  • A compact dual-band half-ring-shaped (HRS) bent slot antenna fed by a coplanar waveguide for wireless local area network (WLAN) and worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) applications is presented. The antenna consists of two HRS slots with different lengths and widths. The two HRS slots are connected through an arc-shaped slit, and the upper HRS slot is bent in order to reduce the size of the antenna. The optimized dual-band HRS bent slot antenna operating in the 2.45 GHz WLAN and 3.5 GHz WiMAX bands is fabricated on an FR4 substrate with dimensions of 30 mm by 30 mm. The slot length of the proposed dual-band slot antenna is reduced by 35%, compared to a conventional dual-band rectangular slot antenna. Experimental results show that the proposed antenna operates in the frequency bands of 2.40-2.49 GHz and 3.39-3.72 GHz for a voltage standing wave ratio of less than 2, and measured gain is larger than 1.4 dBi in the two bands.

  • Noninvasive multifrequency microwave radiometry using coaxial waveguide antenna has been investigated for a homogeneous and four layer human body model. The coupling between coaxial waveguide antenna and a. biological object is analyzed by use of the FDTD method to obtain the absorbed power patterns in the media. The object studied in this paper is a homogeneous and four-layered lossy medium. The specific absorption rates(SAR) distribution is calculated in each region by use of the steady-state response in FDTD method.

  • In this paper, coplanar waveguide fed antennas (CPWFAs) insetting two slits to boundary of the square microstrip patch are presented. These slits play roles in not only lowering a resonant frequency but also fine-tuning for the proposed antenna together with open stub of CPW feed line. The CPWFAs were designed and manufactured using microwave dielectrics (Al,Mg)TaO$_2$ having high dielectric-constant ($\varepsilon$r=20). The return loss and input impedance of the CPWFAs were investigated in terms of the slit length and open stub length of CPW feed line. It is shown that a resonant frequency decreases as the slit length increases.

  • Ceramic dielectric waveguide duplexer was developed. Duplexer was designed in order to minimize the muture interferences between transmission port and receive port of bandpass filter. The design method for antenna port was determined by the transmission loss and calibrated the length of resonator of recriving filter. We used the ceramic powder of dielectric constant 9.46 and installed SMD type on PCB board.

  • In this paper, the array synthesis horn antenna was designed and measured a radiation power after connecting magnetron. The proposed antenna was designed on the basis of the $4{\times}4$ array synthesis horn antenna characteristics. For suppressing a back-lobe, 2 step short-stub structures were attached to synthesis horn aperture upper and lower. The designed antenna has FBR(Front to Back Ratio) of 39.7 dB. HPBW(Half Power Beam Width) of the E-plane and the H-plane are $8.86^{\circ}$ and $7.35^{\circ}$ each in the measurement. For measuring a radiation power of array antenna that use a magnetron, the waveguide adaptor was designed and connected magnetron with horn antenna. Also, microstrip line coupler that replace a dielectric material with an air gap was designed for measuring a high power. As a result, average radiation output power of the $4{\times}4$ array synthesis horn antenna that connect a four magnetrons had a 0.063W.

  • In this paper, a performance analysis of waveguide broad-wall slot array antenna for millimeter-wave seeker in Ka-band was performed as using near-field measurement. The measurement of slot array antenna was conducted in both far-field and near-field. And the validation of near-field test in millimeter band was confirmed. It was confirmed that the beam pattern characteristics including beam width and side lobe level of the slot array antenna that performed the verification were the same. Differenced in the side lobe level of azimuth and elevation beam pattern were verified to be less than 1dB. Additionally, the new antenna aperture distribution was extracted as using back-projection method modifying the near-field data and then introduced the method conducting performance analysis of array antenna.

  • Discharge measurement during flood season is very difficult. Microwave water surface current meter (MWSCM) can measures river surface velocities easily without contacting water. This study introduces its improved version, MWSCM for general use. The existing version of MWSCM is for floods so that its applicable period in a year is short. It has been improved to extend its applicability in a year. The range of measurable velocity for MWSCM for general use is extended so it can be applied during normal flows as well as high flows. MWSCM for general use can measure the velocity range of $0.03{\sim}20.0ms^{-1}$, whereas MWSCM for floods can measure the velocity range of $0.5{\sim}10.0ms^{-1}$. To make such innovation of MWSCM for general use, the applied microwave frequency of MWSCM was changed from 10 GHz to 24 GHz. Waveguide slot array antenna has been designed with the new development of the circuit of transmitting and receiving part. Improvement requests on the existing MWSCM for floods - weight lightening, measured velocity stabilization, self-test, low power consumption, and waterproof and dampproof - from the users of it have been reflected for the development of the new version of MWSCM.
