In this paper, we proposed a divided two-arms spiral slot antenna fed by coplanar waveguide using the magnetic flow at slots. This antenna has characteristics of which one is to short-circuit at the end of the slot and another is to turn spirals separately. To reduce the offset of magnetic flow, two spiral slots are fed by 1800 phase difference. Because we proposed a printed two-arms spiral slot antenna without a balun circuit, antenna size become smaller substantially. And frequency characteristics are studied using the various design parameters. The bandwidth of the realized antenna is $2.7{\sim}12\;GHz$ below the return loss of -10 dB.

In this paper a novel two-arm microstrip spiral antenna with a circular slot on the ground plane is presented. The proposed antenna structure is constructed in a planar form without a balun circuit and the radiation characteristics of conventional and eccentric spiral antennas are obtained simultaneously. The main beam direction is normal to the plane of the spiral for characteristic frequency band and the direction of the main beam moves linearly into $\theta$ and $\phi$ direction as the frequency increases.

In this paper, compact broad-band antenna using circular spiral slot and CPW (coplanar waveguide) feed is proposed. The proposed antenna is designed on the same plane of the substrate by using CPW fed structure, archimediean spiral slot structure. So it was achieved both the size of compact antenna and the broad band. A archimediean spiral slot structure is introduced for resonance of medium band operation. The distances of a CPW feeder line and a ground plane are modified for impedance matching and lower/higher band operation. The proposed antenna has a compact size ($8mm\;{\times}\;13mm$) and it is etched on the FR-4 (relative dielectric constant 4.4, thickness 0.8mm) dielectric substrate. The simulated impedance bandwidth (VSWR $\leq$ 2) and maximum gain of the proposed antenna are 5.98GHz (4.1GHz ~ 10.08GHz) and 3.97dBi, respectively. The measured impedance bandwidth (VSWR $\leq$ 2) and maximum gain of the proposed antenna are 6.02GHz (4.48GHz ~ 10.5GHz) and 2.68dBi, respectively. The simulation and measured result shows good impedance matching and radiation pattern over the interesting frequency bands. It can be applied to antenna of broad-band wireless communication system.

A novel microstrip circular slot antenna fed by a spiral line is presented in this paper. This antenna is a planar equivalent structure of an eccentric spiral antenna generates a circularly-polarized wave. We have investigated the input impedance and radiation characteristics of this antenna by using an EM (electromagnetic) simulator, and obtained a design method [or optimum structure. The main characteristic of the antenna is that the main beam direction is off-normal to the antenna plane and moves linearly into ${\theta }$ and ${\phi }$ direction as the frequency increases. This feature allows one to predict the main beam direction easily for a given operating frequency. This antenna has axial ratio lower than 3 dB in the direction of main beam over one octave bandwidth.

There have three kinds of partial discharge diagnosis testing: online, offline and dismantled testing on high voltage rotating machine. Our lab testing is dismantled testing, taking off pieces into individual parts of stator coil of high voltage rotating machine in laboratory. We investigate internal discharge, slot discharge, corona discharge and normal state on pre-made stator winding by using spiral patch antenna sensor. In this lab test we compare the experimental results of our spiral patch antenna sensor and reference commercial HFCT sensor.
