The objective of this study was to implement an in vitro exposure system for 28 GHz to investigate the biological effects of fifth-generation (5G) communication. A signal source of 28 GHz for 5G millimeter-wave (MMW) deployment was developed, followed by a variable attenuator for antenna input power control. A power amplifier was also customized to ensure a maximum output power of 10 W for high-power 28-GHz exposure. A 3-dB uniformity over the 80 mm × 80 mm area that corresponds to four Petri dishes of three-dimensional cell cultures can be obtained using a customized choke-ring-type antenna. An infrared camera is employed for temperature regulation during exposure by adjusting the airflow cooling rate via real-time feedback to the incubator. The reported measurement results confirm that the input power control, uniformity, and temperature regulation for 28-GHz exposure were successfully accomplished, indicating the possibility of a wide application of the implemented in vitro exposure system in the fields of various MMW dose-response studies.

This paper proposes a plan to improve the reception radio environment of the mobile terminal and maintain a constant reception electric field by using small cells in a small closed environment. In order to configure an efficient communication infrastructure for small cells, both ends of wireless transmission and reception of an Ethernet-based wireless video recording system are connected using an L2 switch. The small cell connected to the receiving side L2 switch shares the wireless network section of the wireless video recording system and connects to the transmitting side L2 switch. After that, when it is normally linked to FMS, a management system for small cells, through the Internet network, the output of small cells is checked. In order to verify the results, a proposed network is formed on the elevator inside the building with a poor radio wave environment, and the radio wave environment is measured before and after the small cell application in the section where the elevator operates. As a result, the main parameters of the radio wave environment in all sections of the elevator are improved, as well as a constant receiving electric field strength within the moving elevator.

In this paper, design and Implementation of single antenna RFID Shelf for FIFO management of marine materials, and propose a design as one effective solution of the problem. The goals of the proposed design and system are as follows: cost saving, RFID data validation. Cost problem occurs by the use of many RFID readers. Data problems in the steel structure is generated by the use of radio wave (RFID). In addition, material data from RFID Shelf system, is expected to be used FIFO design information for the vessel information system. Through the proposed RFID Shelf System, it is expected to systematic management and efficient business processes for the vessel information system.

At present, TICN has been developed and distributed for military command control. TICN is known as the 3.5G mobile communication technology based on WiBro, which shows technical limitation in the field operation situation. Accordingly, the drone-type base station platform is attracting attention as an alternative to overcome technical limitations such as difficulty in securing communication LoS and limiting expeditious network configuration. In this study, we performed simulation performance evaluation of drone-type base station operation in 28 GHz that is considered most suitable for cellular communication within mmWave frequency band. Specifically, we analyzed the changes in throughput and fairness performance according to radio resource management policies such as frequency reuse and scheduling in multi-cell topology. Through this, we tried to provide insights on the operation philosophy on drone-type base station.

If temperature management is required in factory or environmental monitoring, temperature can be measured by connecting various sensors wired or wirelessly. Surface acoustic wave sensors measure temperature using changes in acoustic waves on the sensor surface according to temperature, and are useful for wireless networks. In this paper, in order to build a wireless temperature measurement system in the 900 MHz frequency band, the temperature characteristics of the passive SAW sensor were measured, and the analysis and removal of multipath reflection wave effect inside the high temperature chamber were conducted. The resonant frequency of the SAW sensor was measured, and radio transmission/reception and multipath reflected wave removal techniques were proposed in the shielded chamber.

In the modern era, radio wave analysis is necessary for various fields of engineering, and interpretation of this is also indispensable. Self-driving cars need multiple different electronic components, and thus accurate and fast electromagnetic simulator for this kind of complex radio environment is required for self-driving simulations. Accordingly, the demand for self-driving simulators as well as existing electromagnetic analysis software has increased. This paper briefly describes the characteristics of numerical analysis techniques for electromagnetic analysis, self-driving simulation software, and conventional electromagnetic simulation software and also summarizes the characteristics of each software. Finally, the verification of the result from in-house code compared to HFSS is demonstrated.

In this paper, we proposed a miniaturized folded inverted F antenna with ISM-band (center frequency : 447 MHz) for mounting in intelligent parking sensor. First, to mount the antenna in the intelligent parking sensor module (72 mm × 70 mm) with limited size, a folded inverted F antenna was designed at low frequency 447 MHz (wavelength λ : 670 mm) of the ISM-band. As a result, it resonates in the ISM band and obtains suitable characteristic with a -10 dB bandwidth of 13 MHz (2.9%). In addition, the H-plane pattern by the vertical and horizontal elements represents the omni-directional patterns from which the null point is removed, and the E-plane has directivity in a specific direction. Finally, it is suitable as and antenna for vehicle management in parking lots.

Demands for systemized management of workers' safety systemically in construction sites have been increased. Industrial accidents at work places are often happened by risk factors of construction sites, and also it brings a lot of loss as the correct direction for workers about locations to work is not delivered properly. In this paper, a safety supervision system for construction sites is designed and implemented to figure out the location of workers accurately and to provide the information about the status of works and workers in real-time by personal device which is based on RFID. The system designed in this paper achieved high performance in its function and efficiency through a performance test, compared with existing analogous systems.

5G AgiLe and fLexible integration of SaTellite And cellulaR (5G-ALLSTAR) is a Korea-Europe (KR-EU) collaborative project for developing multi-connectivity (MC) technologies that integrate cellular and satellite networks to provide seamless, reliable, and ubiquitous broadband communication services and improve service continuity for 5G and beyond. The main scope of this project entails the prototype development of a millimeter-wave 5G New Radio (NR)-based cellular system, an investigation of the feasibility of an NR-based satellite system and its integration with cellular systems, and a study of spectrum sharing and interference management techniques for MC. This article reviews recent research activities and presents preliminary results and a plan for the proof of concept (PoC) of three representative use cases (UCs) and one joint KR-EU UC. The feasibility of each UC and superiority of the developed technologies will be validated with key performance indicators using corresponding PoC platforms. The final achievements of the project are expected to eventually contribute to the technical evolution of 5G, which will pave the road for next-generation communications.
