In this study, we present the investigation results using a 3D radio wave propagation simulator in indoor environments. Previous studies treat only the path loss between the transmitter and receiver in 2D geometry. We provide the simulation results of indoor propagation prediction based on various ITU-R Recommendations. Simulation results compared here indicate that 150MHz and 2GHz frequency bands give quite different characteristics in presented indoor geometry. Since the field intensity is affected by the loss at the wall, the transmitting power level is one of the key factor for receiving power.

In the present study, tubular polyvinyl chloride (PVC) cortical bone mimics that simulate the cortical shell of long bones were used to validate the axial transmission technique for assessing the cortical thickness by measuring the ultrasonic velocities along the cortical shell of long bones. The ultrasonic velocities in the 9 PVC cortical bone mimics with wall thicknesses from 4.0 to 16.1 mm and inner diameters from 40 to 300 mm were measured as a function of the thickness by using a pair of custom-made transducers with a diameter of 12.7 mm and a center frequency of 200 kHz. In order to clarify the measured behavior, they were also compared with the predictions from a theory of guided waves in thin plates. This phantom study using the PVC cortical bone mimics provides useful insight into the dependencies of ultrasonic velocities on the cortical thickness in human long bones.

In this paper, an experiment was performed to confirm the effectiveness and the reliability of the wireless fire detector with a 2.4 GHz wireless module which is widely used for commercial purpose. It was the experiment of transmitted waves of wireless signals using samples of typical obstacles such as walls which may affect the wireless communication environment in the building. The experiment results show that the transmitted signal had differences in the response characteristics by wall types.

In this paper, We designed and fabricated C-band bandpass filter using dielectric resonators. From waveguide cutoff frequency which applied the region between adjacent dielectric resonators, the height of cavity is determined. The cavity's diameter is determined to the twice of dielectric resonator's diameter considering the conductor loss. The resonant frequency of the DR-cavity is calculated with travelling wave mode analysis. Conventionally, circular cylindrical dielectric resonator is analysed by Cohn's model which use the evanescent mode in the region between dielectric resonator wall and circular cavity wall, which is an approximated method. The external quality factor, Q$_{ex}$ has found with simulation result using Ansoft's Maxwell simulation tool. The designed filter using dielectric resonators with dielectric constant of 45 has the passband center at 5.065GHz. The bandpass filter using dielectric resonators have about 1dB insertion loss. 20MHz bandwidth and more than 30dB attenuation at f$_{0}$$\pm$15MHz.z.z.

In this paper, a high frequency method is developed which combines the uniform Geometrical Theory of Diffraction(GTD) and the Aperture Integration(AI) to analyze electromagnetic plane wave scattering by a perfectly-conducting, open-ended, semi-infinite parallel plate waveguide with a uniform layer of absorbing material on its inner wall, and with a slanted planar termination inside. In this method, first, the field of an arbitary point inside the paraller plate waveguide is computed by the GTD. Second, the field scattered into exterior region by the waveguide is found using the equivalent current, which can be obtaind from the aperture field of the waveguide and using the AI. Numerical results based on this GTD method are presented and compared with those based on the mode matching method.

In this paper, we estimated the degree of pipe thinning by using two accelerometers. It uses measured velocity of flexural wave traveling along the pipes. If the thickness of the wall decreases because of pipe thinning, flexural stiffness of the pipes decreases and accordingly, traveling velocity of flexural wave decreases. Thus, if we install two vibration sensors outside of the pipes and measures traveling velocity of flexural waves regularly, we can estimate and monitor the degree of pipe thinning quickly. In order to test the method we experimented with pipes, and get the result that group velocity varies according to the degree of pipe thinning. It verified this method can be used to monitor the pipe thinning.

It has been long suspected that the transition region may give rise to local pressure fluctuations and radiated sound that are different from those created by the fully-developed turbulent boundary layer at equivalent Reynolds number. Experimental investigation described in this paper concerns the characteristics of pressure fluctuations at the transition. Flush-mounted microphones and hot wires are used to measure the pressure fluctuations and local flow velocities within the boudary layer in the low noise wind tunnel. From this experimental we could observe the spatial and temporal development process of T-S wave using Wigner-Ville method and found the possibility of relation between the characteristic frequency of T-S wave and free stream velocity and the boundary layer thickness based on nondimensional pressure spectra scaled on outer variables.

In this paper, the electromagnetic wave transmittance of the reinforced concrete structure wall was analyzed using the performance measurement system of electromagnetic wave shielding. Recently, electromagnetic wave shielding technologies on the reinforced concrete wall conditions have been studied, and the shielding effectiveness have been tested on unit cell size. However, the unit cell size tests have problems on that the measurement range for shielding performance is insufficient and it is difficult to reflect the real conditions of the concrete wall. Therefore, we constructed a shielding performance measurement system using a large sample of 2.2m × 2.2m like a real wall. To verify the measurement system, general reinforced concrete test samples were selected, and real shielding performance measurements and numerical analysis were proceeded. Test and numerical analysis results showed similar tendencies in the evaluation frequency range of 75MHz to 2GHz. Thus we validated the effectiveness of this shielding performance measurement system.

An external electrode fluorescent lamps (EEFLs) have the advantage of a long lifetime in the early stages of the study on plasma discharge, interest in the lamp continues. Studies on the operation of external electrode fluorescent lamps have focused mainly on its use of a type of high frequency (MHz). By performing high brightness using a square wave operation method with the low frequency below 100kHz, which is applied to a narrowed tube type lamp that has several mm of lamp diameter, an EEFL presented the possibility of using it as a light source for backlights. However, because an EEFL generates plasma using wall charges, which considers the impedance characteristics of glass based on the structural principle in discharge, it can be significantly affected by frequency. Thus, this study verifies the change in the characteristics of electromagnetic fields according to the change in frequency through a Maxwell's electromagnetic field simulation and examines the relationship between the change in the EEFL frequency and brightness by measuring the optical characteristics. In addition, the characteristics of the transformation of energy orbits were verified by investigating the characteristics of the wavelength according to the change in frequency through the OES.
