The proposed filters have low insertion loss and are compact in size due to the slow-wave effect. They also have sharp transition regions due to the presence of two- transmission zeros on both sides of their passband. The measured center frequency, bandwidth and insertion loss are 3.4 GHz, 40%, and 0.5 dB respectively. The simulated and measured results show good agreement and validate the proposed approach.","PeriodicalId":306289,"journal":{"name":"2008 14th Conference on Microwave Techniques","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130783993","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 correlation is in relation with the volume of atmospheric turbulences, which can be evaluated by structure parameter refractive index.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze such a cloak and to characterize the achieved \"invisibility\" in mathematical terms by calculating the scattered field and equivalent blockage width - the structure width that is actually \"perceived\" by EM waves. For that purpose we have developed the GIDMULT algorithm for analyzing uniaxial multilayer structures of planar, circular-cylindrical and spherical shape. The results show that the analyzed metamaterial realization reduces the scattered field and is suitable only for excitation by a TM-polarized wave. Furthermore, due to the dispersion it works only in a narrow frequency band. It seems that analyzed structure is inferior to already known realizations of invisibility, e.g. by hard surfaces that can work for arbitrary polarization within larger frequency bandwidth, although suitable for only one direction of incoming wave.","PeriodicalId":306289,"journal":{"name":"2008 14th Conference on Microwave Techniques","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123910717","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}
