  • Collision avoidance is the most important part of a small vessel. Small and mediurn sized ships are surprisingly poor targets for radar reflection and are frequently in danger of being overrun by large vessels, even under good condition of visibility. One of the best way to prevent collisions at sea is to use as large and well designed a radar reflector. Thus, RCS(Radar Cross Section) increase is key element in the design of radar reflector. Radar Reflectors are normally classified into active-type and passive-type. In this paper, the RCS increase methods for passive-type reflector through shaping are explained, and analyzed with RCS performance test by computer simulation. As results from analysis, It is shown that the effective diameter of radar reflector is over 10 λ to provide a return above the threshold RCS of 25m$^2$, lower limit of detectability using X-band radar in a moderate sea.

  • In this paper, we reviewed major design parameters for a solid type of deployable antenna and its structural design. We performed modal analysis for a single reflector panel made of aluminum and CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastic) to confirm the appropriateness of selected materials. We then predicted the elastic modulus of CFRP using the principles of unidirectional composite elasticity stiffness predictions such as the ROM (Rule of Mixture) and HSR (Hart Smith 10% Rule). To optimize the shape of the antenna reflector, a structural stiffness analysis was performed using derived numerical optimization factors. Six structural stiffness analyses were performed using the constructed experimental design method. The resulting optimal shape conditions are proposed to meet the structural stiffness requirements while minimizing weight.

  • In this study, it was studied about the improved road light design for drivers and pedestrians using forward or reverse ray-tracing method. Many of conventional road lights are not suitable for drivers and pedestrians because it has some serious problems such as glare effect or randomicity of illuminated areas. It was oriented from customary design method which was pointed at simple target such as luminance or electrical power. But it was not truth any more that the high luminance or electrical power consumption mean more bright and good road light. We studied ray-tracing method for road light reflector design to get the several goals. It means that good road light has easy for drivers and pedestrians eyes and illuminating objects on the road clearly. So, we set the design targets such as uniformity on the road area per one road light, shading angles and continuous luminance uniformity on the long distance road. We designed ideal road light conditions using ray-tracing method. We set the height of drivers and pedestrians eyes and calculated design guideline to make above design targets. Then we designed road light reflector using reverse ray-tracing method. And we achieved same luminance on the road almost half power consumption because we reduced loss of light. We achieved ideal design guide as 75 degrees of shading angles and 0.5 of luminance uniformity on the road area. It is superior than conventional road light ability such as 0.35 of luminance uniformity of 400 watts power consumption lamp. Finally, we suggested reflector design for 250 watts power consumption CDM Iight source.

  • Recently infrared cameras have been widely used to diagnosis degradation status of the power substitution system. At the place of high magnetic field, however, electronic parts of infrared camera take a place problem that is not reasonable working due to high magnetic field. In this paper, technique of design for reflector is proposed to perform degradation diagnosis without damage of infrared camera in a power substation system including the rectifier that is able to impact to the infrared camera by high magnetic field.

  • The best methods for distribution controled of LED lighting fixtures is control to designed LED chip array, lens and reflector. However, lens design need distribution design to reflector for low-wattage LED lighting because of difficulty of production and reduction of light efficiency. In addition, it needs maximize of thermal performance to improve the efficiency and reliability of device. As a result, for the height of reflector 40[mm] and Inclination 25[$^{\circ}$], we can see the best distribution properties, and, in the thermal properties, junction temperature MCPCB 62.9 [$^{\circ}C$], FR4 PCB 89.6 [$^{\circ}C$], FR4 PCB from Via-hole is 63.1 [$^{\circ}C$]. it may improve for thermal properties for makes the Via-hole.

  • In this paper, the adaptive particle swarm optimization (APSO) algorithm is employed to design a gain-enhanced antenna with a reflector for energy harvesting. We placed the reflector below the main radiating element. Its back-radiated field is reflected and added to the forward radiated field, which could increase the antenna gain. We adopt the adaptive particle swarm optimization (APSO) algorithm, which improves the speed of convergence with a high frequency solver. The result shows that performance of the optimized design successfully satisfied the design goal of the frequency band, gain and axial ratio.

  • In this paper, we studied a reflector design that can improve the illuminance uniformity when using a xenon flash lamp in the photonic sintering process. To achieve complete sintering of substrates in the irradiated area, the light efficiency and illuminance uniformity were set to target performance. Existing elliptical reflectors or parabolic reflectors make it easy to satisfy the target light efficiency, but have difficulty satisfying the illuminance uniformity. In this paper, a twin-concave feature has been added to the center of the parabolic reflector to satisfy the illuminance uniformity. It was confirmed that the illuminance uniformity of the parabolic reflector with a twin-concave feature was improved, compared to that of the traditional reflector.
