VORTEXT: The Hard-backed Screen
نویسندگان
چکیده
If a document is written using a computer then it obviously makes sense for it to be read on the same medium. But how will the ordinary man-in-the-street react to this? How will he react to sitting down at a terminal instead of browsing through bookshelves? How will he react to scanning a screenful of text rather than feeling the ‘physicalness’ of a real book? What facilities will he expect? What facilities will he want? This paper is the result of three and a half years research using VORTEXT — VictORias TEXT reading system — a unique interface which begins to explore the limits, possibilities (and pitfalls!) of extending the ‘real book’ metaphor across from its traditional paper medium to its future computerized form.

Development of A Compact and Low Profile Cavity Backed Slot Antenna Using Microstrip Gap Waveguide Technology
Proof of concept of a cavity backed slot antenna based on inverted microstrip gap waveguide (IMGW) technology is presented. Since the antenna is operating based on the first resonating mode of the cavity, it is more compact compared to the ordinary cavity backed slot antennas in which the second cavity mode is used for radiation. Furthermore, the proposed antenna element introduces lower lo...

متن کاملAccurate Analysis of Dielectric Backed Planar Conducting Layers of Arbitrarily Shaped in a Rectangular Waveguide
The characteristics of dielectric backed planar conducting layers of arbitrarily shaped in a rectangular waveguide are calculated by means of coupled integral equation technique (CIET) which accurately takes higher order mode interactions. Equivalent structures for the accurate analysis whole structure are introduced in which magnetic surface currents are identified as the unknowns at the apert...

متن کاملDesign and Development of High Gain, Low Profile and Circularly Polarized Cavity-backed Slot Antennas Using High-order Modes of Square Shaped Substrtae Integrated Waveguide Resonator
In In this paper, two low profile, single fed cavity backed slot antennas providing a circularly polarized (CP) wave are introduced. One of the antennas presents a right-handed CP (RHCP) wave, while the other one offers a left handed CP (LHCP) wave. The proposed antennas consist of a square shaped Substrtae Integrated Waveguide (SIW) cavity incorporatng two couples of radiating slots to radiate...
