In this paper, an ultra-wideband metamaterial absorber is designed and simulated. The proposed absorber is planar and low profile. It is made of a copper sheet coated with two dielectric layers. Each unit cell of the metamaterial structure is composed of multiple metallic split rings, which are patterned on the top and middle boundaries of the dielectrics. The designed absorber utilizes differe...

Novel tetrachiral honeycomb structures are evaluated for the first time from the vibroacoustic point of view. A numerical method based on Bloch wave approximations for Finite Element models of the unit cells is applied to simulate the pass-stop band characteristics of these cellular solids. Experimental modal analysis and modal densities are measured on honeycomb panels and sandwich plate, and ...

The design of an optimized near-perfect reconstruction (NPR) type trans-multiplexer has been proposed. Cosine modulation has been used to design the synthesis and analysis sections of the trans-multiplexer. The design of transmultiplexer was reduced to design of single low-pass prototype FIR filter which is designed using variable window function (Kaiser, Cosh and DolphChebyshev). An unconstrai...

In this paper, a band-pass filter (BPF) based on split-ring resonator (SRR) using 3-D printing technique for C-band applications is introduced. The proposed designed to operate at frequency of 3.9 GHz. An innovative the substrate with size 24 x 1.1 mm3 PLA dielectric material implemented. copper sheet thickness 0.1 mm printed upper and lower faces substrate. First, SRR band stop (BSF) introduce...

A compact Ultra wideband (UWB) antenna with bandnotched characteristic is presented in this paper. It has compact size of 30 mm x 31mm and has ultra wide band operation. A ‘C’ shaped slot was introduced to achieve band notch function from 4.8 GHz to 6 GHz to avoid interference from WLAN. The proposed antenna has ultra wide band frequency range from 3 GHz to 11.5 GHz for return loss below -10 dB...

In this article, we present a substrate-integrated waveguide-based band-pass filter with wide stop-band rejection property. This band-pass filter is made up of two substrate-integrated waveguide cavities, which couple to each other by an aperture on their common waveguide side wall. By using the empirical formula [19] for obtaining the equivalent rectangular waveguide dimensions, the substrate ...

The capacity to rapidly suppress a behavioral act in response to sudden instruction to stop is a key cognitive function. This function, called reactive control, is tested in experimental settings using the stop signal task, which requires subjects to generate a movement in response to a go signal or suppress it when a stop signal appears. The ability to inhibit this movement fluctuates over tim...
