Transverse A-O waveguide device using surface acoustic wave (SAW) is expected to overcome the slow responses of collinear devices and accomplish Gigabit class high speed switching. When SAW is propagating in a direction transverse to the optical signal propagation direction in a slab optical waveguide, due to the A-O effect, the refractive index (permittivity) of waveguide will be modulated. Accordingly, optical signal is derived with mode conversion and change in propagation constant. These effects can be used to construct optical devices for high speed modulation and switching applications. In this paper, we have presented the optical propagation characteristics of optical fundamental mode launched in to A-O waveguide, investigated using numerical computer simulation of Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) analysis. We have investigated the optical mode conversion and phase modulation using FDTD computer simulations.","PeriodicalId":199234,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE International Conference on Computational Electromagnetics (ICCEM)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115542328","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}

Almost students who choose machine or electric course like to make miniature car or train that can run by WPT or to light LED without battery. They design them using 3D-CAD and make it using milling machine for PCB, 3 D-printer and laser beam machine. Although we cannot see electromagnetic wave, LED lights by WPT. Therefor we can expect to use WPT for electromagnetic wave education to understand Ampere's circuital law or Lenz's law.

The aim of the iterative optimization is to achieve a radiation pattern with a side lobe level (SLL) less than or equal to −20dB. In the optimization, the proposed scheme iteratively optimizes the array range (spacing) and the number of array elements, whereby the array element with the lowest absolute complex weight coefficient is first removed and then the second lowest and so on. The removal (the element reduction) is terminated once the SLL is greater than −20dB and the elemental increment mechanism is triggered. The results indicate that the proposed iterative GA optimization scheme is applicable to the non-uniform linear array antenna and also is capable of synthesizing the radiation pattern with SLL less than or equal to −20dB.","PeriodicalId":199234,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE International Conference on Computational Electromagnetics (ICCEM)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125005010","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}
