Gaussian Beam Mode Analysis of Imaging Arrays
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we consider the Gaussian beam mode analysis of imaging arrays on submillimetre-wave radio telescopes. We show how it is possible to describe any of the off-axis beams generated by the array in terms of the same on-axis beam mode set. The mapping process can be easily analysed using a modal approach.

ABCD matrix for reflection and refraction of laser beam at tilted concave and convex elliptic paraboloid interfaces and studying laser beam reflection from a tilted concave parabola of revolution
Studying Gaussian beam is a method to investigate laser beam propagation and ABCD matrix is a fast and simple method to simulate Gaussian beam propagation in different mediums. Of the ABCD matrices studied so far, reflection and refraction matrices at various surfaces have attracted a lot of researches. However in previous work the incident beam and the principle axis of surface are in parallel...
متن کاملGaussian Beam Imaging for Converted and Surface Reflected Waves
An overview of Gaussian beam imaging is given for converted and surface reflected seismic waves. The earthquake seismology community now regularly uses seismic waves from distant sources to illuminate structures beneath seismic arrays in so-called passive imaging experiments. Similarly, reservoir structures can be imaged with seismic waves incident from below using sources in boreholes. Gaussia...

Objective(s): A novel IQ-SPECTTM method has become widely used in clinical studies. The present study compares the quality of myocardial perfusion images (MPI) acquired using the IQ-SPECTTM (IQ-mode),conventional (180° apart: C-mode) and L-mode (90° apart: L-mode) systems. We assessed spatial resolution, image reproducibility and quantifiability using various physical phantoms. Materials and Me...
متن کاملStable propagation of non-Gaussian beams in a multiple-pass cell.
To apply annular output beams emitted from an unstable resonator to a multiple-pass cell (MPC) for Raman conversion, we studied the mode-matching condition of non-Gaussian beams to a MPC using beam propagation analysis based on Laguerre-Gaussian functions. During transits of the MPC, the radial profile of an annular beam changes between annular and Airy patterns. Although such behavior indicate...
متن کاملDesign Investigation of Microstrip Patch and Half-Mode Substrate Integrated Waveguide Cavity Hybrid Antenna Arrays
In this paper two linear arrays including a linear 1×4 and a planar 2×2 of microstrip patch and half-mode substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) cavity hybrid antenna are introduced and investigated. These are simply implemented using low cost single layer printed circuit board (PCB) process. The array element consists of a rectangular microstrip patch with appropriate dimensions in the vicinity ...
