Dual-band multi-beam reconfigurable terahertz antenna based on graphene frequency selective surface

In this paper,a dual-band graphene-based frequency selective surface(GFSS)is investigated and the operating mechanism of this GFSS is analyzed.By adjusting the bias voltage to control the graphene chemical po-tential between 0 eV and 0.5 eV,the GFSS can achieve four working states:dual-band passband,high-pass lowimpedance,low-pass high-impedance,and band-stop.Based on this GFSS,a hexagonal radome on a broadband omnidirectional monopole antenna is proposed,which can achieve independent 360°six-beam omnidirectional scanning at 1.08 THz and 1.58 THz dual bands.In addition,while increasing the directionality,the peak gains of the dual bands reach 7.44 dBi and 6.67 dBi,respectively.This work provides a simple method for realizing multi-band terahertz multi-beam reconfigurable antennas.

14W X-Band AlGaN/GaN HEMT Power MMICs

The development of an AIGaN/GaN HEMT power MMIC on SI-SiC designed in microstrip technology is pres- ented. A recessed-gate and a field-plate are used in the device processing to improve the performance of the AIGaN/GaN HEMTs. S-parameter measurements show that the frequency performance of the AIGaN/GaN HEMTs depends significantly on the operating voltage. Higher operating voltage is a key to higher power gain for the AIGaN/GaN HEMTs. The developed 2-stage power MMIC delivers an output power of more than 10W with over 12dB power gain across the band of 9-11GHz at a drain bias of 30V. Peak output power inside the band reaches 14.7W with a power gain of 13.7dB and a PAE of 23%. The MMIC chip size is only 2.0mm × 1. 1mm. This work shows superiority over previously reported X-band AIGaN/GaN HEMT power MMICs in output power per millimeter gate width and output power per unit chip size.

A broad-band sub-harmonic mixer for W-band applications

In order to improve the bandwidth of the conventional sub-harmonic mixer, a broad-band, high intermediate frequency（IF） sub-harmonic mixer for W-band applications is proposed. Replacing the open and short stubs that are used in the convertional sub-harmonic mixer with a broad-band band-pass filter and a low-pass filter, respectively, a wide operating frequency band is achieved. Furthermore, without the use of the edge-coupled band-pass filter at radio frequency（RF） port, the proposed structure can be realized by common hybrid microwave integrated circuit technology at W- band. The measured results show that the proposed subharmonic mixer can operate from 80 to 107.5 GHz for RF frequency and support up to 18 GHz for the IF bandwidth. Also, the measured results show that the single-sideband conversion loss is less than 13. 7 dB over the available RF frequency band, while the minimum conversion loss is about 9 dB at an RF of 92. 5 GHz and an 1F of 3 GHz. Thus, a large operating bandwidth performance at W-band can be achieved by the orooosed mixer.

A Ka Broadband High Gain Monolithic LNA with a Noise Figure of 2dB

A four-stage monolithic microwave integrated circuits （MMIC） low noise amplifier （LNA） operating from 23 to 36GHz is reported using commercially available 0.15μm PHEMT technology. The LNA is self-biased. To achieve a low noise characteristic, careful optimizations of gate width are performed to reduce gate resistance. Absorption circuits and an elaborate bias structure with a resistor-capacitor network are employed to improve stability. Multiple resonance points and negative feedback technologies are used to widen the bandwidth. Measurements show a noise figure （NF） of less than 2.0dB,and the lowest NF is only 1.6dB at a frequency of 31GHz. In the whole operation band,the LNA has a gain of higher than 26dB,and an input return loss and output return loss of more than 11 and 13dB,respectively. The output power at ldB compression gain of 36GHz is about 14dBm. The chip area is 2.4mm ×1mm.

EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF FORCED SHOCK TRAIN OSCILLATION IN ISOLATOR UNDER ASYMMETRIC INCOMING FLOW

To analyze the response of the wall pressure fluctuation in an isolator when the shock train is subjected to a periodic motion at a low frequency,the isolator experiment is conducted in a blow-down supersonic wind tunnel at free stream Mach number of 1.98 under asymmetric incoming flow.Experimental results show that：The isolator effectively isolates the periodic back pressure fluctuation from affecting upstream undisturbed flow;The wall pressure fluctuations are due to the propagation of wave fronts with the second acoustic mode,but they are subjected to an oscillating shock train in the most part of the shock oscillation region;The attenuation of wall pressure fluctuations on the lower wall with thick boundary layer accords with the exponential law,but it fluctuates on the upper wall with thin boundary layer in the shock oscillation region.

EFFECTS OF INCOMING FLOW ASYMMETRY ON SHOCK TRAIN STRUCTURES IN CONSTANT-AREA ISOLATORS

To simulate the actual flowfield at the exit of the supersonic/hypersonic inlet, a wind tunnel is designed to study the flow in the scramjet isolator under the asymmetric incoming flow. And compression fields in the isolator are investigated using wall static and pitot pressure measurements. Three incoming Mach numbers are considered as 1.5, 1.8 and 2. Results show that the increase of the asymmetry of the flow at the isolator entrance leads to the increase of the shock train length in the isolator for a given pressure ratio. Based on the analysis of the flow asymmetry effect at the isolator entrance on the shock train length, a modified correlation is proposed to calculate the length of the shock train. Predicted results of the proposed correlation are in good agreement with the experimental data.

Extracting Feature Bands for Damaged Rice Leaves by Planthoppers Using Multi-spectral Imaging Technology

[Objective] The aim of this study was to extract effective feature bands of damaged rice leaves by planthoppers to make identification and classification rapidly from great amounts of imaging spectral data. [Method] The experiment, using multi-spectral imaging system, acquired the multi-spectral images of damaged rice leaves from band 400 to 720 nm by interval of 5 nm. [Result] According to the principle of band index, it was calculated that the bands at 515, 510, 710, 555, 630, 535, 505, 530 and 595 nm were having high band index value with rich information and little correlation. Furthermore, the experiment used two classification methods and calcu-lated the classification accuracy higher than 90.00% for feature bands and ful bands of damaged rice leaves by planthoppers respectively. [Conclusion] It can be con-cluded that these bands can be considered as effective feature bands to identify damaged rice leaves by planthoppers quickly from a large scale of crops.

W-band sharp-rejection bandpass filter with notch cavities

High-Q notch cavities combined with a low-order E-plane fin-line filter are used for designing a sharp-rejection band-pass filter （BPF） at W-band. Based on the conventional E-plane fin-line structure, an E-plane extended cavity is implemented to enhance the suppression at unwanted frequency points near the passband. The passband performance is not disturbed and the whole structure remains simple to be assembled. To extend the suppression bandwidth, two separated notch cavities are designed and arranged at the input and output ends of the fin-line filter, respectively. A prototype BPF is fabricated and measured. Experimental results show that the minimum insertion loss is 2.7 dB over a passband of 1 GHz. The suppression is about 85 dB near 91.7 GHz, which is 2.2 GHz lower than the center frequency. Experimental results agree well with simulation.

A 12～18GHz Wide Band VCO Based on Quasi-MMIC

Using an in-house MMIC and an off-chip,high-quality varactor, a novel wide band VCO covered Ku band is introduced. In contrast to HMIC technology, this method reduces the complexity of microchip assembly. More importantly,it overcomes the constraint that the standard commercial GaAs pHEMT MMIC process is usually not compatible with highquality varactors for VCO,and it significantly improves the phase noise and frequency tuning linearity performances compared to either MMIC or HMIC implementation. It is a novel and high-quality method to develop microwave and millimeter wave VCO.

Extraction of internal wave amplitude from nautical X-Band radar observations

One of the most important parameters for oceanic internal waves (IWs) is their amplitude. We have developed a method to retrieve the IW amplitude from nautical X-Band radar images based on the KdV equation for continuous stratified finite depth system. We have also tested the method of measuring the amplitude of IWs from X-Band radar backscatter image sequences acquired on June 2009 in the northeastern South China Sea. The method was applied in several radar images. Experiments show that the retrieval amplitudes are consistent with the in-situ observational amplitudes of IWs by using the towed thermistor chain and conductivity-temperature-depth (CTD) profile. The uncertainty of the method is also discussed.

High Temperature Spectrum for v3 Band of Carbon Dioxide

The total internal partition sums （TIPS） are calculated at the temperature up to 6000 K for 12 C16 02. Using the calculated partition functions, we produce the line intensities of v3 band of 12C1602 at several high temperatures. The results show that the calculated line intensities are in very good agreement with those of HITRAN database at the temperature up to 3000 K, which provides a strong support for the calculations of TIPS and line intensities at high temperature. Then the calculation is extended to further high temperature, and the simulated spectra of u3 band of 12C1602 at 5000 and 6000 K are reported.

The gas reservoir response in PP- and PS-wave frequency sections

Spectral decomposition using the method of Matching Pursuit Decomposition （MPD） for PP- and PS-wave data has higher resolution and higher consistency over the entire time-frequency plane. The MPD algorithm avoids the problems of inaccurate analytic time point and the time window size choice that may occur during a Fourier transform. The PP-wave attenuation is greater than the PS-wave attenuation while propagating through gas reservoirs. There are some stronger amplitude low-frequency shadows on the PP-wave single frequency sections beneath gas reservoirs which are not seen on corresponding PS- wave single frequency sections. Therefore, hydrocarbons are predicted from comparing the behavior on both frequency sections. The time-frequency analysis for multi-component data is decomposed by MPD for data from northeast China containing rich gas reservoirs. The gas response character is analyzed on different wave mode single frequency sections. We describe the MPD algorithm, compare it to other spectral decomposition methods, and show some examples of detecting low-frequency shadows beneath gas reservoirs.

Effects of RapidEye Imagery's Red-edge Band and Vegetation Indices on Land Cover Classification in an Arid Region

Land cover classification(LCC) in arid regions is of great significance to the assessment, prediction, and management of land desertification. Some studies have shown that the red-edge band of RapidE ye images was effective for vegetation identification and could improve LCC accuracy. However, there has been no investigation of the effects of RapidE ye images' red-edge band and vegetation indices on LCC in arid regions where there are spectrally similar land covers mixed with very high or low vegetation coverage information and bare land. This study focused on a typical inland arid desert region located in Dunhuang Basin of northwestern China. First, five feature sets including or excluding the red-edge band and vegetation indices were constructed. Then, a land cover classification system involving plant communities was developed. Finally, random forest algorithm-based models with different feature sets were utilized for LCC. The conclusions drawn were as follows: 1) the red-edge band showed slight contribution to LCC accuracy; 2) vegetation indices had a significant positive effect on LCC; 3) simultaneous addition of the red-edge band and vegetation indices achieved a significant overall accuracy improvement(3.46% from 86.67%). In general, vegetation indices had larger effect than the red-edge band, and simultaneous addition of them significantly increased the accuracy of LCC in arid regions.
