| In this paper we present a novel approach for the incorporation of wavelets into the solution of frequency-domain integral equations arising in scattering problems. In this approach, we utilize the fact that when the basis functions used are wavelet-type functions, only a few terms in a series expansion would be needed to represent the unknown quantity. Moreover, an iterative procedure is sug...

Photonic Band-Gap Materials for High-Gain Printed Circuit Antennas [Letters] - Antennas and Propagation, IEEE Transactions on

It is found through a vector integral-equation analysis and the reciprocity theorem that the gain of a microstrip antenna can be greatly enhanced with a photonic band-gap (PBG) material layer either as the substrate or the superstrate. The beam angle is found to coincide with that of a leaky-wave mode of a planar-grating structure. This observation suggests that high gain is due to the excitati...

Hershberger' raised the question of xvhether a multiplicit>. of resonances had been observed in radio reflections from meteor trails at frequencies near the plasma frequency similar to those observed from positive columns in the laboratory. Nolv that a theoretical description of the process leading to the laboratory observations is available2 one can determine whether such resonances...
