We report the development of solar flux receivers operating at 2.8 GHz to monitor solar radio activity. Radio waves from the sun are amplified, filtered, and then transmitted to a power meter sensor without frequency down-conversion. To measure solar flux, a calibration scheme is designed with a noise source, an ambient load, and a hot load at $100^{\circ}C$. The receiver is attached to a 1.8 m parabolic antenna in Icheon, owned by National Radio Research Agency, and observation is being conducted during day time on a daily basis. We compare the solar fluxes measured for last seven months with solar fluxes obtained by DRAO in Penticton, Canada, and by the Hiraiso solar observatory in Japan, and finally establish equations to convert observed flux to the so-called Penticton flux with an accuracy better than 3.2 sfu.

IPS 측위는 실내의 특정 위치의 무선 신호 정보를 수집하여 radio map을 구성하고 측위 시점에 구성된 정보와 수집된 무선 정보를 비교하여 현재 위치를 판단한다. 비교방법은 핑거프린트, 삼각 측량법 등의 알고리즘을 활용하며 최근에는 wifi 신호와 다른 신호를 혼합하여 계산하거나 다중 비교 방식을 사용하여 정확도를 높이는 측위 방법도 개발되었다. 앞서 언급한 측위방법은 비교적 정확한 실내 위치를 판단하지만 구축된 radio map정보와 측위 시점에서 수집된 신호 정보가 상이할 경우 측위 정확도는 크게 하락한다. 구축 시점과 측위 시점의 무선 신호에 차이가 발생하는 이유는 신호 발생 기기의 고장, 장애물 발생, 채널 간섭 현상 등이다. 특히 채널 간섭은 구축된 신호 영역 내에 동일 채널 및 인접 채널을 가지는 AP 및 테더링 기기 등이 신규로 설치되었을 때 측위에 영향을 주는 신호잡음 현상이다. 본 논문에서는 앞서 언급한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 신호 잡음에 강인한 IPS용 라디오맵에 대하여 제안한다. 제안하는 radio map 설계 방법은 측위 시점에 신호잡음이 발생하였을 때 이 정보를 수집하여 기존 radio map에 반영하여 정확도를 유지하는 방법이다. 이 방법을 적용할 경우 신호잡음에 능동적으로 대처하여 IPS 측위의 정확도를 높일 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

A c-band microwave radiometer receiver for river mouth water temperature remote sensing was designed and implemented The developed receiver operated at 5.1GHz frequency with 70MHz bandwidth. It had high gain of 50dB and low noise figure of 2dB. Also we executed efficiency evaluation about detection capability of the receiver with noise source similar input signal. The experiment results showed that the c-band receiver successfully detected the antenna temperature range from 193K to 300K.

A hair-pin shaped microstrip-line resonator and a dielectric resonator for injection-locked oscillators have been designed and fabricated for the comparative studying of their characteristics. In general, a commonly used dielectric resonator shows lower phase noise value than hair-pin resonator in the free-running mode. In the injection-locked mode, however, a hair-pin resonator is superior to the dielectric resonator; the wider tuning range, the 22% improved locking bandwidth, the lower noise effect, the short term stability, and the higher power level. The planar structure of a hair-pin shaped microstrip-line resonator will be easily applied to monolithic microwave integrated circuits.

The error rate pquations of digital radio signals transmitted throught the Nakagami's m-distribution fading channel have been both for nondiversity reception and for diversity reception cases in the environmment of Gaussin noise. Using the derived equation. erro rate performance has been evaluated and represented in figures as a function of carrier to noise ratio, fading figure, and the power correlation coefficient between two diversity branches. By comparing the diversity reception case with nondiversity reception case. We could measure the amount of error rate performance improvenment of digital radiosignals in fanding enviroment.

This paper proposes a spiral-shaped power island structure that can effectively suppress simultaneous switching noise (SSN) when the power plane drives high-speed integrated circuits in a small area. In addition, a new technique is presented which greatly improves the resonance peaks in a stopband by utilizing ${\lambda}$/4 open stubs on a conventional periodic electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) power plane. Both proposed structures are simulated numerically and experimentally verified using commercially available 3D electromagnetic field simulation software. The results demonstrate that they achieve better SSN suppression performance than conventional periodic EBG structures.

A large satellite communication terminal on the truck shall be designed ruggedly against a disturbance for holding a position which satisfies communication performance. Especially. A design considering a wind is essential for getting into a communication with a satellite in a strong-wind condition. This paper suggests a experimental method to analyze performance of a radio wave and the aiming accuracy by wind vibration. And it analyzes the improvement and vibrational effect on a random-excitation of a structure caused by nonlinear strong wind.
