In this paper, a microstrip antenna is designed using a rectangular patch. To find characteristics of the antenna, computer simulations of the rectangular single microstrip patch antenna are performed with changing width and feed line. And we found characteristics of RHCP using axial ratio. Through the results, we found that the Finite Difference Time Domain(FDTD) method is an effective method for designing microstrip patch antenna. According to simulation the resonant point has been found it in the frequency received from GPS satellite. And these results were in relatively good accordance with the measured values.

The reflectivity of a grid ferrite electromagnetic wave absorber is analyzed using finite difference time domain (FDTD) method, which is usually used in anechoic chambers for EMI / EMS test. The frequency dispersive characteristics of ferrite medium and its boundary condition are modeled using magnetic flux in addition to E- and H-fields. By applying Floquets theorem, FDTD analysis of the grid ferrite absorber with periodic infinite array is simplified as a unit cell problem. The method of homogenization which is mainly utilized in the calculation of absorber reflectivity as a low frequency technique takes only into account volume fraction of the unit cell of the absorber except for the structure of medium geometry. However, the presented method in this paper can analyze the geometry effect of the unit cell with its medium characteristics up to high frequency region.

Microwave characteristics of ridge type CPW traveling-wave(TW) electroabsorption modulator and photodetector are affected by the thickness of intrinsic layer, width of guiding layer, and the separation of signal and ground electrodes. These factors are determined effective index of microwave and characteristic impedance due to changing of capacitance(C) and inductance(L) of device. However, conventional equivalent circuit of TW-structure is approximated to microstrip and CPW transmission line by distribution of electric and magnetic fields, respectively. In this paper, we analyzed microwave characteristics of TW-structure and found more accurate value of C and L by using finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. These values are adopted circuit element of equivalent circuit. Microwave characteristics obtained by the FDTD and equivalent circuit model show good agreement.

This paper is to verify the availability of the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method for the analysis of millimeter wave microstrip patch antenna. Using this method, the size of the microstrip patch antenna resonating at 32.153 GHz is optimized and the input impedance, the voltage standing wave ratio and the radiation pattern are calculated. The resonance frequencies of the microstrip patch antenna are calculated by MOM and FDTD method and then compared with the measured results, showing the difference of 12.27% and 1.27% respectively. Also, the bandwidth of this Ka-band patch antenna is about 8% which is similar to the case of X-band.

The waveform inversion for isotropic media has ever been studied since the 1980s, but there has been few studies for anisotropic media. We present a seismic waveform inversion algorithm for 2-D heterogeneous transversely isotropic structures. A cell-based finite difference algorithm for anisotropic media in time domain is adopted. The steepest descent during the non-linear iterative inversion approach is obtained by backpropagating residual errors using a reverse time migration technique. For scaling the gradient of a misfit function, we use the pseudo Hessian matrix which is assumed to neglect the zero-lag auto-correlation terms of impulse responses in the approximate Hessian matrix of the Gauss-Newton method. We demonstrate the use of these waveform inversion algorithm by applying them to a two layer model and the anisotropic Marmousi model data. With numerical examples, we show that it's difficult to converge to the true model when we assumed that anisotropic media are isotropic. Therefore, it is expected that our waveform inversion algorithm for anisotropic media is adequate to interpret real seismic exploration data.

Spatial control of sound is essential to deliver better sound to the listener's position in space. As it can be experienced in many listening environments. the quality of sound can not be manifested over every Position in a hall. This motivates us to control sound in a region we select. The primary focus of the developed method has to do with the brightness and contrast of acoustic image in space. In particular, the acoustic brightness control seeks a way to increase loudness of sound over a chosen area, and the contrast control aims to enhance loudness difference between two neighboring regions. This enables us to make two different kinds of zone - the zone of quiet and the zone of loud sound - at the same time. The other perspective of this study is on the direction of sound. It is shown that we can control the direction of perceived sound source by focusing acoustic energy in wavenumber domain. To begin with, the proposed approaches are formulated for pure-tone case. Then the control methods are extended to a more general case, where the excitation signal has broadband spectrum. In order to control the broadband signal in time domain, an inverse filter design problem is defined and solved in frequency domain. Numerical and experimental results obtained in various conditions certainly validate that the acoustic brightness, acoustic contrast, direction of wave front can be manipulated for some finite region in space and time.

In this paper, characteristics of the electromagnetically coupled broadband microstrip antennas are analyzed by the Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method, and antenna para- meters are optimized to get maximum bnadwidth. By using short radial tuning stub in microstrip feedline, electromagnetically coupled microstrip antenna shows broadband ($\simeq$13%) characteristics, and the characteristics are varied as a function of radius, radial angle, and position of the radial tuning stub. Operating frequency, return loss, VSWR and input impedance are calculated by Fourier transforming the time domain results. After optimization of the parameters, maximum bandwidth of the radial stub tuning microstrip antenna is about 15% and the ripple char- acteristic of the VSWR is better than the rectangular tuning stub microstrip antenna.

This paper has been studied a ADI-FDTD(Alternating Direction Implicit Finite Difference Time Domain ) algorithm using an alternating Direction time-stepping scheme for GPR( Ground-Penetrating Radar ) system simulation. We did the numerical formulations for three-dimensional ADI-FDTD algorithm and PML(Perfect Matched Layer), and made an simple experiment on a arbitrary cube with programed algorithms. And then we compared its computed results with those of conventional FDTD.

In this paper, the lightning-induced voltages on shielded twisted-pair wires with multipoint grounding on cable sheath are calculated by using finite-difference time domain (FDTD) method. The equivalent single-wire line that represents a bundle of twisted-pair wires is adopted for computational efficiency. A finitely conducting ground is also taken into account in both lightning electromagnetic field calculations and surge propagation along the shielded cable for a practical simulation. It is found that multipoint additional grounding on cable sheath provides more shielding effectiveness especially in the early time response of the lightning-induced voltages. From this study, the requirements for lighting surge protection devices in a telecommunication subscriber cab1e can be established.

The iterative learning controller makes the system output follow the desired output over a finite time interval through iterating trials. In this paper, first we discuss that the design problem of learning controller is originally the design problem of the inverse model. Then we show that the tracking error which is the difference between the desired output and the system output is reduced monotonically by properly modeled inverse system if the magnitude of the learning operator being introduced is bounded within the unit circle in complex domain. Also it would be shown that the conventional learning control method is a kind of extremely simplified inverse model learning control method of the objective controlled system. Hence this control method can be considered as a generalization of the conventional learning control method. The more a designer model the objective controlled system precisely, the better the performance of the approximated inverse model learning controller would be. Finally we compare the performance of the conventional learning control method with that of the approximated inverse model learning control method by computer simulation.
