The Decoupling Methods For Increasing The Isolation Between Two Antennas, Min Li, Lijun Jiang
Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
This paper presented the parasitic structure decoupling method and other related approaches to increase the isolation between two closely coupled antennas. The design parameters of the resultant decoupling structures based on the proposed methods can be precisely derived instead of fitted to achieve high antenna isolations. A two-element monopole array is employed as a benchmark to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods. The simulation results show that good impedance matching and high port isolation could be achieved simultaneously based on the proposed methods.

The field distribution of a power/ground plane can be fully characterized by TMzmn modes, where the electric fields have both azimuthal and longitudinal components and the magnetic fields have only the azimuthal component. Thus, if the magnetic fields are defined to be the unknowns in the finite element method (FEM) used for the analysis of the power/ground plane structure, the analysis becomes a quasi-two dimensional (Q-2D) problem. Since the high-order modes are evanescent, they are tightly confined to the near region of the vias guarded by anti-pads; while in the regions sufficiently far from the anti-pads, only the fundamental mode …

In this letter, we develop a prism-based discontinuous Galerkin time-domain (DGTD) algorithm with simplified periodic boundary conditions (PBCs) to analyze infinite doubly periodic frequency selective surfaces (FSS). Most FSS structures contain patterned planar conductive layers and supporting dielectric layers. These layers are very thin compared to the wavelength. Therefore, general tetrahedral discretization of space will unnecessarily increase the number of mesh elements, as well as the number of unknowns. Instead, we propose using prismatic elements, which are more optimal for planar structures, resulting in less unknowns, less memory usage, and higher efficiency. The accuracy of the proposed prism based DGTD …

Solar energy is one of the most promising types of renewable energy. Flat facet solar concentrators were proposed to decrease the cost of materials needed for production. They used small flat mirrors for approximation of parabolic dish surface. The first prototype of flat facet solar concentrators was made in Australia in 1982. Later various prototypes of flat facet solar concentrators were proposed. It was shown that the cost of materials for these prototypes is much lower than the material cost of conventional parabolic dish solar concentrators. To obtain the overall low cost of flat facet concentrators it is necessary to …

A compact wideband high gain directional antenna is proposed in this paper for marine communications. The antenna consists of a back plane (reflector), a slot-loop antenna (driven element), and a director of rod. Based on the current distribution, the slot-loop antenna is equivalent to an array of three linear current dipoles. The dipole acts as an element of the director, which provides a highly efficient director for slot-loop antenna according to theoretical analysis.

Quasi-Continuous Metasurfaces For Orbital Angular Momentum Generation, Menglin L.N. Chen, Li (Lijun) Jun Jiang, Wei E.I. Sha
Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
A quasi-continuous composite perfect electric conductor-perfect magnetic conductor metasurface and a systematic metasurface design process are proposed for the orbital angular momentum (OAM) generation. The metasurfaces reflect the incident left circularly polarized (LCP)/right circularly polarized (RCP) plane wave to RCP/LCP vortex beams carrying OAM at normal or oblique direction. Unlike conventional metasurfaces that are composed of discrete scatterers, the scatterers on the proposed metasurface form a quasi-continuous pattern. The patterning of the metasurface is calculated through grating vectors, and no optimization of single scatterer is required. Furthermore, the distortions from local-response discontinuity of discrete scatterers are avoided. This letter provides …

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
An approach to producing electromagnetic (EM) waves carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) by using three-dimensional (3D) photonic crystals (PCs) is proposed. By introducing a point defect in the PCs, a localized rotation mode is excited and then radiated out through a circular opening upon the defect. The radiated wave carries well-defined OAM. The lowest four OAM modes, i.e., OAM indices of ±1 and ±2, are successfully generated. The effectiveness of our approach is validated by both full-wave simulations and experiments.

In this paper, we systematically study the effect of gate structures of a 4H-SiC UMOSFET on its performance, focusing on the fast-switching performance. Based on the simulation results, DC and AC characteristics of different gate structures are compared. It is found that a structure of UMOSFET, combining a grounded split-gate (SG), a trench bottom protection P+ shielding layer (PS) and a current spreading layer (CSL), yields the best compromise.

The concentration of the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the AlGaN/GaN heterojunction is dominated by the stress developed in AlGaN layer. In this work, the output performance of AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) was improved by depositing a stressed SiNx as a passivation layer, and the external strain applied onto AlGaN was measured using Raman spectroscopy. As a result, an improvement in on-state resistance and drive current of the device was attained due to the extra 2DEG concentration induced by the external strain. Also, to determine the strain-induced threshold-voltage shift, the stress distribution over the gate region was analyzed.

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
Human biogeographical ancestry estimation using genomic information is an important problem with applications in population stratification, admixture mapping, forensic ancestry inference, and in healthcare. Various studies have proposed panels of ancestry informative single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for distinguishing between widely separated continental populations. There has been limited investigation on identifying SNP panels for sub-continental ancestry prediction, especially given the difficult challenge of identifying SNP markers to distinguish closely associated sub-populations, for instance, within a continent. In this study, we propose an ancestry informative SNP selection algorithm exploiting the concept of random subspace projection using supervised learning. The proposed approach identifies …

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
This paper proposes a new algorithm for Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) path planning in 3D space to visit multiple targets using Dubins curves. For a given target-sequence, the 3D path planning is usually solved by two steps: Step 1 projects 3D targets to the X-Y plane and designs a 2D path on this plane; Step 2 maps the 2D path into 3D via interpolation. The proposed new algorithm defines a local coordinate system (LCS) for each pair of targets and designs the 2D Dubins curve in the LCS, then uses the Euler's rotation transformation to convert the 2D dubins curve …

In this paper, we propose a convenient fixed-frequency beam steering method, using a single patch antenna controlled by only one electronically tunable component. The antenna is based on coupled-mode patch antenna (CMPA) [1] that is capable to scan the beam as the function of frequency. A ground-etched slot loaded with one varactor diode is tuned to be capacitive, resonant, or inductive. In order to test broader tuning range, two kinds of varactors with the ranges of 9.24 pF-1.77 pF and 2.67 pF-0.63 pF are implemented respectively. By analyzing how the loaded slot affects the cavity modes and fields, we demonstrate …

In this paper, we utilize the deep learning approach for the subwavelength imaging in far-field, which is realized by the near-field resonant metalens at microwave frequencies. The resonating metalens consisting of split-ring resonators (SRRs) are equipped with the strong magnetic coupling ability and can convert evanescent waves into propagating waves using the localized resonant modes. The propagating waves in the far-field are utilized as the input of a trained deep convolutional neural network (CNN) to realize the imaging. The training data for establishing the deep CNN are obtained by the EM simulation tool. Besides, the white Gaussian noise is added …

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
In this letter, a novel absorbing boundary condition (ABC) computation method for finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) is proposed based on the machine learning approach. The hyperbolic tangent basis function (HTBF) neural network is introduced to replace traditional perfectly matched layer (PML) ABC during the FDTD solving process. The field data on the interface of conventional PML are employed to train HTBF-based PML model. Compared to the conventional approach, the novel method greatly decreases the size of a computation domain and the computation complexity of FDTD because the new model only involves the one-cell boundary layer. Numerical examples are provided to benchmark …

The use of nanostructured delafossite oxides in thermoelectric (TE) applications has attracted a great interest due to their high performance and long-term stability at elevated temperatures. Cuprous delafossites, CuMO2 (M = Al, Cr, Fe, Ga, Mn), compared to conventional TE materials, such as Bi2Te3, PbTe and SiGe, are non-toxic and more earth abundant. In particular, CuAlO2 compound shows a great potential for high performance thermoelectric materials. In this work, a systematic study of temperature dependent TE properties of cuprous delafossite materials, CuAlO2, is reported. The optimization of the TE properties has been …

A composite perfect electric conductor (PEC)-perfect magnetic conductor (PMC) metasurface is proposed for orbital angular momentum (OAM) generation. Each scatterer on the metasurface consists of an anisotropic PEC layer and an isotropic PMC layer. Unlike conventional metasurfaces that composed of discrete scatterers, the scatterers on the proposed metasurface form a quasi-continuous pattern. Therefore, negative consequences of periodicity breaking from the patterned scatterers with varying sizes or orientations and their mutual coupling are avoided. We model the scatterer using Jones matrix. Its design is based on the features of PEC and PMC, which abandons complicated optimization process. The patterning of scatterers …

It is well known that graphene demonstrates spatial dispersion properties [1]-[3], i.e., its conductivity is nonlocal and a function of spectral wave number (momentum operator) q. In this work, to fully account for effects of spatial dispersion on transmission of high-speed signals along graphene nanoribbon (GNR) interconnects, a discontinuous Galerkin time-domain (DGTD) algorithm is proposed. The atomically thick GNR is modeled using a nonlocal transparent surface impedance boundary condition (SIBC) [4] incorporated into the DGTD scheme. Since the conductivity is a complicated function of q (and one cannot find an analytical Fourier transform pair between q and spatial differential operators), …

By using Lorenz gauge and solving the vector and scalar potential formulations in tandem, the A-φ formulationac-curately captures the correct physics of both electrostatics and magnetostatics. The wide-band stable, dense-discretization breakdown free and structure-independent solver provides an alternative solution to various electromagnetic scattering and circuital problems. Also, the A-φformulationis applied to solve the characteristic modes at low frequencies.

It is well known that Green's function can be expressed by multipole expansion, plane-wave expansion, and exponential expansion (spectral representation). These three expansions constitute of the foundations of the fast multipole algorithm (FMA). The plane-wave expansion has the low-frequency breakdown issue due to its failure in capturing the evanescent spectra, while the multipole expansion is inefficient at high frequencies. The spectral representation usually involves in direction-dependent issue. In this communication, the 2-D FMA is interpreted as Parseval's theorem in Fourier transform. To achieve a stable and accurate transition between the multipole expansion and the plane-wave expansion, a novel diagonalization in …

In this letter, we present a wideband planar antenna with on-demand band-rejected characteristics based on the peelable double electric-LC (DELC) resonator membranes. By applying microfabrication techniques, the subwavelength DELC structure is completely encapsulated in a transparent and flexible thin film with a total thickness of 10 mum. Resonators with four different widths (4.0, 3.6, 3.2, 2.8 mm) are packaged as a solution kit, providing the rejection bands of 4.24-5.11, 4.61-5.38, 4.85-5.48, and 5.20-5.70 GHz, respectively. Owing to the passive and detachable features of this functional sticker, no biasing network is needed for the rejection band's on/off transition and the membrane …

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
A single-layer two-pole dual-band filtering antenna (DBFA) with orthogonal polarizations in the two bands is presented in this letter. The DBFA is based on a common dual-mode T-shaped resonator (TR). The two modes of the common resonator each couple to one of the two orthogonally placed patches, resulting in required radiation. The TR is responsible for generation of three transmission zeroes (TZs) in frequency response corresponding to each polarization at the broadside: two of them being intrinsic TZs due to the TR and the third caused by far field interference of TR's radiation with that of the patch. The low …

With the increased sensitivity of modern nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometers, the minimum amount needed for chemical-shift referencing of NMR spectra has decreased to a point where a few microliters can be sufficient to observe a reference signal. The reduction in the amount of required reference material is the basis for the NMR Capillary-tube Package (CapPack) platform that utilizes capillary tubes with inner diameters smaller than 150 µm as NMR-tube inserts for external reference standards. It is shown how commercially available electrophoresis capillary tubes with outer diameters of 360 µm are filled with reference liquids or solutions and then permanently …

Blazed Metasurface Grating With Handedness Preservation For Circularly Polarized Incident Wave, Xiaoqiang Li, Cheng Tao, Lijun Jiang, Tatsuo Itoh
Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
A new blazed metasurface grating for circularly polarized (CP) incident wave operating at 10 GHz is proposed. Such a structure can provide strong auto-collimation for the CP incident wave. Unlike the conventional scatterer, which typically reverses the handedness of the incident CP wave upon reflection, the proposed grating can preserve the handedness. The auto-collimation blazing effect and handedness preservation are achieved by a specially designed reactive impedance surface, which allows independent response controls to transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) polarizations. The proposed idea is demonstrated by simulations and verified by experiments. Comparisons with conventional sawtooth grating are made …
