As the number of IP cores has been increasing in a System-on-Chip (SoC), multiple routers are included in on-chip-networks. Each router has its own arbitration policy and it is difficult to obtain a desired arbitration result by combining multiple routers. Allocating desired bandwidths to the ports across the routers is more difficult. In this paper, a guaranteed bandwidth allocation scheme using an IP-level QoS control is proposed to overcome the limitations of existing local arbitration policies. Each IP can control the priority of a packet depending on the data communication requirement within the allocated bandwidth. The experimental results show that the proposed mechanism guarantees for IPs to utilize the allocated bandwidth in multiple router on-chip-networks. The maximum error rate of bandwidth allocation of the proposed scheme is only 1.9%.

This paper presents a design methodology for wideband single-layered microwave absorbers with arbitrary absorption at the design center frequency using reactive Salisbury screens. The bandwidth of the absorber increases when the flatness of the reflection response at the design center frequency is maximized. Based on this observation, closed-form design formulas for wideband absorbers are derived. As they are scalable to any design frequency, wideband reactive screens can be systematically realized using two-dimensional periodic crossed-dipole structures patterned on a resistive sheet. Based on this method, a single-layered absorber with a 90% bandwidth improved to 124% of the design center frequency is presented. For the purpose of physical demonstration, an absorber with a design center frequency of 10 GHz is designed and fabricated using a silver nanowire resistive film with a surface resistance of 30 Ω/square. The measured absorption shows a good agreement with both the calculation and the electromagnetic simulation.

A T-shaped microstripline-fed printed slot array antenna having wide bandwidth, high gain, and narrow bandwidth is presented in this paper. The proposed antenna is analyzed by using the transmission line model method. We fabricated 4$\times$1 microstrip slot array antenna and measured its return loss and radiation pattern. The maximum bandwidth of this array antenna is from 1.43 ㎓ to 2.60 ㎓, which is 58.1% for the VSWR $\leq$ 2.

Visible light communication based wireless personal area network (WPAN) has recently remained in the center of attention, as it shows a lot of promise to a be a perfect replacement for the contemporary Radio frequency (RF) communication at least in the indoor environment. A commercially deployable VLC based WPAN must support diverse traffic requirement for different kinds of service. In this paper, we have proposed an innovative bandwidth allocation scheme for VLC based WPAN. We wish to allocate bandwidth adaptively for users in a network where bandwidth for each user is allocated scalably. Our aim is to allow maximum number of users in a VLC based WPAN where each user is guaranteed their required QoS. The simulation results justify that the proposed scheme is better than the conventional scheme.

In the TDMA PON system, the DBA is essential for ONUs to send data efficiently to the upstream. In this paper, we implement a DBA processor for the G-PON OLT with downstream and upstream rate, 2.5 and 1.25 Gbps, respectively, The processor collects bandwidth request messages from ONUs at every cycle time and allocates properly bandwidth to each Alloc-ID with considering priority and fairness for traffics. In the proposed DBA algorithm, one cycle time consists of multiple G-PON frames ($m{\times}125{\mu}s$) for high link efficiency. In particular, the link efficiency is higher because the algorithm adopts a method that an additional overhead is eliminated when an allocated bandwidth is laid between two G-PON frames for an ONU. This enables that the processor flexibly allocates the bandwidth from zero to the maximum link capacity for an ONU. The proposed DBA processor is implemented with the FPGA and shows bandwidth allocating processes for ONUs with logic analyzer.

In this paper, we propose the load control procedure for WiBro system in order to keep the data traffic throughput maximum. The transmitter at a mobile terminal can estimate maximum available power for each user and then the maximum number of subchannels can be calculated considering the total available power. The data traffic throughput and the total throughput (the sum of signaling traffic and data traffic throughput) are considered. As the number of bandwidth requests per frame increases, the data traffic throughput can significantly decrease. Therefore, the load control procedure is indispensible to maintain the data throughput at the maximum level. So, we propose the load control procedure to prevent data traffic throughput from decreasing and evaluate the proposed procedure through the computer simulation under the multi-user environment. The maximum throughput can be maintained by applying the proposed procedure.

An impedance bandwidth enhancement method of an aperture coupled microstrip patch antenna (ACMPA) using a shunt stub is investigated. The conventional ACMPA with a H-shaped coupling aperture is designed and the electrical parameters for the equivalent circuit of the designed conventional ACMPA are extracted. A method for the enhancement of the impedance bandwidth of the ACMPA using a tuning stub connected in shunt with the feed line is presented. The -10 dB return loss impedance bandwidth of the ACMPA with a shunt stub is increased up to about 14 %. The maximum impedance bandwidth of the corresponding ACMPA without a shunt stub is 5.4 %. The increase of the impedance bandwidth of the ACMPA with a shunt stub compared to that of the corresponding ACMPA without a shunt stub is about 160 %.

This paper proposes an approximate equation for broad bandwidth conditions in an antenna feeding probe design with a cylindrical magneto material structure (CMMS). The bandwidth calculation has been conducted according to the relation between the distance ($r_m$) between the magneto material and feeding probe, and the magneto material thickness ($t_m$) for a given ${\mu}_r$. The bandwidth of a proposed antenna with CMM feeding structure is improved about 182 %, when ${\mu}_r=20+j0.001$, in comparison with the bandwidth of an antenna without CMMS. The maximum error extent between the bandwidth calculated by the approximation equation and by the numerical calculation of the proposed antenna is about $\pm$3.2 % for ${\mu}_r=10+j0.001$. The approximation equation proposed in this study can solve the conventional problem of the complex process and the long time required for reiterative calculation, and allow simple and precise design with prediction. The accuracy of an approximated equation is compared with the results calculated by a commercial tool and verified by reasonable agreement between them.

This study aimed to present reasonable reception bandwidth application standards for the purpose of suppressing metal objects during MRI examinations. For this purpose, T2 contrast images were acquired using high-speed spin echo technology on a phantom made of screws for spinal surgery, and metal objects were detected. In addition, images were obtained by increasing the reception bandwidth from 100 Hz/PX to 800 Hz/PX by 100 Hz/PX. The metal artifacts were determined as the sum of the areas of the signal attenuation area and the signal accumulation area. In addition, Pearson correlation analysis was performed to analyze the pattern of metal artifacts according to imaging variables. As a result, the signal accumulation area did not change significantly as the reception bandwidth increased (p>0.05), but the signal loss area and the area of metal artifacts decreased as the reception bandwidth increased (p<0.05). Interestingly, the area of metal objects decreased to a maximum in the section where the reception bandwidth was increased from 100 Hz/PX to 200 Hz/PX, consistent with the section where the echo spacing was reduced to a maximum due to the increase in reception bandwidth. In addition, the correlation analysis results also showed that the eco spacing was more related to the signal attenuation area and the area of metal objects than to the reception bandwidth. Therefore, if the reception bandwidth is increased for the purpose of reducing metal objects, it is reasonable to set it based on a value that minimizes the echo spacing in consideration of image quality factors.

In this paper, several parasitic elements are added to the circular microstrip antenna in order to increase its bandwidth. Three kinds of parasitic elements such as cone, circular plate, and ring types are applied and input VSWRs, radiation patterns, and input impedances are measured. The optimal sizes of each parasitic element are obtianed and the variations of the bandwidth according to the height from the patch are also measured. In thid case of the ring type, the optimum bandwidth is obtained at the height of 10mm from the patch to the parasitic element. In the cases of conical and circular plate types, the maximum bandwidth is obtained at the hight of 45mm form the patch to the parasitic elements.
