In this paper, a satellite array antenna operates at 12.2GHz~12.75GHz was designed and fabricated. The lowest height and high gain electrical beam tilt was obtained by applying backed slot and sub-reflector widening the distance between the patch and the GND. The simulation and measurement showed good agreements, the electrical beam tilt was $10^{\circ}$, the gain was 26.5dBi, the VSWR was less than 3:1 and the return loss was less than -15dB.

This study represented experimental research on the flat-plate solar collector. The heat performances were measured the tube array surface temperature by thermal-couple. The solar collector($W{\times}H$) of $580{\times}1100$, various tilt angles of 30, 45, 60 degree and the internal tube number of 4, 6, 8, 10(ea) were utilized in the present investigation. It is found that the thermal concentration is higher as the tilt angle become larger and the solar tubes are more and more. In this stuby obtained results of following: The array of tubes in collector has the best nice in that the number of tube is eight and the tilt angle is 60 degree. The collect energy by each tube array shown high value by increase the number of tubes and tilt angles. In addition to, the collect energy depends on by the tilt angle than the number of tube.

In solar generation, the PV array's azimuth is headed due south and the tilt is generally $33^{\circ}$ in order to acquire maximum generation. However, when installed in a site where there are buildings or other facilities, the azimuth and tilt are adjusted. Yet, when the azimuth and tilt are deviated from due south and $33^{\circ}$, the generation quantity is decreased substantially and currently a method to estimate the decreasing proportion is unavailable. Therefore, in this thesis, an equation on the "change ratio of solar radiation due to the changes in tilt and azimuth" was deduced by utilizing empirical data on the amount of solar radiation received according to the changes of tilt and azimuth and Interpolation. By using this equation, the decreasing proportion of generating quantity due to the installation methods of PV system can be estimated, therefore, it can be usefully utilized when designing and going through feasibility studies for development of solar generation systems.

In phased array antennas that scan elevation, the number of radiator rows is one of the important factors to minimizing both cost and weitht. Therefore, the antenna tilt angles having relation with element spacing are among the improtant design parameters. The exact optimum tilt angles for several types of uniformly and nonuniformly excited arrays are obtained theoretically. Four types of uniform linear arrays and Chebyshev array factors as a nonuniformly excited arrav are considered.

Given a cubic space, it is easy to uniformly illuminate the floor with light sources placed on top. However, little has been reported about uniform illumination on walls with the same configuration of light sources. Here we present a luminaire consisting of nine light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with perfect Lambertian distribution, placed on the top as a 3 × 3 rectangular LED array. The distances between LEDs and tilt angles of each individual LED are adjustable and optimized by an annealing algorithm. After optimization, the array produces a rectangular illumination pattern on one wall with a uniformity of about 89%. Analysis shows that the tilt angles of individual LEDs are key parameters for uniform side illumination. In a scenario that is more practical, the tilt angles of all the LEDs are set to be the same, only decreasing the uniformity to 83%.

In shallow water, the array invariant, known as the effective range estimation method, is developed based on the broadband dispersion characteristics in an ideal waveguide, which can be summarized by the waveguide invariant. It is robust enough to estimate both the array tilt and range simultaneously, even in situations where array tilt exists. Recently, it has been extended to fully consider the angle dependence of the waveguide invariant. However, applying the array invariant in range-dependent environments instead of range-independent environments can lead to range estimation errors due to bathymetry mismatch. In this paper, we interpret such range estimation errors by introducing the concept of effective range. Through numerical simulations and experimental data in a weakly range-dependent environment, we demonstrate the relationship between range estimation errors and effective range.

The amount of solar irradiation obtained by a photovoltaic (PV) solar panel is the major factor determining the power generated by a PV system, and the array tilt angle is critical for maximizing panel radiation acquisition. There are three types of PV systems based on the manner of setting the array tilt angle: fixed, semi-fixed, and tracking systems. A fixed system cannot respond to seasonal solar altitude angle changes, and therefore cannot absorb the maximum available solar radiation. The tracking system continually adjusts the tilt angle to absorb the maximum available radiation, but requires additional cost for equipment, installation, operation, and maintenance. The semi-fixed system is only adjusted periodically (usually seasonally) to obtain more energy than a fixed system at an overall cost that is less than a tracking system. To maximize semi-fixed system efficiency, determining the optimal tilt angle adjustment schedule are required. In this research, we conducted a simulation to derive an optimal operation schedule for a semi-fixed system in Seoul, Korea (latitude $37.5^{\circ}$). We implemented a solar radiation acquisition model and PV genereation model on MATLAB. The optimal operation schedule was derived by changing the number of tilt angle adjustments throughout a year using a Dynamic Algorithm. The results show that adjusting the tilt angle 4 times a year was the most appropriate. and then, generation amount of PV system increased 2.80% compared with the fixed system. This corresponds to 99% compared to daily adjustment model. This increase would be quite valid as the PV system installation area increased.

We present a numerical procedure that compensates for tilt phase aberration in in-line digital holography by computing the period of interference patterns in the reconstructed phase image. This method enables the reconstruction of correct and accurate phase information, even if strong tilt aberrations exist. Example applications of tilt aberration compensation are shown for a tilted plate, a micro-lens array, and a thin film transistor. This method is convenient because it uses only one hologram and no hardware to minimize the tilt aberration.
