In this paper, the measurement method of the decoupling performance of a underwater decoupling material is studied. First, the simple vibro-acoustic coupled model of a multi-layered underwater decoupling material attached to a plate is analytically derived using impedance transfer matrix. Two test methods are introduced using the theoretical expression of the simple model. One is based on the ratio of the plate vibration and the radiated pressure under impact excitation of the plate. The other is based on the reciprocity theorem and uses the ratio of the incident pressure and the plate vibration under projector excitation in water. Some measurements are carried out according to the test methods using a pulse tube. The test results show the advantages and disadvantages of two methods. It is also shown that the combination of impact and projector excitation methods may be a useful tool to evaluate the performance of a underwater decoupling material.

This paper describes the design, fabrication, and measurement of a compact hexa-band coupling antenna for 4G mobile handset using a small element with two slots. In order to obtain sufficient bandwidth (LTE700, GSM850, GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900, UMTS) with a Voltage Standing Wave Ratio $(VSWR){\leq}3:1$, two slots are inserted in the small element, and coupling patch is used. The measured result of the fabricated antenna provides 410MHz bandwidth form 0.688 to 1.098GHz and 643 MHz bandwidth form 1.607 to 2.250GHz (${\leq}VSWR 3:1$) with the gain ranging from -0.52 to 4.68 dBi. Also, a good radiation pattern is achieved within the hexa-band (0.698-0.960GHz and 1.710-2.170GHz) range.

Novel system-on-package (SOP) - D technology to improve the mechanical and thermal properties of a MCM-D substrate was suggested. Based on this investigation, the two types of band pass filters for the V-band application with unique structure were designed and implemented using 2-metals, 3-BCB layers. The first type using distributed resonator had the insertion loss below 2.6 dB at 55 GHz and group delay was below 0.06 ns. For the second type with edge coupled structure, the insertion loss and group delay were 3 dB and 0.1 ns, respectively. Suggested MCM-D substrate with band pass filter can be used to evaluate mm-Wave system including flip-chip bonded MMIC.

This paper proposes a rectifier using bootstrapping and active body biasing in $0.11{\mu}m$ RF CMOS process. The proposed rectifier employs the full-wave rectifying structure with cross coupling and increases the power conversion efficiency by reducing the threshold voltage and leakage current using bootstrapping and active bias biasing. Also, it has been designed to be applied to a wide range of applications from 13.56 MHz used in wireless power transmission to 915 MHz used in RFID. As a measured result, 80 % of power conversion efficiency is obtained when the input power is 0 dBm at $10k{\Omega}$ load resistance and 13.56 MHz. Also 40 % of power conversion efficiency is shown in 915 MHz.

In this work, an aperture-coupled patch array antenna with wideband characteristics was designed and arrayed in a $4{\times}1$ S-band. The designed antenna structure consists of two layers, and it possesses wideband characteristics achieved using coupling between the two layers. The first layer is comprised of four radiation patches and the second layer has an aperture and a ground plane. The antenna structure possesses 15 % wideband characteristics and the center frequency is at 3.2 GHz. A phase shifter was added to the array antenna to enable beam steering. The proposed phase array antenna was fabricated and measured. Our proposed design enables beam steering up to $35^{\circ}$.

Business entities with which most service components interact are kind of cross-cutting concerns in a multi-layered distributed application architecture. When business entities are modified, service components related to them should also be modified, even though they implement common functions of the application framework. This paper proposes what we call DTT (Data Type-Tolerant) component model to process the variability of business entities, or externalized data, which feature modern application architectures. The DTT component model expresses the data variability of product lines at the implementation level by means of SCDTs (Self-Contained Data Types) and variation point interfaces. The model improves the efficiency of application engineering through data type converters which support type conversion between SCDTs and business entities of particular applications. The value of this model lies in that data and functions are coupled locally in each component again by allowing service components to deal with SCDTs only instead of externalized business eutities.

In this study, a 40 GHz band pass filter(BPF) employing a hair-pin structure has been designed, fabricated, and characterized for millimeter-wave wireless communication applications. Using the 3 dimensional(3-D) electromagnetic(EM) tool and design equations of the hairpin BPF, the BPF was desgned on the 5 mil-thick Duroid substrate(RT5880) with a relative dielectric constant (${\varepsilon}_r$) of 2.2. The tapping point (t) of the U-shape resonator in the input and output port has been determined using extracted an external Q-factor ($Q_e$). The coupling coefficients between the other resonators are calculated by adjusting the physical dimensions for the desired response of the BPF. The fabricated BPF was characterized using probing method on a probe station. Its measured center frequency(fc) and fractional BW are 41.6 GHz and 7.43 %, respectively. The measured return loss is below -10 dB at the pass band and the insertion loss is 3.87 dB. The fabricated BPF is as small as $9.1{\times}2.8mm^2$.

BN ceramics with 0.07wt% $V_{2}O_{5}$ and 0.03wt% CuO(BNC3V7) sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ where it is possible for these to be co-fired with Ag electrode. Dielectricconstant of 44.3, TCF of 22 ppm$/^{\circ}C$ and $Qxf_{o}$ value of 22,000 GHz can be obtained from BNC3V7, multilayer type band pass filters using tapped method and conventional method were designed for PCS (Personal Communication System) applications. Tapped method by adopting input/output-tapping scheme the chip filter stucture becomes simpler and needs fewer layers than that using the conventional input/output-coupling scheme. A multilayer type band pass filter fabricated by screen-printing with silver electrode after tape casting. The simulated characteristics of the fabricated filters sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ were compared with the designed ones. Even though the centered frequencies of tapped and conventional band pass chaip filters were measured to shift about 90MHz downward, the band pass characteristics of both filters were similar that of designed ones. The spuriousresonance characteristic of tapped pass chip filter was better than that of conventional chip filer.

In this paper, we designed and implemented a PIFA(Planar Inverted F Antenna) + IFA(Inverted F Antenna) hybrid MIMO(Multi Input Multi Output) antenna for the hexa mobile communication service band. By the simultaneous operation both PIFA and IFA using the coupled feeding structure, we tried for application to modern mobile phones that have large ground size. A PIFA is applied to the ground area, and an IFA is applied to no ground small space on top of the phone. A diagonal fed MIMO antenna is implemented PCB embedded type without antenna carrier component. Implemented antenna on the bare board measured within 3 : 1 for VSWR under hexa mobile communication band as CDMA, GSM900, DCS, KPCS, USPCS, and WCDMA. Measured average gains and efficiencies were -5.19~-3.16 dBi and 30.27~48.26 % for the CDMA, GSM900 band, and -9.50~-5.19 dBi and 11.23~30.28 % for the DCS, KPCS, USPCS, WCDMA band. It's shown that studied antenna can be applied to the antenna for the modern mobile phone.

In this paper, we propose a double-faced window printed antenna for aircraft applications. The proposed antenna structure consists of a feeding line and a multi-loop radiator located on different sides of the window to use the limited given-area effectively. The proposed antenna is optimized by the genetic algorithm in conjunction with the FEKO EM simulator. The optimized antenna is built and installed on a 1/10 sized KUH-Surion mock-up and antenna performances such as the reflection coefficient and the radiation patterns are measured. The optimized antenna shows a half power matching bandwidth of about 33 % at 60 MHz and an average bore-sight gain of about -3.49 dBi. To verify the reception capability of the optimized antenna, we simulated the received power according to a flight scenario. The result confirms that the optimized antenna shows a minimum received power level above -60 dBm at a range of 200 km, which is similar to the pole antenna that is currently used as a FM voice antenna for KUH-Surion.
