본 연구에서는 RLS(Rescursive Least Square) 추정 알고리즘을 이용하여 정전용량형 센서를 사용한 원격 RF 센서 시스템을 구현하고자 한다. IC 칩 형태의 원격 RF 센서 시스템이 가지는 구성의 복잡성 그리고 전력소모 문제를 해결하기 위해 보다 간단한 유도결합모델이 제안된다. 원격 RF 시스템은 페이저법을 이용하여 수학적으로 모델링되며, 모델기반의 RLS 알고리즘을 적용하기위해 시스템의 파라메타를 재배열한다. 오차 제곱합의 수렴특성을 가진 RLS 알고리즘을 이용하여 정전용량 파라메타를 추정한다. 실제 위상차를 측정하기 위해 Exclusive OR를 이용한 위상차 감지 장치를 제안한다. 센서로는 각종 환경 측정-습도, 압력 등-에 실제 활용되고 있는 정전용량형 센서를 채택한다. 잡음을 내포한 측정 데이터에 대한 추정 성능을 확인함으로써 그 유효성을 검증하고자 한다.

We investigated the characteristics of a capacitive nano-accelerometer based on carbon nanotube by means of classical molecular dynamics simulations. The position of the telescoping nanotube was controlled by the externally applied force and the feedback sensing was achieved from the capacitance change. Considering energy dissipation, the oscillation features of the nano-accelerometers were similar, regardless of their initial displacements. The capacitance variations, which were almost linearly proportional to the applied acceleration, were monitored within an error tolerance.

본 연구는 방사성 폐액의 처리를 목적으로 화학처리와 한외여과막(UF)의 결합공정에 의해서 세슘이온의 제거특성을 조사하였다. 이 공정은 대상핵종과 선택성이 크고 한외여과막에 의해서 분리가 가능한 거대분자를 주입하여 핵종을 결합시키고, 이를 한외여과막에 의해서 분리 제거하는 개념이다. 실험은 흡착제로서 K2Cu3(Fe(CN6)2)를 제조하여 주입하였고 회분식 UF stirred cell를 이용하였으며, 용액의 pH, 세슘이온의 농도 및 K2Cu3(Fe(CN6)2)의 농도에 따라 세슘이온의 제거효율을 측정하였다. 세슘의 제거효율은 pH 및 K2Cu3(Fe(CN6)2)의 몰비에 따라 결정되며, pH가 5∼6에서 높은 제거율을 나타내었고 Cs/K2Cu3(Fe(CN6)2)의 몰비가 1.5 이하에서 90% 이상 제거되었다. K2Cu3(Fe(CN6)2)에 대한 Cs의 결합특성은 Langmuir isotherm형태의 식으로 나타내어 평가하였으며, 이때 세슘이온의 최대 흡착용량은 1.72 mM/mM K2Cu3(Fe(CN6)2) 이었다.

유도결합 플라즈마 방전 시 사용되는 L형 임피던스 정합기(impedance matcher)의 경우 일반적으로 직렬 및 병렬 콘데서가 연결되어있으며, 임피던스 정합조건이 되었을때 전원과 안테나 사이에 있는 임피던스 정합기의 소자값이 특정 값을 가지게 된다. 유도결합 플라즈마를 진단하기 위한 여러 방법들이 연구되어 왔지만, 이러한 임피던스 정합조건과 플라즈마 내부 변수들의 상관 관계에 대한 연구는 보고된 바 없다. 본 연구에서는 유도결합 플라즈마의 임피던스 정합조건과 유도결합 플라즈마의 변압기 회로모델를 이용하여 플라즈마 저항 및 플라즈마 인덕턴스를 구하기 위한 관계식을 도출하고 임피던스 정합기의 직렬 및 병렬 콘덴서 용량값 측정하여 플라즈마 저항 및 플라즈마 인덕턴스값을 계산하였다. 결과 검증을 위해 다양한 압력 및 전력 조건에서 부유랑뮤어 탐침법을 이용하여 플라즈마 밀도를 측정해 비교해 보았으며, 두 결과의 경향성은 잘 일치함을 확인하였다.

In the paper, we suggest a simpler synthesis technique for capacitively-coupled match circuit(CCMC) which have a function of DC block and impedance matching simultaneously, and introduce a stability margin analysis technique for designing microwave amplifier under conditionally stable state. Stability margin analysis is used to determine optimum match point that ensure maximum gain under the given stability margin. It can reduce time consuming work for selecting match points in the conditionally stable state. Also, suggested miniaturization scheme of matching network is distinguished from previous work with respect to reducing deterministic parameters for CCMC synthesis. To verify utility of suggested method, 24 GHz gain block is fabricated under conditionally stable state using an internal thin-film fabrication process, Measured results show a stable gain of 10 dB and flatness of 1 dB, which is well coincident with simulated one.

In this paper, a novel rectangular patch antenna is proposed to have Zeroth Order Resonance(ZOR) generated based on the Metamaterial Complosite Right- and Left-Handed(CRLH) structure. Making the in-phase electric field over the entire antenna other than a half-wavelength as the fundamental resonance mode of a standard microstrip patch or its positive multiple, the metallic patch is suggested to be capacitively coupled with only one surrounding rectangular ring, different from the previous 1D ZOR antennas commonly having several metal cells in line. The performance of the proposed antenna is simulated by a 3D field solver that inputs the sizes of the physical structure corresponding to the equivalent circuit designed to have ZOR at 2.4 GHz. Consequently, the resonance frequency, the gain and the antenna efficiency are observed 2.4 GHz, 5 dB and 98%, respectively. Besides, the important property of the proposed antenna is addressed as the combination of the low profile as an advantage of microstrip patch antennas, and the omni-directional field pattern typical of monopole antennas.

The indirect-contact ECG measurement is a newly developed method for unconstrained and nonconscious measurement in daily life. This study introduced a new method of electrode circuit design developed for reducing the 60Hz power line noise observed at the indirect-contact ECG measurement. By the introduced common-mode-driven shielding, the voltage of the electrical shield surrounding the capacitive coupling electrode is maintained at the same as the common mode voltage. Though the method cannot reduce the level of common mode voltage itself, that reduces effectively the differential mode noise converted from the common mode voltage by the difference of cloth impedance between the two capacitive coupling electrode. The experiment results using the actual indirect-contact ECG showed that the 60Hz power line noise was reduced remarkably though the reduction ratio was smaller than the expected by the theory. Especially, the reduction ratio became large for the large difference of cloth. It is expected that the introduced method is useful for reducing the power line noise under condition of poor electrical grounding.

In this paper, the design method for a chipless RFID tag using ELC resonators is proposed. A four-bit chipless RFID tag is designed in a two by two array configuration using three ELC resonators with different resonant peak frequencies and one compact IDC resonator. The resonant peak frequency of the bistatic RCS for the IDC resonator is 3.125 GHz, whereas those of the three ELC resonators are adjusted to be at 4.225 GHz, 4.825 GHz, and 5.240 GHz, respectively, by using the gap between the capacitor-shaped strips in the ELC resonator. The spacing between the resonators is 1 mm. Proposed four-bit tag is fabricated on an RF-301 substrate with dimensions of 50 mm×20 mm and a thickness of 0.8 mm. It is observed from experiment results that the resonant peak frequencies of the fabricated four-bit chipless RFID tag are 3.290 GHz, 4.295 GHz, 4.835 GHz, and 5.230 GHz, respectively, which is similar to the simulation results with errors in the range between -2.3% and 0.2%.
