In the system, two quasi-zenith satellites have a retro-directive antenna on board and an earth station have two beam antenna in the direction to the two quasi-zenith satellites. The crustal movement at the area of the earth stations is obtained by interfering with two signals from the retro-directive antennas which transmit the receiving waves from the earth station antenna. The link budget for the system is carried out, and a spherical reflector antenna for two beam antenna is designed.","PeriodicalId":404116,"journal":{"name":"2010 URSI International Symposium on Electromagnetic Theory","volume":"36 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":"114216560","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 shutter mechanism is controlled by an electric pulse on a photo-cathode, through which the incoming X-ray light is converted to an electron density distribution via photoelectric effect. The purpose of this study is to compensate for the simultaneity of the pulse-gated image by spatially controlling the transit time of photoelectrons. Control of the transit time is achieved by slightly inclining the photocathode. However, the configuration of the Micro Channel Plate (MCP) is different from that of conventional MCP gated cameras. Therefore, it is necessary to perform a time-domain analysis of the amplification characteristics of the MCP when the gating pulse is applied to the electrodes on the MCP.","PeriodicalId":404116,"journal":{"name":"2010 URSI International Symposium on Electromagnetic Theory","volume":"1 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":"115936655","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}

Using closed-form dispersion relations derived in the complex domain, we discuss the dispersion properties of leaky and complex modes, and we highlight under which conditions a sub-diffractive nanoparticle array may support directive conical radiation with frequency scanning properties.
