본 논문에서는 상용 초고주파 MEMS 스위치를 이용하여 세 개의 주파수 대역에서 재구성 동작이 가능한 주파수 재구성 능동 배열 안테나 시스템(Reconfigurable Active Array Antenna System: RAA System)을 제안하였다. MEMS 스위치는 삽입 손실 및 선형성 특성이 우수하고 격리도가 높아 주파수 재구성 시스템 구현 시, 재구성을 위한 스위치로 인한 성능 열화가 거의 없다는 장점이 있다. 제안된 주파수 재구성 능동 배열 안테나 시스템은 간단한 구조의 임피던스 매칭 회로(Reconfigurable impedance Matching Circuit: RMC)를 갖는 주파수 재구성 증폭기(Reconfigurable Front-end Amplifier: RFA)가 집적화 되어 있으며, 안테나 방사체(Reconfigurable Antenna Element: RAE)와 재구성 제어 보드(Reconfiguration Control Board: RCB)로 구성되어 있다. 본 논문에서 제안한 RAA 시스템은 850 MHz, 1.9 GHz, 3.4 GHz의 세 개 주파수로 재구성되어 동작하며, 안테나 방사체는 $2{\times}2$ 배열을 가지고 각각의 방사체는 광대역 다이폴 형태를 갖는다. 제작된 RAA 시스템은 실험을 통하여 그 타당성을 확인하였다.

This letter proposes a reconfigurable directional coupler that uses a variable impedance mismatch reflector to achieve high isolation characteristics in the antenna front end. The reconfigurable coupler consists of a directional coupler and a single-pole four-throw (SP4T) switch with different load impedances as a variable load mismatch reflector. Selection of the load impedance by the reflector allows cancellation of the reflected signal due to antenna load mismatch and the leakage from the input to isolation port of the directional coupler, resulting in high isolation characteristics. The performance of the proposed architecture in separating the received (Rx) signal from the transmitted (Tx) signal in the antenna front end was verified by implementing and testing the reconfigurable coupler at 917 MHz for UHF radio-frequency identification (RFID) applications. The proposed reconfigurable directional coupler showed an improvement in the isolation characteristics of more than 20 dB at the operation frequency band.

본 논문에서는 기존의 주파수 reconfigurable 안테나의 협대역 특성을 개선하기 위한 대역폭 확장 특성을 가지는 주파수 reconfigurable 슬롯 안테나가 제안되었다. 제안된 안테나는 주파수 reconfigurable 특성을 가지는 동시에 대역폭을 확장시키기 위하여 넓은 슬롯 및 좁은 슬롯 두 부분으로 구성되어 있다. 삼각형 구조의 넓은 슬롯은 제안된 안테나의 대역폭을 증가시키는 역할을 하며, 좁은 슬롯은 PIN diode를 장착하는 역할을 한다. 제안된 안테나는 PM diode의 동작 상태를 바꿈에 따라 슬롯의 총 길이를 변화시키며, 이로 인해 중심 주파수 조절과 임피던스 정합의 변화를 최소화시킨다.

A reconfigurable multi-band mixer for the SDR system is proposed. The proposed reconfigurable mixer is operated between $850\;MHz{\sim}2\;GHz$, which includes all commercial mobile communication service. Because the varactor diodes are used to select a specific frequency and to adjust the impedance characteristic of the selected frequency band, the proposed reconfigurable mixer can be achieved to similar performance across all of the tuning range. In addition, the designed reconfigurable mixer is applicable for the SDR system since it has a single signal path for the multi-band signals and wide band tuning range.

Flexibly-reconfigurable roll forming (FRRF), which is a sheet forming process for multi-curved sheet metal, may solve both the economic and technical problems incurred in using a conventional die forming process. In the FRRF process, the multi-curved sheet metal is formed by different strain distributions on the sheet metal, and the reconfigurable rollers are used as tools during the forming. Therefore, a thorough investigation focused on the reconfigurable rollers is required for the realization of the FRRF process prior to the fabrication of FRRF machine. In the current study, a series of finite element simulations were conducted to study the load distributions experienced by the reconfigurable roller. In order to verify the shape design variables, the effect of the metal thickness on the curvatures of sheet is also presented.

본 논문에서는 실내 전파 환경에서 5GHz 대역 무선LAN 신호를 투과 또는 차단하기 위한 종이기반 재구성 FSS를 설계하였다. 5GHz 대역에서 핀 다이오드의 ON/OFF 상태에 따라 통과 또는 차단이 가능한 재구성 FSS를 잉크젯 프린팅기법과 전도성 접착제를 이용하여 종이 위에 설계하였으며, 실내 환경을 가정한 공간 벽면에 적용하여 외부로부터 입사된 무선LAN 신호를 측정하여 신호의 세기에 따라 투과 또는 차단할 수 있는 제어 시스템을 설계하였다. 설계한 재구성 FSS 구조는 입사각과 편파에 대해 안정된 특성을 가지며, 설계결과를 검증하기 위하여 잉크젯 프린팅 방식으로 재구성 FSS를 제작하였다. 제작된 FSS 구조의 재구성동작을 측정을 통해 확인하고, 실내공간에 부착하여 실내공간에 유입되는 5GHz 대역 무선LAN 신호세기에 따라 FSS 구조가 재구성동작이 되는 시스템을 구현하고 측정을 통하여 확인하였다. 측정을 통하여 제작된 재구성 FSS 구조가 IEEE 802.11n의 5GHz 무선LAN 대역 중 5.745GHz~5.805GHz 대역의 신호를 약 20dB 차단하는 성능을 가짐을 확인하였다.

Press machines and dies are commonly used for 3D curved sheet forming. Using conventional die forming can cause economic problems since various modifications of the die shape are required depending on the product shape. Various types of flexible forming such as multi-point dieless forming (MDF), flexible incremental roll forming have been developed to improve the needed process flexibility. Although MDF can reduce the production cost using reconfigurable dies, it still has significant material loss. Drawbacks such as wrinkling, dimpling, and forming errors can also occur despite continuous investigations to mitigate these defects. A novel sheet forming process for 3D curved surfaces, a flexibly-reconfigurable roll forming (FRRF), has been recently proposed to overcome the economic and technical limitations of current practice. FRRF has no limitation on blank size in the longitudinal direction, and also minimizes or eliminates forming defects such as wrinkling and dimpling. Feasibility studies of FRRF have been conducted using FE simulations for multi-curved shapes and various sheet thicknesses. Therefore, the fabrication of a FRRF apparatus is required for any follow-up studies. In the current study, experiments with reconfigurable rollers were conducted using a simple design pre-FRRF apparatus prior to fabricating the full size FRRF apparatus. There are three candidates for the reconfigurable roller: a bar-type shaft, a flexible shaft, a ground flexible shaft. Among these candidates, the suitable reconfigurable roller for FRRF is determined through various forming tests.

Consider the two-dimensional sorted-set convex hull problem: Given N points in a plane sorted by the x coordinates, compute the convex hull of the points. We propose an O(logNlog logN)-time algorithm that solves the sorted-set convex hull problem on an N\ulcorner\ulcorner${\times}$N\ulcorner\ulcorner reconfigurable mesh. The best known algorithm for the problem on an N\ulcorner\ulcorner${\times}$N\ulcorner\ulcorner reconfigurable mesh takes O(log\ulcornerN) time. Although there is a constant-time algorithm on an N${\times}$N reconfigurable mesh for general two-dimensional convex hull problem, the general convex hull problem requires Θ(N\ulcorner\ulcorner) time on an N\ulcorner\ulcorner${\times}$N\ulcorner\ulcorner reconfigurable mesh due to bandwidth constraints.

This paper presents a neural network based adaptive control approach to a reconfigurable flight control law that keeps handling qualities in the presence of faults or failures to the control surfaces of an aircraft. This approach removes the need for system identification for control reallocation after a failure and the need for an accurate aerodynamic database for flight control design, thereby reducing the cost and time required to develope a reconfigurable flight controller. Neural networks address the problem caused by uncertainties in modeling an aircraft and pseudo control hedging deals with the nonlinearity in actuators and the reconfiguration of a flight controller. The effect of the reconfigurable flight control law is illustrated in results of a nonlinear simulation of an unmanned aerial vehicle Durumi-II.

In order to satisfy the requirement for various applications in an electronic device, many dynamically reconfigurable systems such as FPGAs have been used recently. This paper presents a pipelined scheduling for dynamically reconfigurable systems based on FPGAs. For reconfigurable systems conventional schedulings have reduced processing time by minimizing the number of reconfigurations. However, they are not effective enough for applications including many iterative processes such as digital signal processing. Our approach has been able to increase throughput of iterative applications on dynamically reconfigurable systems by using pipelined scheduling.
