A MIMO antenna using the resonance of ground planes is proposed for 4G mobile application. A resonant mode is generated when the double ground planes (upper and lower) in the mobile terminal are excited as the radiator. By combining the resonant modes contributed from both the antenna element and the ground planes, the proposed MIMO antenna realizes a wideband property over LTE band 13. In addition, an inductive coil is employed to reduce the antenna volume. These approaches not only simplify antenna design but also effectively improve bandwidth and efficiency. The proposed MIMO antenna has an excellent ECC value of below 0.1 because of the nearly orthogonal radiation patterns of the two radiators. Moreover, an additional antenna is adopted to cover WiMAX, WLAN, and Bluetooth services simultaneously in frequency range from 2 GHz to 2.7 GHz.

본 논문에서는 두 개의 접지 평판 사각형 개구를 관통하는 대칭 평행 2선 전송 선로에 대하여 접지 평판 개구의 크기 변화가 전송 선로의 특성에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 이론 해석에는 상용 툴인 CST MWS를 사용하였으며, 두 개의 사각형 개구의 가로 및 세로 길이 변화에 따른 삽입 손실 특성을 계산하였다. 그 결과, 개구의 가로 길이 및 세로 길이에 따른 삽입 이득 및 삽입 손실 현상을 관찰할 수 있었으며, 접지 평판 사이의 선로 길이는 개구가 선로와 가까이 존재할 때 전체 전송 선로의 길이가 반 파장이 되는 주파수를 주기로 하여 삽입 이득 및 삽입 손실이 주기적으로 나타남을 확인할 수 있었다. 전송 선로 부하단의 삽입 손실 측정 결과를 수치 계산 결과와도 비교하여 이론 해석의 타당성을 확인하였다.

In this study, optimum locations for a loop-type ground radiation antenna are evaluated for C-shaped ground planes of two different sizes. To achieve good radiation performance, the antenna needs to be located such that it couples with the dominant current mode of the ground plane. Antenna locations are proposed using the characteristic mode analysis of the ground planes. The measured bandwidths of the antennas at the proposed locations have more than twice the bandwidths of the cases in which the antennas are coupled with non-dominant modes. The operating frequency of the antennas is 2.45 GHz.

본 논문에서는 Haar 웨이블릿 기반 MRTD(MultiRes빼lion Time-Domain)를 이용하여 다층 PCB (Printed C Circuit Board)의 전원 공급면내에서 발생할 수 있는 Ground Bounce 문제를 해석하였다. 기존의 FDTD법을 이용한 모델링에서는 PCB 전원 공급연을 구성하는 $V_{cc}$연과 접지면 사이의 좁은 간격을 표현하기 위해 수직 방향으로 매우 작은 셀이 필요하다. 이에 따라 안정 조건(Stability Con며tion)에 의한 시간간격 $\Deltat$가 매우 작아 일정 시간 동안의 응답을 관찰하기 위해 많은 수의 반복 계산(Iteration)을 수행해야 한다. 이러한 문제 에 대해 MRTD를 적용하여 수직 방향 셀 크기를 두 배로 증가시켜 해석함으로써 계산 시간을 현저하게 감 소시킬 수 있다. 또한 MRTD에 의한 결과는 FDTD법에 의한 결과 및 해석적인 해와 매우 잘 일치한다. 본 논문의 결과는 PCB 상의 EMI/EMC 문제의 해석에 있어 MRTD의 정확성과 효율성을 잘 나타낸다.

This paper proposes a theoretical analysis of hidden device detection and a design of multiband circular polarization patch array antenna for non-linear junction detector system application. A good axial ratio of circular polarization patch antenna is realized by a new approach that employs inclined slots, two rectangular grooves and a truncated ground for the conventional antenna. A good axial ratio of the 1.5 dB lower is measured by having an asymmetric gap distance between the ground planes of the coplanar waveguide feeding structure. The common ground plane of the linear array has an optimum trapezoidal slot array to reduce the mutual coupling without increasing the distance between the radiators. The higher gain of about 1 dBi is realized by using the novel common ground structure. The measured return loss, gain, and axial ratio of the proposed single radiator, as well as the proposed array antennas, showed a good agreement with the simulated results.

This paper reports on the proposed design of a low profile broadband array antenna for home repeater applications. The proposed antenna consists of $1{\times}4$ patch elements and two ground planes, one of which is slitted. By using the gap feeding method, the impedance matching of the antenna is improved by a multi-resonance phenomenon. The proposed antenna provides a wide -10 dB reflection coefficient bandwidth simultaneously covering the Global System for Mobile communications (GSM-1800), Personal Communications Service (PCS), and the Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) bands (1.67-2.32 GHz). In order to reduce the mutual coupling between adjacent patch elements, slits are embedded in the ground plane. An isolation level of -20 dB is realized over the entire operating frequency band.

This paper presents a hybrid image mode Galerkin method for the analysis of the transmission line structures suspended between infinite parallel ground planes. A Green's function that consists of numerically accelerated image mode terms is developed, which is used in boundary integral equation. Transmission lines of arbitrary cross section are analyzed using Galerkin's method. Two kinds of configurations of transmission lines are studied in sample problems.

PURPOSE: This study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of a specific functional shoe in terms of the range of motion (ROM) of ankle and foot joints during walking when compared to a standardized shoe. METHODS: Kinematic ROM data pertaining to ankle, tarsometatarsal, and metatarsophalangeal joints were collected from twenty-six healthy individuals during walking using a ten-camera motion analysis system. Kinematic ROM of each joint in three planes was obtained over ten walking trials consisting of two different shoe conditions. Visual3D motion analysis was finally used to coordinate the kinematic data. All kinematic ROM data were interpolated using a cubic spline algorithm and low-pass filtered with a cutoff frequency of 6 Hz for smoothing. RESULTS: The overall ROM of the ankle joint in the sagittal and coronal planes when wearing the specific functional shoe was significantly decreased in both ankles during walking when compared to wearing a standard shoe (p<.05). Significantly more flexibility was observed when wearing the specific functional shoe in the tarsometatarsal and metatarsophalangeal joints compared to a standard shoe (p<.05). CONCLUSION: Although clinical application of the specific functional shoe has shown clear positive effects on knee and ankle moments, the results of this study provide important background information regarding the kinematic mechanisms of these effects.

암반에 시공되는 터널은 주변지반이 자체 지보능력을 가진다. 암반에는 절리가 존재하여 전체적 인 거동이 불연속면의 거동에 의해 지배되는 경우가 많다. 본 연구에서는 모형실험과 수치해석적 방법을 통하여 절리암반에 굴착되는 터널의 거동을 연구하였다. 그 결과 균질한 지반에서 터널을 굴착할 경우 초기응력상태에 따라 터널의 거동이 달라진다. 또한 터널주위에 절리가 존재할 때 절리와 인접한 터널주변지반에서는 지반응력과 변위가 증가하였다.

In this paper, we propose a method combining an accelerometer with a cross structured light system to estimate the golf green slope. The cross-line laser provides two laser planes whose functions are computed with respect to the camera coordinate frame using a least square optimization. By capturing the projections of the cross-line laser on the golf slope in a static pose using a camera, two 3D curves’ functions are approximated as high order polynomials corresponding to the camera coordinate frame. Curves’ functions are then expressed in the world coordinate frame utilizing a rotation matrix that is estimated based on the accelerometer’s output. The curves provide some important information of the green such as the height and the slope’s angle. The curves estimation accuracy is verified via some experiments which use OptiTrack camera system as a ground-truth reference.
