They can be used at the initial stage of the antenna design to choose optimal values for the substrate parameters and slot length. The internal feature of printed slot antennas that is to radiate the most of the input power into a media with a higher dielectric constant, results in their low efficiency, since the dielectric constant of the substrate is usually much higher then that of the atmosphere. The same feature, however, makes the printed slot antennas a very attractive feeder for the DRA, since the dielectric permittivity of the DRA can be chosen much higher then that of the substrate. The generalization of the presented formulas for some practical antenna structures of interest, such as slot antenna driving a hemispherical dielectric resonator or slot antenna on a finite width dielectric substrate is straightforward. Some preliminarily results on these structures are to be reported during the presentation. The accuracy of the method can be increased since the current distribution M (y) = (L/2 − |y|) × cos[k × (L/2 − |y|)] also allows the closed form expression for the antenna impedance. This function together with (1) can be used for very efficient implementation of the MoM for the printed antenna impedance and efficiency calculations.","PeriodicalId":416991,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Antenna Technology and Applied Electromagnetics [ANTEM 2000]","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127806887","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 presented approach enables one to simply build curves B = B (H) and μ = μ(H) using the cubic spline functions C(2). All procedures are practically given analytically, so that by having good information on the magnetic field at the beginning and at the end of a treated curve given by the couple (H,B), we obtain the curve twice differentiable. It is important to mention that we do not need to have many date points to construct all presented curves. Having the approximation of the curve B = B (H) and using the software package ‘CURVES’, it is possible to get much more information about the maximal value of the relative magnetic permeability, the differential permeability and the approximation of the curve μ = μ(H).

The magnitude of the acoustic interference depends on several parameters of the telephone and aid. For a given hearing aid and telephone, the EMI depends on the electric and magnetic fields in the location of the hearing aid. The magnitude and direction of electromagnetic fields from a cellular telephone are very different in the ear canal compared to those in free space. In this contribution we present the results of numerical modeling of one telephone and one hearing aid. This hearing aid was extensively investigated by the US Food and Drug Administration laboratory. They evaluated the ratios of acoustic signals at 217 Hz in the ear canal and free space from the same telephone. The telephone was for SGM, and operated at about 900 MHz with TDMA. Electric and magnetic fields in free space in very close proximity to the telephone were measured in its manufacturer's research laboratory.","PeriodicalId":416991,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Antenna Technology and Applied Electromagnetics [ANTEM 2000]","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2000-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133218051","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}
