The calculation of the antenna parameters were based on the image and electromotive force (EMF) methods. The method of moments is used for calculating the input impedance, gain and radiation patterns for two cases. In the first case continuous grounded conducting plane reflectors were used with the method of images. In the second case grided type plane reflectors consisting of parallel wires of suitable radii separation and length are used directly without the method of images. A good agreement between the results is indicated.","PeriodicalId":127585,"journal":{"name":"Thirteenth National Radio Science Conference.

The free carrier concentration in AlGaAs is deduced from the drift/diffusion equation assuming zero current density at the heterointerface. The obtained results have been compared with other models.

Also, another switching scheme between dynamic channels is proposed to enhance the performance. The forward-looking strategy is used in order to obtain a better performance at high traffic loads. Computer simulation experiments on a 49 hexagonal cellular system show the superiority of the modified hybrid scheme as compared to other hybrid channel assignment schemes reported elsewhere.","PeriodicalId":127585,"journal":{"name":"Thirteenth National Radio Science Conference.

A strip transformation technique is used to transform the thin superconducting film into infinitely thin strip of infinite conductivity. In this technique the superconducting strip is treated as an impedance sheet which introduces new boundary conditions at the surface of the strip. Enforcing these new boundary conditions in the Fourier domain introduces some modification to the diagonal elements of the Green's impedance matrix, in the spectral domain, of the microstrip structure. An efficient computer program was developed to search for the complex roots of eigenvalue equation using Muller's method. The effective dielectric constant for several HTS microstrip transmission lines were computed using our program. The comparison between these results and published data indicated the validity of our program in estimating the dispersion characteristics of superconducting microstrip lines having high film-to-substrate thickness ratio.","PeriodicalId":127585,"journal":{"name":"Thirteenth National Radio Science Conference.
