. These results were compared to a simple model of inductively coupled plasmas.

There is an advantage that RFID system is better than previous bar code system in storage ability and noncontact property. But, everyone can easily receive the transmitting information by using RF signal. So, there is a problem that system security and personal privacy are threatened. In this paper, I propose RFID system that is secure against attacks like eavesdropping, replay, spoofing and location tracking and can efficiently provide mutual authentication services between reader and tag. The proposed RFID system can be used in various sections of ubiquitous computing environment.

Silicon carbide nanowires were grown by heat treatment of the films at $1200^{\circ}C$ after amorphous SiC thin films were deposited on graphite substrate by radio frequency magnetron sputtering at $600^{\circ}C$. It was confirmed that SiC nanowires with the diameter of 20-60 nm and length of about 50nm were grown from Field Emission Scanning Election Microscope (FE-SEM) and Transmission Election Microscope (TEM) observation. The diameter of nanowires was increased as heat treatment time is increased. The nanowires were identified to ${\beta}$-SiC single crystalline from X-Ray Diffraction(XRD) analysis. It was observed from this study that deposition temperature of samples was critical to the crystallization of nanowires. On the other hand, the effect of deposition time was insignificant.

A MTG (Multimode Tracking and Guidance) system is employed to compensate for the limitations of individual seekers such as RF (Radio frequency) or IIR (Imaging Infra-red) and to improve the overall tracking and guidance performance in jamming, clutter, and adverse weather environments. In the MTG system, tracking filter, data association, and data fusion methods are important elements to maximize the effectiveness of precision homing missile guidance. This paper proposes the formulation of a Kalman filter for the estimation of line-of-sight rate from seeker measurements in missiles guided by proportional navigation. Also, we suggest the HPDA (Highest Probability Data Association) and data fusion methods of the MTG system for target tracking in the adverse environments. Mont-Carlo simulation is employed to evaluate the overall tracking performance and guidance accuracy.

Indium nitride thin films were deposited by the radio-frequency reactive magnetron sputtering method. The indium target was sputtered by the mixture flow ratio of $N_2$ to Ar, 9:1. The effects of growth temperature on the structural, optical, and electrical properties of the films were investigated. With increasing the growth temperature, the crystallinity of the films was improved, and the crystalline size was increased. The energy bandgap for the film grown at $25^{\circ}C$ was 3.63 eV, and the bandgap showed an increasing tendency on the growth temperature. The carrier concentration, Hall mobility and electrical resistivity of the films depended significantly on the growth temperature and the maximum Hall mobility of $32.3\;cm^2$/Vsec was observed for the film grown at $400^{\circ}C$.

As semiconductors become finer, equipment must perform precise and accurate processes to achieve the desired wafer fabrication requirement. Radio frequency power delivery system in plasma system plays a critical role to generate the plasma, and the role of impedance matching unit is critical to terminate the reflected radio frequency power by modifying the impedance of the matching network in the plasma equipment. Impedance matching unit contains one fixed inductor and two variable vacuum capacitors whose positions are controlled two step motors. Controlling the amount of vacuum variable capacitor should be made as soon as possible when the mismatched impedance is detected. In this paper, we present the impedance matching algorithm using the phase sensor.

An SDR (Software Defined Radio) system based on general purpose computing platform has benefits of ease of software development process, high degree of software compatibility, and cost-effectiveness of general purpose processors. This paper discusses design and implementation of a dual-mode SDR system that supports both cordless phone and walkie-talky system running on Linux-based general purpose computing platform. For this purpose, we designed modulation and demodulation software on open source-based GNU radio middleware. We also designed a customized RF front-end hardware which performs frequency conversion between RF and IF. The proposed SDR system successfully exhibited its ability to operate both cordless phone and walkie-talky communication on Intel processor-based general purpose computing platform. But experience with the prototype SDR system shows that further research is required for run-time software reconfiguration and efficient integration with conventional TCP/IP protocol stacks.

When a patient takes an MRI scan, the patient has a risk of unexpected injuries due to the intensive electromagnetic (EM) field. Among the injuries, the tissue heating by the time-varying EM field is one of the main issues. Since an implanted artificial structure with a conductive material aggravates the heating effect, lots of studies have been conducted to investigate the effect around the implants. In this review article, a mechanism of RF heating around the implants and related studies are comprehensively investigated.
