In this paper, we design and fabricate the L-band high speed pulsed HPA using LDMOS FET. And we propose the high voltage and high speed switching circuit for LDMOS FET. The pulsed HPA using LDMOS FET is simpler than using GaAs FET because it has a high gain, high output power and sin81e voltage supply. LDMOS FET is suitable for pulsed HPA using switching method because it has $2{\sim}3$ times higher maximum drain-source voltage(65 V) than operating drain-source voltage($V_{ds}=26{\sim}28\;V$). As results of test, the output peak power is 100 W at 1.2 GHz, the rise/fall time of output RF pulse are 28.1 ns/26.6 ns at 2 us pulse width with 40 kHz PRF, respectively.

The wideband annular ring slot antenna with concentric radiating structure and low impedance feedline has been presented. This antenna has been analyzed in compensation for FR-4 substrate with relative permittivity 4.3 and thickness 1 mm. As the measured 10 dB impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna is 127.2%(2.17∼9.76 GHz), its bandwidth is much broader than maximum 82% bandwidth of a conventional annular ring slot antenna. Experimental results from 2 to 10 GHz are shown to be in good agreement with the simulation. And this antenna has a high gain above 4 dBi from 2 GHz to 10 GHz as well as a 24% size reduction and 42% area reduction than a circular slot antenna.

We fabricated and characterized Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) using MCM-C (Multi-Chip-Module-Cofired) technology for 2.14 GHz IMT-2000 mobile terminal application. First, We designed LNA circuits and simulated it's high frequency characteristics using circuits simulator. For the simulation, we adopted high frequency libraries of all the devices used in LNA samples. By the simulation, Gain was 17 dB and Noise Figure was 1.4 dB. We used multilayer process of LTCC (Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramics) substrate and conductor, resistor pattern for the MCM-C LNA fabrication. We made 2 buried inductors, 2 buried capacitors and 3 buried resistors. The number of the total layers was 6. On the top layer, we patterned microstrip line and pads for the SMT device. We measured the high frequency characteristics, and the results were 14.7 dB Gain and 1.5 dB Noise Figure.

The researchers entirely focused on meta-heuristic method for generalized assignment problem(GAP) that is known as NP-hard problem because of the optimal solution within polynomial time algorithm is unknown yet. On the other hand, this paper proposes a heuristic greedy algorithm with rules for finding solutions. Firstly, this paper reduces the weight matrix of original data to w_ij ≤ b_i/l in order to n jobs(items) pack m machines(bins) with l = n/m. The maximum profit of each job was assigned to the machine for the reduced data. Secondly, the allocation was adjusted so that the sum of the weights assigned to each machine did not exceed the machine capacity. Finally, the k-opt swap optimization was performed to maximize the profit. The proposed algorithm is applied to 50 benchmarking data, and the best known solution for about 1/3 data is to solve the problem. The remaining 2/3 data showed comparable results to metaheuristic techniques. Therefore, the proposed algorithm shows the possibility that rules for finding solutions in polynomial time exist for GAP. Experiments demonstrate that it can be a P-problem from an NP-hard.

In this paper, we propose a triple band WLAN antenna for Wi-Fi 6E band with DGS. The proposed antenna has the characteristics required frequency band and bandwidth by considering the interconnection of two strip lines and three areas on the ground place. The total substrate size is 31 mm (W) × 50 mm (L), thickness (h) 1.6 mm, and the dielectric constant is 4.4, which is made of 22 mm (W₆ + W₄ + W₅) × 43mm (L₁ + L₂ + L₃ + L₅) antenna size on the FR-4 substrate. From the fabrication and measurement results, bandwidths of 340 MHz (1.465 to 1.805 GHz) for 900 MHz band, 480 MHz (2.155 to 2.635 GHz) for 2.4 GHz band and 1950 MHz (4.975 to 6.925 GHz) for 5.0/6.0 GHz band were obtained on the basis of -10 dB. Also, gain and radiation pattern characteristics are measured and shown in the frequency triple band as required.

And beamwidth of 3dB in the E, H-plane was $40.6^{\circ}$ and $81.6^{\circ}$, respectively.

The thin films of 316L stainless steel were made on glass and S45C substrate by Ion beam assisted deposition with reactive atmosphere of argon and nitrogen. The films were deposited at the various conditions of ion beam power and the ratios of Ar/$N_2$gas. Properties of these films were analyzed by glancing x-ray diffraction method(GXRD), AES, potentiodynamic test, and salt spray test. The results of GXRD showed that austenite phase could be appeared by $N_2$ion beam treatment and the amount of austenite phase increased with the amount of nitrogen gas. The films without plasma ion source treatment had the weak diffraction peak of ferrite phase. But under the Ar plasma ion beam treatment, the strong diffraction peaks of ferrite phase were appeared and the grain size was increased from 12 to 16 nm. Potentiodynamic polarization test and salt spray test indicated that the corrosion properties of the STS 316L films with nitrogen ion source treatment were better than bulk STS 316L steel and STS 316L films with Ar ion source treatment.
