Controlled experiments were conducted to examine the effect of fog on signal propagation in wireless communication and radar links operating in millimeter wavelengths. The experiments were carried out in a fog laboratory to verify theoretical results obtained from Liebe’s model. Attenuation and phase shifts of millimeter wave (mmW) radiation were measured, at different fog density characterized by the visibility distance and its water vapor content. Utilizing a vector network analyzer (VNA) enabled us to examine the actual atmospheric attenuation and the phase shift caused by the fog retardation. The experimental results demonstrate good agreement with the simulations even for very low visibility in highly dense fog. The study can be used to estimate link budget of mmW wireless links, including those allocated for the fifth generation (5G) of cellular networks.

The spectrum of millimeter waves lay above 30GHz. The band between 30GHz up to 300GHz is called Extremely High Frequencies (EHF). This wide spectrum is relatively free of users and have recently became relevant for realizations of wireless communications an radars, including the fifth generation (5G) of cellular communications. Due to the short wavelengths, the propagation of millimeter waves can be analyzed using quasi-optical ray techniques. We present a multi-ray analysis of millimeter wave wireless link in the presence of multipath. The analysis is applicable for indoor and outdoor links and considers reflections from walls and buildings. It is shown that line-of-sight is not necessarily required in scenarios where multiple reflections exist as in long corridors, canyons and tunnels. The theoretical results are verified experimentally with a link in the W-band (94GHz).

A new implementation of a beam-steering transmitarray is proposed based on the tiled array architecture. Each pixel of the transmitarray is manufactured as a standalone unit which can be hard-wired for specific transmission characteristics. A set of complementary units, providing reciprocal phase-shifts, can be assembled in a prescribed spatial phase-modulation pattern to perform beam steering and beam forming in a broad spatial range. A compact circuit model of the tiled unit cell is proposed and characterized with full-wave electromagnetic simulations. Waveguide measurements of a prototype unit cell have been carried out. A design example of a tiled 10 × 10-element 1-bit beam-steering transmitarray is presented and its performance benchmarked against the conventional single-panel, i.e., unibody, counterpart. Prototypes of the tiled and single-panel C-band transmitarrays have been fabricated and tested, demonstrating their close performance, good agreement with simulations and a weak effect of fabrication tolerances. The proposed transmitarray antenna configuration has great potential for fifth-generation (5G) communication systems.

Abstract The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) parameters (g factor g i , and hyperfine structure constants A i , with i = x, y, z) and local structures for Cu2+ centers in M2Zn(SO4)2·6H2O (M = NH4 and Rb) are theoretically investigated using the high order perturbation formulas of these EPR parameters for a 3d 9 ion under orthorhombically elongated octahedra. In the calculations, contribution to these EPR parameters due to the admixture of d-orbitals in the ground state wave function of the Cu2+ ion are taken into account based on the cluster approach, and the required crystal-field parameters are estimated from the superposition model which enables correlation of the crystal-field parameters and hence the studied EPR parameters with the local structures of the Cu2+ centers. Based on the calculations, the Cu–H2O bonds are found to suffer the axial elongation ratio δ of about 3 and 2.9% along the z-axis, meanwhile, the planar bond lengths may experience variation ratio τ (≈3.8 and 1%) along x- and y-axis for Cu2+ center in (NH4)2Zn(SO4)2·6H2O and Rb2Zn(SO4)2·6H2O, respectively. The theoretical results show good agreement with the observed values.

The flow field in an inertial impactor was studied experimentally with a water model by means of a flow visualization technique. The influence of such parameters as Reynolds number and jet-to-plate distance on the flow field was determined. The Navier-Stokes equations describing the laminar flow field in the impactor were solved numerically by means of a finite difference relaxation method. The theoretical results were found to be in good agreement with the empirical observations made with the water model.

Good Agreement

According to several known experiments, an increase of the incoming flow air content can increase the hydrofoil lift coefficient. The presented theoretical study shows that such increase is associated with the decrease of the fluid density at the cavity surface. This decrease is caused by entrainment of air bubbles to the cavity from the surrounding flow. The theoretical results based on such explanation are in a good agreement with the earlier published experimental data for NACA0015.

AbstractMathematical models have been developed to evaluate the dynamic behavior of two solar air collectors: the first one is equipped with a V-porous absorber and the second one with a U-corrugated absorber. The collectors have the same geometry, cross-section surface area and are built from the same materials, the only difference between them being the absorbers. V-corrugated absorbers have been treated in literature but the V-porous absorbers modeled here have not been very often considered. The models are based on first-order differential equations which describe the heat exchange between the main components of the two types of solar air heaters. Both collectors were exposed to the sun in the same meteorological conditions, at identical tilt angle and they operated at the same air mass flow rate. The tests were carried out in the climatic conditions of Bucharest (Romania, South Eastern Europe). There is good agreement between the theoretical results and experiments. The average bias error was about 7.75 % and 10.55 % for the solar air collector with “V”-porous absorber and with “U”-corrugated absorber, respectively. The collector based on V-porous absorber has higher efficiency than the collector with U-corrugated absorber around the noon of clear days. Around sunrise and sunset, the collector with U-corrugated absorber is more effective.

Abstract The possibility of cancelling self-excited vibrations of a mechanical system using parametric excitation is discussed. A two-mass system is considered, with the top mass excited by a flow-generated self-exciting force. The parameter of the connecting stiffness between the base mass and the foundation is a harmonic function of time and represents a parametric excitation. For such a system general conditions for full vibration cancelling are derived and presented. By means of numerical simulation the system is investigated for several sets of parameters. The theoretical results are found to be in very good agreement with the results obtained by simulation. Parameter variations show the extent of the parameter space where significant vibration cancelling can be achieved and illustrate possible applications.

Context. The continuously enhanced sensitivity of radioastronomical observations allows the detection of increasingly complex organic molecules. These systems often exist in a large number of isomers leading to very congested spectra. Aims. We explore the conformational space of 1,2-butanediol and provide sets of spectroscopic parameters to facilitate searches for this molecule at millimeter wavelengths. Methods. We recorded the rotational spectrum of 1,2-butanediol in the 59.6–103.6 GHz frequency region (5.03–2.89 mm) using a free-jet millimeter-wave absorption spectrometer, and we analyzed the properties of 24 isomers with quantum chemical calculations. Selected measured transition lines were then searched on publicly available ALMA Band 3 data on IRAS 16293-2422 B. Results. We assigned the spectra of six conformers, namely aG′Ag, gG′Aa, g′G′Ag, aG′G′g, aG′Gg, and g′GAa, to yield the rotational constants and centrifugal distortion constants up to the fourth or sixth order. The most intense signal belong to the aG′Ag species, that is the global minimum. Search for the corresponding 30x,30 − 29x,29 transition lines toward IRAS 16293-2422 B was unsuccessful. Conclusions. Our present data will be helpful for identifying 1,2-butanediol at millimeter wavelengths with radio telescope arrays. Among all possible conformers, first searches should be focused on the aG′Ag conformers in the 400–800 GHz frequency spectral range.
