Abstract
This session discusses metamaterials and periodic structures. Several types of circularly polarized antennas based on CRLH metamaterials are proposed. The use of magnetostatic volume waves in anisotropic metamaterials is examined for applications to wireless power transfer. Phase constant nonreciprocity in the microstrip-line-based CRLH metamaterials is numeically enhanced for controlling the gain and beam forming of antennas. Conformal surface plasmonic structures are implemented into planar frequency splitters and couplers. Frequency selective structures using vertically stacked parallel strip lines are proposed for broadening the band stop characteristics.

Abstract
This session focuses on the recent progress in high speed digital circuits and system integrity.
The first paper proposes a passive equalizer for high-speed data transmission. The second paper discusses design of low-power
high-speed divide-by-2/3 prescalers. The third paper investigates polarization angle diversity for reliable communication in
a non line-of-sight situation and quick decodable block code to eliminate phase locked loops and matched filters. The fourth
paper presents a UWB pulse generator using a 130nm CMOS process.
