Performance of Target Detection in Phased-MIMO Radars
In this paper, the problem of target detection in phased-MIMO radars is considered and target detection performance of phased-MIMO radars is compared with MIMO and phased-array radars. Phased-MIMO radars combine advantages of the MIMO and phased-array radars. In these radars, the transmit array will be partitioned into a number of subarrays that are allowed to overlap and each subarray transmit...
متن کاملFour Channel Transceiver Array for Functional Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy in the Human Visual Cortex at 9.4 T
Introduction: Functional magnetic resonance spectroscopy (fMRS) at ultra-high field (UHF) strength (≥7T) is a method to investigate the metabolism of the human brain during task induced stimulation [1] or pharmalogical challenge [2]. A region of special interest is the visual cortex which undergoes metabolic changes during visual stimulation [1]. The UHF thereby allows for increased spectral an...
متن کاملImproved homogeneity of the transmit field by simultaneous transmission with phased array and volume coil.
PURPOSE To improve the homogeneity of transmit volume coils at high magnetic fields (> or =4 T). Due to radiofrequency (RF) field/tissue interactions at high fields, 4 T to 8 T, the transmit profile from head-sized volume coils shows a distinctive pattern with relatively strong RF magnetic field B(1) in the center of the brain. MATERIALS AND METHODS In contrast to conventional volume coils at...
متن کاملتحلیل و طراحی تغییر دهنده فاز N - بیتی MEMS توزیع شده در باند Ka
Modern microwave and millimeter wave phased array antennas are attractive because of their ability to steer wave beams in space without physically moving the antenna element. A typical phased array antenna may have several thousand elements fed by a phase shifter for every antenna, which can steer the resulting array beam to different directions. Their low loss, low cost and lightweight phase s...
متن کاملDesign and comparison of two eight-channel transmit/receive radiofrequency arrays for in vivo rodent imaging on a 7 T human whole-body MRI system.
PURPOSE Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of rodents can be expected to be a growing application, particularly when translatory imaging research "from mouse to man" is envisioned. 7 T high-field human whole-body MR systems provide a powerful platform for high-resolution small animal imaging. For achieving adequate spatial resolution, dedicated radiofrequency coils have to be designed to provide ...
