A coplanar wave guide (CPW) fed printed monopole antenna with reduced radiation hazard for mobile handset is presented. The antenna offers a bandwidth of 150MHz when printed on a substrate of dielectric constant (εr) 4.4 and thickness 1.6mm with an overall dimension of 0.41λg X 0.31λg.The printed metal strip in the back side of the monopole modifies the radiation pattern suitable for mobile han...

The reconfigurable micro strip antenna has the ability to vary its band width, operating frequency and radiation pattern. Radiation pattern of reconfigurable antenna has the to avoid the noise sources , increasing the gain and saving power by directing the ability to switch the pattern from one direction to another at common impedance , bandwidth and operating frequency . This means the pattern...

-This paper discusses the deployment of Genetic algorithm optimization method for synthesis of antenna array radiation pattern in adaptive beam forming. The synthesis problem discussed is to find the weights of the antenna array elements that are optimum to provide the radiation pattern with maximum reduction in the side lobe level. This technique proved its effectiveness in improving the perfo...

Antenna is a means for radiating or receiving or transmitting energy an antenna is used in an advanced wireless system is usually required to optimize the radiation energy in same direction and suppress it in others. A microstrip patch antenna, also referred to as patch antenna is a narrowband, widebeam antenna fabricated by etching the antenna element patch in metal trace bonded to an insulati...

This paper presents design of an alternating-phase fed single-layer slotted waveguide array for a sector shaped beam in the Eplane radiation pattern. A sector beam pattern is very effective for radar applications for detecting obstacles in a certain angular range without mechanical or electronic scanning. The sector shaped beam with 13 degree beam width is synthesized by a cascade of T-junction...

We wanted to discover novel chemotypes for 2 targets which lacked x-ray data, CCK2 and 11beta-HSD1. Our approach was to undertake ligand-based virtual screening using the molecular fields of active compounds as our template to define activity. Our hypothesis was that the field pattern of an active molecule describes its key binding features and molecules with a similar field have a high probabi...

This paper presents an overview of some measurement concepts across both COSMIC-FFP, an ISO standard (ISO/IEC 19761) for functional size measurement and Functional Complexity (FC), an entropy-based measure. It investigates in particular three metrological properties (scale, unit and scale type) in both of these measurement methods.

Directional emission from a slit surrounded by rectangular grooves on the exit surface in a conducting plane is investigated. An electromagnetic boundaryvalue problem dealing with a slit surrounded by rectangular grooves on the exit surface in a conducting plane is rigourously solved based on the Fourier transform, eigenfunction expansion, and mode-matching method. The radiation pattern from th...
