A new internal antenna for GSM/DCS/Bluetooth application is proposed by using a folded loop resonator. Both feed leg and shorting leg are symmetrically implemented at the center of the folded loop, thus leading to produce resonances at integer frequencies of quarter wavelength. An open stub added at one end of the folded loop can reduce resonant frequencies. The open stub play a role in generating PIFA structure at a GSM band, thus increasing bandwidth, Two resonances at the GSM band are observed at folded ring and PIFA, respectively.

This paper has presented a low phase noise oscillator using a square open loop with microstrip structure. A square open loop resonator has a large coupling coefficient value, which makes a high Q value, and has reduced phase noise. This oscillator has presented the oscillation frequency of 5.84 GHz, harmonics of -15.83 dBc and the phase noise of -111.17 dBc/Hz at the offset frequency of 100 kHz. In conclusion, the proposal structure has improved phase noise of 15 dB at the offset frequency of 100 kHz compared with the conventional structure of oscillator.

The performance analysis of optoelectronic oscillator(OEO) based on a directly modulated semiconductor laser was theoretically achieved. First, the analysis was performed on the open response of the key components that constitute the OEO loop. Using the results, we simulated the open-loop characteristics of the OEO loop. By combining oscillation conditions of loop oscillator in addition to the open-loop magnitude and phase responses, theoretical performance analysis such as OEO's oscillation frequency, spurious tones and phase noise was successfully completed.

The implementation and design of the wideband IFIU using aperture open loop resonator and reversed phase technique to reduce the local oscillator leakage signal was represented in this paper. The local oscillator leakage signal is generated in stage of frequency conversion, especially in frequency conversion of fully digital modulation signal close to DC signal. The leakage signal and spurious signals, which have effects on adjacent channel or in-band channel as interference signals, were reduced below -60 dBc for 45 Mbps and 155 Mbps IF interface units. The group delay for both IFIUs shows low ripple characteristics of 15 ns and 8 ns, respectively. Also, the amplitude ripple characteristic in 150 MHz bandwidth with L-band center frequency satisfies the required specification of 2 dB. The implemented IFIU provides the required specifications for wideband satellite communication system.

A groundwater source heat pump (GWHP) was developed in this study by adapting a borehole heat exchanger with closed-loop and open-loop systems in a new building. In the pilot test building, the air-conditioning on the second floor was designed to employ a closed-loop system and that on the third floor had an open-loop system. The GWHP design is based on the feasibility of groundwater resources at the installation site. For the hydrogeological survey of the study site, pumping and injection tests were conducted, and the feasibility of GWHP installation was evaluated based on the air-conditioning load demand of the building. The site was found to be satisfactory for the design capacity of the thermal load and water quality. In addition, the effect of groundwater movement on the performance of the closed-loop system was tested under three different operational scenarios of groundwater pumping. The performance of the system was sustainable with groundwater flow but declined without appropriate groundwater flow. From long-term observations of the operation, the aquifer temperature change was less than 2℃ at the observation well and 5℃ at the injection well with respect to the initial groundwater temperature. This pilot study is expected to be of guidance for developing GWHPs at fractured rock aquifers.

본 논문에서는 고속. 저전력에 적합한 개방 구조를 갖는 8-비트 500Msmaples/s 2-Step ADC 를 제안하였다. 500Msmaples/s 의 고속 동작을 위해서 기존의 M-DAC을 이용한 폐쇄 구조 대신 개방형 구조를 사용하였다. 이와 더불어 저전력을 구현하기 위해서 analog-latch 를 제안하여 동적 동작을 수행시킴으로써 전력 소모를 줄였으며 , mux 의 구현 시 reset switch를 이용하여 로딩 시간을 개선함으로써 high-speed 에 적합하도록 설계하였다. 제안된 ADC 는 1-poly 6-metal 0.18um CMOS 공정을 이용하였으며 1.8V 전원 전압을 이용하여 250mW 의 전력을 소모하며 500M 샘플링 주파수에서 120MHz 신호 입력 시 7.6 비트의 ENOB를 얻을 수 있었다.

In the present study, flow characteristics and wind noises around the sunroof opening are analyzed variation with panoramic sunroof deflector angle. A mesh deflector is attached to reduce wind noise while a car is driving with the panoramic sunroof opening. A new forward inclined type deflector was invented to improve wind noise. The effect of this new concept of mesh deflector on the open-panoramic flow characteristics and wind noises were studied with CAT (Computer Aided Test) and wind tunnel test, which shows the reduction of open-panoramic wind noises such as sunroof buffeting, sunroof booming, and turbulent noise. Therefore, the forward inclined type deflector can efficiently improve wind noise with the same production cost.

Wikipedia is one of the world's most visited sites for content collaboration. Its success is due to thousands of volunteers' motivation and commitment to contribute their knowledge to Wikipedia. In this paper, we use the Cox regression model to assess the effect of self-loop editing on the promotion of Wikipedia featured articles. We collected 2978 Wikipedia featured article editing history from start of Wikipedia until 2011. We use self-loops as a proxy measure for Wikipedia editors' commitment, and find that self-loop editing has a positive effect on the promotion of featured articles. We further distinguish the self-loop into a short-term self-loop and a long-term self-loop. We find that long-term self-loop editing is more helpful than short-term self-loop editing. This research has been conducted with both theoretical and practical application methods.

This study designed and fabricated a multi-purpose planar antenna for base stations that are accessible to DCS, WiBro, and ISM. The proposed antenna was designed into an open loop form from the existing monopole structure. The capacitance of the multi-purpose antenna was increased by the coupling of open parts. This makes the use of MMIC and LTCC convenient and the antenna is smaller and has a larger gain than existing antennas. The resonance distance and bandwidth can be adjusted by changing the open gap and the height of the loop of the antenna. The bandwidth of the designed antenna satisfies DCS, IMT-2000, WiBro, Bluetooth, wireless LAN and ISM bands based on VSWR 2. The entire frequency bandwidth is $58.75\%$ of $1.575GHz\~2.985GHz(1.41GHz)$. Also, the radiation pattern of the antenna displayed co-polarization and cross-polarization characteristics at 1.6GHz, 2.3GHz and 2.8GHz.
