Connectors transmit electric signals to different parts in compact mobile display products. As products that apply this have become lightweight and smaller in size, there are growing demands for smaller and more integrated connectors, which are internal parts of the products. As a measure to address these demands, there is the planar array connector that minimizes the part by arranging the single-direction BTB connectors to two directions. As connectors become smaller in size and more highly integrated, maintaining intensity to prevent defects during impact and maintaining adhesive force to smoothly transmit electric signals are growing in importance. Thus, in order to identify the impact of concave shaping on improving adhesive power in connector terminal pins as a method to increase the connecting power of planar array connector terminal pins, this study predicted and examined the concave shaping method, number of concave shapes, and the adhesive power according to the size of the concave shape through CAE. For concave shaping, the model that added concave shaping towards the lower part of the connector terminal pin and added spokes for the area pressed down by the concave shaping was 0.74 N, showing increased adhesive force compared to existing models. Furthermore, when applying two concave shaping, rather than just one, there was a tendency for adhesive force to increase. In the case of adhesive power trends according to the size of the concave shaping, adhesive power increased and the width of the concave shape decreased, and the biggest adhesive force trends were shown when the concave shaping depth was 0.01mm.

Because the installation problem of parabola antenna that is tilted to 45 degree when this antenna is installed at the area of middle latitude, the study on planar antenna in place of parabola antenna is made rapid progess. Especially, The development of the planar antenna for VSAT is needed depending on the increased Ka-band satellite communications. In this paper, in order to meet with these performances, an array antenna consisting of the vertical polarized waveguide longitudinal slots based on the leaky-wave mode of traveling wave antenna is proposed. Especially, for the lower sidelobe level, the design method of the radiation power distribution control using the different slot widths is proposed. An array antenna consisting of 32 leakywave waveguide antennas is showing 35.16 dBi of gain, 2.5 degree of beamwidth at azimuth, below than -30 dB of sidelobe level, 45.8 degree of beam tilt angle in center frequency 30.2 GHz.

The signal intelligence (SIGINT) technology is actively used for collecting various data, in a number of fields, including a military industry. In order to collect the signal information and data and to transmit/receive the collected data efficiently, the accurate angle-of-arrival (AOA) information is required and communication disturbance from the interference or jamming signal should be minimized. In this paper, we present the structure of an adaptive beam-forming satellite system based on the planar array antenna, for collecting and transmitting/receiving the signal information and data efficiently. The presented adaptive beam-forming system consists of an antenna in the form of a planar array, an AOA estimator based on the Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) algorithm, an adaptive Minimum Variance Distortionless Response (MVDR) interference canceler, a signal processing and D/B unit, and a transmission beamformer based on Minimum mean Square Error (MMSE). In addition, through the computer simulation, we evaluate and analyze the performance of the proposed system.

In this study, a new design method is developed to optimize the structure of an underwater sparse array sensor. The purpose of this research is to design the structure of a sparse array that has the performance equivalent to a fully sampled array. The directional factor of a sparse planar array is derived as a function of the structural parameters of the array. With the derived equation, the structure of the sparse array sensor is designed to have the performance equivalent to that of the fully array sensor through structural optimization of the number and location of transmitting and receiving elements in the array. The designed sparse array sensor shows beam patterns very close to those of the fully array sensor in terms of PSLL (Peak Side Lobe Level) and MLBW (Main Lobe Beam Width), which confirms the effectiveness of the present optimal design method. Further, the validity of the analytic beam patterns is verified by comparing them with those from the FEA (Finite Element Analysis) of the optimized sparse array structure.

In this paper, an analytical technique is proposed for the design of interleaved thinned planar array with well-behaved and predictable sidelobes. The interleaved arrays are composed of thinned planar subarrays based on cyclic difference sets(DSs). Becauce sidelobes of thinned planar subarrays based on DS are predictable by DS parameters, the subarrays exhibit very similar sidelobe levels by utilizing DS and complementary DS with similar autocorrelations each other. The combinatorial method also allows the design of interleaved placements with simultaneously optimum peak sidelobe levels(PSLs) of subarrays using cyclic shift-a property of DSs. The optimized PSLs of the interleaved array are -12.47 dB and -10.34 dB.

This paper presents a wideband technique of impedance and axial-ratio bandwidth which uses the stacked planar array structure through optimum design of sub-polarization generating sections and parasitic patch. So, the effect of the dual-resonance characteristic can contribute to the bandwidth expansion of single fed planar array antenna using circular polarization which doesn\`t hire previous bandwidth expansion technique. The antenna can be used as a dual-band antenna by adjusting the resonance frequencies as well, and then the antenna is designed and fabricated in the frequency band of domestic satellite-TV service. This antenna has the performance of 9.7 % impedance bandwidth and 24 dBi of antenna gain. And it has also 2.8 % and 1.4 % of 3 dB Axial-ratio bandwidth at 11.4 GHz and 11.8 GHz respectively.

In this paper, a two-dimensional slotline coupling structure is proposed for the planar active phased array antenna system with scanning the beam by coupled oscillators without phase shifters. The operating characteristics are analyzed and experimentally demonstrated. The proposed two-dimensional slotline coupling structure consists of $|{=}|$-type slotline in the ground plane for the coupling of E-plane and H-plane. From the simulation results of coupling strength with the variation of width, length and the number of slotlines, the optimal coupling structure is proposed and applied to $2{\times}5$ elements of planear phased array antenna. The experimental results show that the beamwidth of E-plane and H-pland are $42^{\circ}$ and $15^{\circ}$, respectivly, and the scanning range is from $-20^{\circ}$ to $15^{\circ}$ from the broadside. Therefore, it is shown the two-dimensional slotline coupling structure for oscillator-type active phased array antenna can be applied to the planar phased array antenna system.
