To measure the velocity of heart wall and local flow transctaneously in blood vessels, we have developed a single channel 3.1 MHz pulsed ultrasonic Doppler velocity meter. Ultrasound pluse width and repetition frequency (PRF) used in the velocity meter is 1 ${\mu}$sec 6kHz reapectively, and the Doppler shift of the backscattered echo signal is sensed in a phase detector by coherent demodulation method. From the output of the phase detector, the Doppler signal corresponding to the mean velocity of acoustic wave scatterers over a small region is obtained by using a range gate, sample holder and band-pass filter. Mean frequency of Doppler signal is estimated by zero-crossing counter and the instantaneous velocity of scatters is displayed as a function of time. It is possible to estimate velocity profile, volume flow and flow acceleration of vessels in man if the number of channels and range resolution in increased.

Flux-drive waveguide phase shifter is designed by twin-slab model. Measured differential phase shifts are smaller than the theoretical values by 8-9 percents. Measured insertion loss and VSWR of the phase shifter using TT73-2200 ferite are less than 0.45dB and 1.25 respectively, within pass band. The phase shifter using double-setup transformer shows wider bandwidth characteristics. Finally the reduced-height waveguide phase shifter using TT3-2900 ferrite shows very efficient suppression of higher-oreder modes.

This paper presents novel compact circularly polarized(CP) operation of a annular ring slot antenna with a 45$^{\circ}$truncated in the patch and a cross-slot of unequal slot lengths. A simple configuration based on a cross-slot of unequal slot lengths on the annular ring patch is adopted to realize a small-size element antenna and used a proximity coupled feed method. Experimental results show that much wider impedance bandwidth of 7.74 % and axial ratio bandwidth of 1.9 % in GPS band(1.5 GHz).

Recently a new spectrum ruling has been proposed for UWB(Ultra-Wideband) communication applications. The new proposal is expected to reduce the usable UWB spectrum significantly and may cause to weaken the unique advantages of the UWB pulses such as high resolution synchronizations and robustness to the multipath effects. In this paper, we investigate the performance degradation caused by the reduced UWB spectrum. As a means to overcome the performance degradation, a modified discrete linear frequency modulation technique is proposed. We show that, when multipath components are present in the received signal, the proposed method exhibits superior performances in terms of pulse detection efficiency and range resolutions.

The main mission of OTM(On-The-Move) satellite communication system is to provide satellite communication service while moving on a vehicle. So it should have a capability to maintain a reliable communication channel when it travels at high speeds or in a severe fluctuation region. This paper presents a small-sized multi-mode monopulse structure applicable to OTM satellite communication system which has only single mode-coupler with a pair of slot using a feature of circular polarized received signal. And tracking error signal is defined using fundamental and high-order modes.

In this paper, for improving the performance of selecting and the sensitivity of the L-Band microwave radiometer for remote sensing of soil-moisture, the harmonic-suppressed hairpin bandpass filter is described. As the harmonic frequencies of the SIR can be controlled by the ratio of the impedance and electrical length, SIRs are used in the hairpin BPF for suppressing harmonics. Manufactured harmonic-suppressed hairpin BPF has the SIRs of three types and its harmonic is suppressed under 35 [dB] until 5 times of the center frequency of 1390 [MHz].

Simple practical design method is proposed for the waffle-iron waveguide filter. The design procedure comprises two steps. The first step is to calculate the K-inverter based on the transformed ABCD parameter from the S parameter for the single window of waffle-iron structure by use of EM S/W tool. The second step is to optimize the size of the windows such that the calculated K inverters may be in accord with the distributed constant prototype filter. In order to validate the design method, a waffle-iron filter for satellite communications over the Ka band is designed and fabricated. The measured results are in good agreement with the calculated ones.

Generally, it is very important to study selective coupling between cavities of the filter structure using multimode cavity resonator. In this paper, we have manufactured 5-pole bandpass filter(BPF) using dual and triple-mode cavity resonator. To do so, we have derived the formulas for coupling coefficient about coupling between TE-modes from TM/TE-mode's tangential and lognitudinal field intensities each other. To implement the Chebyshev response, the intercabity slot combining dual-mode and triple-mode is designed to couple one H-field of TE-mode parallel to slot plate. In this paper, specially it is derived the formulas for T $E_{11p}$-mode from TE-modes, and determined after obtaining location and size of intercabity slot from the equation. In this ppaer, based on this result, we designed and implmented teh bandpass filter operated at the center frequency of 14.5GHz with a Chebyshev response. For the manufactured cavity filter, dual-mode and triple-mode cavity are resonted by two orthogonal T $E_{113}$-modes, and by two orthogonal T $E_{113}$-modes and one T $M_{012}$-mode, respecitively. The 2-stage 5-pole BPF proposed in this paper has the insertion loss of -2.32dB, the reflection loss of -15dB in the passband, and the out-or-rejection of -67dB.

In this paper, we applied mode matching and generalized scattering matrix methods to three plane mode matching method for analyzing T-junctions. We calculated all scattering matrix elements by only three times and considered several incident modes. By proposed analysis method, we could analyze various waveguide discontinuity structures more conveniently and accurately. Using the stepped T-junction, we would be able to reduce the reflection coefficient at an input port and use it over wider band. Simulated and HFSS data of T-junctions are compared, showing good agreement for scattering matrix elements. Considering step numbers, height, length and position, we extracted for optimum dimensions and equivalent circuit parameters.
