It is suitable for phased array applications. The characteristics of the proposed phase shifter designed for /spl Phi/=90/spl deg/, 180/spl deg/ were confirmed by the method of moments.","PeriodicalId":324296,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium.

The technique is based on a generalization of the well established Fourier transform method used for reconstructing permittivity profiles in planar stratified media in conjunction with a previously proposed renormalization technique to obtain a unique solution of the involved nonlinear problem. The unknown permittivity profile is reconstructed in terms of a spherical Fourier-Bessel transform of the measured reflection coefficient data in conjunction with a numerical transform. A number of reconstruction examples has been considered and an excellent agreement between original and reconstructed profiles has been achieved even for very high values of permittivity.","PeriodicalId":324296,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium.

Gwarek","doi":"10.1109/APS.2000.873750","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/APS.2000.873750","url":null,"abstract":"Axisymmetrical structures play an important role in high frequency research and engineering. Examples of application include horn and rod antennas, circular waveguide discontinuities, resonators, and particle accelerators. Two FDTD formulations for axisymmetrical problems have been proposed by Gwarek, Morawski and Mroczkowski (1993) and by Jurgens and Saewert (1995). Both operate on a 2D mesh, and account analytically for azimuthal sin(m/spl phi/)/cos(m/spl phi/) field dependence. The two approaches lead to different field update equations and in practice-to somewhat different results. Both algorithms require special treatment of on-axis components, which may cause instabilities or, as we show in this paper, ambiguous solutions. We propose an FDTD formulation for axisymmetrical problems, based on a new mesh construction scheme and a new set of system variables, which: eliminates the need for special on-axis equations; remains stable, and consistent for different axis locations on the mesh; and requires less computer operations per time step than the scheme of Jurgens. We also show that the differences between the two methods are due to different assumptions regarding local field behaviour in cylindrical coordinates, and that the choice of a better approximation is determined by circuit technology.","PeriodicalId":324296,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium.

Therefore, the required properties of the transmitting station will be broad bandwidth and high gain. The authors have previously (see IEEE AP-S Int. Symposium, p.1570-3, July 1999) investigated the 2-element modified batwing antenna with the reflector (2MBWAR) for UHF used in digital terrestrial broadcasting. It was calculated with the balanced feed shape. As a result, the broadband input impedance of 100 /spl Omega/ was obtained. However, in practical use, this antenna requires the balun and the impedance transformer as another circuit. So it has the complex feed system and high cost. In this paper, we propose the unbalance fed modified batwing antenna (UFMBA) which does not use a balun and an impedance matching circuit. The same broad bandwidth and high gain compared with the previous feed shape are obtained. Next, the parallel coupling UFMBA to obtain high gain is investigated. The gain of about 14 dBi is obtained for coupling four elements.","PeriodicalId":324296,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium.

The field simulator, i.e. a portable handset evaluation system reproducing the artificial fading environment inside the building solves these problems. This paper presents a prototype field simulator applied to the connection rate test in a weak electric field environment, and to diversity characteristic evaluation in development of an antenna.","PeriodicalId":324296,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium.

When this technique is implemented by linking multimode and multiport matrices of the different regions in which the circuit is divided, these matrices must be obtained for a great number of frequencies if a broad band analysis is required. In this paper, it is the SFELP method (segmentation/finite elements/Lanczos-Pade) is introduced. This method applies the symmetric Pade via Lanczos algorithm (SyMPVL) to a 3D-finite elements/segmentation method (3D-FE/SM) for obtaining a reduced order model of the transfer function of each region in which a 3D analysis is used. The result for each region is the multimode multiport generalized admittance matrix (GAM) on a wide band of frequencies from which the generalized scattering matrix (GSM) is computed. Then, the global response of the circuit can be immediately obtained by connecting the partial GSMs.","PeriodicalId":324296,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium.

In this paper we propose a new approach to solving simultaneous image restoration problems incorporating fusion of all RSI systems by integrating these problems into one augmented inverse problem by imposing the minimum entropy (ME) image model as prior knowledge for restoration (Falkovich et al. 1989). We investigate the fine structure of a Hopfield neural network and propose a sensor fusion method that can be implemented via modification of such a network into the maximum entropy neural network (MENN) using minimum entropy regularization. It is shown that applying the proposed method, the sensor and/or method fusion tasks can be solved without principal complication of the resultant structure of the MENN independent of the number of sensor platforms or methods to be fused. The overall MENN algorithm is presented. The results are illustrated by simulation samples and compared with other high resolution image restoration techniques.","PeriodicalId":324296,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium.
