In this paper, IEEE 802.11 based WLAN(5.2/5.8GHz) wideband Weathercock-shaped microstrip patch antenna was designed and manufactured. The antenna has a size of $17.4{\times}17.4mm^2$ and utilized FR-4 board. The size was minimized for mobility, and Weathercock-shaped U-slot and short-pin was inserted to satisfy adequate bandwidth and double bandwidth resonance characteristics. In addition, the antenna incorporated single both-sided patch, and simulation design optimized the Weathercock-shaped, position of the U-slot and the short-pin, and the length of the patch for the measurement. The manufactured antenna achieved a bandwidth of 695MHz from 5.2~5.8GHz zone(Return loss<-10dB). Achieved a beam width of $81.13^{\circ}$ and $85.43^{\circ}$ for 3-dB beam width of H plane and E p;ane radiation pattern, there was 3.17~4.85dBi gain.

In accommodating the asymmetric traffic for future wireless multimedia services, the dynamic time division duplexing (D-TDD) scheme is considered as one of the key solutions. With the D-TDD mode, however, the inter-BS and inter-MS interference is inevitable during the cross time slot (CTS) period, and this interference seriously degrades the system performance. To mitigate such interference, we propose a region and time partitioning D-TDD architecture for OFDM systems. Each time slot in the CTS period is split into several minislots, and then each cell is divided into as many regions as the number of minislots per time slot. We then assign the minislots only to the users in its predefined corresponding region. On top of such architecture which inherently separates the interfering entities farther from each other, we design a robust time slot allocation scheme so that the inter-cell interference can be minimized. By the computer simulation, it has been verified that the proposed scheme outperforms the conventional time slot allocation methods in both the outage probability and the bandwidth efficiency.

Slot coating process, in continuous and patch modes, has been applied for the many precise coating products, e.g., flat panel displays and second batteries. However, manufacturing uniform coating products is not a trivial task at high-speed operations because various flow instabilities or defects such as leaking, bubbles, ribbing, and rivulets are frequently observed in this process. It is no wonder, therefore, that many efforts to understand the various aspects of dynamics and coating windows of this process have been made both in academia and industry. In this study, as the first topic, flow dynamics within the coating bead in slot coating process has been investigated using the one-dimensional viscocapillary model by lubrication approximation and two-dimensional model by Flow-3D software. Especially, operability windows in both 1D and 2D cases with various slot die lip designs have been successfully portrayed. Also, effects of process conditions like viscosity and coating gap size on slot coating window have been analyzed. Also, some experiments to find minimum coating thickness and coating windows have been conducted using slot die coater implemented with flow visualization device, corroborating the numerical results. As the second topic, flow dynamics of both Newtonian and Non-Newtonian fluids in patch or pattern slot coating process, which is employed in manufacturing IT products such as secondary batteries, has been investigated for the purpose of optimal process designs. As a matter of fact, the flow control in this system is more difficult than in continuous case because od its transient or time-dependent nature. The internal die and die lip designs for patterned uniform coating products have been obtained by controlling flow behaviors of coating liquids issuing from slot. Numerical simulations have been performed using Fluent and Flow-3D packages. Flow behavior and pressure distribution inside the slot die has been compared with various die internal shapes and geometries. In the coating bead region, efforts to reduce irregular coating defects in head and tail parts of one patterned coating unit have been tried by changing die lip shapes. It has been concluded that optimal die internal design gas been developed, guaranteeing uniform velocity distribution of both Newtonian and shear thinning fluids at the die exit. And also optimal die lip design has been established, providing the longer uniform coating layer thickness within one coating unit.

In Q-algorithm of EPCglobal Class-1 Gen-2 RFID system, the initial value of $Q_{fp}$, which is the slot-count parameter, is not defined in the standard. And the values of weight C, which is the parameter for incrementing or decrementing the slot-count size, are not determined. Therefore, if the number of tags is small and we let the initial $Q_{fp}$ be large, the number of empty slot will be large. On the other hand, if we let the initial $Q_{fp}$ be small in spite of many tags, almost all the slots will be collided. Also, if the reader selects an inappropriate weight, there are a lot of empty or collided slots. As a result, the performance will be declined because the frame size does not converge to the optimal point quickly during the query round. In this paper, we propose a scheme to allocate the optimal initial $Q_{fp}$ through the tag number estimation and select the weight based on the slot-count size of current query round.

Our Korean traditional cultural inheritance Bangpae Kite has the stable rectangular shield shape decorated with artistic paint or poem and a good flight performance due to the central wind hole. In this paper, to analyse the wind hole effect to kite performance we performed the wind tunnel testing of the various design factor of kite model and air flow visualization passing through the wind hole. As the result of aerodynamic analysis, we knew that the wind hole of kite displays similar function of slot system for the wing high lift device. This fact demonstrates that our ancestor understood the function of slot system and applied effectively to the development of kite flight performance.

In this paper, the effects of a metal plane on the performance of a meandered slot RFID antenna are evaluated in a real environment, and 3 metal plane cases are considered (the most likely scenarios in which metal conductive materials are placed near the tag antenna). The metal plane effects can be categorized as matching degradation and antenna gain variation. First, matching degradation due to the antenna's induced mutual impedance is experimentally investigated. In addition, the gain variation is investigated to figure out the change in the radiation characteristics. With the derived antenna parameters, the read range is calculated with the Friis transmission equation and measured to analyze the effects of a metal plane on RFID system performance. The calculated and measured read range varies from 9.3 m to 19.1 m as the distance between the RFID antenna and the metal plane changes.

The performance of a packet data multiplexer with stop­and­wait ARQ protocols under Markovian interruption is considered in this work It is assumed that the input process, into the system is Poisson process, and that the output channel is divided into a series of time slots and a data packet can be transmitted in a slot time. In this system the round­trip propagation delay is defined to be the frame time. It is modeled that the output channel can be blocked by some Markevian interruption, whose state change between the blocking and non­-blocking states is given by Markov process. The overall system has been analyzed by constructing a relationship, taking the Markovian interruption into account, about the buffer behavior between the successive frames of slots. The validity of this analytical results has been verified by computer simulation.

In this paper, a slot antenna with built-in Bazooka balun aimed for a WiBro repeater was designed and fabricated. The return loss and radiation pattern of the slot antenna were improved due to the introduced Bazooka balun. This balun brings about even radiation pattern and keeps the stabilized coverage of repeater And it is easy to unite this balun with the antenna body by providing the terminal of Bazooka balun with screw shape. H-type slot was used to reduce the size of the antenna, and the slot antenna was fabricated in the structural symmetry with respect to a feeding point to afford the omni-directional radiation pattern. The simulated results were obtained by MWS(Microwave Studio Simulator) of CST company, and the measurement on the proposed antenna was conducted in an anechoic chamber equipped with a network analyzer and a far field measurement system. The measured peak gain shows 5.75 dBi and the average gain is above -0.8 dBi. The return loss remains below -12.35 dB for all frequency bands in WiBro regarded as a good performance.
