In this paper, a novel embedded ultra wideband (UWB) band-pass filter is presented on a FR-4 package substrate including high Dk resin coated copper (${\varepsilon}_r=30$) film. The proposed UWB filter is comprised of a parallel resonator with meander-type uniform impedance resonator (UIR) and two series resonators with high Q circular stacked spiral inductor and metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor. In order to obtain excellent attenuation characteristics by generating attenuation poles in lower and upper stop bands, a single MIM capacitor is added to each resonator. The fabricated FR-4 embedded UWB filter has insertion loss of -1.0dB and return loss of -11dB, respectively. It has also extremely wide bandwidth (over 50%) and small size ($3.7{\times}4{\times}0.77\;mm^3$) which is compatible with LTCC devices.

The purpose of this study is to research and develop tin oxide-flyash composite for lithium Ion polymer battery. Tin oxide is one of the promising material as a electrode active material for lithium Ion polymer battery (LIPB). Tin-based oxides have theoretical volumetric and gravimetric capacities that are four and two times that of carbon, respectively. We investigated cyclic voltammetry, AC impedance and charge/discharge cycling of SnO$_2$-flyash/SPE/Li cells. The first discharge capacity of SnO$_2$-flyash composite anode was 639 mAh/g. The discharge capacity of SnO$_2$-flyash composite anode was 563 and 472 mAh/g at 6th and 15th cycle, respectively. The SnO$_2$-flyash composite anode with PVDF-PMMA-PC-EC-LiClO$_4$ electrolyte showed good capacity with cycling.

In this study, 2-2 type piezocomposites were made and characteristics as volume fraction of PZT were investigated. The accoustic impedance of 2-2 piezoelectric composites was linearly decreased with decreasing PZT volume fraction. when the volume fraction of PZT was 0.2 the acoustic impedance was 3.2 Mrayl. The electromechanical coupling factor was favourable in comparison with the single phase PZT, and that was about uniformed about 0.68 in the 0.2 to 0.6 of PZT volume fraction.

The devices with a structure of ITO/$Alq_3$/Al were fabricated and their impedance properties were analyzed. It is obtained that an effect of resistance $R_p$ of the device was dominant at the low frequency and the high voltage region, emitting region, and it is ignored at the high frequency region. Capacitance $C_p$ appears intensely in a range of all frequencies of non-emitting region, below turn on voltage.

Recently, high story apartments are common to solve a housing problem especially in major cities. Apartments are considered as clean, sanitary and convenient to live. However, There are some problems because residents share walls, floors and ceilings with other people. Thus, the residents are often disturbed by neighbours since sound travels the building elements. Especially, impact noise through the floors causes the many complains. And so, it has been drawn attention to isolate by the impact sound. The purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics of vibration response of 12-type void slabs in the improved void slab by impedance method, and is to find the best improveds void slab on the 12-type void slabs.

In this research a 2-dimensional motion generator composed of two linear motors was developed. The inertia, damping and/or stiffness characteristics of the motion generator can be changed on the real-time basis by properly regulating the force generated by the linear motors. That is, active impedance is implemented without actual change in the physical structure of the motion generator. Control of the motor force is carried out by controlling the input currents supplied to the linear motors based on the combination of the PI controller and feedforward controller. This motion generator can be used to measure a kinesthetic sense associated with the human arm and thus to develop the products for which the kinesthetic sense is taken into account.

The characteristics of the standard floor impact sources and the human impact source were investigated. First, the mechanical impedance of the each source was evaluated. Second, the impact force exposure levels and impact sounds level driven by the each source were measured. The results showed that the mechanical impedance and impact force exposure level of the impact ball are the most similar to those of the human impact source among the standard impact sources.

Thin films of polyaniline (PANI) salts were in situ deposited on a Pt plate during either chemical polymerization or electrochemical polymerization. The oxidation states of the salt films were controlled by the applied DC potential. AC impedance of the Pt/PANI electrode were measured in monomer-free 1 N HCl solution in order to investigate the electrodic properties of the films at the following applied DC potentials: 0, 0.45 and 0.75 V vs. SCE. Very small differences in film conductivity according to its oxidation state were observed by analysis of the impedance spectra, the reasons of which are complicated by enriched water content in the film and possible decrease in the film thickness during the measurements. The electrochemical activity of the film/solution interface varied with its oxidation state. Stability of the film in 1 N HCl solution was also evaluated by impedance and cyclic voltammetry measurements.

Unlike normal wheels, the Mecanum wheel enables omni-directional movement regardless of the orientation of a mobile robot. In this paper, a robust trajectory tracking control method is developed based on the dynamic model of the Mecanum wheel mobile robot in order that the mobile robot can move along the given path in the environment with disturbance. The method is designed using the impedance control to make the mobile robot to track the path, and the integral sliding mode control for robustness to disturbance. The good performance of the proposed method is verified using the MATLAB /Simulink simulation and also through the experiment on an actual Mecanum wheel mobile robot. In both the simulation and the experimentation, we make the mobile robot move along a reference trajectory while maintaining the robot's orientation at a constant angle to see the characteristics of the Mecanum wheel.

This paper analyzes the correlations between the impedance matching of the antenna and the radiation characteristics of the mobile handset body. Using two kinds of mobile handset which has retractable and fixed antenna the impedance and radiation pattern is measured under totally 16 conditions. By measured results, it has been identified that the radiation energy into human head can be reduced by attaining the better impedance matching when the radiation pattern out of the mobile handset is like the ideal monopole antenna.
