The key step is to prove the injectivity of a coefficient-to-intensity mapping operator. As corollaries, the multiple-signal-classification method can be used to locate point-like scatterers, and polarization tensors can be non-iteratively retrieved. This paper provides the theoretical foundation to recently published phaseless retrieval work. Finally, the advantage and disadvantage of the subspace method are discussed.","PeriodicalId":404116,"journal":{"name":"2010 URSI International Symposium on Electromagnetic Theory","volume":"310 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124473013","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}

Suitable asymptotic extractions are performed on the slowly converging spectral series. The extracted terms are summed back through the Ewald method, modified and optimized to efficiently deal with all the different terms. The accelerated Green's functions allow for complex wavenumbers, and are thus suitable for application to leaky-wave antennas analysis. Suitable choices of the spectral integration paths are made in order to account for leakage effects and the proper/improper nature of the various space harmonics that form the 1-D periodic Green's function.","PeriodicalId":404116,"journal":{"name":"2010 URSI International Symposium on Electromagnetic Theory","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127971309","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}

For time harmonic plane waves in homogeneous anisotropic materials an explicit analytic expression can be derived involving the phase propagation vector and the eigenvectors (polarizations) of the respective wave modes (quasi-pressure, quasi-shear). Numerical evaluation yields plane wave energy velocity diagrams for these wave modes that depend on the direction of the phase vector. On the other hand, for impulsive elastic wave packets a group velocity can be defined under certain assumptions as the gradient in phase space of the dispersion relation. As will be shown in the paper, if definable, the group velocity can be alternatively computed by the expression for the energy velocity. This is particularly interesting because frequency band-limited impulsive elastic waves emanating from point sources (band-limited time domain Green functions, Huygens elementary elastic wave packets) exhibit a spatial structure identical to plane wave energy velocity diagrams giving rise to their calculation without the explicit knowledge of the pertinent Green functions. Therefore, time harmonic plane waves serve as a computational tool for impulsive point source excited waves that has consequences for elastic wave diffraction tomographic imaging.","PeriodicalId":404116,"journal":{"name":"2010 URSI International Symposium on Electromagnetic Theory","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126845786","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}

In order to verify these predictions, it is common to extract material data from a scattering experiment, where the primary data extracted are wave parameters such as wave number and wave impedance. Using Cramér-Rao lower bounds, we show that in a waveguide setting the wave impedance is ill-determined at resonance and the wave number is well-determined, but both permittivity and permeability are ill-determined. We also show that a priori knowledge is essential in order to extract anisotropic material data.","PeriodicalId":404116,"journal":{"name":"2010 URSI International Symposium on Electromagnetic Theory","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123148065","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 so-called Riemann sum method (RSM) is applied for the parametrisation of the simulation model. Furthermore, the statistical properties of the wideband MIMO V2V channel simulation model, such as the space-time-frequency cross-correlation function (STF-CCF), the two-dimensional spatial cross-correlation function (2D spatial CCF) and the temporal auto-correlation function (ACF) are studied. Finally, the high accuracy of the proposed simulation model is demonstrated by comparing the correlation properties of the simulation model with those of the underlying reference model. This research work is important for designers of MIMO V2V communication systems as the proposed simulation tool allows the analysis, optimization, and test of high data rate transmission schemes under realistic T-junction scattering conditions.","PeriodicalId":404116,"journal":{"name":"2010 URSI International Symposium on Electromagnetic Theory","volume":"210 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123039343","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}
