본 논문은 UHF RFID 시스템을 위해 편파를 선택할 수 있는 리더 안테나를 설계 및 구현하였다. 제안된 리더 안테나는 두 개의 급전부를 가지는 마이크로 스트립 패치 안테나와 두 개의 SPDT 스위치와 하나의 SP4T 스위치와 3dB hybrid coupler로 구성되어 있다. 각각의 스위치 전압을 조절하여 수직 방향의 선형 편파와 수평방향의 선형 편파, 좌수 원형 편파와 우수 원형 편파를 선택할 수 있다. 제안된 안테나는 902MHz ~ 928MHz 대역에서 VSWR 2:1을 만족하고 원형 편파로 선택되었을 때 AR (Axial Ratio)은 3dB 이하로 측정되었다. 또한 사용 환경 및 태그의 편파 방향에 적합한 편파를 선택할 수 있기 때문에 PLF (Polarization Loss Factor)를 최소화 할 수 있고 태그의 인식거리를 확장 시킬 수 있다.

A small reconfigurable patch antenna is proposed to achieve polarization diversity for digital multimedia broadcasting systems at 2.6 GHz. To obtain polarization diversity, a pair of on-slit PIN diodes is inserted in each diagonal of a cross-shaped patch. Thus, four PIN-diodes on these slits are utilized to change the connection of the slits and thus achieve polarization. Bias circuits for the diodes are allocated in the cutting corner of the cross-shaped patch to minimize the antenna size. The antenna produces left-hand circular polarization, right-hand circular polarization, or linear polarization, depending on the PIN-diode status. Analysis of circular polarization operation is explicated. Measurements show a gain of about 1.5 dB, a cross polarization of about -20 dB, and an axial ratio of about 2.5 dB.

For combating multipath fading in wireless radio environment, diversity schemes is useful. In this paper, for performance improvement of polarization diversity system, we analyzed a two-branch polarization diversity at the receiving end of a mobile link when the transmitter emits a circularly polarized wave. And In order to calculate the correlation coefficient considering the XPD(cross polarization discrimination) between the received signals for the two diversity branches, a simple theoretical model of circular polarization diversity is adopted and calculate correlation coefficient. From the analysis results, it is seen that the correlation coefficient of circular polarization diversity evaluated by the XPD is less than that of vertical polarization diversity. And also, we designed and fabricated circular polarization diversity system with microstrip antenna. we analyzed data measured in indoor NLOS environment using fabricated circular polarization diversity system. From the measurement results, it is clearly seen that the diversity effect of circular polarization diversity system is higher 3dB than vertical polarization diversity system.

The interference between closely placed co-coverage satellites was analyzed. In general, a satellite network may use different orthogonal polarizations and frequencies to increase the throughput of a satellite. However, when orthogonal linear polarization (horizontal polarization and vertical polarization) or orthogonal circular polarization (left-handed circular polarization and right-handed circular polarization) is used, the signal from one polarization sense to another may be coupled, resulting in cross-polarization interference. This signal-coupling arises due to the finite value of the cross-polarization discrimination of the earth station. In this study, field equations were used to analyze the interference between adjacent satellites using co-frequency. The level of interference was compared to that when two adjacent satellites used the same polarization. The simulation results show that the interference mainly depends on the off-axis co-polar pattern and the cross-polar pattern of the earth station antenna.

Real-time adaptive control of laser output polarization is presented in a 10-W-level non-polarization-maintaining (non-PM) fiber amplifier. While the output polarization from a non-PM fiber amplifier tends to be irregular, depending on output power, time, and perturbation, closed-loop polarization control can maintain the polarization extinction ratio at higher than 20 dB. Real-time polarization control can attain the target linear polarization mostly within 1.4-25 ms and shows stability against external perturbations. This approach can satisfy both linear polarization and high output power in a non-PM amplifier, and facilitates optimization of laser performance and maintenance-free operation.

The relation between the allowed range of variation of polarization controller wave-plates angles and the respective polarization scattering properties is investigated. It is demonstrated that a nearly uniform polarization scattering over the Poincare sphere is obtained using a concatenation of three polarization controllers with angles randomly changed between $-{\pi}$/4 and ${\pi}$/4. It is also shown that an improvement of the scattering properties is obtained if the configuration angles are allowed to change between $-{\pi}$/2 and ${\pi}$/2.

In this paper,. with the aim of achieving the expected performance improvement for a polarization diversity system, we analyzed two-branch polarization diversity at the receiving end of a mobile link which a transmitter emits circularly polarized wave. In this analysis, to calculate the correlation coefficient considered by XPD(cross polarization discrimination) between the two received signals, a simple theoretical model of circular polarization diversity is adopted. From the analysis results, it is clearly seen that the correlation coefficient of circular polarization diversity evaluated by the XPD is less than that of conventional linear polarization diversity. And also, we designed and implemented a circular polarization diversity system with micro-strip antenna. By using the circular polarization diversity system, we analyzed the measured data in indoor NLOS(Non-Line-Of-Sight) environments. From this analysis results, it is also clearly seen that the diversity effect of circular polarization diversity system shows better performance compared to the conventional linear diversity system by about 3 dB high.

자이로스코프용 광대역폭 erbium 첨가 광섬유 광원에서 중심파장의 편광의존성을 억제하기 위하여 펌프광의 편광을 변조함으로써 스크램블링하는 방식을 사용하였다. 원통형 PZT에 광섬유를 감은 형태의 편광변조기에 적정진폭의 변조를 가함으로써 펌프광의 편광도(시간평균치)를 1.4%까지 낮출 수 있었다. 펌프 편광 스크램블러와 출력단 depolarizer를 함께 사용한 경우에 임의의 편광변화에 대한 광원의 중심파장 변화가 측정기의 측정한계(∼5 ppm) 이하로 관찰되었다.

Integrated-optic polarization controlling devices such as polarizers, polarization splitters, and polarization converters, are proposed and demonstrated in nonlinear optic polymers. Poling-induced birefringence in electro-optic polymers is exploited to fabricate the devices. The polymeric waveguide polarizers show low excess losses, and extinction ratios of 20.7 dB and 17.1 dB for TM-pass and TE-pass polarizers, respectively. The polymeric waveguide polarization splitters exhibit TE-TM mode splittings with crosstalk of 14.2 dB and 10.1 dB for TM and TE mode splittings, respectively. The polymeric waveguide polarization converters show successful TE/TM polarization mode conversion with conversion efficiencies of higher than 30 dB. The device employs poling-induced waveguides which have slowly rotating azimuth angle of optic axis along the light propagation direction. The novel polarization converter is insensitive to wavelength and easier to fabricate than the other polarization converters containing periodic structures.

This paper proposes a novel microstrip patch antenna to make impedance matching possible by using slot/T-slot capacitive coupling between the patch and 50 $\Omega$ feed line on a ground plane. The single band/linear polarization patch antenna shows linear polarization at 2.4 GHz band. Under -10 dB return loss, the single band/linear polarization patch antenna obtains 50 MHz bandwidth at 2.37 GHz~2.42 GHz. The dual band/dual polarization microstrip patch antenna shows circular polarization at 2.4 GHz band and linear polarization at 3.1 GHz band. Under -10 dB return loss, The dual band/dual polarization microstrip patch antenna obtains 340 MHz bandwidth at 2.23~2.57 GHz and 375 MHz bandwidth at 2.95~3.325 GHz.
