The acoustic absorption of a multiple layer perforated plate system is very good near the resonance frequency region, while it has been regarded as a demerit that its frequency bandwidth is considerably narrow. In order to overcome such a demerit, the parallel perforated plates with different porosities are proposed. The sound absorption of such system composed of a parallel perforated plate is calculated by an equivalent electroatoustic circuit approach and validated by comparing the calculated absorption coefficients with those measured by the two-microphone impedance tube method. The sound absorptive characteristics and performance of parallel perforated plate systems are discussed from a standpoint of frequency bandwidth related with sound absorption.

In this paper, a new design for a Coplanar Waveguide(CPW) fed wide-band slot antenna is presented. To enhance the impedance bandwidth of the slot antenna, we proposed the tapering slot structure. A various resonance modes are generated in the tapering slot. The measured impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna is about 13:1(2.0 GHz∼25.9 GHz) with VSWR$\leq$2. Simulation and measurement results for return loss and radiation pattern are presented.

In this paper, a broadband sleeve monopole antenna using a loading coil in sleeve is proposed. The center frequency of the proposed antenna is 1,990MHz. The antenna of the proposed structure has the same of the single sleeve monopole antenna, except for using the coil instead of the inner conductor in sleeve. As a result, it is found that the bandwidth is 1.239~2.154 GHz(above 53.9 %) for $S_{11}=-10\;d B$(VSWR<2), and the antenna impedance is good for a communication system and feeder which the impedance has 50 Ω.

Strong surface waves among collinearly arranged patch antenna arrays pose unwanted inter element coupling particularly when high permittivity dielectric materials are used. In order to avert those waves, a novel Defected Ground Structure (DGS) is carved out systematically between two E-plane patch antenna elements. The introduced low profile μ shaped structure consequently improves impedance bandwidth and reflection coefficient by suppressing surface waves considerably. Parametric simulation results are analyzed and discussed.

In this paper, we have proposed a wide band antenna for manpack SDR(Software Defined Radio). The proposed antenna consists of feeding post, flexible gooseneck and two radiating elements composed of a upper and lower radiators. The upper radiator has a longer electrical length than the lower radiator in order to operate in the lower frequency. Also, the resonant frequency and impedance characteristics of the antenna can be adjusted independently for two radiators. Therefore, the proposed antenna can be achieved wide impedance bandwidth by the combination of two independent resonance modes. To analyze the characteristics of the antenna in the design process is employed the equivalent circuit theory and EM(Electro-Magnetic) simulation. The measurement results show that the proposed antenna have the sufficient wide bandwidth, above -3.4dBi of the gain and fairly good radiation pattern over the wide bandwidth.

In this paper, we introduce a design method for a quasi-Yagi antenna (QYA) with broadband characteristics of an impedance bandwidth ratio of > 2 : 1 and a gain of > 4 dBi. The QYA is fed by a microstrip line fabricated on a coplanar strip line and it consists of 3 elements; a planar dipole, a nearby director close to the dipole, and a ground plane reflector. By placing a rectangular patch-type director with large width near to the dipole driver, broadband characteristics are achieved. An optimized 3-element QYA for operation over 1.6-3.5 GHz (bandwidth ratio 2.2 : 1) is fabricated on an FR4 substrate with a size of $90mm{\times}90mm$ and tested experimentally. The results show an impedance bandwidth of 1.56-3.74 GHz (bandwidth ratio 2.4 : 1) for VSWR < 2, a peak gain of 4.41-6.53 dBi, and a front-to-back ratio (FBR) > 13.6 dB within the bandwidth.

In this paper, a integrated phase-locked loop(PLL) as a clock multiphase generator for a high speed serial link is designed. The designed PLL keeps the same bandwidth and damping factor by using programmable current mirror in the whole operation frequency range. Also, the close-loop transfer function and VCO's phase-noise transfer function of the designed PLL are obtained with circuit netlists. The self impedance on board-mounted chip is calculated according to sizes and positions of decoupling capacitors. Especially, the detailed self-impedance analysis is carried out between frequency ranges represented the maximum gain in the close-loop transfer function and the maximum gain in the VCO's phase noise transfer function. We shows PLL's jitter characteristics by decoupling capacitor's sizes and positions from this result. The designed PLL has the wide operating range of 0.4GHz to 2GHz in operating voltage of 1.8V and it is designed 0.18-um CMOS process. The reference clock is 100MHz and PLL power consumption is 17.28mW in 1.2GHz.

This paper introduces a ring hybrid coupler using shunt capacitors, high impedance lines and CRLH-TLs (Composite Right/Left-Handed Transmission Lines) with size reduction and bandwidth enhancement. The reduced method of line length uses to combine a short length high impedance line and shunt capacitors. Also, there is combined CRLH meta-material so as to obtain wide bandwidth of transmission line using nonlinear phase characteristic of CRLH-TL that consists of series capacitors and shunt inductors. The implemented ring hybrid coupler shows a novel design with compact size that is smaller than 10% and bandwidth is larger than 60% of conventional ring hybrid coupler.

This paper introduces a high-efficiency, high-gain, broadband quasi-Yagi antenna, and its four-element array for use in 60-GHz wireless communications. The antenna was fed by a microstrip-to-slotline transition consisting of a curved microstripline and a circular slot to allow broadband characteristics. A corrugated ground plane was employed as a reflector to improve the gains in the low-frequency region of the operation bandwidth, and consequently, to reduce variation. The single antenna yielded an impedance bandwidth of 49 to 69 GHz for $|S_{11}|$ <-10dB and a gain of >12.0 dBi while the array exhibited a bandwidth of 52 to 68 GHz and a gain greater than 15.0 dBi. Both proposed designs had small gain variations (${\pm}0.5$ dBi) and high radiation efficiency (>95%) in the 60-GHz bands. The features of the proposed antenna were validated by designing, fabricating, and testing a scaled-up configuration of the single antenna at the 15-GHz band. The measurements resulted in an impedance bandwidth of 13.0 to 17.5 GHz for $|S_{11}|$ <-10dB, a gain of 10.1 to 13.2 dBi, and radiation efficiency in excess of 88% within this bandwidth. Additionally, the 15-GHz antenna yielded quite symmetric radiation profiles in both E- and H-planes, with a high front-to-back ratio.

This paper presents the structure of a broadband coplanar waveguide(CPW) fed square slot antenna with a impedance bandwidth tuning patch. The designing method of the antenna suggests that two resonant frequencies are excited as a dual-frequency dipole antenna following the dimensions of the square slot. In other words, the lower resonant frequency mainly depends on the slot width and the higher one its length. A CPW fed square slot antenna with a impedance tuning patch was measured to $20GHz^\~33GHz$, $50\%$, VSWR=2 impedance bandwidth by adjusting the dimensions of the tuning patch when the slot length had $70\%$ of its width. This result shows that a medical CPW fed antenna is easily implemented with a simple square slot structure including a bandwidth tuning patch in the center.
