In this paper, the design of a miniaturized wideband tapered slot antenna using slots combining various types of fan-shaped structures was studied. To miniaturize the tapered slot antenna and make it operate at low frequencies, slots combining fan-shaped structures were added to the ground plane of the tapered slot antenna. The miniaturization design process of the final proposed antenna was systematically explained by comparing the input reflection coefficient and gain variations when each fan-shaped structure was appended, compared to when there was no slot. The proposed miniaturized wideband tapered slot antenna using slots combining the fan-shaped structures was fabricated on an RF-35 substrate and its measured characteristics were compared with the simulation results. Experiment results show that the frequency band with a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) less than 2 was 2.59-11.39 GHz, and gain within the band was measured to be 3.3-7.0 dBi. The proposed miniaturized wideband tapered slot antenna can be reduced in size by 36.9%, compared to when there are no slots in the ground plane.

In this study, the influence of the near field, far field and radiation directivity of microstrip patch antenna when is used mushroom EBG(Electromagnetic Band Gap) as ground is investigated. Using characteristic of dispersion diagram of mushroom EBG, we calculated forbidden band(2.36GHz-2.85GHz) given mushroom type EBG microstrip antenna(2.45GHz) having 2-layer EBG that is operating within forbidden band. In oder to conform performance enhancemen of antenna using EBG ground, we have compared with the antenna using PEC(Perfect Electric Conductor) ground. We could know about 2.74dB increment of the radiation directivity, because EBG can suppress surface wave that is generated at interfaces of the dielectrics-conductor.

This paper proposes a uni-planar elliptical element UWB antenna with band-notched characteristic and modified pound plane fed by CPW. The antenna achieves VSWR below 2 for UWB band(3.1 GHz${\~}$10.6 GHz). In addition, a band-notched characteristic is achieved by inserting a horizontal slot on the radiation element to avoid the interference with 5 GHz(5.15 GHz${\~}$5.825 GHz) band limited by IEEE 802.1la. The antenna has a thin profile, compact size, and ease of manufacture by adopting a CPW feed structure without any additional background plane. Measured data show that the proposed antenna has good return loss below -10 dB, about 2.1 dB${\~}$4.75 dB maximum gain over the bandwidth, omni-directional radiation patterns, linear phase response.

In this paper, a novel hexagonal-shaped electromagnetic bandgap(EBG) power plane for the suppression of the ground bounce noise(GBN) in high-speed circuits is proposed. The proposed structure consists of hexagonal-shaped unit cells and detoured bridges connecting the unit cells. The hexagonal-shaped unit cells could omni-directionally suppress the GBN in digital circuits. The fabricated power plane's omni-directional -30 dB suppression bandwidth is from 330 MHz to 5.6 GHz. Then the proposed structure suppresses electromagnetic interference(EMI) caused by the GBN within the stopband. As a result, the proposed structure is expected to be conducive solving EMI problem in high-speed circuits.

We have fabricated high-T$_c$ superconducting YBa$_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}\;/SrTiO_3/\;YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ (YBCO/STO/YBCO) multilayer structure on (001) $SrTiO_3$ substrate by using pulsed laser deposition technique for applying to ground plane of single flux quantum digital circuits. In this structure, the top and bottom YBCO layers were connected through the holes in the STO insulating layer. The critical temperature of the two YBCO layers connected each other was 86 K after annealing at 500 $^{\circ}C$ in $O_2$ atm for about 60 hr. This result shows that the annealing process is very important fabricating YBCO/STO/YBCO multilayer structure An experiment to optimize the fabrication process of YSCO/ST0/YBCO multilayer structure with good quality is in progress.

최근 무선통신 시스템의 소형화로 인해 안테나의 소형화가 요구되고 있다. 안테나의 소형화 방법에는 여러 가지가 있지만 이득과 효율을 고려할 때 고유전율의 유전체를 사용하기보다는 안테나 자체의 구조적 변형을 통해 안테나를 소형화하는 것이 더 효과적이다. 따라서, 본 논고에서는 마이크로스트립 안테나의 2차원 구조 변형과 3차원으로 화장된 구조변형에 의한 안테나의 소형화 방법에 대한 연구 결과에 대해 기술하였다. 2차적 구조 변형 방법에는 패치를 구부리거나 slit을 넣는 방법을 사용하여 그 크기를 축소시켰으나 소형화에 한계가 있었다. 그래서, 마이크로스트립 안테나의 패치와 접지면 사이의 공간을 활용하는 perturbation 효과를 바탕으로 3차원의 corrugation, iris, folded 구조를 이용하여 더욱 소형화된 안테나를 설계하였다. 또한, 2차원 구조의 소형화 방법에 3차원으로 확장한 구조를 서로 결합하여 안테나를 더욱 소형화 할 수 있었다. 이에 마이크로스트립 안테나의 소형화 방법과 그에 따라 설계·제작한 안테나에 대해 소개하고자 한다.

In this paper, a dual-band circular ring monopole antenna with stub and ground slot for is proposed WLAN(Wireless Local Area Networks) applications. The proposed antenna is based on a planar monopole design, and composed of one circular ring of radiating patches, and modified feed line, and rectangular slot in the ground plane for dual-band operation. To obtain the optimized parameters, we used the simulator, Ansoft's High Frequency Structure Simulator(HFSS) and found the parameters that effect antenna characteristics. Using the obtained parameters, the antenna is fabricated, and the return loss coefficient, gain, and radiation patterns are determined for WLAN application.

A two-arm microstrip spiral antenna with a circular aperture on the ground plane that generates a circularly polarized conical beam is presented in this paper. We obtained circularly polarized conical beam by using two spirals that are excited in-phase from the microstrip feed lines. The main beam directions of the conical beam from the broadside are approximately 40$^{\circ}$ in the range from 5 GHz to 6.5 GHz, and 58$^{\circ}$ from 9 GHz to 11 GHz. Since the proposed antenna has omni-directional conical beam pattern, it is suitable for use in mobile communication systems.

In this paper, a method for analyzing the dielectric constant of a planar substrate is proposed. To this end, a band-stop filter was created by adding a H-shaped resonant aperture to the ground plane of a microstrip transmission line. A planar substrate of 2 mm thickness was placed behind the ground plane of the microstrip transmission line and the change of the resonant frequency with the change of the dielectric constant of the substrate was investigated. It can be seen that the change ratio of the frequency to the reference resonant frequency is larger than that of the conventional complementary split ring resonator structure.
