In this paper, we study the characteristics of dual band microstip antenna with modified inset feeder and a single slot. The modified inset feeder consists of the vertical inset feeder placed in x direction and the horizontal one in y direction for shortening the total length of inset feeder. The optimun feeding position for good impedance matching at two resonant frequencies can be easily found by adjusting the horizontal inset distance. And Various frequency ratios can be simply obtained by the parameters of slot. The measurements for fabricated antenna prototypes are carried out for validation. The measured results show a tunable frequency ratio from 1.25 to 1.88 with the variation of slot parameters. It is worthwhile to point out that the radiation patterns are similar at both bands. and below -20.0 dB of cross polarization level at the E plane.

유도결합 플라즈마를 이용한 식각 장치에서 플라즈마 균일도 향상에 대한 수많은 연구가 이뤄지고 있다. 안테나의 디자인, 인가 전력과 주파수, 안테나와 기판간의 거리, 기판과 챔버 외벽간의 거리 등 다양한 변수들이 변화되어 왔다. 또한, 최근에는 식각 균일도뿐만 아니라 식각 속도 향상에도 많은 관심이 모아지면서 유동에 영향을 주는 GDP 구조가 다시 중요해지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 300 mm 식각장치를 형상화하고, GDP의 구조와 유량비에 따라 플라즈마의 균일도에 어떻게 영향을 끼지는지 사용 유체역학 전산모사 프로그램인 CFD-ACE+를 이용하여 예측해 보았다. 안테나는 2중 직렬방식으로 안쪽과 바깥쪽의 안테나에 각기 다른 전력을 인가 할 수 있는 구조를 사용했으며, 압력은 10에서 60 mTorr까지 변화시켰다. GDP의 구조는 안쪽 입구와 바깥쪽 입구가 있으며 역시 따로 유량을 조절할 수 있도록 설계하였다. 안쪽 입구는 수직방향을 향하고 있으며, 바깥쪽 입구는 90도 이내의 각을 갖도록 꺾여 있는 것과 수평방향으로 주입할 수 있는 구조, 두 가지를 사용하였다. 유량 비율은 안쪽 입구와 바깥쪽 입구를 2:8, 5:5, 8:2로 고정하였다. 우선 GDP의 구조가 90이내의 각을 갖도록 주입되는 구조에서는 어떤 유량비율에서도 약간의 vortex가 발생했다. 수직방향의 유량이 감소될수록 기판에서 멀리서 발생했으며 강도 또한 감소했다. 기판 표면에서의 압력분포 균일도도 8:2에서 2.8%, 2:8에서 0.6%로 향상되었다. 2:8의 유량 비율에서 압력을 10에서 60 mTorr까지 향상시키면 vortex 효과는 감소되나 기판에서의 압력 균일도가 0.8%까지 약간 나빠졌다. 여기서 발생되는 vortex는 GDP 구조를 수평방향으로 주입되기 함으로서 해결할 수 있었으며, 압력 균일도도 0.2%까지 향상시킬 수 있었다. 또한, 강한 수직방향의 유량은 중심에 발생하는 플라즈마의 중앙을 밀어내는 효과를 확인했으며, 실험적 증명이 추후 연구단계로 진행될 예정이다. 식각 균일도나 식각 속도를 예측하려면 CF계열의 복잡한 가스를 사용해야하기 때문에 유량이 플라즈마에 미치는 영향을 보기 위해서 본 연구에서는 단일종인 Ar 가스만을 사용하였다. 첫 단계로 이와 같이 최적화시킨 유동조건에서 복잡한 식각가스를 이용한 플라즈마 계산은 다음 단계로 준비 중에 있다.

In HWAW method, experimental dispersion curve is obtained through time-frequency analysis, and inversion procedure is based on the forward modeling which considers full wavefield. Therefore, it enables us to use relatively short testing setup and has advantage for two dimensional subsurface imaging compared with another surface wave methods. Numerical study was performed to verify that the HWAW method can be applied to non-horizontally layerd soil structure. The experimental dispersion curves obtained from HWAW method agreed with the theoretical dispersion curves based on full wavefield. Experimental dispersion curves are mainly more affected by the region between two receivers than by the region from source to the first receiver. Fluctuation phenomena of dispersion curve can be reduced by adequate receiver spacing setup. From numerical study, it was thought that reliable Vs distribution map can be constructed by HWAW method and finally subsurface imaging was tried in the real field.

There is systematic spatial variations in environmental properties due to sensitive reaction to external conditions at plastic greenhouse occupied 99.2% of domestic agricultural facilities. In order to construct 3 dimensional distribution of temperature, relative humidity, CO₂ and illuminance, measurement matrix as 3 by 3 by 5 in direction of width, height and length, respectively, dividing indoor space of greenhouse was designed and tested at experimental site. Linear regression analysis was conducted to evaluate optimal estimation method in terms with horizontal and vertical variations. Even though sole measurement point for temperature and relative humidity could be feasible to assess indoor condition, multiple measurement matrix is inevitably required to improve spatial precision at certain time domain such as period of sunrise and sunset. In case with CO₂, multiple measurement matrix could not successfully improve the spatial predictability during a whole experimental period. In case with illuminance, prediction performance was getting smaller after a time period of sunrise due to systematic interference such as indoor structure. Thus, multiple sensing methodology was proposed in direction of length at higher height than growing bed, which could compensate estimation error in spatial domain. Appropriate measurement matrix could be constructed considering the transition of stability in indoor environmental properties due to external variations. As a result, optimal measurement matrix should be carefully designed considering flexibility of construction relevant with the type of property, indoor structure, the purpose of crop and the period of growth. For an instance, partial cooling and heating system to save a consumption of energy supplement could be successfully accomplished by the deployment of multiple measurement matrix.

This study was carried out to make fundamental data for structural safety test of pipe- houses. Experiment on the stress distribution of pipe- houses was conducted to find suitable structural analysis model by examination of end support conditions of pipe. Besides, the loading test and the pile driving test were done to find pull-out capacity and bearing capacity of pipe on the assumption that pipe is pile foundation. For single span pipe - house, the theoretical results assuming the end support condition of pipe is fixed under ground agreed closely with the experimental results of stress distribution. On the other hand for double span pipe -house, the end support conditions of pipe were fixed support when vertical load is applied, and hinged one when horizontal load is applied. The pull - out capacity and allowable bearing capacity of the pipe portion that was buried in the grounds that were soft soil of paddy field and medium or hard soils of dry field derived from experimental results.

Purpose of this study was a development of a sprayer arm auto control system that could be operated according to distance from pear trees for automation of pest control. Auto control system included two parts, hardware and software. First, controller was made with an MCU and relay switches. Two types of ultra-sonic sensors were installed to measure distance from pear trees: one on/off type that detect up to 3 m, and the other continuous type providing 0~5 V output corresponding to distance of 0~3 m. Second, an auto control algorithm was developed to control. Each spraying arm was controlled according to the sensor-based distance from the pear trees. And it could dodge obstacles to protect itself. Max and min signal values were eliminated, when five sensor signals was collected, and then signals were averaged to reduce sensor's noises. According to results of field experiment, auto control test result was better than non auto control test result. Spraying rates were 69.25% (left line) and 98.09% (right line) under non auto control mode, because pear trees were not planted uniformly. But, auto control test's results were 92.66% (left line) and 94.64% (right line). Spraying rate was increased by maintaining distance from tree.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of horizontal air flow produced by circulation fans on horizontal and vertical profiles of meteorological factors. The three-dimensional distributions of air speed, air temperature, relative humidity and carbon dioxide $(CO_2)$ concentration were measured with and without the fans in operation. The uniformity of the spatial distribution of meteorological factors decreased as the outside air temperature decreased. In "fans off" condition, spatial variations of $4.7^{\circ}C$ in air temperature, 19% in relative humidity were detected. When the fans were operated, these variations were reduced to 2.2 and 6.3%, respectively. As the fan capacity increased, the difference in air temperature among sampling points decreased. The fan capacity of $0.0104m^3{\cdot}s^{-1}{\cdot}m^{-2}$ was enough to obtain a reasonable air flow in greenhouse. The vertical profiles of air temperature and $CO_2$ concentration were reasonably uniform regardless of measurement height and fan capacity. Further researches on the position of fans to reduce the difference in air temperature along the width and the effects of using a larger number of smaller fans are required.

This study was conducted to provide basic data for the design of shading facility of greenhouse. The proper distance between external shading screen and roof surface, transmissivity of shading materials, and shading effects of external and internal shadings were analyzed. About a distance of 10 cm between inclined external shading screen and roof surface was enough to guarantee the external shading effect in the greenhouse without roof vent. The inside temperature of greenhouse installed with 85% internal shading screen was lower the maximum of 4$^{\circ}C$ and mean of 2$^{\circ}C$ than that with 55% internal shading screen in both natural ventilation and no ventilation condition. The difference of soil temperature between shading and no shading greenhouse was great, but the difference by shading rate or shading method was small. The performance of external shading for controlling inside temperature down was superior to that of the internal shading. The externally inclined shading screen parallel to the roof surface of greenhouse was more effective than the externally horizontal shading screen in controlling inside temperature of greenhouse without roof vent.

High-pressure sodium (HPS) lamps have been widely used as a useful supplemental light source to emit sufficient photosynthetically active radiation and provide a radiant heat, which contribute the heat requirement in greenhouses. The objective of this study to analyze the thermal characteristics of HPS lamp and thermal behavior in supplemented greenhouse, and evaluate the performance of a horizontal leaf temperature of sweet pepper plants using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation. We simulated horizontal leaf temperature on upper canopy according to three growth stage scenarios, which represented 1.0, 1.6, and 2.2 plant height, respectively. We also measured vertical leaf and air temperature accompanied by heat generation of HPS lamps. There was large leaf to air temperature differential due to non-uniformity in temperature. In our numerical calculation, thermal energy of HPS lamps contributed of 50.1% the total heat requirement on Dec. 2022. The CFD model was validated by comparing measured and simulated data at the same operating condition. Mean absolute error and root mean square error were below 0.5, which means the CFD simulation values were highly accurate. Our result about vertical leaf and air temperature can be used in decision making for efficient thermal energy management and crop growth.
