Losses in left-handed materials.
Interest in negative refractive index, or left-handed (LH) materials, has escalated rapidly over the last few years and it now appears that useful LH materials may be realizable in the microwave region. However there is also considerable interest in LH materials for infrared and visible applications. The purpose of this paper is to explore the limitations of LH materials at short wavelengths du...
متن کاملEffective medium theory of left-handed materials.
We analyze the transmission and reflection data obtained through transfer matrix calculations on metamaterials of finite lengths, to determine their effective permittivity epsilon and permeability micro. Our study concerns metamaterial structures composed of periodic arrangements of wires, cut wires, split ring resonators (SRRs), closed SRRs, and both wires and SRRs. We find that the SRRs have ...
متن کاملMicrowave Imaging Using SAR
Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (Pol.-SAR) allows us to implement the recognition and classification of radar targets. This article investigates the arrangement of scatterers by SAR data and proposes a new Look-up Table of Region (LTR). This look-up table is based on the combination of (entropy H/Anisotropy A) and (Anisotropy A/scattering mechanism α), which has not been reported up now. ...
متن کاملPhase compensating effect in left-handed materials
Based on the difference between negative refraction and negative refractive index, the phase compensating effect was proposed to distinguish negative refraction in left-handed materials (LHMs) and photonic crystals (PCs). With this effect, perfect lens (PL) of LHM in which both propagating and evanescent waves contribute to the image could be well understood, which is differed from superlens ma...
متن کاملMicrowave Radiometry Imaging for Forest Fire Detection: a Simulation Study
This paper deals with passive microwave imaging for fire detection by means of a single-channel ground-based radiometer. The simulation of images sensed in the presence of fire spots under different environmental and operative conditions will be presented. We will refer to a low-cost ground-based radiometer operating at 12.65GHz. Scenarios where fires are un-visible and IR sensors are not usefu...
