We have designed a three-channel output multiplexer (OMUX) using a band-pass filter and an ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna. The proposed band-pass filter is composed of an inner rectangular loop, an outer open stub, and a defected ground structure. The outer open stub can be used to control the pass band, and the inner rectangular loop can improve the insertion loss characteristics of the band-pass filter. The proposed band-pass filter, UWB antenna, and OMUX are fabricated and measured. The designed OMUX can cover the band group 1 (3,168-4,752 MHz) of WiX system. The measured radiation patterns are close to those of a conventional dipole antenna and the measured antenna gain varies from 1.8 dBi to 3 dBi over the operating frequency range.

The objective of this study is to examine the structural performance on the Rectangular Steel Tube Column-to-H Beam connections using one-side bolts and T-stub. Although a rectangular steel tube comparing with a H-shaped steel has many advantages and is more efficient, its application is limited due to the lack of experiences and connection details. Existing steel moment connections using the rectangular steel tube are mainly using through plate diaphragms. Its processing of construction is so complicated that it is hard to apply in the field. In this study, the structural performance and the earthquake capacity for T-stub connection with one-side bolts were investigated. And it is performed a comparative analysis of strength, rigidity, total rotation and energy absorption capacity for the various connection details.

In this paper, we designed detachable T-DMB receiver antenna on the windshield of the car. Designed antenna is composed of only copper and feeders. To escape completely from driver's sight, it exists edging of windshield. Proposed antenna by considering body of properties and characteristics of the antenna input impedance have T-DMB frequency band(174~216 MHz). Proposed flexible antenna with Common Mode Stub is satisfied characteristics less than -5 dB antenna input return loss regardless of installation position on windshield.

In this paper, we proposed flexible T-DMB dipole-shaped antenna that has strength of glass antenna and also has portability and ease of production. The input impedance of antenna according to vehicle body-effect was considered in order to install the antenna on the top of the front window. Installation position of on-glass antennas are changeable defends on driver, so we proposed Interdigital capacitor in feeding point to achieve matching characteristic with no position limit. The measurement result showed good return loss characteristic-below -6 dB in the T-DMB frequency band and maintained fixed resonant frequency.

To find a long term horizontal movement of superstructure caused by seasonal thermal change, several types of gages are installed such as soil earth pressuremeter behind stub abutment and jointmeter between approach slab and relief slab. As results, maximum passive earth pressure behind integral bridge abutments centerline with lateral movement of superstructure is about 1/6 of classic Rankine's earth pressure. And its distribution is not triangular but rectangular shape due to shape behind integral bridge abutments.

In this paper, characteristics of the electromagnetically coupled broadband microstrip antennas are analyzed by the Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method, and antenna para- meters are optimized to get maximum bnadwidth. By using short radial tuning stub in microstrip feedline, electromagnetically coupled microstrip antenna shows broadband ($\simeq$13%) characteristics, and the characteristics are varied as a function of radius, radial angle, and position of the radial tuning stub. Operating frequency, return loss, VSWR and input impedance are calculated by Fourier transforming the time domain results. After optimization of the parameters, maximum bandwidth of the radial stub tuning microstrip antenna is about 15% and the ripple char- acteristic of the VSWR is better than the rectangular tuning stub microstrip antenna.

The CFT columns used in thin-walled steel tubes can be more economical, because it was expected the increase of strength by restriction for the local buckling of steel tubes. The purpose of this paper is to review feasibility of existing design formula and verify the applicability limit of width-to-thickness ratio for increasing the strength of rectangular CFT columns. As the main parameters of experiments, width-to-thickness ratios of steel tube, height of rectangular concrete columns, and concrete filled or not. The strength of concrete are selected to 90MPa. From the test results, the confinement effect of steel tube on the compressive strength of infilled concrete is remarkably appeared in the thin-walled rectangular steel tube columns infilled wih high strength concrete. By the non-linear analysis, the axial strength from experiment result was given higher than analysis result for all CFT stub columns.

We propose a slot antenna consisting of a rectangular slot on the ground plane, fed by a microstrip line with a rectangular-ring-shaped tuning stub that can be deployed in ultra-wideband (UWB) communication systems to avoid interference with wireless local area network (WLAN) communication. Our antenna can achieve a single band-notched property from the 5 GHz frequency to the 6 GHz frequency owing to a controllable band notch that uses L- and J-shaped parasitic elements. The antenna characteristics can be modified to tune the band-notched property (4 GHz to 5 GHz or 6 GHz to 7 GHz) and the bandwidth of the band notch (1 GHz to 2 GHz). Furthermore, the shifted notch with enhanced width of the band notch from 1 GHz to 1.5 GHz is described in this paper. The UWB slot antenna and L- and J-shaped parasitic elements also provide the band-rejection function for reference in the WiMAX (3.5 GHz) and WLAN (5 GHz to 6 GHz) regions of the spectrum. Experiment results evidence the return loss performance, radiation patterns, and antenna gains at different operational frequencies.

Concrete-filled steel tube(CFT) columns have become popular for building construction due to not only composite effect of steel tube and infilled concrete, but also more economical. The purpose of this paper is to propose the applicable boundary formula of width-to-thickness ratio for rectangular steel tube as using CFT column. A parametric study was performed taking width-to-thickness ratio of rectangular steel tube and compressive strength of concrete as the main parameter. The strength of concrete are selected to 30, 60, 90MPa. The non-linear analysis was adopted in order to take into account the effect of concrete strength. Finally, from the test and analysis results, the effect of increasing strength according to concrete strength and width-to-thickness of steel tube and plastic behavior of specimens were verified distinctly.

A method is proposed to estimate the ultimate strength of rectangular concrete-filled steel tubular (CFT) stub columns under axial compression. The ultimate strength of concrete core is determined by using the conception of the effective lateral confining pressure and a failure criterion of concrete under true triaxial compression, which takes into account the difference between the lateral confining pressure provided by the broad faces of the steel tube and that provided by the narrow faces of the steel tube. The longitudinal steel strength of broad faces and that of the narrow faces of the steel tube are calculated respectively due to that buckling tends to occur earlier and more extensively on the broader faces. Finally, the proposed method is verified with experimental results. Corresponding values of ultimate strength calculated by ACI (2005), AISC (1999) and GJB4142-2000 are given respectively for comparison. It is found from comparison that the proposed method shows a good agreement with the experimental results.
