Download or read book Application of Geometrical Optics to the Design and Analysis of Microwave Antennas written by F. Sheppard Holt and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The basic concepts of geometrical optics together with the additional assumption that lead to the 'geometrical optics approximation' are described here. The eikonal equation is derived and the relationship of exact electromagnetic theory in the limit as wavelength approaches limit of 0 to geometrical optics is made evident. The application of the 'geometrical optics approximation' to phase analysis and synthesis is described and an example of synthesis is presented. The concept of power flow in ray tubes is used to obtain approximations to power distributions in the antenna aperture, in the focal region, and in the far field. Ray analysis is used to determine those feed locations in the focal region that will most nearly collimate the far-field rays that lie in certain desirable planes. The Theorem of Malus is used to formulate the equal path length law and applications are given. Focal surfaces (or caustics) relative to a rectilinear congruence are defined and then used to present a geometrical optics description of the focal region. The equations of the focal surfaces of a paraboloid receiving a plane wave 20 degrees off-axis are calculated and photographs of three-dimensional models of the focal surfaces are shown.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until recently, three principal classes had been known in the electrical cir cuitry. They were as follows: 1) The lumped-constant circuit, which should be called a zero-dimensional circuit, in the sense that the circuit elements are much smaller in size as compared with the wavelength in all three spatial directions. 2) The distributed-constant circuit, which should be called a one-dimensional circuit, in the sense that the circuit elements are much smaller than the wavelength in two directions but comparable to the wavelength in one di rection. 3) The waveguide circuit, which should be called a three-dimensional circuit, in the sense that the circuit elements are comparable to the wavelength in all three directions. The principal subject of this book is the analysis and design (synthesis) theories for another circuit class which appeared in the late 1960s and became common in the 1970s. This new circuit class is 4) the planar circuit, which should be called a two-dimensional circuit, in the sense that the circuit elements are much smaller in size as compared with the wavelength in one direction, but comparable to the wavelength in the other two directions.

Download or read book Geometric Optics on Phase Space written by Kurt Bernardo Wolf and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-07-21 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Symplectic geometry, well known as the basic structure of Hamiltonian mechanics, is also the foundation of optics. In fact, optical systems (geometric or wave) have an even richer symmetry structure than mechanical ones (classical or quantum). The symmetries underlying the geometric model of light are based on the symplectic group. Geometric Optics on Phase Space develops both geometric optics and group theory from first principles in their Hamiltonian formulation on phase space. This treatise provides the mathematical background and also collects a host of useful methods of practical importance, particularly the fractional Fourier transform currently used for image processing. The reader will appreciate the beautiful similarities between Hamilton's mechanics and this approach to optics. The appendices link the geometry thus introduced to wave optics through Lie methods. The book addresses researchers and graduate students.

This book was released on 2001-09-06 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electromagnetic Scintillation describes the phase and amplitude fluctuations imposed on signals that travel through the atmosphere. The two volumes of Electromagnetic Scintillation will constitute a modern reference and comprehensive tutorial, treating both optical and microwave propagation and integrating measurements and predictions at each step of the development. This first volume deals with phase and angle-of-arrival measurement errors, accurately described by geometrical optics and will be followed by a second volume on weak scattering. In this book, measured properties of tropospheric and ionsopheric irregularities are reviewed first. Electromagnetic fluctuations induced by these irregularities are then estimated for a wide range of applications.

Download or read book Focused Beam Methods written by John W. Schultz and published by John Schultz. This book was released on 2012-10-15 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Determining the intrinsic microwave properties of materials is important for a variety of applications ranging from antenna and electronic circuit design to remote sensing to electromagnetic interference mitigation. A number of methods exist for characterizing intrinsic properties of materials at microwave frequencies, including transmission lines, resonant cavities, and impedance analysis. The use of free-space measurement methods has become commonplace among microwave material characterization laboratories due to its ease of use and reasonable accuracy. While some free-space facilities exist that can characterize down to 500 MHz, the method is most useful for characterizing materials from 2 GHz through millimeter waves. This book is designed to acquaint engineers and scientists with the theory and practice of using microwave focused beam systems for free-space characterization of materials.
