The microwave power transmission is an approach for wireless power transmission. As an important component of a microwave wireless power transmission systems, microwave rectennas are widely studied. A rectenna based on a microstrip dipole antenna and a microwave rectifier with high conversion efficiency were designed at 2.45 GHz. The dipole antenna achieved a gain of 5.2 dBi, a return loss grea...

Public concerns over possible adverse effects of microwave radiation emitted by mobile phones on health are increasing. To evaluate the intensity of oxidative stress, cognitive impairment and inflammation in brain of Fischer rats exposed to microwave radiation, male Fischer-344 rats were exposed to 900 MHz microwave radiation (SAR = 5.953 x 10(-4) W/kg) and 1800 MHz microwave radiation (SAR = 5...

A rapid and efficient method for the synthesis of bis-thiazolidinones has been achieved by pseudo five-component reaction of aldehydes, ethylenediamine and thioglycolic acid in the presence of nano-NiZr4(PO4)6 as catalyst under microwave irradiation. Nano-NiZr4(PO4)6 has been characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), v...

Microwave assisted extraction technique was employed to extract pectin from citron peel. Box-Behnken design was applied to investigate the influence of irradiation time, microwave power and pH on the yield and DE of pectin. The finding indicated that the optimal conditions for the maximum yield of pectin (30.71%) were achieved at irradiation time of 3 min, microwave power of 700 W and pH of 1.5...

5(6)-Carboxy-rhodamine 110 isomers were rapidly synthesized by condensation of 3-aminophenol and trimellitic anhydride using microwave irradiation as heating method. After esterification of the two isomers, separation and hydrolyzation provided target products,5-carboxy-rhodamine 110 and 6-carboxy-rhodamine 110, in high yields. The results shows microwave irradiation can effectively reduce ...

  Salmonella     species show different disease syndromes and host specificity, according to their antigenic profile. Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium is one of the most frequently isolated serovar from foodborne outbreaks. Poultry meat has been identified as one of the principal foodborne sources of Salmonella. In this study, the effect of microwave treatment of chicken meat samples...

Microwave radiometric method is discussed as applied to monitoring of rice growth. The following questions are considered in the paper. Modeling of microwave emission from rice fields. Experimental studies of microwave emission from rice fields. Rice biomass retrieval from microwave radiometric measurements. Examples of monitoring of rice growth with airborne and ground based radiometers.

This paper presents some apprilcations of neural networks in the microwave modeling. The applications are related to modeling of either passive or active structures and devices. Modeling is performed using not only simple multilayer perceptron network (MLP) but also advanced knowledge based neural network (KBNN) structures. Keywords–Neural network, modeling, microwave, microstrip gap, microwave...
