In this paper, we propose a novel wide band printed monopole antenna called the staircase bow-tie monopole antenna (SBMA). We apply an extraordinary method for an impedance matching to conventional bow-tie monopoles. So we get the SBMA with a very wide band. Our antenna is smaller than a quarter wavelength in size but provides a 2:1 VSWR bandwidth of about 77.1 %. An antenna gain and a radiation pattern are about 1.7 dBi and omni-directional at 1.7 GHz, respectively.

In this paper, we designed and implemented the dual band antenna for IMT-2000 and 5.7㎓ WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network). The antenna was designed by using 3D simulations program, HFSS(High Frequency Structure Simulator). The electrical characteristics were measured by using HP 8720C network analyzer and measured maximum S$\sub$11/ was -25㏈, and maximum VSWR(Voltage Standing Wavc Ratio) was 1.26 for all frequency bands of interests in IMT-2000 and 5.7㎓ WLAN. Simulation results for antenna gain at 2㎓ and 5.7㎓ were 1.31㏈i and 4.1㏈i with omni directional radiation pattern. Implemented antenna is compact sized and can be produced in low cost enough for commercialization.

The aim of this paper is to evaluate noise characteristics of an electric power driven hammer. These investigation and analysis were made according to the ISO 1680/1 and MIL-STD 7410-1 and lead-wrapping experiment method that was used to identify the principal noise sources and analyze its noise. Hammer generates loud noise and it irritates and affects many people. Repeated exposures to loud noise can lead people to permanent hearing loss. Based on the contribution analysis, we confirm that the striker part is a major noise source and it has directional noise radiation pattern, which is left and right.

For the underwater localization, acoustic sensor systems are widely used due to greater penetration properties of acoustic signals in underwater environments. On the other hand, the good penetration property causes multipath and interference effects in structured environment too. To overcome this demerit, a localization method using the attenuation of electro-magnetic(EM) waves was proposed in several literatures, in which distance estimation and 2D-localization experiments show remarkable results. However, in 3D-localization application, the estimation difficulties increase due to the nonuniform (doughnut like) radiation pattern of an omni-directional antenna related to the depth direction. For solving this problem, we added a depth sensor for improving underwater 3D-localization with the EM wave method. A micro scale pressure sensor is located in the mobile node antenna, and the depth data from the pressure sensor is calibrated by the curve fitting algorithm. We adapted the depth(z) data to 3D EM wave pattern model for the error reduction of the localization. Finally, some experiments were executed for 3D localization with the fast calculation and less errors.

In this paper, the broadband cross monopole antenna is presented and the radiation characteristics is investigated f3r various width and height of the radiated element. In the presented antenna, the broadband characteristics is realized by the cross monopole element and the impedance matching section between the element and the ground.

In this paper, we propose the antenna to appropriate for a UWB communication system, and it meets characteristics for location recognition in predetermined range. Proposed tapered slot antenna was designed through the HFSS simulation tool of Ansys.

The impedance bandwidth range of the produced tapered slot antenna is from 3.8 ~ 8.9GHz to 5.1GHz, E-plane and H-plane radiation pattern meet directional antenna characteristics for indoor and outdoor location recognition in predetermined range. The antenna gain is 7.4 dBi(6GHz)in the simulation, the result of measurement demonstrated 7.4 dBi(6 GHz) of antenna maximum gain. Proposed tapered slot antenna meets UWB communication system but simulated and measured results were slightly different.

In this paper, a novel design of a compact printed monopole antenna for wireless local area network (WLAN) applications is investigated. The radiator with a patch of different line width and step-shaped ground planes is used to reduce the antenna size. The size of the antenna is 16 × 17 × 1 ㎣ and is fabricated with a photolithography technique. The simulated and measured results agree well. The resonant frequency of the investigated antenna is about 5.2 GHz and can cover an impedance bandwidth of 1 GHz for the measurement result. In addition, we presented the measured radiation pattern, presented the gain and efficiency measured in the required WLAN 5 GHz frequency band (5.15-5.825 GHz), and confirmed that it can be used as a 5 GHz band WLAN antenna. The investigated antenna has a small size, light weight, low cost, omni-directional radiation pattern, high gain, and high efficiency.

In this paper, a dual-band antenna is proposed for the RF power harvester system as well as RFID tag. The proposed antenna operates as the passive and active RFID tag antenna in the UHF and microwave band, respectively. In addition, to charge the battery of an active RFID tag in the microwave band, it harvest the RF signal for tagging from the passive RFID tag antenna in the UHF band. The proposed antenna operates in the UHF band (917~923.5 MHz) and microwave band (2.4~2.45 GHz). In order to obtain the dual-band operation, the dipole structure and meander parasitic elements are proposed as the ${\lambda}/2$ and $1{\lambda}$ dipole antenna, respectively. The radiating dipole structure in the microwave band acts as the coupled feed for the meander parasitic elements in the UHF band. The impedance bandwidth (VSWR < 2) of the proposed antenna covers 917~923.5 MHz (UHF band) and 2.4~2.45 GHz (Microwave band). Measured total efficiencies are over 45 % in the UHF band and over 70 % in the microwave band. Peak gains are over 0.18 dBi and 2.8 dBi in the UHF and microwave band with an omni-directional radiation pattern, respectively.
