Concerning electromagnetics, Holland model already provides precise results for such computations. However this method requires to calculate numerically the value of some unknown parameter. It appears that the correct value for this parameter substantially depends on the surrounding part of the mesh. For a model case of acoustic diffraction we propose an alternative method that does not require evaluating any parameter. We prove consistency of such a method and show how it is related to the Holland method. This leads to a theoretical value of the Holland parameter.","PeriodicalId":273595,"journal":{"name":"2007 International Conference on Electromagnetics in Advanced Applications","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124025615","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}

The antenna uses two orthogonal-shaped slot antennas printed on similar groundless substrates stacked at the top of each other. Each antenna is known to be suitable for dual-band operation, so the stacked configuration gives rise to the satisfactory operation of the antenna in four distinct frequency bands. The specifications of the antenna's operating frequency bands, i.e. the center frequencies and their respected band widths have been selected such that most high speed wireless LAN systems especially those with WiMAX protocol can be supported by the antenna. Ansof's HFSS software was employed for designing the antenna.

We model the infrastructures as sets of dynamical variables and consider equilibrium and initial setbacks from equilibrium. The concept of automated control and non-linear behavior resulting from strong Infrastructure degradation from an event, such as a coronal mass ejection from the sun or a high altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP) attack is then introduced. The general mathematical properties of the automated control functions that improve the probability of recovery are identified using a phase plane analysis.","PeriodicalId":273595,"journal":{"name":"2007 International Conference on Electromagnetics in Advanced Applications","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127989259","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}
