Convergence of Gaussian - Beam Modes in Corrugated Conical Horns
نویسنده
چکیده
Gaussian beam-mode expansion with only the fundamental mode does not work properly when the angular region of interest is wide. It is necessary to use higher-order mode for the expansion. A study of the convergence of these higher order modes is presented for the case of a corrugated conical horn. Conclusions about the number of modes necessary for good accuracy are given. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Modelling Few-moded Horns for Far-ir Space Applications
Few-moded or over-moded horns are now being proposed for far-IR space receiver systems, e.g. the High Frequency Instrument (HFI) on the ESA PLANCK Surveyor. In such systems individual waveguide modes can couple independently to an overmoded detector (such as a bolometer in an integrating cavity). We consider in detail the case of a cylindrically symmetric configuration consisting of a corrugate...
متن کاملCrushing Analysis of Empty and Foam-Filled Cylindrical and Conical Corrugated Composite Tubes
In the present article, a numerical study is performed to investigate the crushing behavior of cylindrical and conical corrugated composite tubes. Different aluminum foams are applied to the proposed structures in order to offer an excellent energy absorption capacity. The crushing behavior of tubes are evaluated in terms of two parameters: SEA (specific energy absorption) and CFE (crush force ...
متن کاملMultiple flare-angle horn feeds for sub-mm astronomy and cosmic microwave background experiments
Context. The use of large-format focal plane imaging arrays employing multiple feed horns is becoming increasingly important for the next generation of single dish sub-mm telescopes and cosmology experiments. Such receivers are being commissioned on both general purpose, common user telescopes and telescopes specifically designed for mapping intensity and polarisation anisotropies in the cosmic...
متن کاملHigh efficiency quasi-optical mode converters for overmoded gyrotrons
This thesis reports on the design and experimental verification of two novel high efficiency quasi-optical mode converters for gyrotron oscillators. Gyrotrons produce high order TEm,p modes (m, p > > 1) at high frequencies (100-300 GHz). These modes must be converted to low order linearly polarized modes for transmission in corrugated waveguides or open mirror transmission lines. Because tradit...
متن کاملExact Closed-Form Solution for Vibration Analysis of Truncated Conical and Tapered Beams Carrying Multiple Concentrated Masses
In this paper, an exact closed-form solution is presented for free vibration analysis of Euler-Bernoulli conical and tapered beams carrying any desired number of attached masses. The concentrated masses are modeled by Dirac’s delta functions which creates no need for implementation of compatibility conditions. The proposed technique explicitly provides frequency equation and corresponding mode ...
