This paper considers an application of distributed antenna system (DAS) to a system of intra-vehicle wireless energy transfer (WET). The intra-vehicle WET system has features such as limited mobility of energy receiver, static channel environment and short distance between transmitter and human body. Under these conditions, location of transmitter highly affects the amount of energy received by human body and the energy received by energy receiving devices. We compare centralized antenna system (CAS) and the DAS in intra-vehicle WET system by simulation. The results show the DAS has superior performance to the CAS.

The fields at the aperture of conical horn antenna with corrugations parallel to the axis have been analyzed using FDTD(Finite Difference Time Domain). Easy calculation depending on the change of the structure of antenna and time reduction can be achieved by 2-D FDTD coding with the first-order Mur ABC(absorbing boundary condition). It is confirmed that the corrugation can reduce phase difference of field on aperture. also it is investigated that the directivity is increased by 6.1 %, 12.9%, and 28.4% with one corrugation, two corrugations, three corrugations, respectively. It is also found that the improvement of the characteristics of the antenna is not proportional to the number of the corrugation but more dependent on the location of the corrugation near the aperture than that far the aperture.

Various nondestructive evaluation (NDE) techniques have been studied to locate steel rebars of dowel, and to detect invisible damage such as voids and cracks inside concrete and debonding between rebars and concrete caused by corrosions and earthquakes. In this study, the aurhors developed 3-dimensional (3D) electromagnetic (EM) imaging technology to detect such damage and to identify exact location of steel rebars of dowel. The authors have developed sub-surface two-dimensional (2D) imaging technique using tomographic antenna array in previous works. In this study, extending the earlier analytical and experimental works on 2D image reconstruction, a 3D microwave imaging system using tomographic antenna array was developed, and multi-frequency technique was applied to improve quality of the reconstructed image and to reduce background noises. This paper presents the analytical expressions of numerical focusing procedures for 3D image reconstruction and numerical simulation to study the resolution of the system and the effectiveness of multi-frequency technique. Also, the design of 4?4 antenna array with switching devices is introduced as a preliminary study for the final design of whole array.

In this study, we adopt the strength variation (equation omitted) of electromagnetic waves by their distance. The location of antenna emitting electromagnetic waves is moved to its opposite side and the distance between human body and antenna is secured more. Therefore, the cellular phone designed in this study can reduce the impact of electromagnetic waves absorbed in local part of human body (in particular, head) and then can have competitiveness in the world market facing the regulations.

We propose a new radiating structure composed of a strip and a slot excited by an ideal current source, and electromagnetic analysis for the structure is presented. By the analysis procedure which is based upon equivalence formulated. Through the numerical computations to solve the equations by employing the method of moments, we ascertained that the suitable choice of the location and the size of strip guarantee the improvement of the radiation characteristics of antenna.

The researches about the stratospheric communication system are on process in USA, Japan, Europe and etc. The Airship is expected to be fixed at its position in stratosphere but perhaps its position is changed slightly because of wind in stratosphere. If earth station antenna has high gain without tracking function, even though the airship location has a little variation, degradation of antenna gain is occurred because of narrow beamwidth. In this paper, EIRP and G/T variation of the ground system due to the position variation of airship are examined.

Electric systems can be classified into two classes on the basis of the location of its energy source. One system is to be connected with its outside energy source. Obviously, these electric system is limited of its motion range and impossible to operate in the situation without a way to find an energy source nearby. another is to posses the energy source within it. These electric systems are free of motion range limit while their using is limited by the life of source. These limits can be tided over by using passive-type RF communication. RF-ID is a system that Is possible to interchange electricity and data by Radio Frequency to locate and identify various objects including a man.

Doppler spread can occur due to the relative movement of transmitter and receiver. The Doppler frequency shift varies as the relative location and the velocity of transceivers change. This Doppler spread may seriously degrade the performance of OFDM system which is considered to be very efficient for multimedia wireless communication. Therefore, applying the method of receiver diversity, we analyze the degree of BER improvement in Doppler spread environments to investigate the effectiveness of the chosen methods according to various wireless channels.

Recently, the interests of the precise localization are rapidly increasing, which are linked to IoT(Internet of Things) sensors. The precise localization in indoor environment can be utilized in navigation, security, anti-collision, and various location based services etc. However, conventional positioning sensors, such as PIR, ultrasonic, microwave etc. are vulnerable to weather or insensitive to direction of subject movement or low precision performance. In this paper we implement a UWB-IR localization system for long distance and high-precision localization, which is not affected by temperature, light and weather. The proposed system was divided and designed by H/W, Antenna, S/W parts, each of which was designed based on an accurate analysis and simulation. As a result, we can implemented and verified UWB IR system with precise localization performance.
