Twenty healthy subjects were participated in this study for each meridian. Five-phase acupuncture points were used for recording then smoothing and normalizing were performed to analyze data. There was a positive correlation between standard error of biopotentials and acupuncture depth. It means acupuncture points close to the skin provide more reliable results than ones with deeper acupuncture depth when investigating electrophysiological characteristics of meridians.","PeriodicalId":367154,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Workshop Series on Intelligent Radio for Future Personal Terminals","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130477229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to reduce a size/volume of the filter and improve its performances, the proposed filter was newly designed by using J-inverter transformation technology, independent transmission zero technology and independent band-stop resonators. The J-inverter transformation technology was highly effective to minimize electromagnetic parasitic coupling between the large inductors. The newly applied independent band-stop resonator helped to reduce the number of passive elements in the filter circuit. Finally, designed dual-band filter was combined with simple LC diplexer. The measured maximum insertion losses of the fabricated dual-band WLAN filter were better than 2.3 and 1.3 dB in the lower and upper pass-bands, respectively. Return loss was higher than 15 dB.

This type of antenna array is a planar structure and its maximum directional radiation beam pattern presents in azimuth plane with the covering of 360 degree. The operation of antenna array is based on the statuses of ON/OFF stage of PIN diodes in each individual slot antenna element and the combined signals from four ports. Consequently, by proper controlling the stage of PIN diodes, the antenna can exposes its characteristic of switchable and/or reconfigurable beam patterns in φ-plane. The antenna array size is about 56 mm in square with four ports.
