In mobile radio environment, it is well known that the base station antenna height gain factor is 6 dB / octave. But the mobile radio environment is not simple and affected by the terrain contour or the man-made structures, so the antenna height gain factor varies due to the propagation conditions. This paper represents the received signal power gain due to the base station antenna height in the microcell environment on the basis of the flat terrain and sloping terrain model. The gain point which shows the antenna height gain is derived in this paper.

In this paper, we studied miniaturization of LPDA(Log-Periodic Dipole Array) antenna used for VHF and UHF bands. To miniaturize the LPDA antenna, in this study, the radiation elements in a low frequency were changed into a triangular meander structure which has small current cancelation effect at feed part. For the triangular meander structure, an isosceles triangular and right triangular meander structures were proposed and the LPDA antennas were miniaturized by using the two meander structures. Also, the simulated and measured results were compared for the two miniaturized LPDA antennas. As a result, the isosceles triangular meander and right angle triangular meander structure applied LPDA antennas were reduced up to 60.5 % and 72.4 % compared a basic LPDA antenna, respectively. Consequently, we confirmed that the triangular meander structure is suitable for miniaturization of a LPDA antenna.

In this paper, the design of a dual-polarization rectangular microstrip patch antenna with high isolation between two feeding ports excited by using both an aperture-coupled feed (port 1) and a 3-dimensional microstrip feed (port 2) is presented. From the simulation using the commercial program IE3D, the optimum values of the antenna parameters are investigated at both two feed structures and the optimum antenna is designed and fabricated. Experimental results confirmed that an bandwidth of the antenna is about 17 % and the isolation of two ports is great than 30 dB over all frequency bands.

In this paper, a new planar folded UHF band RFID reader antenna is suggested. For the antenna suggested in this paper, 4 PIFA (Planar Inverted F Antenna) micro-strip structures are adopted. The size is $50mm{\times}50mm{\times}6.2mm$. The gain of the antenna is 1.1 dBi, the VSWR is 1.2:1, and the efficiency is 63.3 %. The radiation pattern is designed as upper direction. Identification distance for the RFID tags is improved by minimizing hand effects with properly integrating 4 PIFAs.

In this paper, the frequency reconfigurable antenna is proposed and designed. The proposed antenna is designed using the vertically stacked dipole structures and have the operating band for Cellular, PCS/WCDMA/Wibro/WiFi and WiMAX. The operating frequency band is selected by three pair of PIN diodes using the voltage difference between each dipole antenna and feeding transmission lines. The proposed antenna meets the required operating bandwidth and the maximum gain for each frequency band are measured as 6.3 dBi, 5.4 dBi and 5.8 dBi, respectively. The proposed antenna in this paper can be applied for the future mobile small base station or repeater antenna because this antenna can provide the small size and high gain features.

In this paper, we suggested the novel monopole antenna for dual band characteristics by a linear monopole antenna combined with crossed planar monopole antenna. The target frequency is ISM(Industrial Scientific Medical) 2.45GHz/5.8GHz. The distinctive features of the proposed antenna in this paper is based on the slit in the surface of a crossed planar monopole for the dual band characteristics and the omnidirectional radiation patterns. The compact size of the proposed antenna is $36mm{\times}5.4mm{\times}5.4mm$. According to the simulation results, the bandwidth, the reflection coefficients below -10dB, of 2.45GHz and 5.8GHz are 150MHz and 1.43GHz, respectively. Consequently the proposed antenna structures is apply to the antenna for dual band characteristics.

This paper presents a novel miniaturized 3-D cubic antenna for use in wireless sensor network (WSN) application. The geometry of this antenna is designed as a cube including a meander dipole antenna. A truly omnidirectional pattern is produced by this antenna in both E-plane and H-plane, which allows for non-intermittent communication that is orientation independent. The operating frequency lies in the ISM band (centered in 2.45 GHz). The dimensions of this ultra-compact cubic antenna are 1.25*1.12*1cm3 which features a length dimension λ/11. The coefficient which presents the overall antenna structure is Ka=0.44. The cubic shape of the antenna is allowing for smart packaging, as sensor equipment may be easily integrated into the cube hallow interior. The major constraint of WSN is the energy consumption. The power consumption of radio communication unit is relatively high. So it is necessary to design an antenna which improves the energy efficiency. The parameters considered in this work are the resonant frequency, return loss, efficiency, bandwidth, radiation pattern, gain and the electromagnetic field of the proposed antenna. The specificity of this geometry is that its size is relatively small with an excellent gain and efficiency compared to previously structures (reported in the literature). All results of the simulations were performed by CST Microwave Studio simulation software and validated with HFSS. We used Advanced Design System (ADS) to validate the equivalent scheme of our conception. Input here the part of summary.

The outdoor antenna servo system is subject to has significant torque disturbances from wind pressures and gusts on the antenna structures, as well as bearing and aerodynamic frictions. This control system should provide a sharp directivity in spite of the environmental disturbances and internal uncertainties. Therefore, the implementation of a real-time controller is necessary for the precise generation of the reference signal and robust tracking performance. In this paper, the discrete-time controller for the quick tracking of a target communication satellite is designed by applying the sampled-data $H_{\infty}$ control theory along with the reference signal generated by an improved conventional step-tracking algorithm. The sampled-data $H_{\infty}$controller demonstrates superior robustness for the longer sampling period when compared with a simple PID controller.

Recently, the gate oxide damage induced by the plasma processes has been one of the most significant reliability issues as the gate oxide thickness falls below 10 nm. The process-induced damage was studied with the metal antenna test structures. In addition to the electron trapping, the hole trapping in a 10 nm thick gate oxide due to the plasma-induced charging was observed in the NMOS's with a metal antenna. The hole trapping gave rise to the decrease of the transconductance (gm) similarly to the case of the electron trapping, but to the extent much less than the electron trapping. It would be because the electrical stress that the plasma-induced charging forced to the gate oxide for the devices with the hole trapping was much smaller than for those with the electron trapping. This hypothesis was strongly supported by the measured characteristics of the Fowler-Nordheim current in the gate oxide.

This paper is about the design of a small wide-band slot loop antenna, which consists of dual offset-fed and rectangular loop within the slot on a substrate. The proposed antenna is a novel structure generating a multi-resonances due to three geometrical resonance structures. The impedance matching of this antenna can be accomplished by changing the offset position of dual-fed at resonance frequencies. In this experiment, the slot of a fabricated antenna has a center frequency of 6.755㎓, 12.5mm${\times}$50mm in size and the rectangular loop has 10.5mm${\times}$27.5mm in size. The measured result is fractional bandwidth 63.21% with VSWR 2:1, which is agreed with the simulated result within 5% of error, and the maximum antenna gain is 7.42㏈i.
