In this paper, a wideband loop antenna for UWB applications is studied. The structure of the proposed wideband loop antenna is a circular loop antenna with appended circular sectors to obtain an ultra-wideband characteristic. The circular sectors are used instead of conventional triangular sectors to match with the 50 ohm feed line. Optimal design parameters are obtained by analyzing the effects of the gap between the circular sectors and the radius of the circular loop on the input reflection coefficient and gain characteristics. The optimized wideband loop antenna is fabricated on an FR4 substrate with a dimension of 41 mm by 41 mm. Experiment results show that the proposed antenna has a frequency band of 3.1-11.0 GHz for a VSWR < 2.25, which assures the operation in the UWB band. Measured gain ranges 1.3-5.3 dBi in the UWB band.

In this paper, a design method for a wideband square loop antenna for Digital TV applications is studied. The proposed loop antenna is a square loop antenna combined with circular sectors to connect with central feed points. The square loop is used instead of the circular loop in order to miniaturize the antenna size. The input reflection coefficient and gain characteristics of the proposed antenna are analyzed to match with the 75 ohm port impedance for DTV applications. The effects of the gap between the circular sectors and the length of the square loop on the input reflection coefficient and gain characteristics are examined to obtain the optimal design parameters. The optimized antenna is fabricated on an FR4 substrate, and the experiment results show that it operates in the frequency band of 470-1,300 MHz for a VSWR < 2, which assures the operation in the DTV band.

In this paper, a 1.5 V high-gain high-frequency CMOS complementary operational amplifier is presented. The input stage of op-amp is designed for supporting the constant transconductance on the Input stage by consisting of the parallel-connected rail-to-rail complementary differential pairs. And consisting of the class-AB rail-to-rail output stage using the concept of elementary shunt stage and the grounded-gate cascode compensation technique for improving the low PSRR which was a disadvantage in the general CMOS complementary input stage, the load dependence of open loop gain and the stability of op- amp on the output load are improved, and the high-gain high-frequency operation can be achieved. The designed op-amp operates perfectly on the complementary mode with the 180° phase conversion for a 1.5 V supply voltage, and shows the DC open loop gain of 84 dB, the phase margin of 65°, and the unity gain frequency of 20 MHz. In addition, the amplifier shows the 0.1 % settling time of .179 ㎲ for the positive step and 0.154 ㎲ for the negative step on the 100 mV small-signal step, respectively, and shows the total power dissipation of 8.93 mW.

In this paper, we consider the stabilization and $H_\infty$ control of linear systems with static output feedback control. The static output feedback control represents the simplest closed-loop control that can be realized in practice, and, moreover, it is less expensive to be implemented and is more reliable. In spite of its advantages, it is one of the open problems which is not sloved analytically or numerically yet. After decompose the closed-loop system into feedback form, by adopting the small gain theorem, we obtain a sufficient condition for stabilization and a sufficient condition for It control expressed as linear matrix inequalites. Finally, we show the usefulness of our results by a numerical example.

This paper prsents an end-point control of a one-link flexible arm with a payload by using closed loop control. Tip position of arm is shifted by the base motion according to DC servomotor, whivh is driven by a feedback signal composed of the tip displacement and the estimated tip velocity. The shifting problem of the arm from initial position to desired position is considered by the variation of the displacement gain Gd and velocity agin Gv. Theoretical results are obtained by applying the method of the Laplace transform to the governing equations and the method of numerical inversion. This system is composed of a flexible arm with payload, DC servomotor, and a ballscrew mechanism. The flexible arm is mounted on a mobile stage driven by a servomotor and ballscrew. In controlling the tip displacement of flexible arm, the fundamental bode vibration is supressed more rapidly with an increase of the velocity feedback gain Gv and the feedback displacemenmt gain Gd. Theretical responses are approximately in good agreement with those obtained experimentally.

This paper investigates a PID fuzzy controller for output voltage regulation of a current-doubler-rectified asymmetric half-bridge (CDRAHB) DC/DC converter. The controller is a PD-type fuzzy controller in parallel with a linear integral controller. The PD type fuzzy controller is for providing the varying gain at the different operating conditions to regulate the output voltage. The linear integral controller is for removing the steady-state error of the output voltage. In order to show the outstanding dynamic characteristics of the proposed controller, PSIM simulation studies are carried out and compared to the results for which the conventional loop gain design method is used.

The values of physical components of the plants and controllers as well as the relevant environmental conditions change in time, thus the output performance can be deteriorated during the operating span of the system. Naturally the duty of calibration or the prevention of performance deterioration due to excessive component sensitivity should be provided to the control system. The proposed controller, whenever necessary, measures the open-loop and close-loop characteristics, and then calculates the offset and sensor gain correction values based on the prepared standard measurements It is applied to the control of a flexible link system with the gain and offset calibration problems in the light sensor module for position to show the applicability. In this paper, we propose a digital controller which has the capability of calibration gain and offset adjustment using fuzzy methods.

Optimal control gain for time-delay systems is made by an optimal control gain for delay-free systems multiplied by a state transition function for the delay time. The optimal control gain for delay-free systems is obtained by pushing two zeros of the PID controller closely to a larger pole of the second order plant. Thus the optimal tuning of PID controller for time-delay second order system is able to be obtained by calculation for the state transition function.
