The algorithm is based on a modified impedance boundary method of moments, and is used to calculate the dispersion and the field distribution of multimode planar graded-index optical waveguides. The technique is based on Galerkin's procedure and the exact boundary conditions at the interfaces between the graded index guiding region and step index cover and substrate regions. Legendre polynomials are used as basis functions. The efficiency of the algorithm is tested with waveguides having various index profiles such as step, linear, parabolic, exponential, Gaussian, and complementary error functions. The convergence behaviour of the technique is also examined. With this algorithm a minimum number of basis functions is used to provide accurate results. The obtained results show good agreement with other data available in the literature. Moreover, the algorithm can be easily developed to study the propagation and coupling characteristics of planar graded-index optical waveguides directional couplers.","PeriodicalId":211510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Seventeenth National Radio Science Conference. 17th NRSC'2000 (IEEE Cat.

Detailed investigations are presented through the results obtained using numerical simulation (the method of moment technique). The wire-loaded monopole antenna has proved many attractive features so that it is recommended to be used in hand held units. The design of the antenna considers simplicity, compact size (65% of monopole height), and low cost. It has an omnidirectional radiation pattern in the horizontal plane with a very high gain (about 6-7 times of monopole antenna). The input impedance matches the feeding line ensuring perfect transmission of energy between the antenna and coaxial cable.","PeriodicalId":211510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Seventeenth National Radio Science Conference. 17th NRSC'2000 (IEEE Cat.

{"title":"Adaptive space-time processing for interference suppression in phased array radar systems. II. Tracking radar","authors":"H. Ghouz, F. Elghany, M.M. Qutb","doi":"10.1109/NRSC.2000.838846","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/NRSC.2000.838846","url":null,"abstract":"For pt.I see ibid., p.B8/1-B8/8 (2000). In phased array radar systems, a tracking process is performed using an electronic scan of a predetermined sector to provide a continuous information about the detected targets. In practice, the presence of interference (noise, clutter, and jamming signals) either prevent or deceive the tracking circuit to follow the real targets, and consequently, the tracking process is terminated. This paper presents an adaptive technique of filtering to suppress the interference in phased array tracking radar systems. The aim is to provide a key feature for discrimination between the desired and the interference signals. Unlike the time processing techniques, the present filtering process is based upon the target Doppler shift as well as the interference spatial distribution to suppress adaptively the undesired signals. This technique of filtering is referred to as adaptive coherent space-time (ACST) filter. The objectives are to investigate and evaluate in detail the performance of the adaptive filter under different interference environments. This includes total intercepted power, type and spatial distribution of the interference. The spatial covariance matrix of the interference is estimated using the direct matrix inversion (DMI) algorithm. Then the optimum Wiener solution for the adaptive filter is obtained. The results of our simulation show that an appreciable improvement in the signal to interference plus noise ratio at the filter's output \"SINR/sub o/\" is obtained. Also, the filter's performance is very sensitive to the interference type that has a direction either coincident with or close to the desired signal direction. In this case, a trade-off between the filter's complexity and the minimum SINR/sub o/ required for a continuous target tracking should be considered. In conclusion, the presented filter is an attractive and robust solution for solving the tracking problem of low target RCS immersed in interference (e.g., stealth aircraft).","PeriodicalId":211510,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Seventeenth National Radio Science Conference. 17th NRSC'2000 (IEEE Cat.
