This paper proposes a circularly polarized microstrip antenna using an I-shape ground slot perturbation and a perpendicular feeding network. The proposed antenna consists of the symmetrical and perpendicular feeding and the microstrip square radiator loaded with the I-shape ground slot perturbation. The left-handed circular polarization(LHCP) formed by a 90-degree phase difference can be radiated by the perpendicular feeding network and the ground slot perturbation. An implemented antenna is designed for the use in the satellite communication system operated in S-band of 2.2 GHz, and is to be the 91 MHz of -10 dB bandwidth. The measured results of the antenna gain, far-field radiation pattern, and axial ratio agree well with the simulation results.

This paper proposes a novel reconfigurable microstrip antenna based on alternating a perturbation structure to achieve circular polarization diversity. The proposed antenna consists of an annular ring microstrip radiator for simultaneously loading stub and slot perturbations which support right- and left-handed circular polarization senses and two PIN diodes for choosing the operating polarization sense. By controlling the states of two PIN diodes between perturbing slot and stub at one diagonal corner of the radiator, reconfigurable circular polarization senses of the proposed antenna are successfully obtained and alternated. The proposed antenna has been theoretically analyzed and experimentally demonstrated at 2.4 GHz of S-band for satellite communication system. The simulation and measurement results of the proposed antenna show in good agreement with the reflection coefficients, axial-ratios, realized antenna gains, and radiation patterns.

In this paper, we propose an adaptive-perturbation-aided opportunistic precoding (APOP) scheme for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. To update a precoding matrix in MIMO systems, the proposed algorithm produces a random perturbation in each time slot. Then the additional adaptive perturbation is also applied, which depends on the reports of achievable data-rates from users. If the prior random perturbation increased the data rate, the adaptive perturbation is set to be the same as the prior random perturbation, otherwise the negative value of the prior random perturbation is applied for adaptive perturbation. Furthermore, to enhance the achievable data rates, the information on the stored precoding matrices in the memory as well as the currently generated precoding matrix is used for scheduling. Simulation results show that compared to conventional opportunistic precoding schemes, higher data rates are achieved by the proposed APOP scheme, especially when there are a relatively small number of users.

A compact circular microstrip patch antenna with a switchable circular polarization(CP) is proposed at 2.4 GHz. An unequal cross-shaped slot on a ground plane is utilized as a perturbation. By switching pin diodes mounted on the slot, the CP sense of each antenna can be simply switched from left-handed(LH) CP to right-handed(RH) CP vice versa. Since the perturbation can be made on the ground plane and no bias circuit is required on the patch side, the bias circuit has not effect on the main beam radiation. From the experimental results, the impedance bandwidth and CP bandwidth of the proposed antenna have shown up to 150 MHz and 35 MHz, respectively. The peak gain of the proposed antenna is 1.7 dBi for both CP senses.

In this paper, a waveguide-type resonator with a slot is proposed to measure permittivity of thin film from resonant frequency shifting by an attached MUT(Material Under Test). The MUT on the slot shifts resonant frequency by perturbation of electromagnetic field. Amount of shifting resonance frequency is dependent on the permittivity of MUT, and that relation is obtained from numerical simulation. The measured relative permittivity of a thin film with thickness of $65{\mu}m$ is 3.3492 with standard error of ${\pm}0.0605$ in the frequency range of 2 GHz to 3 GHz. Also the proposed method is compared with other measuring methods such as dielectric resonator and waveguide probe systems.

In this paper, a microstrip balun-BPF of slotted-square-patch type is proposed. The conventional balun-BPF has some drawbacks of narrow bandwidth and high insertion loss. In order to improve these weak points, we used a square patch in designing balun-BPF on which two slots intersecting perpendicularly and one corner-edge perturbation are adopted. This structure allows one of the most effective use of the patch space so that the insertion loss can be decreased. Changing the slot lengths is use to control the operating frequency and the bandwidth of the balun-BPF. A fabricated balun-BPF shows wide bandwidth of 300 MHz(12.7 %), small insertion loss of 0.56 dB, phase difference of $184^{\circ}{\pm}15^{\circ}$ and amplitude imbalances of within 1 dB between two output ports at 2.4 GHz band.

Combustion instability occurred in the combustion test of solid rocket motor with large aspect ration Length/Diameter (L/D) and cylinder-slot grain. As a result of spectral analysis of the pressure perturbation, it was confirmed that the central axis longitudinal frequency was dominant, so that the length of the cylinder part was increased to eliminate the coincidence with acoustic node. In addition, acoustic modal analysis and flow analysis were performed to analyze the cause of instability by unsteady flow structure in solid rocket motors. It was confirmed that the combustion instability is reduced by quantitative comparison of the amplitude and frequencies of the pressure inside the combustion chamber using the grain shape before and after the design change. Finally, a combustion test was performed to verify that the combustion instability was resolved as in the flow analysis.
