Parasitic subarrays are coupled to radiating edges, nonradiating edges or all four edges of the patch. These subarrays create new resonance frequencies which interfere with the main resonance frequency and improve the bandwidth. Gupta et al. [1] used segmentation method to optimize the gap dimensions and parasitic patch dimensions to obtain bandwidth as large as 10%. In this paper we set gap coupling and parasitic dimensions fixed and use genetic algorithm combined with FDD method for simulation and optimization of the problem. Our goal is to increase return loss bandwidth. Genetic Algorithm (GA) is performed on the parasitic subarrays with no change on the main patch. At each iteration of GA we remove some defined cells form the parasitic patches and simulate the structure to monitor bandwidth width enhancement, Such iteration is performed several times to obtain good bandwidth. Main patch is designed at 9 GHz, and parasitic patches have the same dimension as the main patch. Primary simulations have shown bandwidth improvement more than 10%.","PeriodicalId":360668,"journal":{"name":"11th International Symposium on Antenna Technology and Applied Electromagnetics [ANTEM 2005]","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125580822","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}

U-251 MG cell line was sham-exposed or exposed to low power density millimeter radiation for different duration, from 1h to 33h. Using the transfection technique, we analyzed the gene expression for reporter genes previously shown highly sensitive to many environmental insults. We have tested the influence of 60GHz radiations on 3 different gene expression systems, overlaying the main cellular response pathways to physical and chemical stresses. No statistically significant difference was detected in transcriptional activity of reporter genes after radiation exposure. These results suggest that radiation in the frequency range around 60GHz is not a stressor strong enough to modify the stress-sensitive gene expression.","PeriodicalId":360668,"journal":{"name":"11th International Symposium on Antenna Technology and Applied Electromagnetics [ANTEM 2005]","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126673398","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}

Investigations of this paper show that the effect of transmission channel on the beamformer performance depends on some parameters such as modulation technique used in the transmitter, mobile environment, and etc. But in general, phase error and angular spread have the worst effect on the beamformer performance.","PeriodicalId":360668,"journal":{"name":"11th International Symposium on Antenna Technology and Applied Electromagnetics [ANTEM 2005]","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121832939","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}
