In this paper, a highly efficiency power amplifier is presented for multi-band antenna system. The class F power amplifier operating in dual-band designed with one LDMOSFET. An operating frequency of power amplifier is 900 MHz and 2.14 GHz respectively Matching networks and harmonic control circuits of amplifier are designed by using the unit cell of composite right/left-handed(CRLH) transmission line(TL) realized with lumped elements. The CRLH TL can lead to metamaterial transmission line with the dual-band holing capability. The dual-band operation of the CRLH TL is achieved by the frequency offset and the nonlinear phase slope of the CRLH TL for the matching network of the power amplifier. Because the control of all harmonic components for high efficiency is very difficult, we have controled only the second- and third-harmonics to obtain the high efficiency with the CRLH TL. Also, the proposed power amplifier has been realized by using the harmonic control circuit for not only the output matching network, but also the input matching network for better efficiency.

This paper proposes a single-input multiple-output (SIMO) self-resonant wireless power transmission system for transmitting power to multiple receivers and the characteristics are simulated and measured. A 600 mm diameter transmission single loop, a 600 mm diameter helical transmission resonant coil, an external diameter 900 mm planar spiral reception resonant coil, and an $80{\times}60mm^2$ flat plate square coil as a receiver are used to form a wireless power transmission system 600 mm away with the table structure. For optimal characteristics, the wireless power transmission coils are designed by EM simulation and equivalent circuit analysis, and the characteristics are simulated and measured. The variation of the efficiency with distance from the center of the spiral resonant coil is analyzed and the measured efficiency is 57% for one receiver and for the two receivers, the efficiency is 37% for each receiver.

In this paper, using the globular structure designed and implemented for the transmitter and the receiver resonant wireless power transfer(WPT). The coil of the transmitter was proposed to emit a magnetic energy in three-dimensional space by winding a ball shape. Each side of the transmitter has been designed to obtain a high Q value by a spiral structure. This solves the problem that the transfer efficiency decreases rapidly depending on the location in the conventional WPT. The resonance frequency is used 6.78 MHz and the distance between the trasnitter and the receiver is 200 mm. The transfer efficiency of the proposed WPT system is higher than 40% at all direction.

본 논문에서는 400kHz 10kW RF Source와 최대전력전달을 하기 위해 가변임피던스 정합기를 이용하여 파워 소스를 준비하였고, 송수신코일은 EE71형태의 페라이트코어에 테프론 와이어를 결선하여 구성하였다. 본 연구에서는 MF대역의 주파수를 이용하므로 자기유도방식을 채택하였다. 무선전력전송에서는 최대로 전력이 전달하기 위하여 송수신 코일과 부하간에 임피던스 매칭이 필수적으로 필요하다. 매칭이 원할하지 않을 경우 RF Source에 반사전력이 반사되어 심각한 손상을 발생할 수 있으며, 수신부 코일의 부하단에 최대로 전력이 전달되지 않을 뿐만 아니라 전체 시스템 효율이 나빠지게 된다 본 연구에서는 임피던스 정합기를 이용하여 자기유도방식에서 최적의 송수신 전송 조건을 도출하였다.

In this paper, we evaluate the performance of multi-hop transmissions in IEEE 802.15.6 ultra wide band (UWB) wireless body area network (WBAN). The packet structure in the physical layer, and encoding and decoding are considered for multi-hop transmissions in IEEE 802.15.6 UWB WBAN. We analyze the data success rate and energy efficiency of multi-hop transmissions with considering the length of data payload, transmission power, and distances between the nodes in IEEE 802.15.6 UWB WBAN. Through simulations, we evaluate the data success rate and energy efficiency of multi-hop transmissions with varying the length of data payload, transmission power, and distances between the nodes in IEEE 802.15.6 UWB WBAN. Finally, we can select an energy-efficient multi-hop transmission in IEEE 802.15.6 UWB WBAN depending on the length of data payload, transmission power, and distances between the nodes.

High-power wireless transmission system becomes a key technology for the advance of battery-powered devices. The wireless power transfer devices are currently dominated by the inductive and capacitive wireless power transfer systems, which have relatively low power transmission capacity and low efficiency rather than the wired power transmission. The work presented in this paper proposes an alternative method of high-power transmission system, based on a variable speed motor system with a magnetic coupling. It enables high-capacity power transmission, high efficiency, and low possibility of failures, and the performance of the proposed scheme is verified by simulation and experiments.

In this paper, a novel dual-band high-efficiency class-F power amplifier using the composite right/left-handed (CRLH) transmission lines (TLs) has been realized with one RF Si lateral diffusion metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor (LDMOSFET). The CRLH TL can lead to metamaterial transmission line with the dual-band tuning capability. The dual-band operation of the CRLH TL is achieved by the frequency offset and the nonlinear phase slope of the CRLH TL for the matching network of the power amplifier. Because the control of the all harmonic components is very difficult in dual-band, we have managed only the second- and third-harmonics to obtain the high efficiency with the CRLH TL in dual-band. Also, the proposed power amplifier has been realized by using the harmonic control circuit for not only the output matching network, but also the input matching network for better efficiency. Two operating frequencies are chosen at 880 MHz and 1920 MHz in this work. The measured results show that the output power of 39.83 dBm and 35.17 dBm was obtained at 880 MHz and 1920 MHz, respectively. At this point, we have obtained the power-added efficiency (PAE) of 79.536 % and 44.04 % at two operation frequencies, respectively.

본 논문에서는 무선 통신을 이용하는 u-Health 시스템에서 생체신호를 측정하여 전송하는 센서의 전력 소모를 줄이기 위해 심전도 데이터의 에너지 효율적인 전송기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 심전도 데이터 중에서 중요한 데이터만을 따로 추출하여 전송하는 기법과 측정되는 심전도 데이터의 위험도에 따라 동적으로 데이터의 정확도를 조절함으로서 전송되는 데이터의 양을 조절하는 기법이다. 이러한 기법은 평소에는 전송하는 심전도 데이터의 양을 줄여 전력 소모를 줄여 센서의 수명을 연장하지만 위험시에는 정확한 데이터를 전송하여 데이터의 신뢰도를 높이는 장점을 갖는다.

There have been lots of researches on the optimal relay selection in relay-based systems. However, most researches have been focused on the maximization of transmission capacity with a constraint of sum power at both transmitter and relays. In Ad-hoc networks where relays have batteries of limited power, it is imperative to minimize the energy consumption while maintaining the required quality-of-service (QoS). In this paper, we propose an optimal relay selection strategy to minimize the relay power consumption while satisfying the required signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Through intensive simulations, we show the proposed method is more effective in terms of energy consumption and guarantee lower transmission failure probability in multi-hop Ad-hoc environments.

In this paper a dual-band Class-E power amplifier using Composite Right-/Left-Handed transmission lines and PIN diode is proposed. Dual-band operation is achieved by the frequency offset and nonlinear phase slope of CRLH TL for the matching network of power amplifiers. The proposed power amplifier has been realized by using in the input and the output matching network for high power added efficiency. PIN diode has been used to obtain the dual-band of power amplifier. The measured results show that output powers of 42.17 dBm and 41.43 dBm were obtained at 800 MHz and 1900 MHz, respectively. At this frequency, we have obtained the power-added efficiency(PAE) of 67.84 % and 65.31 % in two operation frequencies, respectively.
