On the excitation of a closely spaced array by a line source
نویسنده
چکیده
An infinite row of periodically spaced, identical rigid circular cylinders is excited by an acoustic line source, which is parallel to the generators of the cylinders. A method for calculating the scattered field accurately and efficiently is presented. When the cylinders are sufficiently close together, Rayleigh–Bloch surface waves, which propagate energy to infinity along the array are excited. An expression is derived which enables the amplitudes of these surface waves to be computed without requiring the solution to the full scattering problem.

On the Optimum Directivity of Uniformly Spaced Broadside Arrays of Parallel Half-Wave Dipoles (RESEARCH NOTES)
The nominal directivity for uniformly spaced broadside parallel half-wave dipoles associated with a uniform excitation is evaluated. The amplitude distribution for an optimized directivity is then obtained for different numbers of elements with the separations between the dipoles as a variable. The optimum and nominal directivities are compared for different spacings of the elements. While thes...
متن کاملHeat Transfer from a Tube Bank in Cross Flow in a Duct
An experimental investigation on heat transfer coefficient is presented from three horizontal tubes in a vertical array in a duct for 500<ReD<6000. A mass transfer measuring technique based on psychrometry chart is used to determine heat transfer coefficient. The diameter of the tubes is 11 mm each spaced 40 mm apart and in-line pitch ratio varies 
in the range 0.055<D/W<0.22. The experimen...

متن کاملDevelopment a New Technique Based on Least Square Method to Synthesize the Pattern of Equally Space Linear Arrays
Using the sampled data of a desired pattern is a common technique in pattern synthesizing of array factor (AF) of antenna arrays. Based on the obtained data matrix, Least Square Method (LSM) is used to calculate the exciting coefficient of array elements. The most important parameter, which involves the accuracy and complexity of calculation, is the sampling rate of the desired pattern. Classic...
متن کاملPhased array antenna using MEMS phase shifter
This article presents a phased array antenna employing MEMS phase shifter. The proposed phased array antenna consists of eight square patch antennas operating at 10.4 GHz with a bandwidth of 400 MHz. Feed line for each patch passes through a MEMS phase shifter realized by a series of bridges above the transmission line. The distance between the bridge and the transmission line underneath it is ...
