  • An adaptive beam forming system using a phased array antenna improves communication quality by beam forming adaptively to a communication environment having an interference signal. For adaptive beam forming, a good combination of the phases of the excited signals to each radiating element of the phased array antenna should be calculated. In this paper, improved particle swarm optimization algorithm that adds a re-spreading procedure according to particle density was proposed to increase the probability of good phase shift combination output.

  • In this paper, the adaptive particle swarm optimization (APSO) algorithm is employed to design a gain-enhanced antenna with a reflector for energy harvesting. We placed the reflector below the main radiating element. Its back-radiated field is reflected and added to the forward radiated field, which could increase the antenna gain. We adopt the adaptive particle swarm optimization (APSO) algorithm, which improves the speed of convergence with a high frequency solver. The result shows that performance of the optimized design successfully satisfied the design goal of the frequency band, gain and axial ratio.

  • The resistive shunting for the fine control of a Direct Energy Transfer(DET) systems is fully developed, but the non-resistive shunting using variable size solar array segments is in progress. This paper presents the spacecraft power control through switching of solar array segments, which uses a fully regulated DET power regulation. This method eliminates a dissipative element and removes the associated design limitations which arise from the dissipative elements for radiating cooling in deep space. The switching shunt regulator comprises the switched Solar Array Shunt(SAS) modules that regulate the solar array power. These SAS modules connect/disconnect the solar array segments to/from the bus according to the loading in the main bus without significant variations in the dissipation level. In this paper, twelve segments are used in the shunting. In order to verify the basis of analysis, the computational result of an analytic loop gain is performed.

  • Solid-state devices can be directly integrated with a planar antenna to form active antenna elements. In this paper, the voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) is designed and fabricated at 2.4 to 2.5 GHz using a microstrip patch antenna. A varactor diode is used as avariable reactance. The predicted frequency tuning range of the VCO is 2.448 to 2.498 GHz in the design procedure and the fabricated VCO has 2.446 to 2.498 GHz frequency tuning range when the varactor tuning voltage is varied from 0 to 11V. Transmitted power output of the patch antenna which serves both as a rsonator and a radiating element for VCO is about 18 mW over this tuning range.

  • This letter presents a novel compact circularly polarized patch antenna for Global Positioning System/Global Navigation Satellite System (GPS/GLONASS) applications. The proposed antenna is composed of a simple square radiating patch fed by a capacitive dual-feeder to increase the impedance bandwidth and a lumped element hybrid coupler to achieve the broadband characteristic of the axial ratio (AR). The realized antenna dimensions are $28mm{\times}28mm{\times}4mm$, which is the most compact size among the dual-band GPS/GLONASS antennas reported to date. The measured results demonstrate that the proposed antenna has a gain of 2.5 dBi to 4.2 dBi and an AR of 0.41 dB to 1.51 dB over the GPS/GLONASS L1 band (1.575 GHz to 1.61 GHz).

  • In this paper, a microstrip $18\times2$ dual beam array antenna is designed at 10 GHz. The radiating element is an aperture-coupled patch, and it is analyzed by the transmission line model. The feed is a tapered parallel-series type to reduce the side lobe level. To obtain dual beam at $\pm45^{\circ}$, The difference in phase excitation between the elements is $180^{\circ}$. In conclusion, the side lobe level is 25 dB, and the beam width $8^{\circ}$with two main lobes at $\pm44.5^{\circ}$.

  • In this paper, an arbitrary Iinear antenna is divided into many small sections and numeral analysis by moment method is carried out. So, the equation which is closed to the actual current distribution and solved easily compared with the induced-emf method or retarded potencial method is derived. The current distribution and radiating pattern of the three element Yagi antenna which applied the result is well in accord with the theoritical values.

  • This letter presents the design of a novel multiband USB dongle antenna with a compact ground plane. The radiating patch is composed of a modified meander-line monopole and a shorted loop to generate a dual-broadband resonance. The proposed antenna supports WiBro, Bluetooth, WLAN, WiMAX, and S-DMB services. The total dimensions of the fabricated antenna are 10 mm ${\times}$ 45 mm ${\times}$ 1 mm, the most compact size among multiband USB dongle antennas reported to date. The measured 10 dB reflection loss bandwidths are 20.8% (2.24 GHz to 2.76 GHz) and 20.2% (4.86 GHz to 5.95 GHz). The measured peak gain is 2.97 dBi, and efficiency is higher than 58%. In addition, the radiation pattern approximates an omnidirectional pattern.

  • In this paper, we discuss on the optimal design scheme of the bilayer OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diodes) with micro-cavity structure. We carried out the optical simulation on the OLED device and calculated optimal scale of devices with taking the micro-cavity effect into account. Our emission model is based upon an ensemble of radiating dipole antennas. Consequently, we applied Maxwell's equation to this sequence, followed by the analysis on the electrical behaviors of OLED device using Poisson's equation. It contains carrier injection and transportation mechanism. In this process, we found out the thickness of each layer can affect the recombination rate at the emission layer. Therefore, we optimized the thickness of each layer to improve the efficiency of the device.

  • An alternative formulation of the Helmholtz integral equation is derived to express the pressure field explicitly in terms of the velocity vector of a radiating surface. This formulation, derived for arbitrary sources, is similar in form to the Rayleigh's formula for planar sources. Because the pressure field is expressed explicitly as a surface integral of the particle velocity, which can be implemented numerically using standard Gaussian quadratures, there is no need to use Boundary element method to solve a set of simultaneous equations for the surface pressure at the discretized nodes. Furthermore the non-uniqueness problem inherent in methods based on Helmholtz integral equation is avoided. Validation of this formulation is demonstrated for some simple geometries.
