In this paper, we propose a location based multicast routing protocol, called Geomulticast, in mobile ad-hoc wireless networks. The main features and contributions of the proposed geomulticast are as follows. First, support data transmission to only the specific mobile nodes within a target area. Second, establish stable routing route by using mobility information of nodes. Third, reduce control overhead, power for construction of routing route by using geomulticast guided line information. Fourth, present a theoretical model for establishing stable route. The performance evaluation of the proposed geomulticast is executed by using OPNET simulation and theoretical analysis, and the results of simulation and theoretical analysis have similar patterns. And we can see that data packets are efficiently transmitted to specific user groups within a specific area.

This paper presents a compact, low insertion loss, sharp rejection and wide band microstrip band pass filter that is composed rectangular loop resonator and step-impedance-open-stub(SIOS) for wireless data communication. The SIOS can be reduce length about 30% more than general $0.25{\lambda}$ stub. And the stub can the advantage of tuning impedance magnitude. In order to demonstrate agrement of this paper prove, the optimized wide band pass filters are realized and experimented. A transmission line model used to calculate the frequency response of the new filters shows good agreement with measurements. The filter has 3dB fractional bandwith of 52.5%(3.267GHz), an insertion loss of better than 0.33dB from 4.587GHz to 7.854GHz, and two rejection of greater than 30dB within 221MHz$(4.366GHz{\sim}4.587GHz)$ at low frequency band, 181MHz$(7.854GHz{\sim}8.035GHz)$ at high frequency band. Maximum rejection characteristics of the filter are -54dB at low frequency and -60dB at high frequency.

Ohmic contacts have been fabricated on p-type 4H-SiC using Pt/Ti. Low resistivitf Ohmic contacts of Pt/Ti to p-type 4H-SiC were investigated. Specific contact resistances were measured using the transmission line model method, and the physical properties of the contacts were examined using x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy. Ohmic behavior with linear current-voltage characteristics was observed following anneals at $900^{\circ}C$ for 90sec at a pressure of $3.4{\times}10^{-5}$ Torr. The Pt/Si/Ti films was measured lower value of the specific contact resistance by the annealing process, and the contact resistances were improved more than one order compared to Ti contact the annealed sample. Scanning electron microscopy shows that the Pt layer effectively reduce the oxidation of Ti films. And results are obtained as $4.6{\times}10^{-4}$ ohm/$cm^2$ for a Pt/Ti metal structure after a vacuum annealing at $900^{\circ}C$ for 90sec. Titanium has a relatively high melting point, thus Ti-based metal contacts were attempted in this study.

Damper springs in a drive-line absorb the impulsive torque generated when a lock-up clutch is connected directly, instead of via a fluid coupling. Design optimization and finite element analysis were performed to improve the shock- and vibration-absorption capacity of the lock-up clutch. For this purpose, a multi-body dynamics model was developed by including the main parts of a vehicle, such as an engine with a clutch, a transmission, drive shafts and wheels, and a whole mass of a vehicle. The spring constants were selected so that resonance of a system could be avoided. Damper springs were optimized on the basis of the spring constants, impulsive torques, compressed angles, spring counts, fatigue constraints, etc. Topology optimization was performed for three plates with the damper springs. The compliance was set up as an objective function, and volume fraction was fixed below 0.3. A new shape for the plates was proposed on the basis of the topology result.

This paper proposes a power divider based on meta-material structure with dual-band operation. The meta-material structures of left-hand characteristic are constituted of series capacitors and shunt inductors, but they have parasitic series inductance and shunt capacitance effects. There is represented the composite right/ left-handed transmission line (CRLH-TL) model. When the power divider is implemented by using the CRLH-TL, the power divider can operate dual band. To verify the power divider with dual band, we are implemented to operate dual-band that is 0.88 GHz and 1.67 GHz. The characteristics of divider have the return loss less than each 21.0 dB and 15.8 dB and the insertion loss better than 3.83 dB and 3.64 dB at each frequency. Also, the output phase difference is $3{\sim}6^{\circ}$.

Recently, amorphous oxides such as InGaZnO (IGZO) and InZnO (IZO) as a channel layer of an oxide TFT have been attracted by advantages such as high mobility, good uniformity, and high transparency. In order to apply such an amorphous oxide TFTs to a display, the stability in various environments must be ensured. In the InGaZnO which has been studied in the past, Ga elements act as a suppressor of oxygen vacancy and result in a decreased mobility at the same time. Previous studies have been showed that the InZnO, which does not contain Ga, can achieve high mobility, but has relatively poor stability under various instability environments. In this study, the TFTs using $IZO/Al_2O_3$ double layer structure were studied. The introduction of an $Al_2O_3$ interlayer between source/drain and channel causes superior electrical characteristics and electrical stability as well as reduced contact resistance with optimally perfect ohmic contact. For the IZO and $Al_2O_3$ bilayer structures, the IZO 30nm IZO channels were prepared at $Ar:O_2=30:1$ by sputtering and the $Al_2O_3$ interlayer were depostied with various thickness by ALD at $150^{\circ}C$. The optimal sample exhibits considerably good TFT performance with $V_{th}$ of -3.3V and field effect mobility of $19.25cm^2/Vs$, and reduced $V_{th}$ shift under positive bias stress stability, compared to conventional IZO TFT. The enhanced TFT performances are closely related to the nice ohmic contact properties coming from the defect passivation of the IZO surface inducing charge traps, and we will provide the detail mechanism and model via electrical analysis and transmission line method.

In this paper, an attempt has been made to analyze the theoretically and verify experimentally the effect of curvature on the radiation characteristics of microstrip array antennas mounted conformally on the concave surface and the convex surface of the cylindrical body. The analysis of single element microstrip antenna is made by using the analysis method of Transmission Line Model. The theory of array antennas is established by application of the method of transformed coordinates, in which the translation and the ratation about each single element arrayed two-demensionally on the nonplanar surface are under consideration, and it is investigated by computation of the synthetic electric field strength in the far zone. In addition, various radiation characteristics, such as return loss, resonant frequency, radiation pattern, half-power, beamwidth, gain, are measrued and compared with the theroetical values according to the variation of curvature, by designing and building 4-element array microstrip antenna operating at 10 GHz, and microstrip feed lines. As predicted in theroy, it is verified that radiation pattern of antennas mounted on the concave and the convex surfaces alike broadens as the radius of curvature decreases. And for the curved surfaces, aggrement between computed values of the total synthetic radiation power pattern by the method of transformed coordinates and measured valuse is good. Besides, it is found that resonant frequency, input impedance and gain are hardly affected by the radius of curvature.

This paper proposes a method to detect rail broken through impedance measurement. In general, broken rails are detected in real time using the track circuit, but the proposed method not only detects the broken rails but also estimates positions of broken areas by measuring the rail impedance. To electrically insulate one side of the rail, parallel resonance is made by adding a capacitor; then, the impedance of the other rail is measured. If the measured impedance has an inductive value, there is no broken area of rail. However if the measured impedance has a capacitive value, the rail is broken. The proposed method is modeled using a transmission line; it is shown that the modeling can estimate the position of the broken rail according to the impedance value. The rail impedance is measured by the proposed method for a 60m simple rail model, and it is verified that the presence of a broken rail changes the rail impedance.

This study is concerned with the numerical investigation of dynamic characteristics of 2.5MW-class wind turbine gearbox in which the misalignment improvement of plenary gear shafts by the flexible pins and the dynamic impact response are analyzed by the finite element method. The tooth contact between gears is modelled using the line element having the equivalent tooth stiffness and the contact ratio to accurately and effectively reflect the load transmission in the internal complex gear system. The equivalent tooth stiffness is calculated by utilizing the tooth deformation analysis and the impulse torque is applied to the input shaft for the dynamics response characteristic analysis. Through the numerical experiments, the equivalent tooth stiffness model was validated and the misalignment improvement of planetary gear shafts was confirmed from the comparison with the cases of fixed shafts at one and both ends.
