Download or read book A Limited scan Antenna Comprised of a Microwave Lens and Phased array Feed written by Robert V. McGahan and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Limited-scan antennas are finding increasing use in satellite communications and airport approach radars. Earlier attempts to achieve limited scan involved the use of parabolic lenses, zoning, and movable or dual-focus feeds. In the method described here, the main beam is scanned electronically by using a circular-arc phased array. The microwave lens is designed so that its back face satisfies the scanning condition. The beam is focused by shaping the front face of the lens to meet the required focusing condition and by varying the phase propagation of the lens. Two of the lenses studied were dielectric-loaded. A waveguide lens designed to scan in one dimension yielded experimental results that were good agreement with the theoretical predictions. Representative plots, and computer-generated farfield patterns of two topographically unique cases, are given.

Download or read book Modern Lens Antennas for Communications Engineering written by John Thornton and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-03-06 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to present the modern design principles and analysis of lens antennas. It gives graduates and RF/Microwave professionals the design insights in order to make full use of lens antennas. Why do we want to write a book in lens antennas? Because this topic has not been thoroughly publicized, its importance is underestimated. As antennas play a key role in communication systems, recent development in wireless communications would indeed benefit from the characteristics of lens antennas: low profile, and low cost etc. The major advantages of lens antennas are narrow beamwidth, high gain, low sidelobes and low noise temperature. Their structures can be more compact and weigh less than horn antennas and parabolic antennas. Lens antennas with their quasi-optical characteristics, also have low loss, particularly at near millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths where they have particular advantages. This book systematically conducts advanced and up-to-date treatment of lens antennas.
Download or read book Concept Study of a Multiple Beam Lens Antenna with an Internal Phase Shift Mask written by Daniel T. McGrath and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new antenna architecture has been investigated to assess its usefulness for limited scan systems. It consists of a passive lens with a few small subarrays spaced evenly across its focal surface. Between the lens and the focl surface is a phase shift layer, or 'mask', comprised of oppositely-facing planar arrays interconnected by phase shifters (similiar to a phased array lens). The mask redirects a focusing wave from an arbitrary angle onto one of the subarrays. It is shown that a system with only 19 small subarrays, and a mask containing about 4500 elments could provide complete earth coverage with as many as 19 simultaneous 0.3 deg beams. The pattern quality of those beams is good, provided that no two are steered to within a few beamwidths of each other. Keywords include: Microwave lens, Lens antennas, Multiple-beam antennas, Electronically-scanned antenna, and Satellite communications.
Download or read book History of Wireless written by T. K. Sarkar and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2006-01-30 with total page 683 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Important new insights into how various components and systems evolved Premised on the idea that one cannot know a science without knowing its history, History of Wireless offers a lively new treatment that introduces previously unacknowledged pioneers and developments, setting a new standard for understanding the evolution of this important technology. Starting with the background-magnetism, electricity, light, and Maxwell's Electromagnetic Theory-this book offers new insights into the initial theory and experimental exploration of wireless. In addition to the well-known contributions of Maxwell, Hertz, and Marconi, it examines work done by Heaviside, Tesla, and passionate amateurs such as the Kentucky melon farmer Nathan Stubblefield and the unsung hero Antonio Meucci. Looking at the story from mathematical, physics, technical, and other perspectives, the clearly written text describes the development of wireless within a vivid scientific milieu. History of Wireless also goes into other key areas, including: The work of J. C. Bose and J. A. Fleming German, Japanese, and Soviet contributions to physics and applications of electromagnetic oscillations and waves Wireless telegraphic and telephonic development and attempts to achieve transatlantic wireless communications Wireless telegraphy in South Africa in the early twentieth century Antenna development in Japan: past and present Soviet quasi-optics at near-mm and sub-mm wavelengths The evolution of electromagnetic waveguides The history of phased array antennas Augmenting the typical, Marconi-centered approach, History of Wireless fills in the conventionally accepted story with attention to more specific, less-known discoveries and individuals, and challenges traditional assumptions about the origins and growth of wireless. This allows for a more comprehensive understanding of how various components and systems evolved. Written in a clear tone with a broad scientific audience in mind, this exciting and thorough treatment is sure to become a classic in the field.
