In this paper, we carried out performance analysis of mobile station with built-in antenna for PCS(Personal Communication System) band. The radiation patterns for antenna and mobile phone were simulated by using 3D simulation program, HFSS(High Frequency Structure Simulator) and SEMCAD(Simulation Platform for Electromagnetic Compatibility Antenna Design Dosimetry). We observed radiation pattern variation according to installation of LED(Light Emitting Diode) circuit and ground pattern. The radiation pattern of prototype mobile phone was measured, and the radio sensitivity was measured by using Agilent E5515C and chamber. The measured maximum antenna gain at 1.87GHz was 0.21dBi. The measured radio sensitivity of prototype mobile phone shows proper performances comparable to other models with external antennas.

Background: Mobile phone has become a very popular device used in everyday our lives. However, the possible hazard to human body such as brain tumor has been proposed intermittently. This unwanted possibility was calmed down due to the absence of definite evidence of hazard. This study was performed to see the effect of mobile phone use on the brain temperature. Methods: In 20 volunteers, we performed 4 steps of temperature measuring procedure. Four steps are pre-use (S1, basal state), wire-phone (S2, conventional telephone), PCS phone (S3, using 1,750~1,900 MHz), cellular phone (S4, using 820 MHz) states. Brain temperatures were measured by radiothermometer at 10 sites (5 sites in each hemisphere) of the brain after 5minutes of telecommunication through the phones. The final data were compared using paired t-test. Results: In PCS phone user group (Average; $35.73708^{\circ}C$), brain temperature decreased (with statistical significance, p<0.05), compared to those of non-user group (Average; $35.9527^{\circ}C$) or conventional wire phone user group. In cellular phone user group (Average; $35.82155^{\circ}C$), brain temperature decreased slightly (without statistical significance, p>0.05) compared to those of non-user group (Average; $35.9527^{\circ}C$) or conventional wire phone user group (Average; $35.922^{\circ}C$). The temperature change was not limited to the mobile phone applied side but on both hemisphere of the brain. Conclusion: In conclusion, mobile phone (especially PCS phone) decreased brain temperature in both hemispheres without side-to-side temperature difference. In addition, this study suggests possibility of radiothermometer application to the study of electromagnetic wave effect and protection method research in the future.

In this paper, it is analyzed lumped element isolators analytically by the analysis program using scattering matrixes including ferrite saturation magnetization, external direct current magnetic field and strip line length and width, designed and experimented the small isolator of mobile phone. The simulation results show that the characteristics of the isolator are affected by external R, C, length and width of strip line and ferrite width and saturation magnetization sensitivity. We proposed the isolator specification applied cellular and PCS mobile phones, experimented the isolator for cellular mobile phones. From the experimented result, isolation and return loss are measured below 20 dB, insertion loss is below 0.7 dB, bandwidth is about 44 MHz at center frequency 836.5 KHz. The implemented isolator has better performances than the conventional one.

The increase in the number of PCS base station and repeater has increased the level of interference between PCS carriers. In this paper, interference of singular PCS repeater out-of-band noise power on mobile phone is analysed and compared with that of unified PCS repeater for multiple PCS carriers. It is shown that unified PCS repeater provide about 2∼3dB signal gain in comparison with conventional PCS repeater. As a result, the interference of out-of-band noise power on mobile phone is reduced. It is expected that PCS carriers are able to build an environmentally-friendly communications infrastructure and reduce the cost by using unified PCS revealer and apply it for the deployment of IMT-2000 network.

In this paper, performance analysis of mobile phone with internal antenna for PCS band was carried out. The radiation patterns for antenna and mobile phone with internal antenna were simulated by using 3D simulation program, HFSS and SEMCAD. Radiation pattern variation was observed according to installation of LED circuit and ground pattern and by using simulation radiation pattern was improved. And radiation patterns of mobile phones with internal and external antennas were measured by using for field measurement system and chamber. Measured radiation pattern for mobile phone with internal antenna shows good agreement with simulation result. And the radio sensitivities of mobile phones with internal and external antennas were measured by using Agilent E5515C and chamber and compared. The measured radio sensitivity of mobile phone with internal antenna shows proper performances comparable to other model with external antenna. Measured result shows that the difference on averaged co-polar radio sensitivity is 0.12 ㏈.

A broadband antenna using a main and a sub antenna for the mobile communication terminal such as mobile phone and ITS terminal is designed. Two antennas are based on the hybrid antenna that is operating both a monopole and a IFA(Inverted F Antenna). It's applied the transmission line to connect both antennas. Sub antenna located in small space of the terminal allows space usability for the terminal design. Antenna for the hexa-frequency band of LTE700, CDMA, GSM, DCS, PCS and WCDMA is designed and implemented on the bare PC board that is same size of the mobile phone. This antenna was measured 3 : 1 VSWR over the whole design band. And average gains and efficiencies were-3.78 ~ -2.62dBi and 41.9 ~ 54.73% for LTE700/CDMA/GSM frequency band, -3.75 ~ -1.84dBi and 42.19 ~ 65.46% for DCS/PCS/WCDMA frequency band.

In this paper, we propose antenna topology and ground plane shape to improve the performance of PIFA (Planar Inverted F Antenna) which is built-in mobile phone. First, we designed the PIFA antenna consists of multiple radiators to provide multi-current paths. Then we designed U-shaped ground plane on the PCB under the antenna. The proposed antenna structure shows TRP/TIS improvement of 2.0 dB/3.7 dB for GSM and 2.2 dB/ 2.0 dB for DCS and 0.8 dB/1.5 dB for PCS and 1.3 dB/0.7 dB for WCDMA at the free space.

This study aims to compare information seeking behavior of 1300K users on PC and mobile phone. Transaction logs of 1300K, a major Korean shopping search engine, were analyzed. These transaction logs were collected over 1 month period, from April 1 to April 31, 2016. The results of this study show that there are a little more mobile sessions than PC sessions. Users conducted slightly more browsing on PCs than mobile phones, whereas users submitted queries more than two times on mobile phones than on PCs. Users clicked more search results on PCs than mobile phones, whereas users made important decision makings such as product purchases more on mobile phones than PCs. Top queries and categories were similar between PCs and mobile phones. Queries and categories on mobile phones were more focused than queries on PCs. Overall, mobile search behavior is more simple, passive, and focused than PC search behavior. The results of this study can be implemented to the effective improvement and development of search services for different devices.
