This paper presents an improvement of field uniformity in a reverberation chamber with QRDs(Quadratic Residue Diffuser) and also shows the optimal dimension of the QRDs. The QRD is designed for $1{\sim}3\;GHz$ frequency band and the FDTD(finite-Difference Time-Domain) method is used to analyze the field characteristics. At 2 GHz, the standard deviation of test volume in the reverberation chamber is the smallest when the QRD has $30{\sim}60\;%$ coverage of one side of the reverberation chamber and the field uniformity is worsened when the coverage of the QRD is either below 20 % or above 70 % of the area of the side wall. Particularly, the standard deviation of test volume in the reverberation chamber with 30 % coverage of QRD is improved by 1.53 dB compared to that of the reference chamber with no QRDs.

In this paper, cruciform radiation pattern antenna was designed and fabricated. The fabricated antenna is applicable to intersections which is composed of four eight-lane roads each having 60 m of width and 200 m of length. The design theory was based on Woodward-Lawson method and the 6 monopole elements with the strip feeding network are made by linear array on the micro-strip board. In the results, - 13.5 dB of return loss and 120 MHz(6 %) of -10 dB bandwidth were obtained at the 2 GHz. Also, at 1.95 GHz, -6 dB of gain fall was seen at $\pm$45$^{\circ}$ and thus, it is possible to say that the presented antenna has well-shaped cruciform radiation pattern.

In this paper, we have designed microstrip antenna if 800[MHz] band It will be able to integrate TRS(Trunked Radio System), GSM(Global System for Mobile telecommunication) band including the CDMA(Code Division Multiple Access) band we designed repeater and a base station antenna which is possible at the ship and marine of safety. It is improves a narrow bandwidth problem of microstrip antenna. It had U-shaped feeding structure at a rectangular patch And ground or feeding structure used between dielectric constant(${\varepsilon}_T$ = 2.1), patch or feeding structure used between dielectric constant(${\varepsilon}_T$ =1). So it used a duplex resonance effect Designed frequency bandwith(V5WR 2:1) if the antenna showed good characteristic of $780[MHz]{\sim}1.83[GHz]$ to 2.61[GHz]. Also the E-plan and H-plan all profit 9.4[dBi] above, the 3[dB] beam width showed the characteristic over the E-plan and H-plan $60^{\circ}$ to be improved.

2-6 GHz digital phase shifter module has been designed and fabricated. For the broadband operation and performance, MMIC phase shifter chip for phase shifter module was designed and fabricated by using the reflection-type circuits with Lange coupler.

Computer controlled measurement systems are realized in order to get the measured data of 32 phase states. The RMS insertion phase error and the average insertion loss deviation among 8${\times}$8 modules for the phased-array system are less than ${\pm}$0.5$^{\circ}$and ${\pm}$0.5 dB, respectively. The size of fabricated phase shifter module is 45 ${\times}$ 22.5 ${\times}$60㎣.

In this paper, a wideband slot antenna with corrugated structure antenna is proposed. The proposed antenna consists of a ground plane with corrugated slot and microstrip feed-line. Even with a limited dimension of $70{\times}70{\times}1.6mm$, the proposed antenna has wide bandwidth due to the longer current path formed by the corrugated slot structure. Measured bandwidth(10 dB return loss) and fractional bandwidth of the proposed antenna are 2,180 MHz(2.5~4.68 GHz) and 60.7 % at the center frequency of 3.59 GHz. The proposed antenna has an omni-directional radiation pattern and measured gains and average efficiency were 3.48~5.83 and dBi, 81.55 %, respectively.

In this paper, an antenna which has dipole-like radiation pattern and low profile is proposed. The antenna is composed of four elements slot array based on L-shaped 0.43 $\lambda_g$ slot element. It presents a omni-directional radiation patter in the azimuth plane and has a null toward broad-side direction. In the design, a small mono-pole antenna which acts as a large capacitance element, combined with the partially removed ground plane by four L-shaped slots. As a result, these structure act as a LC resonator for radiation. The measured result shows, the impedance bandwidth(VSWR$\leq$2) of the proposed antenna is 60 MHz(2.35$\sim$2.41 GHz). The measured maximum radiation gain and efficiency of proposed antenna is 0.02 dBi, 56.7 % at center frequency 2.38 GHz, respectively. The proposed antenna can be applied to wireless tan access point system.

In this paper, a monopole antenna applicable to WLAN standardization is designed, fabricated, and tested. The proposed antenna is designed to have three microstrip lines based on microstrip feeding method and inserted one stub to enhance impedance characteristics. Then, it obtained triple band characteristics of the proposed antenna. We adjusted and optimized the lengths and width of the three microstrip lines and one inserted stub to obtain the required impedance bandwidth for this paper. The proposed antenna has $23.0mm(W){\times}53.1mm(L1)$ on a dielectric substrate of $24.0mm(W1){\times}60.0mm(L){\times}1.0mm$ size. From the fabrication and measurement results, bandwidths of 158 MHz (841 to 1000 MHz) for 900 MHz band, 630 MHz (2.32 to 2.95 GHz) for 2400 MHz band, and 1,040 MHz (4.95 to 5.99 GHz) for 5000 MHz band were obtained based on the impedance bandwidth. The fabricated antenna also obtained the measured gain and radiation pattern characteristics in the required triple band of the proposed antenna.

A method for designing a DDQYA fed by a CPW is proposed in this paper. The proposed CPW-fed DDQYA consists of two series-connected strip dipoles, a ground reflector, and a strip-pair director. Instead of the conventional microstrip feed line in which the signal line is located on the substrate opposite to the antenna, a CPW is used because CPW is located on the same side with the antenna, and so the fabrication is easy. The strip-pair director is composed of two horizontally-separated strips, and it is added above the second dipole to enhance the gain in the high frequency region. A prototype of the proposed CPW-fed DDQYA is fabricated on an FR4 substrate. The fabricated antenna has a frequency band of 1.66-3.38 GHz(68.3%) for a voltage standing wave ratio < 2, and measured gain ranges 5.0-7.3 dBi over a frequency band of 1.60-2.90 GHz.
