This paper presents a procedure to optimize the design of 70GHz band array antenna for automotive short range radar sensor applications using Chebyshev polynomials. SRR(: Short Range Radar) systems require a wide angle width and low Side lobe level to detect targets within close proximity while ensuring a high Field of View(FoV). The optimized antenna operates in the 76 to 81GHz frequency range, and to reduce the antenna size, we arranged 12 patches in series, achieving an SLL of 10dB, angle with of 112.5o, gain of 15.4dB and an input return loss of less than -10dB at 78GHz. In this paper, we proceed with antenna design for SRR using Chebyshev polynomials, and present an optimal design for antenna structures to be used in MRR(: Medium-Range Radar) and LRR(: Long Range Radar) applications based on this paper

In this paper, we have proposed a hexagonal patch UWB antenna with a band notch characteristic where the notch band of 5.15 ~ 5.85 GHz band of WLAN was induced by inserting a circular slit in the patch. The impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna meet the band width criteria of UWB communication system where is mentioned as frequencies range form 3.1 ~ 11.8 GHz. The characteristic band at 5.2 ~ 5.8 GHz notch band was observed. The radiation pattern of the antenna shows a directinal radiation pattern at $0^{\circ}$ and $180^{\circ}$ in XZ-plane and YZ-plane is an omni-directional pattern, respectively. In addition, it is observed that increase in frequency results in increases of the antenna gain whereas the notch band section is decreased. The proposed antenna was designed TRF-45 substrate with thickness of 1.62 mm, a loss tangent of 0.0035, a relative permittivity of 4.5 and designed were used Ansys Inc. HFSS.

We design a slotted waveguide antenna for X-band which a 1.4m length with slot depth variation. A 54 slot array is modeled and simulated by CST, and the side lobe level is suppressed effectively in a certain range of frequency. The experimental results of the antenna show that its gain, maximum sidelobe level and half power beam-width are 21.8dB, -31dB and 2.0deg, respectively.

The magnetic properties of amorphous Fe were investigated by examining the electronic structures of structurally disordered Fe systems generated from crystalline bcc and fcc Fe using a Monte-Carlo simulation. As a rst principles band method, the real space spin-polarized tight-binding linearized-mun-tin-orbital recursion method was used in the local spin density approximation. Compared to the crystalline system, the electronic structures of the disordered systems were characterized by a broadened band width, smoothened local density of states, and reduced local magnetic moment. The magnetic structures depend on the short range configurations. The antiferromagnetic structure is the most stable for a bcc-based disordered system, whereas the noncollinear spin spiral structure is more stable for a fcc-based system.

The luminescence properties of polycrystalline ZnO annealed in reducing ambience ($H_2/N_2$) have been studied. An effective quenching of green luminescence with enhanced UV emission from polycrystalline ZnO is observed for the reduced ZnO. The variations of the UV and green luminescence band upon reduction treatment are investigated as a function of temperature in the range between 20 and 300 K. Upon annealing treatment in reducing ambience, the optical quality of polycrystalline ZnO is improved. The UV to green intensity ratio of sintered ZnO approaches close to zero (~0.05). However, this ratio reaches more than 13 at room temperature for polycrystalline ZnO annealed at $800^{\circ}C$ in reducing ambience. Furthermore, the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the UV band of polycrystalline ZnO is reduced compared to unannealed polycrystalline ZnO. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements clearly show that there is no direct correlation between the green luminescence and oxygen vacancy concentration for reduced polycrystalline ZnO.

We have developed a measurement system with which harmful radio noise can be detected. It was designed to cover 1GHz band width centered at l.5GHz and 22.2GHz ($H_2O$ line).The system consists of pyramid horn antennas, receivers, equatorial tracking system, spectrum analyzer, and PC for the control of the servo and data taking. As a test of the system, the site of Taeduk Radio Astronomy Observatory (TRAO) was investigated to see if there is any harmful radio interference. It is found that in 22GHz band there is no significant radio noise, but there are identified and unidentified artificial radio signals in 1-2GHz range. However a simple calculation of radiation power shows that it is week enough not to affect the observations in TRAO.

This paper presents the method to extract the ultrawide-band (UWB) signal and proposes the simple impulse radar system for sensing real-based target within close-range area. The proposed impulse radar system consists of impulse generator, ultrawide-band antennas, function generator, and digital oscilloscope. It is verified by experiment that a differentiated Gaussian pulse is generated with 200ps of pulse width and corresponding spectrum from 0.3 to 4.7 GHz once a sinusoidal wave with 10MHz is excited. The Gaussian doublet is received by identical antennas and it is shown that the UWB pule width of 328ps and its spectrum is from 0.9 to 4.4 GHz. It is confirmed that the UWB pulse is extracted when the real-based targets such as circular target with 4cm radius and corner reflector are placed at the close-range area.

In this paper, X-band 60 W Solid-State Power Amplifier with sequential control circuit and pulse width variation circuit for improve bias of SSPA module was designed. The sequential control circuit operate in regular sequence drain bias switching of GaAs FET. The distortion and efficiency of output signals due to SSPA nonlinear degradation is increased by making operate in regular sequence the drain bias wider than that of RF input signals pulse width if only input signal using pulsed width variation. The GaAs FETs are used for the 60 W SSPA module which is consists of 3-stage modules, pre-amplifier stage, driver-amplifier stage and main-power amplifier stage. The main power amplifier stage is implemented with the power combiner, as a balanced amplifier structure, to obtain the power greater than 60 W. The designed SSPA modules has 50 dB gain, pulse period 1 msec, pulse width 100 us, 10 % duty cycle and 60 watts output power in the frequency range of 9.2~9.6 GHz and it can be applied to solid-state pulse compression radar using pulse SSPA.

This paper proposed a PFM(pulse-frequency modulator) boost converter which has dual pulse-width. The PFM boost converter is composed of BGR(band gap voltage reference generating circuit), voltage reference generating circuit, soft-start circuit, error amplifier, high-speed comparator, inductor current sensing circuit and pulse-width generator. Converter has different inductor peak current so it has wider load current range and smaller output voltage ripple. Proposed PFM boost converter generates 18V output voltage with input voltage of 3.7V and it has load current range of 0.1~300mA. Simulation results show 0.43% output voltage ripple at ligh load mode and 0.79% output voltage ripple at heavy load mode. Converter has efficiency 85% at light lode mode and it has maximum 86.4% at 20mA load current.

This study was conducted to develope a fertilizer-soil incorporation band tiller for the walking cultivator. Because the mixing of soil and fertilizer in the furrow of dry-field has been done manually, several time, heavy labor and much man power were required for the job. This rotary type implement is developed to substitute this manual operation for soil-fertilizer incorporation. The results of this study are summarized as follows : 1) This implement was composed of tilling device, fertilizer application device, frame and tail wheel device. 2) The revolution of driving wheel was $11\~28\;rpm$, that of application roller was $13\~14\;rpm$ the application rate range per revolution of driving wheel was $4.43\~11.80\;g$g and the application rate range by the working speed and the opening quantity was $84.12\~557.20\;g/min$. 3) The adequate working speed was $0.20\~0.40\;m/s$ and the required minimum width of open furrow was 250 mm.
