In this paper, a X band voltage controlled oscillator is proposed. The oscillator uses a transistor as an oscillating element and its oscillating frequencies are controlled by the tuning voltage of varactor diode. Using the circuit simulation tools, the matching circuits between the transistor and varactor diode, its input and output matching circuits, and a feedback circuits are designed. The measured results of the fabricated oscillator show that its oscillation frequencies are from 10.50GHz to 10.88GHz according to the turning voltages of 1V to 18V, its output power levels are about 4.3dBm, and its phase noise is around -43.5dBc/Hz at 100kHz offset frequency of 10.5GHz.

The object of this study is to design the Radar Absorbing Structures (RAS) having sandwich structures in the X-band ($8.2{\sim}12.4GHz$) frequencies. Glass fabric/epoxy composites containing conductive carbon blacks and carbon fabric/epoxy composites were used for the face sheets. Polyurethane(PU) foams containing multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) were used for the core. Their permittivities in the X-band were measured using the transmission line technique. The reflection loss characteristics for multi-layered sandwich structures were calculated using the theory of transmission and reflection in a multi-layered medium. Three kinds of specimens were fabricated and their reflection losses in the X-band were measured using the free space technique. Experimental results were in good agreements with simulated ones in 10dB absorbing bandwidth.

The radar backscatter from various earth surfaces is sensitive to the frequency of the incident wave. This study examined the radar sensitivities for surface parameters such as soil moisture content and surface roughness of both bare and vegetated surfaces at X-band. Because L-band frequencies are often used for sensing the surface parameters, the sensitivities of X-band are also compared with those of the L-band. The sensitivities of the X-band radar backscatter were examined with respect to soil moisture content and surface roughness of rough bare soil surfaces. These sensitivities were also examined using the same parameters for vegetated surfaces for various vegetation densities and incidence angles. Use of the X-band radar for soil moisture detection was as effective as L-band radar for bare soil surfaces. For vegetated surfaces, the soil moisture could be detected using an X-band radar at lower incidence angles, where the upper limit of the incidence angles was dependent on vegetation density.

This paper proved experimentally that the disc array microstrip antenna designed and manufactured at X-band is capable to use for wide band antenna. This antenna arrayed the discs to have different resonant frequencies log-periodically on printed circuit board. The experimental result of this antenna showed the flat gain and good impedence matching characteristics. The VSWR of this antenna is 2.2 below through the system band.

A quarter-wavelength open circuited microstripline slot array is realized at X-band froquency. The optimal feeding point is experimentally determined. The input impedance of the slot array for various frequencies and its radiation pattern are measured. The bandwidth of the slot array is increased by using the 4$\times$4 elements which are slightly different in length and feeding network which is suggested in this papers.

In this paper, a triple-band planar antenna is proposed for the application to miniaturized automobile safety devices operating at X band(10.5 ㎓), K band(24.15 ㎓), and Ka band(34.3 ㎓). The frequency ratio between the resonant frequencies of this antenna can be adjusted from 1.99 to 2.23 for both X band and K band by varying its slit length. Parasitic elements are added on the modified slot loaded antenna to obtain the third resonance. From numerical as well as experimental results, it has been confirmed that this type of antenna is appropriate for planar multi-band antenna systems.

An accurate design method for rectangular microstrip patch antenna that can be applied to wide range of frequencies (C-band to X-band) is proposed. With due regard the frequency dependent effective dielectric permittivity to design formula, the inaccuracy of previous design formulae can be overcome. The results predicted by new procedure are compared well experimental results that had varying operation frequencies between 7GHz and 15GHz. Antennas are fabricated over microwave substrates with the same dielectric permittivity and thickness. Radiation power patterns are also measured and they well with theoretical values.

Developing of electromagnetic wave absorbers for GHz frequency, we used cast Alnico magnets. It is the first research paper to show that electromagnetic wave absorbers with Alnico magnets have good reflectivity in the GHz frequencies. Especially in this study, we used recycled cast Alnico magnets for natural resources problems and natural environment problems. New electromagnetic wave absorbers developed in this study are useful for X-band and C-band.

The non-polar optical phonon scattering in the valence band depends on the masses, ratios, and types of mixtures of constituent atoms. Therefore, the random distribution of atoms in alloy semiconductors should be considered in the analysis of scattering mechanisms. For this purpose, the force equations of n atoms in a unit cell are expressed in a n x n matrix form to obtain the angular frequencies due to the acoustic and non-polar optical phonons. And, n is then assumed to be infinity. When this work is compared with other results published elsewhere, it is concluded that the independence of atomic displacement or amplitude of oscillation as ell as the infinite number of atoms in a unit cell must be taken into account for the random distribution of atoms in alloy semiconductors.
