The differential global positioning system (DGPS) transmits a GPS enhancement signal using a top-loaded monopole antenna in the medium frequency range. The top-loaded antenna in the medium frequency band can attain a radiation efficiency on the order of 10%. The antenna ground plane characteristics affect the antenna radiation efficiency. To improve the radiation efficiency, it is necessary to install the antenna on a ground plane with large enough physical dimensions and good conductivity. The antenna radiation efficiency is a primary factor in determining the DGPS service area. The service area of the DGPS using a medium frequency band is dominantly affected by the antenna radiation efficiency. To determine antenna radiation efficiencies accurately, the antenna radiation efficiencies of DGPS are deduced from the propagation power in this paper. Based on the deduced antenna radiation efficiencies, the service area for the Korean nationwide-DGPS is analyzed and evaluated.

This article proposed polarization selective antenna for UHF RFID system. The proposed antenna is consist of microstrip patch antenna with dual feeding and two SPDT switches and a SP4T switch and 3dB hybrid coupler. Through control of voltage of switches, the proposed reader antenna can select horizontally linear polarization, vertically linear polarization, left-hand circular polarization (LHCP) and right hand circular polarization (RHCP). The proposed reader antenna satisfied 2:1 VSWR at 902MHz ~ 928MHz. and 3dB under AR(axial ratio). And it can select appropriative polarization with user environment and tag polarization. So it minimize PLF and increased reading distance.

A Slot array antenna with a phase reversal device is presented for WLAN operation. The array factor and radiation characteristics of the antenna are investigated. For practical application of the radiation pattern, the phase reversal device is used. The antenna is formed on both sides of the substrate ($30mm{\times}96mm{\times}0.2mm$). The measured results show that the proposed antenna has a 10 dB return loss bandwidth of 156 MHz (2.392 - 2.548 GHz) and the measured maximum gain was 8.31 dBi.

This paper presents a novel design of the printed hyperpolar-transformed Sierpinski Carpet (HSC) antenna. By hyperpolar transforming the Sierpinski carpet geometry, from isotropic scaling symmetry to equiangular scaling symmetry, we get improved performance rather than that of the general Sierpinski Carpet antenna. The design parameter and performance of the proposed monopole antenna are investigated by simulation. And we showed that proposed HSC geometry gives more freedom for wideband antenna design such as flare angle, (angular)scale factor.

Measurement uncertainty assessment is very important in measurement and calibration. RRL provides antenna calibration services for EMI test. Reliability of EMI test depends on accurate antenna calibration. Antenna calibration results have to be accompanied with measurement uncertainty for its better reliability. In the late of 2005, CISPR issued the CISPR/A/644/C which describes the antenna calibration and measurement uncertainty. In this paper, on the basis of CISPR/A/644/C, we provide the measurement uncertainty values for dipole antenna calibration at the Calibration Test Site(CALTS) of Icheon. The antenna calibration method is 3-antenna height-scanning-averaging method, which measures the free-space antenna factor. We also considered all uncertainty sources that can affect measurement results during calibration.

In this paper, a printed small Ultra-Wideband (UWB) antenna with directive radiation characteristics based on combination of electric-magnetic radiators is presented. The combinations of the electric and magnetic type antennas result in the directive radiation patterns for all observed UWB frequency band. Simple combination of dipole antenna and loop antenna is also presented to show that proper configuration of electric radiator and magnetic radiator can produces directive radiation characteristics. The target frequency is from 3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz with size of $15\;mm{\times}31\;mm$. A proto-type of the combined antenna is simulated, fabricated and measured. Simulation and experimental results of input impedance and gain characteristics of the proposed antenna are presented. There are good agreements between the simulated and measured VSWR curves. Also, the results show the directive radiation characteristics with small antenna form factor over the target frequency range.

This paper presents the characteristics of antenna factors for sleeve dipole antennas with a broad bandwidth. The coupled integral equations for the unknown current distributions on each elements are derived and solved by applying Galerkin's method of moments. The flatness of antenna factor is considered by variation of the length and number of sleeve elements.

The characteristics of a disk-loaded cylindrical dipole (DLCD) antenna that determine its performance are analyzed by using the method of moments. The current integral equation that is considered with extended boundary condition is derived. Numerical results for the input impedance and radiation pattern of the antenna are presented. The antenna factor with the antenna gain is computed to check the possibility of using this antenna as the broadband antenna for the special case in such as electromagnetic compatibility testing. The comparisons of the computed results with measured data are made. These results will allow this antenna to be used with confidence in various applications.
