It is composed of two dual-resonant AMC cells, which enable a broadband phase difference of 180°±30°from 7.9 GHz to 19.2 GHz to be achieved. A novel strategy is devised by dividing each rectangular grid in a chessboard configuration into four triangular grids, leading to a further reduction of peak bistatic RCS. Both fullwave simulation and measurement results show that the proposed metasurface presents a good RCS reduction property over an ultra-wideband frequency range.展开更多

The Generalized Cross-Validation （GCV） method and the L-curve method were used for deter- mining the regularization parameter. The Successive Over-Relaxation （SOR） iterative method was used to increase the exactness and stability of the converged result. The simulated results based on the modified algorithm are in a good agreement with the experimental data measured for nine standard particulate samples, their mixtures as well as three natural particulate materials with irregular shapes, indicating that this modified regularization method is not only feasible but also effective for the simulation of PSD from corresponding light-scattering data.展开更多

Good estimates of the average size of the argon, krypton and xenon clusters are made by carrying out a series of Rayleigh scattering experiments. In the experiments, we have found that the scattered signal intensity varied greatly with the opening area of the pulsed valve. A new method is put forward to choose the appropriate scattered signal and measure the size of Kr cluster.展开更多
