The novelty of the method lies in the application of Shifted Frequency Internal Equivalence (SFIE) for 3D electromagnetic problems. Two different equivalence equations are obtained using equivalent volume and surface sources with operating frequency ω and shifted frequency ω 0 . Most of the equations are formed using the fixed, shifted frequency, and these are coupled with the equations obtained for outer equivalence using the operating frequency ω, in order to have a solvable matrix equation. The Method of Moments (MoM) is chosen for the solution of equivalence equations because of simplicity although other numerical methods, e.g. Finite Element Method (FEM), iterative methods can be selected. The EM scattering from dielectric bodies with complex permittivity is investigated in a frequency sweep analysis. The solution obtained with SFIE is compared with Volume Integral Equation (VIE) solved using the classical MoM, simulation software and Mie scattering theory results. The improvements in CPU time compared to MoM is also presented.","PeriodicalId":89936,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Electromagnetics in Advanced Applications : proceedings : ICEAA.

It is shown that by interpolating the expansion coefficients of an orthogonal set of basis functions for the full radiation pattern, the expected rational response in frequency (and some geometric parameters) can be exploited to construct accurate interpolation models using very few training data. In many cases it is not possible to predict the functional form of the response features, and therefore interpolation directly on these data requires more training samples than for the expansion coefficient case.","PeriodicalId":89936,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Electromagnetics in Advanced Applications : proceedings : ICEAA.

Conformal microwave antenna array for hyperthermia treatment of large area superficial diseases can significantly increase patient comfort while at the same time facilitate treatment of larger and more irregularly shaped disease. A large number of small efficient antennas is preferable for improved control of heating, as the disease can be more accurately contoured and the lower power requirement correlates with system reliability, linearity and reduced cost. Thus, starting from the initially proposed square slot antennas, we investigated new designs for multi-fed slot antennas of several shapes that maximize slot perimeter while reducing radiating area, thus increasing antenna efficiency. Simulations were performed with commercial electromagnetic simulation software packages (Ansoft HFSS) to demonstrate that the antenna size reduction method is effective for several dual concentric conductor (DCC) aperture shapes and operating frequencies. The theoretical simulations allowed the development of a set of design rules for multi-fed DCC slot antennas that facilitate conformal heat treatments of irregular size and shape disease with large multi-element arrays. Independently on the shape, it is shown that the perimeter of 10cm at 915 MHz delivers optimal radiation pattern and efficiency. While the maximum radiation is obtained for a circular pattern the rectangular shape is the one that feels more efficiently the array space.</p>","PeriodicalId":89936,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Electromagnetics in Advanced Applications : proceedings : ICEAA.
