The laser-induced fluorescence excitation spectrum of 7-amino-4-(trifluoromethyl)coumarin in a supersonic jet has been recorded in the 340-352 nm region. The electronic band origin was observed at 28622.8 cm-1. Vibrational assignments for the three fundamental low-frequency modes and eight combination bands have been made for the S1 electronic excited state. The out-of-plane vibrations of this molecule have been characterized from the low-frequency assignments of the spectrum. The periodic potential energy function for the CF3 torsion, which satisfactorily fits the observed data, were also determined to be V(Φ)=95X(1-cos3Φ)-32X(1-cos6Φ) where Φ is the torsional angle. The relatively low torsional barrier of 99 cm-1 in S1 state could be explained by the small steric interactions between the functional groups attached to a bicyclic ring.

This study is to design FMCW radar transceiver of K-band which is used to detect and track approaching high speed targets with low altitude. The transmitter needs high output power due to small RCS targets and wide beamwidth of transmit antenna. Multi-channel receivers are required to detect and track targets by interferometer method. Transmitter consists of high power amplifier, waveguide switch, and frequency up-converter. Receiver is composed of five channel receivers, up and down converters, X-band local oscillator and waveform generator. Before manufacturing it, the proposed architecture of transceiver is proved by modeling and simulation using several parameters. Then, it is manufactured by using industrial RF components. The performance parameters are measured through experiment. In the experiment, transmitting power and receiver gain were measured with 39.64 dBm and 29.1 dB, respectively. All other parameters in the specification were satisfied as well.

In this paper, we study the characteristics of dual band microstip antenna with modified inset feeder and a single slot. The modified inset feeder consists of the vertical inset feeder placed in x direction and the horizontal one in y direction for shortening the total length of inset feeder. The optimun feeding position for good impedance matching at two resonant frequencies can be easily found by adjusting the horizontal inset distance. And Various frequency ratios can be simply obtained by the parameters of slot. The measurements for fabricated antenna prototypes are carried out for validation. The measured results show a tunable frequency ratio from 1.25 to 1.88 with the variation of slot parameters. It is worthwhile to point out that the radiation patterns are similar at both bands. and below -20.0 dB of cross polarization level at the E plane.

Phononic crystals are composite materials consisting of a periodic arrangement of scattering inclusions in a host material. One of the most important properties of phononic crystals is the existence of band gaps, i.e., ranges of frequencies at which acoustic waves cannot propagate through the structure. The present study aims to investigate theoretically and experimentally the acoustic band structures in two-dimensional (2D) phononic crystals consisting of periodic square arrays of stainless steel solid cylinders with a diameter of 1 mm and a lattice constant of 1.5 mm in water. The theoretical dispersion relation that depicts the relationship between the frequency and the wave vector was calculated along the ${\Gamma}X$ direction of the first Brillouin zone using the finite element method to predict the band structures in the 2D phononic crystals. The transmission and the reflection coefficients were measured in the 2D phononic crystals with 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 layers of stainless steel cylinders stacked in the perpendicular direction to propagation at normal incidence. The theoretical dispersion relation exhibited five band gaps at frequencies below 2 MHz, the first gap appearing around a frequency of 0.5 MHz. The location and the width of the band gaps experimentally observed in the transmission and the reflection coefficients appeared to coincide well with those determined from the theoretical dispersion relation.

2-D MT surveys at the Century mine in Australia have been performed with very far remote reference in Esashi, Japan as well as Gregory Downs, which are roughly 6400 km and 80 km apart from the field site, respectively. Long period pulsations observed in this survey generally showed dominant $H_x$ polarization than $H_y$; $H_x$ component is more than 3 times stronger than $H_y$ component. Polarity reversal in magnetic field pointing east ($H_y$ component) has also been observed in long period pulsations, while $H_x$ component remain coherent between the hemispheres. Though $H_x$ component shows relatively good coherency than $H_y$ component between the hemispheres at frequencies lower than 0.01 Hz, it seems rather too far to be used as a remote reference for ordinary MT frequency band.

In this paper, we analyze the main performance of satellite's Synthetic Aperture Radar system for high resolution and wide swath. We have used the radiation pattern of reflector antenna with array feed and comparison between the conventional ScanSAR mode and SweepSAR mode has been carried out. The SweepSAR mode is a high-resolution wide-swath mode that transmits beams over a wide range and receives echo signals through sequential beamforming based on SCORE(SCan On REceive). In this paper, we analyzed the operating principle and characteristics of satellite's SweepSAR mode and simulate system performances. In addition, in order to increase the utilization of image, performances analysis for multiple frequency bands(C-band, X-band) has been considered.

The design and fabrication of Q-band 3-stage monolithic microwave integrated circuit(MMIC) driver and power amplifiers for WLAN are presented using 0.2${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ AlGaAs/InGaAs/GaAs pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor(PHEMT). In each stage of the MMIC DA, a negative feedback is used for both broadband and good stability. The MMIC PA has employed a balanced configuration to overcome these difficulties and achieve high power with low VSWR over a wide frequency range. In the MMIC DA, the measurement results arc achieved as an input return loss under -4dB, an output return loss under -l0dB, a gain of 14dB, and a PldB of 17dB at C-band(36~ 44GHz). The chip size is 28mm$\times$1.3mm. The developed MMIC PA has the l0dB linear gain over 360Hz to 420Hz band and 22dBm PldB performance at 400Hz. The size of fabricated MMIC PA is 4mm x3mm. These results closely match with design results. This MMIC DA Sl PA will be used as the unit cells to develop millimeter-wave transmitters for use in wideband wireless LAN systems.

Soybean has widely grown for its edible bean which has numerous uses. Microwave remote sensing has a great potential over the conventional remote sensing with the visible and infrared spectra due to its all-weather day-and-night imaging capabilities. In this investigation, a ground-based polarimetric scatterometer operating at multiple frequencies was used to continuously monitor the crop conditions of a soybean field. Polarimetric backscatter data at L, C, and X-bands were acquired every 10 minutes on the microwave observations at various soybean stages. The polarimetric scatterometer consists of a vector network analyzer, a microwave switch, radio frequency cables, power unit and a personal computer. The polarimetric scatterometer components were installed inside an air-conditioned shelter to maintain constant temperature and humidity during the data acquisition period. The backscattering coefficients were calculated from the measured data at incidence angle $40^{\circ}$ and full polarization (HH, VV, HV, VH) by applying the radar equation. The soybean growth data such as leaf area index (LAI), plant height, fresh and dry weight, vegetation water content and pod weight were measured periodically throughout the growth season. We measured the temporal variations of backscattering coefficients of the soybean crop at L, C, and X-bands during a soybean growth period. In the three bands, VV-polarized backscattering coefficients were higher than HH-polarized backscattering coefficients until mid-June, and thereafter HH-polarized backscattering coefficients were higher than VV-, HV-polarized back scattering coefficients. However, the cross-over stage (HH > VV) was different for each frequency: DOY 200 for L-band and DOY 210 for both C and X-bands. The temporal trend of the backscattering coefficients for all bands agreed with the soybean growth data such as LAI, dry weight and plant height; i.e., increased until about DOY 271 and decreased afterward. We plotted the relationship between the backscattering coefficients with three bands and soybean growth parameters. The growth parameters were highly correlated with HH-polarization at L-band (over r=0.92).

The microwave dielectric properties of (Na.$_{1}$2//Sm$_{1}$2/)TiO$_3$and (Li$_{1}$2//Nd$_{1}$2/)TiO$_3$ceramics were investigated. Dielectric constant quality factor and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency of (Li$_{1}$2//Nd$_{1}$2/)TiO$_3$ceramics sintered at 145$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours were 86.2, 2780(at 3.8GHz) and 215ppm/$^{\circ}C$respectively. The solid solution of X(Na.$_{1}$2//Sm$_{1}$2/)TiO$_3$-(1-X)(Li$_{1}$2//Nd$_{1}$2/)TiO$_3$increased delectric constant and quality factor were decreased. Whereas temperature coefficient of resonant frequency was optimized to zero at the composition of 0.6(Li$_{1}$2//Sm$_{1}$2/)TiO$_3$-0.4(Li$_{1}$2//Nd$_{1}$2/)TiO$_3$where dielectric constant and quality factor were 86.2, 95-(at 3.8GHz) respectively. Also band-pass filters made of this material were examined.
