It shows that when RFID antennas are placed in the center of the opposite both walls of the cabinet, the probability density function (PDF) of the higher electric field level can achieve the most effective layout. When objects consist of different dielectric constants in the metal cabinet, the level of the electric field is inversely proportional to the corresponding relative permittivity of the dielectric constants.","PeriodicalId":6801,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Symposium on Antennas and Propagation and USNC-URSI Radio Science Meeting (APS/URSI)","volume":"102 1","pages":"183-184"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75891961","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}

Yet, high computational cost of EM analysis poses a serious challenge for EM-driven antenna design. A possible workaround is to utilize fast surrogates. However, the curse of dimensionality hinders the applicability of the conventional surrogate-assisted frameworks beyond simple structures described by a few parameters. A workaround is offered by the recently proposed nested kriging technique, where the surrogate domain is confined to the parameter space region containing high-quality designs, which allows for setting up reliable models at a low cost. Here, this expenses are further reduced through an explicit domain dimensionality reduction by means of principal component analysis.","PeriodicalId":6801,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE International Symposium on Antennas and Propagation and USNC-URSI Radio Science Meeting (APS/URSI)","volume":"41 1","pages":"1653-1654"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77903070","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}

Based on the theory in geometrical optics, the equations of ideal thick plano-concave lens are derived in solids for a given focal length and material properties. To validate the derived design parameters and the ideal lens, time domain simulation is used to show the propagation of the elastic waves in fused silica block.
