The effect of MgO content on microwave attenuation performance was studied with network analyzer. The result shows that the resonant frequencies become lower while increasing the content of MgO. The characteristics of microwave attenuation spectrum of the composites were analyzed by resonant-cavity theory and the result indicates that the resonant frequencies of the composites depend on their relative permittivities which can be measured by reflection-transition method. The permittivities measured agree well with the relative values calculated by resonant-cavity theory. The mechanisms of microwave attenuation were discussed.","PeriodicalId":315133,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Conference on Microwave and Millimeter Wave Technology","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130243243","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}

A wide bandwidth from 40 to 60 GHz is achieved by asymmetric bilateral finline and a pair of anti-parallel diodes. The local oscillator signal passes through a novel microstrip-to-finline transition to the bilateral finline, which is helpful to impedance match. The transition structure enables the mixer to conveniently integrate with monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMIC). The compact subharmonic mixer is fabricated on 0.254 mm thick Rogers Duroid 5880 substrate, which is suspended in the E-plane of a standard rectangular waveguide WR-19. Measurement result shows its conversion loss is less than 15 dB from 40 to 60 GHz.

However, the use of many different mobility models without a unified quantitative \"measure\" of the mobility has made it very difficult to compare the results of independent performance studies of routing protocols. In this paper, a mobility measure for MANETs is proposed that is flexible and consistent. One can customize the definition of mobility using a remoteness function. It has a linear relationship with the rate at which links are established or broken for a wide range of network scenarios. This consistency is the strength of the proposed mobility measure because the mobility measure reliably represents the link change rate regardless of network scenarios.","PeriodicalId":315133,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Conference on Microwave and Millimeter Wave Technology","volume":"2 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126103943","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}
