A specific anthropomorphic mannequin (SAM) model was used to investigate the relation between local specific absorption rate (SAR) and head size. The model was scaled to 80 to 100% sized models at intervals of 5%. We assumed that the shell of the SAM model has the same properties as the head-equivalent tissue. Five handsets with a monopole antenna operating at 835 MHz were placed in the approximate cheek position against the scaled SAM models. The handsets had different antenna lengths, antenna positions, body sizes, and external materials. SAR distributions in the scaled SAM models were computed using the finite-difference time-domain method. We found that a larger head causes a distinct increase in the spatial peak 1-voxel SAR, while head size did not significantly change the peak 1-g averaged-SAR and 10-g averaged-SAR values for the same power level delivered to the antenna.

This paper describes a line element planar antenna with three frequency bands. To obtain broadband characteristics, a modified planar antenna that has semi-elliptical elements based on the characteristics of a line element planar antenna is proposed and analyzed by the finite difference time domain method. Return loss characteristics are discussed as functions of the eccentricity values of semi-ellipse at each element. The broadbanding of the modified planar antenna is implemented based on the results. The planar antenna with three systems (an 800 MHz band cellular phone, a third-generation cellular phone, and a 2.4 GHz band wireless LAN system) is considered as an application example.

NRD(Nonradiative Dielectric) 가이드 내 누설파(leaky wave)를 줄이기 위해 최근 주기 구조를 도입한 모델이 제안되었다. 그러나 NRD 가이드 내의 주기구조에 대한 상세한 특성 해석은 아직 이루어지지 않았다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 FDTD(Finite Difference Time Domain) 기법을 이용하여 주기 구조를 삽입한 NRD 가이드의 전파 특성을 해석하고자 한다. 해석 결과는 주기 구조의 모델 변화. 즉 공기층의 크기, 간격 개수 등에 따라서 누설이 어떻게 변화하는 지를 보여준다.

LHM (Left Handed Material)은 특정 주파수 범위에서 음의 유전율과 투자율을 가지는 물질이다. 이 물질의 유효 유전율과 투자율은 분산 특성을 가지며 로렌츠 (Lorentz) 물질과 비슷한 형태를 가진다. 본 논문에서는 FDTD (Finite Difference Time Domain) 법을 바탕으로 한 PLRC (Piecewise Linear Recursive Convolution) 법을 이용하여 LHM 내의 유효 전파특성을 모의한다. 모의실험 결과는 음의 유전율과 투자율을 가지는 주파수 범위를 보여준다.

The purpose of this reserch is to establish the new design technology for microwave Coplanar structure. The components in microwave circuit are classified to transmission devices, EM devices, and quasi-TEM devices. After design of these devices, we analyzed these CPWs electromagnetically using FDTD method, and suggested optimum CPW structure. In oder to realize a CPW module up to 30 GHz-100 GHz band, we research on a technology of 3-dimensional microwave CPW, and GaAs substrate with Si layer for ohmic loss. As a result this research, we suppressed the leakage, resonance, coupling, and radiation of CPW EMI, and improved resonance quality of CPW.

This paper propose a method to reduce the backscatter field of the curved aluminum plate using the cancellation system. The cancellation circuit is composed of a circulator, a LNA(Low Noise Amplifier), a VGA(Variable Gain Amplifier) and two phase shifters. Prior to experiment, we performed simulations to confirm the possibility using FDTD(Finite Difference Time Domain) simulator. We confirmed that the backscatter field could be reduced by the cancellation circuit when we changed the appropriate gain and phase. Finally, we performed an experiment to verify the performance of the cancellation circuit.

We have investigated the grating coupled surface plasmon resonance (GC-SPR) sensors using ZnO nano-grating structures to enhance the sensitivity of an SPR sensor. The GC-SPR sensors were analyzed using the finite-difference time-domain method. The optimum resonance angles of 49 degrees are obtained in the 150 nm wide grating structure with a period of 300 nm for the ZnO thickness of 30 nm. Then, the ZnO nano-grating patterns were fabricated by using laser interference lithography. The measured resonance angle of nano-grating patterns was around 49 degrees. Here, an enhanced evanescent field is obtained due to the surface plasmon on the edge of the bandgap when the ZnO grating structures are used to excite the surface palsmon.

This paper describes how the optical properties of a quasi-one-dimensional photonic crystalline waveguide having a periodic air cavity are influenced by various structural parameters; the electromagnetic fields are simulated using the finite-difference time-domain method. The simulations considered four design parameters: cavity size, defect size, lattice constant, and number of cavity. The parameter sensitivity of the photonic bandgap property of the waveguide having air cavities is examined. A couple of significant design guidelines are obtained. We show that the quasi-one-dimensional photonic crystalline waveguide has significant unrealized potential.
