The antenna array for receiving satellite broadcasting of Koreasat III is proposed. A cavity-backed slot antenna array is proposed to reduce feed line loss, increase the radiation efficiency, and make the feed network simple. A sub-array consists of $2{\times}4$ slot elements backed by a single cavity. By proper choice of dimensions it is shown that the proposed antenna has characteristics of the high radiation efficiency and the broad frequency bandwidth. Antenna characteristics for the array antenna with 256 elements are measured in Ku-band. A single cavity backed-sub-array has the gain of 18 dEi. The gam of the total antenna array(256 elements) is Over 33 dEi.

The bandwidth of microstrip slot antenna with T-shaped feed line was a wider than one of the conventional feeding structure. When the slot antenna with bi-directional radiator wants to radiate only one direction, the reflector must be set up seperately. But this antenna doesn't need set up reflector. And then we proposed to a new method of a directional slot radiator with a cross-shaped feedline including the reflector using 2-layers dielectric materials. It is calculated waves and electric field distribution in the time domain by using FDTD method. We also are calculated return loss, VSWR, input impedance, and radiation pattern in the frequency domain by Fourier transforming the time domain results, respectively. It was found that the bandwidth of this antenna changes as length($\I_s$) and width($\W_s$) of slot, length of the horizontal feedline($\I_d$), length of the vertical feedline($\I_u$) and offset sensitively. After optimizing the parameters of design, the maximum bandwidth was measured as 1,850MHz at the center frequency 2.5 GHz.

In this paper, a wideband slot antenna with corrugated structure antenna is proposed. The proposed antenna consists of a ground plane with corrugated slot and microstrip feed-line. Even with a limited dimension of $70{\times}70{\times}1.6mm$, the proposed antenna has wide bandwidth due to the longer current path formed by the corrugated slot structure. Measured bandwidth(10 dB return loss) and fractional bandwidth of the proposed antenna are 2,180 MHz(2.5~4.68 GHz) and 60.7 % at the center frequency of 3.59 GHz. The proposed antenna has an omni-directional radiation pattern and measured gains and average efficiency were 3.48~5.83 and dBi, 81.55 %, respectively.

In the present study, a more compact dual-band slot antenna is newly proposed for Wi-Fi application. The proposed antenna is composed of rectangular two stepped slot with open end which can generate standing wave resonance at dual frequency bands and L-type microstrip feed line. The measured impedance bandwidths are 50 MHz(2.412 ~ 2.470 GHz) at low frequency band and 452 MHz(5.451 ~ 5.903 GHz) at high frequency band respectiviely. Furthermore its size of 14 × 21 mm² is reduced by 30% compared to the size of 20 × 21 mm² of a conventional similar compact slot antenna. It has the omni-directional radiation pattern characteristics of a typical dipole antenna on the H-Plane, so it is suitable for commercial wireless network applications such as Wi-Fi.

In this paper, we developed a new method to transmit multiple visible light channels in time division mode using the AC power line frequency in order to prevent the crosstalk between adjacent optical signals. Synchronizing pulses are generated from the 220 V power line, and one pulse period is subdivided into several time slots for visible light channels. Each channel transmits data in a predefined time slot without interfering adjacent channels. In experiments, synchronizing pulses with a repetition rate of 240 Hz were generated from the 60 Hz power line, and three VLC channels with a bit rate of 9.6 kbps transmitted data independently using the time slots between synchronizing pulses. This configuration is very useful in constructing time division VLC networks for multiple sensors.

This paper presents a single-pole eight-throw switch, based on an eight-way power divider, using substrate integrate waveguide(SIW) technology. Eight sectorial-lines are formed by inserting radial slot-lines on the top plate of SIW power divider. Each sectorial-line can be controlled independently with high level of isolation. The switching is accomplished by altering the capacitance of the varactor on the line, which causes different input impedances to be seen at a central probe to each sectorial line. The proposed structure works as a switching circuit and an eight-way power divider depending on the bias condition. The change in resonant frequency and input impedance are estimated by adapting a tapered transmission line model. The detailed design, fabrication, and measurement are discussed.

In this paper, we have designed and favricated the high gain and wideband microstrip patch antenna including IEEE 802.11a. To widen the bandwidth of microstrip antenna, firstly we have used the microstrip line-coaxial probe feeding method and inserted a U-slot in the rectangular patch. Secondly, to improve the antenna gain, we have used a $2{\times}2$ array structure. From the measured results, wideband characteristics of 1 GHz bandwidth($5.110{\sim}6.142$ GHz) for VSWR<2 was obtained. The measured eain was 13 dBi in both the E-plane and H-plane at the frequency of 5.15 GHz, 5.35 GHz, 5.50 GHz, and 5.85 GHz.

In this paper, design of a microstrip-fed, Spidron fractal-shaped slot antenna with circular polarization is represented. The ground plane of the designed antenna has a slot that comprises seven right-angled triangle next to each other in a low. A reflector is placed at the bottom on microstrip feeding line to enhance the antenna gain. The optimized design was conducted by varying a length of the first right-angled triangle, location of feeding line, space between a substrate and a reflector. The proposed antenna was fabricated on a Taconic-RF35 substrate. The entire dimension of the fabricated antenna is $40{\times}40{\times}18.6mm^3$ and the reflector is 18.6 mm away from the ground plane. The measured gain of the fabricated antenna is 6.7 dBi at 4.3 GHz. The measured bandwidths of -10 dB reflection and 3 dB axial ratio are 41 % and 7.4 %, respectively.

A dual-mode annular ring antenna for both global positioning system(GPS) and satellite digital multimedia broad-casting(DMB) is designed. The proposed antenna consists of a coupling feed line and four slots on the annular ring patch. The gap between the feed line and the annular ring patch is used for an input impedance matching, and the slot length is used for adjusting the resonant frequency of the $TM_{21}$ mode at the DMB frequency. The antenna was fabricated and measured. The experimental results show that the antenna resonants at the GPS and DMB frequencies with suitable bandwidths, and had a broadside radiation pattern at the GPS band and a conical beam radiation pattern at the DMB band.
