Yaw-checking and course-keeping ability in IMO's ship manoeuvrability standards is reviewed from the viewpoint cf sole navigation Three kinds of virtual series-ships, which have different course instability, are taken as test models. The numerical simulation on Z-test is carried out in order to examine the correlation between known manoeuvrability in spiral characteristics and various kinds of overshoot angle. Then simulator experiments are executed with series-ships in a curoed, narrow waterway by six operators(five active pilots and one ex-captain) in order to examine the correlation between known manoeuvrability and degree of manoeuvring difficulty. IMO criteria for yaw-checking and course-keeping ability are discussed and revised criteria are proposed.

In this paper digital phase-shifter for multi-arm spiral antennas was designed by using Hilbert transform. All frequency components in input signal are phase-shifted for 90 degree by Hilbert transform, and the transform is implemented by FIT and IFIT. Digital phase-shifter generates two signals with phase difference of 90 degree by using Hilbert transform from input signals sampled by analog-digital converter(ADC), and then the input signal is phase-shifted for a given phase by using two signals. Hilbert transform based on digital phase-shifter is designed by Xilinx System generator, and the effects of input noise, FIT point, sampling period, initial phase of input signal, and shifted phase are simulated and its results are compared with Matlab results.

In this paper, we present the direction finding accuracy of correlative interferometer method and amplitude-phase comparison method. Spiral antennas are used for amplitude-phase comparison method and blade antennas are used for correlative interferometer method. Those are made for uniform circular array (UCA) direction finding antenna systems. We simulate the accuracy of azimuth angle with 3 antennas UCA when SNR is 20 dB and baseline is 0.5 wave length. Correlative interferometer method has better accuracy than amplitude-phase comparison method.

In this paper, we propose a novel sub-wavelength unit cell metamaterial absorber using multi-layer structure. The proposed absorber consists of 4 layers, and each layer has a spiral resonator connected by a via hole. This structure increases inductance of the unit cell, and therefore the resonant frequency can shift to lower frequency. We optimized the proposed absorber, and the electrical size of the unit cell is dramatically reduced to 0.013 times of the wavelength. The performance of the proposed absorber is demonstrated with full-wave simulation and measurement results. An absorption rate exceeding 97% is achieved at 1.74GHz. In addition, the proposed absorber attains a high absorption rate of 90% for different polarization and incident angles.

A defect detection test was performed for a conductor using a amorphous wire sensor head. A uniform magnetic field was applied in the space between the most inner conductors of a spiral-typed coil. The conductor with a defect was placed on the space between the most inner conductors of spiral-typed coil. The defect can be detected from the differences of induced voltage measured in the vicinity of gap of the conductor. The induced voltage difference of 2.5mV was measured in the gap vicinity of the 1mm thick conductor having 0.5mm gap in the frequency region of 100kHz~600kHz.

This paper presents the characteristics of the electromagnetically coupled small broadband disk-loaded monopole antenna with multiple shorting pins. The electromagnetically coupled monopole antenna can achieve broad bandwidth by controlling resonant frequency of the rectangular disk-loaded monopole and a probe with the spiral strip line monopole. The number and arrangement of the shorting pin affect the capacitance of the disk. The variation of the capacitance changes resonant frequency of the antenna, and therefore, its electrical sizes and frequency bandwidth are also affected. The antenna with three shorting pins has a volume of $0.094\lambda_0{\times}0.094\lambda_0{\times}0.094\lambda_0$ in electrical length and the frequency bandwidth of $26.8\%\;for\;VSWR\leq2$ with the center frequency at 2.556 GHz.

In this paper, the compact antenna for handsets is designed using FR-4 substrate for LTE(905-960 MHz), WCDMA(1922.8-2167.2 MHz), DCS(1710.2-1879.8 MHz), US-PCS(1850.2-1989.8 MHz), WLAN(2400-2483 MHz). The CPW line with many advantages and a spiral geometry for miniaturization is proposed. Widths of a spiral line are constant, and three stubs are added to broaden the bandwidth. Lengths and widths of three stubs are gradually changed. And proposed antenna is optimized for VSWR<3, designed, and fabricated. The dimension of this antenna is only $40{\times}30{\times}1mm3$ which is compact. It has been demonstrated by experiment that the compact planar antenna can be used as the mobile communication LTE antenna for 4G.

The use of energy pile foundation has been increased for economic utilization of geothermal energy. In particular, a coil-shaped ground heat exchanger (GHE) is preferred than conventional U-shaped heat exchanger to ensure better efficiency of heat exchange rate. This paper presents experimental results by changing different pitch spaces of spiral coils. Joomunjin sand was filled in a steel box of which the size was $5m{\times}1m{\times}1m$. Thermal response tests (TRTs) were conducted to measure the ground thermal conductivity with temperatures of circulating water using line source model and ring coil model. Experimental results and analytical solutions were compared to validate the applicability of these models. Ring coil model showed more accurate similar results with experimental data rather than line source model and cylindrical source model.

In this paper, We describe antenna characteristics for efficiently detecting human signs using small, planar and low power antenna. Then we can measure biological signals including respiration, heart rate, blood pressure, and blood sugar, using UWB (Ultra Wide Band) pulses, while does not contact the human body. The antenna need stable and wideband impedance characteristic, because it use gaussian pulse signal. Usually it has trade-off between wideband impedance and gain. But we don't considered array type antennas because we want to need small size. Generally the antennas that classified as frequency independent satisfy our requirements. Frequency independent antennas include spiral, log-periodic, sinuous, and etc. These antennas are possible to have shape planar type. In this paper, We tested these kind antenna's characteristics in center frequency 5 GHz, Especially circular patch and sinuous antenna designed and analyzed.

Ac magnetic field was changed in the vicinity of a flaw because of the distribution of eddy current within a conductor, when the magnetic field was applied to a conductor having a flaw. The flaw detection was performed by using Co-based amorphous wire sensor head. The wire has almost 0 magneto-striction and high permeability. An comparative uniform magnetic field was applied to a 1㎜ thick copper plate and a 25㎛ thick aluminum sheet conductor using spiral typed coil. The size of the coil has 40㎜$\times$40㎜ outer width and 8㎜$\times$8㎜ inner width. The copper plate and the aluminum sheet has 0.5㎜ and 0.1㎜ wide gap, respectively. The frequency range of applied field was 100㎑∼600㎑. The induced voltage difference of 2.5㎷ was obtained in the maximum voltage and minimum one measured across the gap of the 1mm thick conductor. In the case of aluminum sheet, 0.4㎷ was obtained. From this results, the effectiveness of Co-based amorphous wire was confirmed in the ECT technique.
