Wireless energy transmission system to a Micro Aerial Vehicle is now under development. A 5.8 GHz microwave phased array antenna and rectenna array receiver have been developed. An electric motor on a circling MAV model was driven by the transmitted power. In addition, 140GHz millimeter-waves of up to 1MW was beamed to a "Microwave Rocket" and its thrusting has been successfully demonstrated.

This paper proposes a method providing diversity gain using small base stations in a cell coverage in order to improve diversity gain. The small base stations and the conventional base station consist a virtual MIMO array by using the cooperative communication scheme. Also, transmission diversity scheme is applied. A mobile user can receive the signals having the improved reliability by the applied transmission diversity scheme and the cooperative communication scheme.

A new computationally efficient algorithm-based propagator method for two-dimensional (2-D) direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation is proposed, which uses two parallel uniform linear arrays. The algorithm takes advantage of the special structure of the array which enables 2-D DOA estimation without pair matching. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves very accurate estimation at a computational cost 4 dB lower than that of standard methods.

A T-shaped microstripline-fed printed slot array antenna having wide bandwidth, high gain, and narrow bandwidth is presented in this paper. The proposed antenna is analyzed by using the transmission line model method. We fabricated 4$\times$1 microstrip slot array antenna and measured its return loss and radiation pattern. The maximum bandwidth of this array antenna is from 1.43 ㎓ to 2.60 ㎓, which is 58.1% for the VSWR $\leq$ 2.

In this paper, an analytic method is proposed to extract the reference slot admittance required for the design of a non-resonant waveguide edge slot array. A slot and two neighboring transmission line sections of the numerous alternately inclined slots with the identical inclination angle are modelled as a uniform lossy transmission line, and thus, the total ABCD matrix is easily calculated and compared with the simulated or measured one. From this procedure, the complex characteristic impedance and the complex propagation constant of the lossy transmission line are calculated and the normalized slot admittance is analytically obtained. In order to validate the proposed method, the admittance value of a reference slotted waveguide fabricated for designing the X-band edge slot array is extracted and it is compared with the one obtained by the other conventional method.

In order to increase the coupling efficiency of the power and phase of the active phase array antenna, we have fabricated the active phased-array antenna which is coupled by the transmission line, and investigated the relationship between the length of the coupling transmission line and coupling power and phase. The following three types of driving method - (1) giving the frequency difference between the two active antenna, (2) applying the input signal to the one side of the two antennas, and changing the eigen frequency of the other side antenna, (3) appling the different phase inputs to the active antennas was investigated. The experimental results showed that the interval of the antenna elements has not affected the power and the phase of the antenna.

Coupling of non-linear oscillators have long been an interesting problem for physicists. The coupling phenomena have been frequently observed in Josephson junction series array, which have been used for Josephson voltage standard. Interestingly pronounced self-generation effect has been found during recent development of Josephson arrays for programmable Josephson voltage standard. But the coupling effect between the self-generations is not fully understood yet. We present harmonically approximated analytical solutions for coupled self-generations in the Josephson arrays, i.e., Superconductor-Insulator-Normal metal-Insulator-Superconductor (SINIS) array, externally shunted Superconductor-Insulator-Supercondctor (es-SIS) array, Superconductor-Normal metal-Superconductor (SNS) array. We find that the coupling between the self-generated Josephson oscillations through microwave transmission line plays critical role in microwave property of the Josephson array.

This paper presents light transmission efficiency by optical adhesive thickness between MLA and aperture layer and by aperture hole size. The gap between MLA and Aperture layer is adjusted by the shim. The more optical adhesive thickness increases, the better light transmission efficiency increases up to a point. After that, the light transmission efficiency decreases because stray lights cannot transmit through the aperture layer owing to cut-off by aperture layer. And as a result of light transmission efficiency with changing aperture hole size, the light transmission efficiency is proportional to area of aperture hole. The more specified process is made, the better data and sample will be got.

In this paper, the concept of ultrasonic transmission imaging system with crossed -arrays is Introduced. The crossed-array system is simulated by angular spectrum method In the operating frequency of 12MHz. A theoritical development of a system transfer function matrix 1M is presented. Using this matrix, a priori knowledge on the physical properties of the system is understood. It proves to be a block Toeplitz matrix with Toeplitz entries. Using the Inversion procedure, the spatial degradations of the measured image can be removed.

This paper presents the results of the numerical simulation of a multibeam active phased array antenna for a High Altitude Platform Station (HAPS). The simulation takes into account the random errors caused by the non-identity of the array elements and the inaccuracy of the antenna calibration. The results of our statistical simulation show that the strict requirements on the sidelobe envelope for HAPSs can be met when the amplitude and phase distribution errors are minor, a condition which may be achieved by using digital beamforming.
