This paper is to investigate the influence of the endface quality on the loss characteristics of a plastic optical fiber connector for in-car network service. Using the parameters of the surface roughness and applied load, insertion loss of connector is measured. Due to scattering and change of refractive index, an optimal condition for low-loss coupling exists. We present the optimal condition as surface roughness $R_{rms}$ = 8 nm and contact load up to 50 N.

A modified boost converter with magnetic coupling is presented to reduce the reverse recovery loss while maintaining low conduction loss of the rectifiers. By utilizing a coupled inductor and a set of diodes, the current passing the boost rectifier is transferred to an auxiliary loop before turn-off, allowing low di/dt for reduced recovery loss. Moreover, the boost inductor is brought inside the bridge rectifier to reduce conduction loss by decreasing the number of conducting diodes during switch turn-off. Experimental results of a 500W prototype are provided to verify the increase in efficiency and validity of the proposed converter.

In this paper, the dielectric properties of epoxy composites used for transformers are studied. The dielectric permittivity and loss of specimen are measured at the frequency range of 30[Hz]∼1[MHz] about temperature 20[$^{\circ}C$],100[$^{\circ}C$] and 140[$^{\circ}C$] respectively from a series of experiments. When the filler is added, between epoxy and silica is formed interface. Therefore, observed higher values of dielectric permittivity and loss in filled epoxy are attributed to MWS polarization effect. Also, glass transition temperature was shifted to higher temperature and value of dielectric permittivity and loss were decreased due to 2nd curing. Deformation of interfacial state is improved and value of dielectric permittivity and loss were decreased at low frequency region by the surface treatment of fillers with silane coupling agents.

According to convert from analogue TV signal to Digital TV signal on 31 December 2012, research on utilization of TV white space (TVWS) has been being actively proceed. It is expected that various low power devices use the TVWS, so interference between DTV relay system and low power devices using in TVWS can be occurred. Therefore, in this paper, we analyzed the interference between DTV relay system and low power devices. So, we calculated a minimum coupling loss (MCL) and compare the resulting value with a path loss for determining whether there exists a potential interference or not. The minimum separation distance is determined when the path loss is larger than the MCL. In the simulation results, we setup the victim and interferer system as DTV relay system and low power devices, respectively.

This paper presents a capacitor loaded tunable bandpass chip filter using multiple split ring resonators (MSRRs) with two transmission zeros. To obtain high selectivity and minimize the chip size, asymmetric feed lines are adopted to make a pair of transmission zeros located on each side of passband. Compared with conventional filters using cross-coupling or source-load coupling techniques, the proposed filter uses only two resonators to achieve high selectivity through a pair of transmission zeros. In order to optimize selectivity and sensitivity (insertion loss) of the filter, the effect of the position of asymmetric feed line on transmission zeros and insertion loss is analyzed. The SOI-CMOS switched capacitor composed of metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor and stacked-FETs is loaded at outer rings of MSRRs to tune passband frequency and handle high power signal up to +30 dBm. By turning on or off the gate of the transistors, the passband frequency can be shifted from 4GH to 5GHz. The proposed on-chip filter is implemented in 0.18-${\mu}m$ SOI CMOS technology that makes it possible to integrate high-Q passive devices and stacked-FETs. The designed filter shows miniaturized size of only $4mm{\times}2mm$ (i.e., $0.177{\lambda}g{\times}0.088{\lambda}g$), where ${\lambda}g$ denotes the guided wave length of the $50{\Omega}$ microstrip line at center frequency. The measured insertion loss (S21)is about 5.1dB and 6.9dB at 5.4GHz and 4.5GHz, respectively. The designed filter shows out-of-band rejection greater than 20dB at 500MHz offset from center frequency.

Guide modes in a graded index multinmode optical fiber are turned into clad modes when the optical fiber was bended into a perpendicular direction to its optical axes by microbending forces, which causes the loss of the guiding optical power. The theories reported on this microbending power loss can be applied to calculation of the transmission power loss only when the beding period equals to the mode coupling length. In this paper, we obtained the general expression of the optical power transmission loss in a graded index multimode fiber bended periodically. This can be applied to the calculation of the power loss of the periodically microbended fiber with an arbitrary bending shape and period. Also, by using the beam theory in mechanics, we could derive the expression of the displacement of the optical fiber caused by the external force which bends the fiber into a periodic trapezoidal shape. Experiments were carried out to determine the dependence of the power loss on the period of the microbending forces. Experimnetal results were in good agreement (in the same order of the magnitude) with theoritical values derived in our work within the bending period region of 2mm-10mm.

This paper calculates protection distance to protect WiBro service from ISM(Industrial Scientific Medical) equipment which is used in the same frequency with WiBro. We analyze with a scenario that WiBro receiver is closed to ISM equipment which has interfering power of CISPR(International Special Committee on Radio Interference) 11 limit. As a result, the protection distance of 14 m was calculated by using MCL (Minimum Coupling Loss) for the worst case. And, the protection distance of 10 m was calculated to meet 5 % interference probability below by using MC(Monte Carlo) for statistic analysis in case of a interferer.

This paper analyzes the interference effect of ISM(Industrial Scientific Medical) equipment on WLAN in order to protect WLAN in interference environment which WLAN Station is close to ISM equipment. CISPR(International Special Committee on Radio Interference) radiation limit standard was used for interfering power of ISM equipment. Then, MCL(Minimum Coupling Loss) which is for the worst case and MC(Monte Carlo) which is based on statistic interference probability are used to get protection distance. As a result, the protection distance of 105 m was calculated by using MCL for the worst case. And, the protection distance of 17 m was calculated by using MC for statistic analysis.
