Project OverviewProject Overview
• As tvs are finished, the final line is screen tests• Dust flecks• Dead pixels
• Toshiba wants to make test line more efficient
• Previously testing line invovled an individual behind each station hooking/unhooking coax cable

Current SituationCurrent Situation
• To bring up efficieny, a wireless system was developed• Magnet wire wrapped around plastic• Magnet wire in loop
• Magnet wire is copper that is coated with a thin coat of insulation• Prevents shorting• Better electromagnetic field

Thought ProcessThought Process
• We began to research and eventually construct some antennas
• Simulated antennas• EZ-NEC
• Tested several antennas• Built replica from coax• Toshiba's magnet (transformer) wire
antenna• Long VHF/UHF antenna from copper

Change In DirectionChange In Direction
• Problems with antenna• Distance shorter than quarter wavelength• Low frequency antennas got huge• No single 750MHz bandwidth antenna
• Most of previous research not needed• RF TRANSFORMERS!
• Prof. Cook & Doc. Watai• Transformer MODEL
