Design and optimization of a broadband meander-line twist reflector was performed for X-band application. Based on the equivalent transmission line model, the polarization twist performance was evaluated. Genetic analysis, particles swarm, and hybrid swarm optimizations were employed to obtain the optimized geometrical parameters. The optimized design exhibits low cross-polarization level below - 25 dB between 8.45 and 11.38 GHz. The polarization twist loss was below 0.2 dB. Comparison between computed and simulated results was also discussed.

TMED(Transmission Mounted Electric Device) parallel hybrid configuration can realize EV(Electric Vehicle) mode by disengaging the clutch between an engine and a transmission-mounted motor to improve efficiencies of low load driving and regenerative braking. In the EV mode, however, jerk can be induced since there are insufficient damping elements in the drive-train. Though the jerk gives demoralizing influence upon driving comport, adding a physical damper is not applicable due to constraints of the layout. This study suggests the jerk reduction control, composed of active damping method and torque profiling method, to suppress the jerk without hardware modification. The former method creates a virtual damper by generating absorbing torque in the opposite direction of the oscillation. The latter method reduces impulse on the mated gear teeth of the drive-train by limiting the gradient of traction torque when the direction of the torque is reversed. To validate the effectiveness of the suggested strategy, a series of vehicle tests are carried out and it is observed that the amplitude of the oscillation can be reduced by up to 83%.

Broadband code division multiple access(B-CDMA)previously proposed for personal communication services(PCS) is not suitable for high-speed data services with large variations in speed, because it is designed only for low-speed voice calls with small variations in speed. Meanwhile, hybrid intra-cell TDMA/inter-cell CDMA(Hybrid TDMA/CDMA) recently proposed could accomodate high-speed services easily because of its internal use of the TDMA scheme, but there would be much inefficiency in treating variable bit rate services due to the intrinsic properties of TDMA transmission scheme, In this paper, a media access control(MAC) protocol, called Resevation TDMA/CDMA, which uses a reservation scheme similar to the one in the packet reservation multiple access(PRMA) protocol to compensate for these shortcomings is proposed. In addition, the performance of this protocol is analyzed and compared with conventional protocols by computer simulation. According to the simulation results, it has been shown that the proposed Reservation TDMA/CDMA scheme could support various transmission rates of user data traffics easily, and it could utilize the variations of the treansmission rates in each active call more efficiently.

A highly miniaturized on-chip $180^{\circ}$ hybrid employing periodic ground strip structure (PGSS) was realized on a silicon radio frequency integrated circuit. The PGSS was placed at the interface between $SiO_2$ film and silicon substrate, and it was electrically connected to top-side ground planes through the contacts. Owing to the short wavelength characteristic of the transmission line employing the PGSS, the on-chip $180^{\circ}$ hybrid was highly miniaturized. Concretely, the on-chip $180^{\circ}$ hybrid exhibited good radio frequency performances from 37 GHz to 55 GHz, and it was 0.325 $mm^2$, which is 19.3% of a conventional $180^{\circ}$ hybrid. The miniaturization technique proposed in this work can be also used in other fields including compound semiconducting devices, such as high electron mobility transistors, diamond field effect transistors, and light emitting diodes.

This paper presents an active vibration control of a flexible beam structure using a hybrid mount which consists of elastic rubber and Piezoelectric material. After identifying stiffness and damping properties of the rubber and piezoelectric elements, a mechanical model of the hybrid mount is established. The mount model is then Incorporated into the beam structure, and the governing equation of motion is obtained in a state space. A sliding mode controller is designed in order to actively attenuate the vibration of the beam structure subjected to high frequency and small magnitude excitations. The controller is experimentally realized and control responses such as acceleration of the beam structure and force transmission through the hybrid mount are evaluated. In addition. a comparative work is done between the passive and hybrid mount systems.

Hybrid car can improve fuel efficiency using a power of motor that is generated during constant-speed or deceleration driving. The motor is located between engine and transmission. But, when voltage of main battery is low, fuel efficiency is low because the voltage can't run the motor. In this situation, this study observed fuel efficiency when using solar cell for assistance power. In order to verify a fuel consumption of hybrid car equipped solar cell for assistance power, the car was tested downtown driving. As hybrid car was equipped solar cell for assistance, fuel consumption was reduced 8.35 % at running air conditioner. And, at air conditioner doesn't work, fuel consumption was reduced 6.88 %. This point of view, CO2 is expected to reduce in similar proportion.

In this paper, a new shift map was proposed to improve the fuel economy of a transmission mounted electric device(TMED) type dual clutch transmission(DCT) plug-in hybrid electric vehicle(PHEV) by considering transmission and motor losses. To construct the shift map, powertrain efficiencies of the engine-DCT-motor were obtained at each gear step. A shift map that provides the highest powertrain efficiency was constructed for the given wheel torque and vehicle speed. Simulation results showed that the fuel economy of the target PHEV can be improved by the new shift map compared with the existing engine optimal operating line(OOL) shift control.

In this paper, we propose a dynamic slot allocation algorithm for efficient transmission of VBR services in wireless ATM networks. The proposed algorithm is based on a hybrid dynamic parameter(DP) control which combines the strength of in-band control and out-of-band control by considering the variation characteristics of buffer length in distributed mobile terminals. This algorithm consists of four sub-algorithms: dynamic parameter determination algorithm, dynamic parameter transmission algorithm, estimation algorithm of the number of request slots, and prorated-allocation algorithm. As the proposed allocation algorithm based on the hybrid DP control scheme can offer nearly precise MAC level estimations of the requirements for each VBR, the algorithm makes it possible to obtain ideal allocation efficiency. The allocation efficiency of the algorithm is shown by numerical analysis. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has better performance than conventional schemes in terms of allocation efficiency, delay and cell loss ratio under VBR traffic.

This paper proposes a hybrid optical lines composed of single-mode fiber(SMF) and multi-mode fiber(MMF) for gigabit-capable Passive Optical Network(GPON) using a WDM method with a single light source per each channel, and reports the results of transmission performance the proposed lines. The transmission link uses a direct modulated DFB-LD for high speed downstreams at the optical line terminal(OLT) of central office(CO) and a low cost SFP type transceiver for low-speed upstream in optical network unit(ONU). To split or combine the transmission channels, wavelength MUX/DEMUX are used in the optical line section, and MMFs not longer than 1 km are attached to the SMF lines at the ONU side of the WDM-PON links. We have performed the transmission experiment on the downstream of 2.5 Gbit/s, and 1.25 Gbit/s, and the upstream of 1.25 Gbit/s, and 622 Mbit/s which are recommended by ITU-T G.984.2. The transmission margin and feasibility of the proposed links have been tested to be suitable up to 2.5 Gbit/s transmission.

This paper has proposed Hybrid QoS Routing Link State Update(LSU) Algorithm that has had a both advantage of LSU message control in periodic QoS routing LSU algorithm and QoS routing performance in adaptive LSU algorithm. Hybrid LSU algorithm can adapt the threshold based network traffic information and has the mechanism that calculate LSU message transmission priority using the flow of statistical request bandwidth and available bandwidth and determine the transmission of the message according to update rate per a unit of time. We have evaluated the performance of the proposed algorithm and the existing algorithms on MCI simulation network using the performance metric as the QoS routing blocking rate and the mean update rate per link, it thus appears that we have verified the performance of this algorithm that it can diminish to 10% of the LSU message count.
