In this paper, the wireless power transfer system using the magnetic resonance was designed, analyzed by circuit analysis methode and the calculated transfer function was compared with the measured one. The self-resonant coil was made up of the commonly used capacitor which had the lumped capacitance and it enabled the stable magnetic resonance not to be affected by the circumstance. The transmission efficiency of this system was 70[%] at the 15[cm] between the transmission and receiving coil and the measured transfer function was similar to the calculated one, which means the circuit analysis methode is valid in this system. When the intermediate coils were added between the transmission and receiving coil, the transmission efficiency was increased, which produced the increase of transfer distance. In the case of the five intermediate coils adding, the 35[%] transmission efficiency was achived at the 90[cm] distance.

Wireless power transmission which can transmit the electrical power through the air is the promise technology. In this paper, the effects of wireless power transmission using magnetic resonance method have been studied on coil material, resonance frequency, and antenna type. We have found copper tube as a coil material had the better characteristics than that of enameled wire, and the optimal resonance frequency was 13.6MHz in the range of from 1MHz to 20MHz. And the double square spiral type antenna as a load coil was the best. The power transmission distance by magnetic resonance method with 13.6MHz was 150 cm.

3-코일 자기공진방식 무선전력전송 시스템을 등가회로 모델로 해석하여 시스템의 |S21|을 3개 코일의 Q와 송신코일과 중계코일, 중계코일과 수신코일의 커플링 계수 k의 수식으로 표현하였다. 유도된 수식으로부터 중계코일이 송신코일과 수신코일의 중앙에 위치할 때 최대 이득을 얻을 수 있음을 수식으로 제시하고 실험으로 그 결과가 타당함을 보였다. 송신코일과 수신코일의 거리가 30 cm이고 두 코일이 정렬되었으며 중계코일이 두 개의 코일 중앙에 위치하였을 때 9 %의 최대 효율을 얻었다. 송신코일과 수신코일이 비 정렬된 경우는 정렬된 경우에 비하여 효율이 떨어지나, 중계코일을 회전시키면 효율이 크게 증가하는 것을 실험으로 보였다. 전기자동차의 무선충전 시 송신코일과 수신코일이 비 정렬되면 효율이 정렬 시와 비교해 많이 감소할 것으로 예상되며, 이런 경우 중계코일을 사용하고 중계코일을 회전시킴으로써 효율을 높일 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

목적： We has proposed a surface coil which has improved SNR compared with the standard head coil. Usually, a cylindrical head coil provide good homogeneity but less SNR than surface coil. A surface coil has better SNR at the expense of image homogeneity. In this paper, a surface coil of transmit-receive mode offers a better SNR as compared with a head coil.

The performance of radio frequency (RF) coils, used in MRI units, is determined by the image uniformity and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Birdcage and surface coils are commonly used. A birdcage coil provides a good image uniformity while a surface coil produces a high SNR. In this study, therefore, a staircase coil was designed from a standard version of a birdcage coil, with some structural changes to increase SNR while maintaining image uniformity. In phantom experiments, the improvement of the image to uniformity and the SNR increase of the staircase coil compared with the values for the birdcage coil were about 3.5% and 35%, respectively. In clinical experiment, the SNR increase of the staircase coil, compared with the value for the birdcage coil was about 40% in bone, muscle and blood-vessel tissues. These results show that the performance of the staircase coil was very improved over the standard birdcage coil in terms of SNR, and that image uniformity was maintained. Therefore, the staircase coil designed by this study should be useful in experimental and clinical l.5T MRI systems, and this coil offers an alternative method of quadrature detection.

In this paper, we analyzed the efficiency of magnetic resonance wireless power transmission (WPT) using superconductor coil according to the changing position of transmission and receiving coils. We implemented a WPT system using a magnetic resonance at a frequency of 63.1 kHz. Transmission and receiving coils using superconductor coil were wound on a spiral manner of diameter 100mm. For comparison, transmission and receiving coils using normal conductor coil were designed under the same condition. At a distance of 50mm, we measured efficiency when transmission-receiving coils were matched 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%. When a superconductor coil was applied to the transmission and receiving units, efficiency of WPT was very high. In addition, in the case of the superconducting transmission-receiving coils, when coils matched 100% the efficiency was 30% and matched 25% the efficiency was 8%.

We describe quadrature type surface coil for functional magnetic resonance imaging at 3T MRI system. The coil consisted of two coplanar resonators and was used as both transmitter and receiver. The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the coil was compared with that of a standard birdcage head coil. Visual cortex activation on normal subjects using LED flicker was performed. The SNR of surface coil was found to be better than that of the conventional head coil.

'Coil' occupies very much important position in delivering driving force of optical pick-up actuators. Up to now the main stream has been a winding coil type actuator, but actuators using FP-Coil(fine pattern coil) have been considered for the more compacted and simple manufacturing process and have variously spreaded the application fields by product. We have tried to design actuators using PCB-Coil(printed circuit board coil) which has benefits in terms of price and manufacturing process. Especially this research has two main things to reduce the vibration of sub-resonance and to assure the DC sensitivity among the performances of asymmetric optical pick-up actuator with PCB-Coil.

The objective of this study was to describe a radiofrequency (RF) coil design for in vivo sodium magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for use in small animals. Accumulating evidence has indicated the importance and potential of sodium imaging with improved magnet strength (> 7T), faster gradient, better hardware, multi-nucleus imaging methods, and optimal coil design for patient and animal studies. Thus, we developed a saddle-shaped sodium volume coil with a diameter/length of 30/30 mm. To evaluate the efficiency of this coil, bench-level measurement was performed. Unloaded Q value, loaded Q value, and ratio of these two values were estimated to be 352.8, 211.18, and 1.67, respectively. Thereafter, in vivo acquisition of sodium images was performed using normal mice (12 weeks old; n = 5) with a two-dimensional gradient echo sequence and minimized echo time to increase spatial resolution of images. Sodium signal-to-noise ratio in mouse kidneys (renal cortex, medulla, and pelvis) was measured. We successfully acquired sodium MR images of the mouse kidney with high spatial resolution (approximately 0.625 mm) through a combination of sodium-proton coils.

We design a crisscrossed double-layer birdcage (DLBC) coil by modifying the coil geometry of a standard single-layer BC (SLBC) coil to enhance the homogeneity of transmitting magnetic flux density ($B_1{^+}$) along the main magnetic field ($B_0$)-direction for small-animal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at 300 MHz. The performance assessment of the crisscrossed DLBC coil is conducted by computational analysis with the finite-difference time domain method (FDTD) and compared with SLBC coil in terms of the $B_1$ and the $B_1{^+}$ distribution. As per the computational calculation studies, the mean value in the two-dimensional $B_1{^+}$ map obtained at the mid-axial slice with the proposed DLBC coil is slightly lower than that obtained with the SLBC coil, but the $B_1{^+}$ value of the DLBC coil in the outermost plane (40 mm away from the central plane) shows improvements of 19.3% and 24.8% over the SLBC coil $B_1{^+}$ value when simulating a spherical phantom and realistic mouse body modeling. These simulation results indicate that, the $B_1{^+}$ homogeneity along the z-direction was improved by using DLBC configuration. Our approach enables $B_1{^+}$ homogeneity improvement along the zdirection, and it can also be applied to ultra-high field (UHF) MRI systems.
