In this paper, a new balun is proposed. This proposed balun has a DGS(Defected Ground Structure) pattern on the ground plane. The transmission-line is transformed by microstrip-to-slotline transition. DGS pattern on the ground plane and transition of the lines can be easily made a property of the balun. Resonance frequency of the DGS leads to operating frequency of the balun. Also the transition produces $180^{\circ}$ out-of-phase between two output ports without additional transmission line. In this paper, a new balun with VPDGS(Vertically Periodic Defected Ground Structure) effectively lower the operating frequency. To validate the proposed design method, the new balun is designed, fabricated and measured at 2 GHz.

In this paper, a composite right-/left-handed(CRLH) rectangular waveguide satisfying a balanced condition above the cut-off frequency is presented. The proposed structure consists of one shorted stub and two twisted H-plane irises which produce an effectively negative permeability and permittivity, respectively. The CRLH structure can independently control the series and shunt resonance frequencies of a CRLH transmission line which determine the left-handed(LH) and right-handed(RH) bands due to a minimized coupling between a shorted stub and twisted H-plane irises. Thus, the design of the CRLH waveguide satisfying a balanced condition is possible. To analyze the CRLH structure, a crossly connected equivalent circuit is derived. The simulated and measured results confirm that the proposed CRLH waveguide has a transmission property without a band gap among the LH and RH bands.

In this paper, we proposed an HF-band wireless power transfer system with adaptive frequency control circuit for efficiency enhancement in a short range. In general, a wireless power transfer system shows an impedance mismatching due to a reflected impedance, because a coupling coefficient is varied with respect to separation distance between two resonating loop antennas. The proposed method can compensate this impedance mismatching by varying input frequency of a voltage-controlled oscillator adaptively with respect to separation distance. Therefore, transmission efficiency is enhanced in a short distance, where large impedance mismatch occurs. The adaptive frequency circuit consists of a directional coupler, a detector, and a loop filter. In order to demonstrate the performance of the proposed system, a wireless power transfer system with adaptive frequency control circuits is designed and implemented, which has a pair of loop antennas with a dimension of 30${\times}$30 $cm^2$. From measured results, the proposed system shows enhanced efficiency performance than the case without adaptive frequency control.

In this paper, we propose a flexible zeroth-order resonant(ZOR) antenna. Its zero phase constant ensures that the antenna performance is independent of substrate deformation. A composite right/left-handed transmission line is designed based on coplanar waveguide technology to realize the zeroth-order resonance phenomenon. The CRLH is an implementation of metamaterial(left handed material) which is composed of shunt inductance and series capacitance. In order to yield additional circuital parameter, chip inductor and gap capacitor is added, respectively. The proposed ZOR antenna provides good performances: reasonable bandwidth(6.5 %) and peak gain(0.69~1.39 dBi). Simulated and measured results show that the antenna's resonant frequencies and radiation patterns are almost unchanged at different curvature diameters of 30, 50, 70 mm, as well as for a flat surface.

The power conversion converter for driving the wireless power transfer system is can be into the two part of the DC power conversion rectifier and the high frequency dc-ac power conversion inverter. In this paper, The operating characteristics of the Class-${\Phi}_2$ resonant inverter have been investigated through by simulation and by experiment. It can be switched at a high frequency without the switching losses and the harmonics are reduced effectively due to the input LC filter. Its switching frequency is 1MHz and the input voltage is 96V which is the output voltage of LLC resonant converter. And its output peak voltage is 170V. The resonant inverter module operated at the commercial power source of 220V was built. And also the electromagnetic coupled resonance coils were designed for wireless power transfer with a 1MHz operating frequency. As a experimental result, the wireless power transmission was confirmed and it is varified the validity of the experiment.

In this paper, the electromagnetic effects on the discontinuity structures of the frequency selective radome in manufacturing process based on the X-band were analyzed. In order to fabricate a curved radome using a planar frequency selective surface structure, it is assumed that gaps, slanted gaps, pattern damage, and pattern misalignment between FSS patterns, which are discontinuous elements that can occur at the joint surface of the FSS panel. FSS specimens including continuous elements were fabricated and the frequency transmission characteristics were measured in a free space measurement environment. From the measurement results, resonance frequency shift, transmission performance degradation, and bandwidth variations were found to be the largest when the damaged pattern was bonded to the junction of FSS panels.

To evaluate the electromagnetic power absorption in near field, the magnetic composites with the conductive grids were simulated using the typical permeability frequency profiles. The transmission power absorptions of the magnetic composites on microstrip line were extracted by the 3D FEM simulation program of HFSS. The magnitudes of power absorptions were greatly enhanced up to 98% and broadened the absorbing frequency band over 5 GHz by the insertion of a conductive grid in magnetic composite. The initial frequency of the power absorption can controlled by the change of the ferromagnetic resonance frequencies of the magnetic composite.

In this paper, an efficient means to estimate the dispersion characteristics of active FSS (or ESS) is presented. We numerically investigate the effective permittivity and the transmission coefficient of 2D metal-fiber composites using linear-lumped impedance loading. We modify the GEC method which is applied to 2D fiber composite material with arbitrary fiber orientation. We show that by varying the impedance value it is possible to control the resonance frequency of the array as well as the bandwidth.

Analytic results, valid at resonance, for the admittance properties of an edge shunt slot on the narrow wall of rectangular waveguide have been derived by the use of electromagnetic field equations. Furthermore, additional formulas for the reflection, transmission coefficient and voltage amplitude generated by given incident wave are described. Finally, the measured results are compared with the theoretical values. It was found that the measured results were consistent with the theoretical results. Also the errors between computed and measured data are described.
