The application of time-domain methods in emission measurement instruments allows for a reduction in scan time by several orders of magnitude and for new evaluation methods to be realized such as the real-time spectrogram to characterize transient emissions. In this paper two novel systems for time-domain EMI measurements above 1 GHz are presented. The first system combines ultra-fast analog-to-digital-conversion and real-time digital signal processing on a field-programmable-gate-array (FPGA) with ultra-broadband multi-stage down-conversion to enable measurements in the range from 10 Hz to 26 GHz with high sensitivity and full-compliance with the requirements of CISPR 16-1-1. The required IF bandwidths were added to allow for measurements according to MIL-461F and DO-160F. The second system realizes a system of time-interleaved analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and has an upper bandwidth limit of 4 GHz. With the implementation of an automatic mismatch calibration, the system fulfills CISPR 16-1-1 dynamic range requirements. Measurements of the radiated emissions of electronic consumer devices and household appliances like the non-stationary emissions of a microwave oven are presented. A measurement of a personal computer's conducted emissions on a power supply line according to DO-160F is given.

In this paper, a 0.6~6GHz quad-ridge horn antenna which can be used for the antenna measurement of 5.8GHz WiFi system from lowest frequency band of mobile LTE (Long Term Evolution) is designed and implemented. The quad-ridge horn antenna has quadruple ridges of exponential function, a back-short and a cavity. Based on this structure, we design the cavity size, ridge gap and feed gap to have broadband characteristics. For implementation, the plates material of aluminum and copper are used for the horn and four ridges, respectively. And the insulator supports are used to maintain the gap between ridges. By measurement, antenna has the gain of 6.2~13.35dBi with the return loss of less than -6dB (under VSWR 3 : 1) in the entire design band. The results of this study can be widely used to the antenna studies on the mobile communication including low frequency band of LTE, the EMI measurement and the standard calibration measurement.

Ferrite tile absorber is of great concern for the application to anechoic chambers due to the growing demand of EMI or EMC measurements. This paper investigates the magnetic, dielectric and microwave absorbing properties of a Ni-An ferrite for the purpose. A design chart was constructed with the solutions of impedance-matching equation in the radio frequencies (30 MHz - 1 GHz). The material parameters for zero-reflection are predicted from the chart. The magnetic and dielectric properties of sintered Ni-Zn ferrite is found to be well suited for this requirements. A superior microwave absorbing properties (frequency band and absorber thickness) of the samples are demonstrated.

To construct an anechoic chamber for EMI test satisfying some international standards, it has been recognized that the absorption characteristics of the EM wave absorber must have more than 20 dB over the frequency band from 30 MHz to 18 GHz. In this paper, an EM wave absorber with super wide-band frequency characteristics was proposed and designed in order to satisfy the above requirements by using the EMCM[1]. As a result, the proposed absorber has absorption characteristics more than 20 dB over the frequency band from 30 MHz to more than 20 GHz.

We present experimental demonstrations of electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) structures for the wideband suppression of radiated emissions from a power bus in high-speed printed circuit boards (PCBs). In most of the PCB designs, a parallel plate waveguide (PPW) structure is employed for a power bus. This structure significantly produces the wideband-radiated emissions resulting from parallel plate modes. To suppress the parallel plate modes in the wideband frequency range, the power buses based on the electromagnetic bandgap structure with a defected ground structure (DGS) are presented. DGSs are applied to a metal plane that is connected to a rectangular EBG patch by using a via structure. The use of the DGS increases the characteristic impedance value of a unit cell, thereby substantially improving the suppression bandwidth of the radiated emissions. It is experimentally demonstrated that the DGS-EBG structure significantly mitigates the radiated emissions over the frequency range of 0.5 GHz to 2 GHz as compared to the PPW.

Nano-size manganese ferrite reinforced conductive polypyrrole composites reveal a core-shell structure by in situ polymerization, in the presence of dodecyl benzene sulfonic acid as the surfactant and dopant, and iron chloride as the oxidant. The structure and magnetic properties of manganese ferrite nano-fillers were measured, by using X-ray diffraction and vibrating sample magnetometer. The morphology, microstructure, and conductivity of the composite were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and four-wire technique. The microwave-absorbing properties of composites reinforcement dispersed in resin coating with the coating thickness of 1.2 nm were investigated, by using vector network analyzers, in the frequency range of 8~12 GHz. A reflection loss of -8 dB was observed at 10.5 GHz.

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.

In order to construct an Anechoic Chamber satisfying international standards for EMI testing, it has been recognized that the absorption characteristics of the EM wave absorber must be higher than 20 dB over the frequency band from 30 MHz to 18 GHz. In this paper, an EM wave absorber with super wide-band frequency characteristics was proposed and designed in order to satisfy the above requirements by using the Equivalent Material Constant Method(EMCM) and Finite Difference Time Domain(FDTD). The proposed absorber is to attach a pyramidal absorber onto a hemisphere-type absorber on a cutting cone-shaped ferrite. As a result, the proposed absorber has absorption characteristics higher than 20 dB over the frequency band from 30 MHz to more than 20 GHz.

최근 전자산업과 전파통신산업의 발달에 따라 불요전자파에 의한 전자파장해가 심각한 수 준에 이르게 되었다. 그 결과 국 . 내외 전자파환경은 나날이 악화되고 있으며, 이로 인한 사 회적 문제가 점차 증가되고 있는 실정이다. 이에 대한 대책으로 CISPR(Comite Internationale S Special des Perturbations Radioelectrique), FCC (Federal Communications Commissions) A ANSI(Amercian National Standards Institute) 둥이 주축이 되어 국제 규정이 제정되어 각종 전자기기들에 대해 방사(EMI) 및 내성(EMS)의 규제가 강화되고 있다. 그러나 국제규정이 요구하는(30 MHz - 18 GHz) 주파수 범위에서의 EMIjEMS 측정을 하기 위해 광대역(Broad-band) 전파무향실(Anechoic Chamber)이 필요하지만1 기존의 Ferrite T Tile 또는 그리드형 전파홉수체는 20 dB 이상 전파를 홉수할 수 잇는 주파수 대역이 30 M MHz - 400 MHz 또는 780 MHz에 불과하기 때문에 상기의 조건을 만족하는 전파무향실 을 구성하기에는 곤란한 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 국제 규격을 만족하는 전파무향실을 위한 광대역 전파홉수체를 개발하기 위해, 다충형으로 구성하고, 전파흡수체의 형상을 변화시켜 등가재료정수법을 사용하여 설계하고 그 특성을 평가함을 그 목적으로 하였다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 본 연구실에서 기폰에 제안한바 있는, 금속판 위에 타일형 페라이 트 충, 그 위에 원추절단형 페라이트 층과 원통형 페라이트 층을 적층시칸 형상의 전파홉수 체는 30 MHz - 6 GHz 정도까지 커버할 수 있으나, 1 GHz 부근의 주파수 대에서 16 dB 정도의 홉수능 밖에 가지지 못하였다. 이를 개선하기 위해, 금속판 위에 타일형 페라이트 층 을 형성하고 그 위에 원통형 페라이트 충, 원추절단형 페라이트 충I 원통형 페라이트 충, 타 원형 페라이트 충을 형성한 새로운 형태의 전파홉수체를 제안하였다. 본 논문에 제안한 새로운 형태의 전파흡수체의 시물레이션 결과 30 MHz - 20 GHz의 주파수 범위에서 전반적으로 25 dB이상의 전파흡수능을 가짐을 확인하였으며/ 특히 기폰에 제안한 전파홉수체와 비교하면,1GHz 부끈에서의 전파홉수능을 10 dB 이상 개선하였다. 나아가서/ 실재로 제작한 전파흡수체의 측정된 주파수특성이 시율레이션에 의한 이론치와 3 30 MHz - 6 GHz의 범위에서 잘 일치함을 확인하였다. 또한y 전파 홉수체의 전체 높이는 2 27 mm 밖에 되지 않으므로 본 연구에서 제안한 전파 홉수체를 사용할 경우 전파무향실의 유 효공간 확보에 매우 유리한 이점을 가진다
