The metal reflector of the antenna is replaced by two transparent PC(Polycarbonate) channels. The state of the antenna reflector is changed by injecting liquid metal into different transparent PC channels through the pressure pump, so as to provide four pattern modes. The four modes bring three main beam directions of – 48°, 0° and 44° respectively. When the main beam direction is 0, the two modes can provide different half power beam widths. The half power beam width of the other two modes with deflection in the main beam direction can be maintained above 80 ° and the gain can be maintained above 6dB. The working center frequency of the antenna is 2.6GHz, the impedance bandwidth is 220MHz, and the isolation is more than 20dB. Results show that the proposed liquid patch antenna produces a satisfactory impedance matching, and a good agreement between simulation and measurement in terms of radiation characteristics is achieved at the desired frequency. This kind of antenna can be widely used in communication base in the future.","PeriodicalId":442568,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 9th International Symposium on Microwave, Antenna, Propagation and EMC Technologies for Wireless Communications (MAPE)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133370852","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 generation of impurities associated with ICRH & CD is one of the critical issues. Studies indicated that the fluxes of ions accelerated in the radio frequency (RF)-driven sheaths closed to antenna give rise to the parasitic impurity sputtering, arcs and the hot spots on the antenna surface, which will deteriorate the plasma confinement and even cause safety issues such as breakdown of ICRH system. This work reveals that the imbalance of magnetic flux through flux surface controlled by the phase composition and the unsatisfactory structures of antenna components can cause large parallel components of electric field (E//), which in turn lead to the formation of RF-driven sheaths. Aiming to mitigate the RF sheaths impurities of the ICRH antenna in Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST), an alternative plasma load was used during the modeling study to obtain the near-field characteristics. Based on the analysis of the field properties near the antenna, several designs that can alleviate impurity issue on the EAST ICRH antenna were presented, through which the parallel components of electric field and RF-driven sheaths have been greatly improved. The research results expressed in this paper can provide reference for the EAST and China Fusion Engineering Test Reactor (CFETR) ICRH design.","PeriodicalId":442568,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 9th International Symposium on Microwave, Antenna, Propagation and EMC Technologies for Wireless Communications (MAPE)","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124110677","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 constraint relationship of the parameters between the original model and its large-scale model is deduced, and the conversion relation of the shielding effectiveness between the two models is also established. In this method, the large-scale model is obtained by enlarging the original microminiature model in proportion. Then, the shielding effectiveness of the large-scale model is measured by present available methods as well as instruments. The shielding effectiveness of the original model is obtained according to the derived relationship. Finally, this method is applied to a typical microminiature cube.

Input power as the source term in PTT is found to be the one for sustaining the steady power transport, and the corresponding input power operator (IPO) is formulated. Travelling-wave condition satisfied by the travelling-wave modes one-directionally propagating along the waveguide is introduced as a counterpart of the famous Sommerfeld’s radiation condition satisfied by the radiative fields distributing in the far zone. Using the travelling-wave condition and some other necessary conditions, the dependent currents in IPO are effectively eliminated. Under the PTT framework, the recently developed decoupling mode theory (DMT) for the wave-port-fed antennas is further generalized to waveguides. The PTT-based DMT (PTT-DMT) focuses on constructing a set of energy-decoupled modes (DMs) for any pre-selected objective waveguide by diagonalizing the IPO with only independent current, and any two different DMs do not have net energy exchange in an integral period. The PTT-DMT is an effective alternative for the classical eigen-mode theory. The alternative realizes an effective unification for the waveguide-oriented modal analysis theory and the antenna-oriented modal analysis theory, such that the theories can be easily integrated into a single theory for the whole waveguide-antenna combined system in the future.","PeriodicalId":442568,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 9th International Symposium on Microwave, Antenna, Propagation and EMC Technologies for Wireless Communications (MAPE)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127255671","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}
