We present a study on the reflection of optically controlled microwave pulses from non uniform plasma layers in semiconductors. The transient response of the microwave pulses in different plasma layers has been evaluated by means of the reflection function of dielectric microstrip lines. The lines were used with an open-ended termination containing an optically induced plasma region, which was illuminated by a light source. The reflection characteristics impedance resulting from the presence of plasma is evaluated by means of the equivalent transmission line model. We have analyzed the variation of the transient response in a 0.01 cm layer with a surface frequency in the region of 128 GHz. In the reflection the variation of the diffusion length $L_D$ is large compared with the absorption depth $1/{\alpha}_l$. The variation of the characteristic response of the plasma layer with differentially localized pulses has been evaluated analytically. The change of the reflection amplitude has been observed at depths of 0.1 cm, 0.01 cm and $0.1{\times}10^{-5}$ cm respectively.

Multiconductor transmission line(MTL) equations are solved by FDTD method to examine the coupling between incident electromagnetic fields and multiconductor transmission lines. The measurement of induced voltages on UTP Category 5 and STP Category 5 cables which are used as LAN cables is carried out using a TEM cell where uniform and strong TEM fields can be established. The comparison between measured and simulated results shows good agreement. It is also found that grounding of shield foil at both terminations and small grounding resistance give good shielding effects for STP Category 5.

The area of gear vibration and noise, has recently been the focus of many studies. The proper kinematic and geometric design of gears, the mathematical modeling of gear system are essential for a good design. This work present a gear disign for reducing noise, and practical approaches used for machinery noise reduction slong with the summary of methods available for predicting gear noise in terms of the transmis- sion error, and show a comparative study with other methods. A new tooth profile modification is proposed for reducing vibration and noise of involute gears. The method is based on the use of cubic spline curves. The tooth profile is constrained to assume an involute shape during the loaded operation. Thus the new gear profile assures conjugate motion at all points along the line of action. The new profile is found to result in a more uniform static transmission error compared to not only standard involute profile but also modificated profile therby contributing to the improvement of vibration and noise characteristics of the gear.

The distributed jointing method is used in the underground tunnel due to narrow space of jointing. This method causes non-uniform length between cable joints. It has an effect on the sheath circulating current and the induced voltage. Furthermore the distributed jointing method may cause transient overvoltage resulting from lightning in underground cable which is connected with overhead line. The author diversely studied the sheath circulating current and induced voltage on underground cable depending on the distributed jointing length under the normal and the transient circumstances. The various simulation results really improve the cable system utility.

In this paper, when the pulses propagate on a uniform microstrip line, the distortion of pulse signal caused by dispersion is investigated in time domain. We analyzed dispersion characteristics according to dielectric constant and structure of transmission line, and compared propagating characteristics for square and gaussian pulse according to pulse width, pulse amplitude, and propagation velocity. The results of this paper are compatible to the trade-off determination of relative permittivity, substrate height, strip width and pulse width of signal pulse when a design of MIC and MMIC is necessary.

In this letter, we report on the investigation of Ni/Si/Ni Ohmic contacts to n-type 4H-SiC. Ohmic contacts have been formed by a vacuum annealing and $N_2$ gas ambient annealing method at $950^{\circ}C$ for 10 min. The specific contact resistivity ( $\rho_{c}$ ), sheet resistance($R_s$), contact resistance($R_c$), transfer length($L_T$) were calculated from resistance($R_T$) versus contact spacing(d) measurements obtained from 10 TLM(transmission line method) structures. The resulting average values of vacuum annealing sample were $\rho_{c}=3.8{\times}10^{-5}\Omega cm^{3}$, $R_{c}=4.9{\Omega}$, $R_{T}=9.8{\Omega}$ and $L_{T}=15.5{\mu}m$, resulting average values of another sample were $\rho_{c}=2.29{\times}10^{-4}\Omega cm^{3}$, $R_{c}=12.9{\Omega}$ and $R_{T}=25.8{\Omega}$. The physical properties of contacts were examined using X-Ray Diffraction and Auger analysis, there was a uniform intermixing of the Si and Ni, migration of Ni into the SiC.

This paper presents a balun consisting of a T-junction, a Right/Left Handed Transmission line(RLH-TL), and a conventional Right Handed(RH) line. It is assumed that the RLH-TL consists of N unit-cells. We provide closed-form solutions and design a very compact wideband(80 %) balun using CPW lines based on the obtained solutions. Then, we propose a capacitively loaded loop antenna designed for a uniform current distribution. The antenna resistance of the proposed antenna at resonance is about 204 ohms. The length of the unit cell is about $\lambda/12$(total length: $1\;\lambda$). The magnetic field generated from the proposed antenna is stronger than that of the conventional one by as much as 20 dB. We used a coplanar strip line(CPS) to combine the loop antenna and balun. The proposed antenna may be used as a near field UHF RFID reader antenna.

In this paper, we have analysed frequency-dispersion characteristics of higher-order modes for uniform planar transmission lines, using the 2-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method. The method presented in this paper uses both informations of amplitude and phase of the electromagnetic spectrum to determine resonant frequencies, while methods previously reported use the magnitude only. This algorithm is very useful when a resonant mode has a relatively small magnitude, where the identification of the resonant mode is quite difficult. Numerical results show that a strip line supports few higher-order modes within the frequency range of 20 GHz, but there occur many higher-order modes in the structure of grounded coplanar waveguide, where resonant frequencies of the first higher-order mode is very close to those of the fundamental mode and there occur lots of very adjacent higher-order modes. As in this example, for the analysis of planar transmission lines which support many resonant modes very close each other, the method presented in this paper can be applied very efficiently.

In this paper, the full color LED billboard or a general quality improvement methods of quality gamma correction, brightness, and brightness adjustment, etc., regardless of the overall color of images uniformly bright or dark have been taken care of. The video itself, but simply expressed as a uniform brightness of a certain size, how to adjust the brightness of input video signal does not reflect the characteristics of the entire screen with just a lighter or darker line is only feeling was brought. So, unlike conventional video transmission system with new LED display technology in the histogram analysis of image data is input by the input image data by determining the luminance values of the attributes are reflected, as appropriate based on the histogram of the distribution of brightness values By controlling the LED display is expressed in the uniform image can improve the brightness control, histogram distribution of the image as full color billboards driven processing technology is proposed.
