Combined Vibrator-Slot Structures: Theory and Applications


Book Description

The book presents solutions to a complex of internal and external problems of electromagnetics associated with the development of theory, construction of mathematical models and the development of rigorous methods for calculating the electrodynamic characteristics of combined vibrator-slot structures. The solutions of problems for determining the characteristics of impedance vibrator and slot radiators with arbitrary geometric and electrophysical parameters presented in the monograph were obtained within the framework of the unified methodological approach to construct asymptotic solutions of integral equations on currents and their systems. This approach made it possible to study a number of new combined vibrator-slot structures. The research results reveal the possibilities of using such structures as basic elements in the creation of modern antenna-waveguide devices operating in the ranges from meter to millimeter wavelengths, with new technical characteristics and functional purpose. The book is intended for senior and postgraduate students and researchers working in the fields of radiophysics, radio engineering and antenna-feeder design. The book covers the following topics: • excitation of electromagnetic waves in volumes with coordinate boundaries;• general issues of the theory of thin impedance vibrators and narrow slots in a spatial-frequency representation;• solution of current equations for isolated vibrator and slot scatterers;• combined radiating vibrator-slot structures in rectangular waveguide;• T-junctions of rectangular waveguides with vibrator-slot structures in coupling areas;• waveguide radiation of the combined vibrator-slot structures;• combined vibrator-slot structures located on a perfectly conducting sphere;• combined vibrator-slot Radiators in antenna arrays;• ultrawideband vibrator-slot structures;




Advanced Electromagnetic Waves


Book Description

This book endeavors to give the reader a strong base in the advanced theory of electromagnetic waves and its applications, while keeping pace with research in various other disciplines that apply electrostatics/electrodynamics theory. The treatment is highly mathematical, which tends to obscure the principles involved.




Electromagnetic Fields and Waves


Book Description

This textbook is intended for a course in electromagnetism for upper undergraduate and graduate students. The main concepts and laws of classical macroscopic electrodynamics and initial information about generalized laws of modern electromagnetics are discussed, explaining some paradoxes of the modern theory. The reader then gets acquainted with electrodynamics methods of field analysis on the basis of wave equation solution. Emission physics are considered using an example of the Huygens-Fresnel-Kirchhoff canonic principle. The representation about strict electrodynamics task statement on the base of Maxwell equations, boundary conditions, emission conditions and the condition on the edge is given. Different classes of approximate boundary conditions are presented, which essentially simplify understanding of process physics. The canonic Fresnel functions are given and their generalization on the case of anisotropic impedance. The free waves in closed waveguides and in strip-slotted and edge-dielectric transmission lines are described. A large number of Mathcad programs for illustration of field patterns and its properties in different guiding structures are provided. The material is organized for self-study as well as classroom use.

Vibrator and Slot Antenna Arrays for Modern Applications


Book Description

This book provides solutions to a complex of internal and external problems of electromagnetics associated with the development of theory, construction of mathematical models and the development of rigorous methods for calculating the electrodynamic characteristics of radiating structures and antenna arrays with impedance vibrator and slot elements. The issues related to the impedance synthesis of antenna arrays and analysis of large-aperture rectenna arrays are considered. Solutions to the problems of determining the electrodynamic characteristics of impedance vibrators, slot and multi-element radiators with arbitrary geometric and electrophysical parameters are obtained within the framework of a unified methodological approach to constructing asymptotic solutions of integral equations for currents. This approach made it possible to study a number of new vibrator, slotted, and combined vibrator-slotted structures and their multi-element systems. The original research results reveal the possibilities of using such structures as basic elements for creating modern antenna-waveguide devices operating in the range from meter to millimeter wavelengths which have new technical characteristics and functionalities. This book is intended for senior and postgraduate students and researchers working in the fields of radiophysics, radio engineering and antenna-feeder design. The book covers the following topics: Excitation of Electromagnetic Fields in Electrodynamic Volumes with Coordinate Boundaries General Aspects of the Theory of Thin Impedance Vibrators and Narrow Slots in a Quasi-One-Dimensional Approximation Impedance Vibrators Antenna Arrays Slotted Waveguide Antenna Arrays Combined Vibrator-Slot Antenna Arrays Impedance Synthesis for Vibrator Antenna Arrays Impedance Synthesis for Slot Antenna Arrays Large-Aperture Rectenna Arrays of Wireless Power Transmission Systems Ultrawideband Combined Vibrator-Slot Antenna Arrays
