Antenna gain of more than 10 dBic and axial ratio of less than 3 dB were obtained at 285.12 GHz to 289.44 GHz, which are ch 16 and ch 17 of IEEE 802.15.3d. If the power of the four ports were ideally combined, the antenna gain would increase by 6 dB to 16 dBic. A lens was designed for the circularly polarized 4x4 element 4-port antenna. The focal length of the lens was 100 mm and lens radius is 35 mm. An antenna gain of 40 dBic was calculated using the lens. Placing the 4x4 element 4-port antenna at the focal length of the lens would provide maximum gain, but no beam steering by phase controle. Placing the antenna closer than the focal length would lower the antenna gain but allow beam steering by phase controle. The antenna gain and beam tilt angle were calculated for different distances between the lens and the 4x4 element 4-port antenna. A lens antenna with a lens height of 70 mm was assembled and beam steering was measured.","PeriodicalId":54101,"journal":{"name":"IEICE Communications Express","volume":"14 3","pages":"91-94"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10856837","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143800958","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In radio propagation, the time of arrival (TOA) at the receiver from the transmitter is typically determined by the propagation delay, which is the distance divided by the speed of light in a line-of-sight (LoS) scenario. However, in THz the observable TOA could exceed the propagation delay due to an additional delay denoted by MA delay caused by molecular absorption. This MA delay introduces a biased estimate into conventional distance estimations. In this letter, a novel distance estimation method based on TOA incorporating MA delay is proposed. Numerical evaluations indicate that our proposed distance estimation method outperforms the conventional approach by accounting for the effects of MA delay.","PeriodicalId":54101,"journal":{"name":"IEICE Communications Express","volume":"14 3","pages":"99-102"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10856835","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143800760","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We have developed a high-throughput walk-through and whole-body security screening system called Invisible Sensing (IVS) based on radar imaging and deep learning. In our previous work, we have demonstrated that the IVS system can detect guns and knives while subject persons walk through the system. This paper presents a newly developed function to detect explosives in radar images on the IVS system. Since most explosives have low reflectivity to microwaves, it is difficult to detect the shape of explosives in radar images. In contrast, the human body is highly reflective and visible in radar images. We propose a novel approach to detect low-reflective explosives in radar images by learning shadow features against the high-reflective human body background. We demonstrate that the proposed detection technique integrated into the IVS system achieved successful explosive detection performance in real time.","PeriodicalId":54101,"journal":{"name":"IEICE Communications Express","volume":"14 2","pages":"71-74"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2024-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10799932","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143107200","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A single small coil antenna attached to the tube generates nulls, where the tags become unreadable due to specific tag orientations.

However, the discrete WVD (DWVD) has the problem of a narrow frequency observation range. This is because the time sampling of the symmetric instantaneous auto-correlation function (SIAF) changes simultaneously in the positive and negative directions. As a result, the sampling period of the SIAF in the case of DWVD is doubled and the frequency observation range is halved. Therefore, we propose a DWVD that does not narrow the frequency observation range. Specifically, when deriving the SIAF, in addition to the conventional sample that varies in both the positive and negative directions, we consider a sample averaged over two samples that vary only in the positive or negative direction. The proposed process allows the DWVD to be performed without halving the frequency observation range. However, this process causes a small aliasing component, which can be reduced by the use of window functions. This study will demonstrate this effect by using the proposed method for chirp waveforms.","PeriodicalId":54101,"journal":{"name":"IEICE Communications Express","volume":"14 2","pages":"67-70"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2024-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10799926","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143107199","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To achieve a radiation pattern with the main beam directed at 30 degrees from the broadside direction, 28 supercells are fabricated on a grounded GaAs substrate of dimensions 4.4 mm × 4.4 mm. Full-wave simulations are conducted, demonstrating that the proposed metasurface achieves an overall gain of 10 dBi under a horn excitation.
