본 논문에서는 다기능 복합 카드용 극초단파(UHF) 대역 소형 태그 안테나를 제안하였다. 현재 일반적으로 HF 대역 태그와 UHF 대역 태그가 장착된 듀얼 카드가 사용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존 듀얼 카드에 지문인식 시스템이 탑재됨으로써 발생하는 공간상 제약 및 주변 도체로 인한 RFID 태그 인식거리 성능 저하를 최소화한 다기능 복합 카드용 극초단파 대역 RFID 소형 태그 안테나를 제안하였다. 제안된 극초단파 대역 RFID 소형 태그 안테나는 HF 태그 및 지문인식 시스템이 탑재된 제한된 공간에 적용 가능한 다기능 복합 카드용이며 테이퍼트, 미앤더 라인 및 루프 구조를 변형시킴으로써 소형화 및 태그 칩 매칭을 가능하게 하였다. 제안된 소형 태그 안테나는 카드 재질 특성 및 주변 회로를 감안하여 설계하였으며 작은 크기($50{\times}15\;mm^2$)로 PET필름에 제작 되었다. RFID 소형 태그 측정 방법은 무반사실에서 EPCglobal Static Test 장비를 이용하여 측정하였으며 기존 사용 중인 듀얼 카드와 차량 내부 및 지갑을 이용해서 다양한 비교 측정을 하였다. 측정 결과 EPCglobal Static Test 결과 인식거리는 3.8 m, 필드테스트 결과 차량 내부에서 최대 인식거리 7.6 m로 양호한 결과를 확인하였으며 제안된 태그 안테나는 지자체에서 주차통제보안시스템에 사용될 예정이다.

A review on the papers published in the Korean Journal of Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Engineering in 2006 has been accomplished. Focus has been put on current status of research in the aspect of heating, cooling, ventilation, sanitation and building environments. The conclusions are as follows. (1) The research trends of fluid engineering have been surveyed as groups of general fluid flow, fluid machinery and piping, etc. New research topics include micro heat exchanger and siphon cooling device using nano-fluid. Traditional CFD and flow visualization methods were still popular and widely used in research and development. Studies about diffusers and compressors were performed in fluid machinery. Characteristics of flow and heat transfer and piping optimization were studied in piping systems. (2) The papers on heat transfer have been categorized into heat transfer characteristics, heat exchangers, heat pipes, and two-phase heat transfer. The topics on heat transfer characteristics in general include thermal transport in a cryo-chamber, a LCD panel, a dryer, and heat generating electronics. Heat exchangers investigated include pin-tube type, plate type, ventilation air-to-air type, and heat transfer enhancing tubes. The research on a reversible loop heat pipe, the influence of NCG charging mass on heat transport capacity, and the chilling start-up characteristics in a heat pipe were reported. In two-phase heat transfer area, the studies on frost growth, ice slurry formation and liquid spray cooling were presented. The studies on the boiling of R-290 and the application of carbon nanotubes to enhance boiling were noticeable in this research area. (3) Many studies on refrigeration and air conditioning systems were presented on the practical issues of the performance and reliability enhancement. The air conditioning system with multi indoor units caught attention in several research works. The issues on the refrigerant charge and the control algorithm were treated. The systems with alternative refrigerants were also studied. Carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons and their mixtures were considered and the heat transfer correlations were proposed. (4) Due to high oil prices, energy consumption have been attentioned in mechanical building systems. Research works have been reviewed in this field by grouping into the research on heat and cold sources, air conditioning and cleaning research, ventilation and fire research including tunnel ventilation, and piping system research. The papers involve the promotion of efficient or effective use of energy, which helps to save energy and results in reduced environmental pollution and operating cost. (5) Studies on indoor air quality took a great portion in the field of building environments. Various other subjects such as indoor thermal comfort were also investigated through computer simulation, case study, and field experiment. Studies on energy include not only optimization study and economic analysis of building equipments but also usability of renewable energy in geothermal and solar systems.
