This paper presents an analysis of impulse dispersion for impulse radio ultra-wide band(IR-UWB) antenna. A set of antenna structure configurations are highlighted with verification based on the STFT(Short Time Fourier Transform) in 3.1~5.1 GHz: first, a taper-slotted antenna allowing the optimal impulse transmission, and second, 4 types of the omni-directional IR-UWB antenna using different feed structures(microstrip line, and CPW(Coplanar Waveguide)). The proposed STFT allows the analysis of the IR-UWB antenna's dispersion characteristic.

가스절연개폐장치(Gas-Insulated Switchgear, GIS) 내부에서 발생하는 부분방전(Partial Discharge, PD) 신호는 1ns이하의 상승시간(rising time)을 가지므로, 이 신호를 효과적으로 측정하기 위해서는 초광대역(Ultra Wide Band, UWB)특성을 갖는 커플러가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 UWB 특성을 구현하기 위해, 대수주기 톱니형 평면 안테나(log-periodic toothed planar antenna)와 등각 스파이럴 패치안테나(equi-angular spiral patch antenna)형태의 두 가지 초광대역 UHF 커플러를 설계 제작하였다. 제작한 커플러들의 특성을 파악하기 위해 안테나의 급전부에, 자체 설계한 매칭 회로인 발룬(balun, balance to unbalance)을 장착하여, 반사계수, 모의펄스에 의한 검출신호, 스펙트럼 둥을 측정하였다.

The phenomenon of PD(Partial Discharge) is accompanied by electromagnetic wave which can be detected by UHF(Ultra High Frequency) antenna. The signals obtaining from UHF antenna are very high rapid pulse and have wide band frequency responses. The distribution of PRPD(Phase Resolved Partial Discharge) which consisted of those pulse train can show distinct characteristics of PD sources. But it is not sufficient to discriminate among PD sources. This paper suggests that the stochastic parameters formed by preprocessing of STFT(Short Time Fourier Transform) are good tools for differentiate from PD sources. The stochastic parameters are CC(Cross Correlation) mean value, CC standard deviation, CC skewness, CC kurtosis.

An ultra high frequency (UHF) coupler possessing ultra wide band (UWB) characteristics ranging from hundreds of MHz to several GHz is desirable for the detection of the partial discharge (PD) pulses because the pulses propagate with rise time shorter than one nanosecond in a gas-insulated substation (GIS). Thus, the authors have proposed a log-periodic antenna for GIS PD detection. Various parameters of the coupler such as frequency bandwidth, coupler gain, radiation pattern, and coupler geometry were considered throughout the simulations. The experiments for the detection characteristics of the coupler were carried out in the mock-up GIS chamber. The results indicated that the detection characteristics of the coupler are dependent on the installation angle of the coupler, the position of the coupler in the hand hole and the existence of the spacer.

In this paper, Antenna, LNA, Mixer, VCO, and Modulation/Demodulation in Baseband processor which are the RF main components in Wireless LAN system for ultra high-speed communications network are studied. Antenna bandwidth and selective fading due to multipath can be major obstacles in high speed digital communications. To solve this problem, wide band MSA which has loop-structure magnetic antenna characteristics is designed. Distributed mixer using dual-gate GaAs MESFET can achieve over 10dB LO/RF isolation without hybrid, and minimize circuit size. As linear mixing signal is produced, distortions can be decreased at baseband signals. Conversion gain is achieved by mixing and amplification simultaneously. Mixer is designed to have wide band characteristics using distributed amplifier. In VCO design, Oscillator design method by large signal analysis is used to produce stable signal. Modulation/Demodulation system in baseband processor, DS/SS technique which is robust against noise and interference is used to eliminate the effect of multipath propagation. DQPSK modulation technique with M-sequences for wideband PN spreading signals is adopted because of BER characteristic and high speed digital signal transmission.

In the paper, characterization and analysis of UWB(Ultra Wide Band) antennas in time domain are described. The impulse propagation channel including UWB antennas is proposed for the analysis in time domain. Using the proposed propagation channel, the technique of obtaining impulse response of UWB antenna is proposed. Also, ringing, peak value of the impulse response, and the width of the impulse response are introduced as parameters for characterizing a UWB antenna in time domain. A modified UWB conical monopole antenna, a UWB TEM horn antenna, and a UWB stepped fat monopole antenna were fabricated. From the measurement of reflection coefficients, three antennas had bandwidth more than 3 GHz. The impulse responses of the antennas were measured in an anechoic chamber. The results showed that the TEM horn with highest gain has the highest peak amplitude and the stepped fat monopole antenna with narrowest bandwidth for reflection coeffcient had the widest width of the impulse response. Also, ringing in the stepped fat monopole antennas and the UWB conical monopole antenna were observed.

In this paper, it is studied on wide radiating slot antenna's miniaturization for ultra wide-band(UWB) technologies and notch structure to prevent interference between UWB systems and existing wireless systems for using Wi-Fi service of IEEE standards 802.11 a/n. Proposed antenna that wide slot is decreased from $\lambda/2$ to $\lambda/4$ length of resonant frequency has decreased by 72 % compared with conventional antenna. And optimized T-shaped CPW-fed stub has satisfied UWB bandwidth for 3.0~11.8 GHz. Then, creating 2-order Hilbert curve slot line in the stub's patch area, 4.9~5.6 GHz that centered frequency is 5 GHz is eliminated. Finally, the designed antenna constructed on FR4-epoxy has $20{\times}15\;mm^2$ dimension. The measured results that are obtained return loss under -10 dB through 3.2~11.8 GHz without Wi-Fi bandwidth, a linear phase characteristic, a stable group delay, and omnidirectional radiation patterns are presented.
