Embedding antennas with tilted beam patterns into parabolic wave equation‐based models for tunnel propagation

Education in Antennas , Wave Propagation and Microwaves

The paper is focused on teaching of »applied microwaves«. Attention is turned to antennas, but the same structure of education process is possible to apply for e.g. radio-wave propagation, microwaves, EMC, and other »electromagnetic topics« in their whole. The structure of the education is based on the appropriate amount of the theory followed by the computer simulations, the theoretical and en...

A Parabolic Equation for Wave Propagation over Porous Structures

Antennas and Wave Propagation in Body Area Networks

Wireless body area networks (BANs) connect independent nodes for example sensors situated in clothes, on the body, or under the skin of a person through a wireless communication channel. They are offering many new promising applications in the field of remote health monitoring, home/health care, medicine, and sports. A medical application in home/health care is for example mobile cardiotocograp...

Simulation of laser beam propagation with a paraxial model in a tilted frame

We study the Schrödinger equation which comes from the paraxial approximation of the Helmholtz equation in the case where the direction of propagation is tilted with respect to the boundary of the domain. In a first part, a mathematical analysis is made which leads to an analytical formula of the solution in the simple case where the refraction index and the absorption coefficients are constant...
