CALCULATION OF TRANSITION PROCESSES IN LINEAR SYSTEMS AFTER SEQUENCE OF PULSE SIGNALS BY THE LAPLACE-PADE METHOD

Abstract

We consider one of the promising numerical methods of the inverse Laplace transform — the Laplace – Padé method, as well as its step-by-step modification, which allows one to increase the accuracy of the calculation of transients in linear circuits by breaking the integration interval into several segments and applying decision matching with continuity at the “junction” points function and its derivatives. Previously, this problem was solved when analyzing the impulse and transient characteristics of circuits such as low-pass and high-pass filters, band-pass and notch filters.

Abstract

Тhe research is focused on the development of hardware-and-software laboratory stands, software due to control them and laboratory operations manual aimed to studies and laboratory-based work undertaking. The aim of the research is to improve the efficiency of learning process of bachelor’s, Master’s degree and PhD students in the field of signal generation. Proposed technical equipment allows generating and analyzing both standard and complex radio signals. It also introduces students to the modern devices of signals forming and analysis. Result of the work is two hardware and software laboratory benches. The first is aimed to the studying of modern direct digital synthesizers (DDS). It based on the development board with 1508PL8T chip. The second is to the research of the spectral characteristics of modulated and unmodulated signals with the use of G4-RC2/150 as signals generator.

ON THE MINIATURIZATION OF CYLINDRICAL OMNI-DIRECTIONAL SLOTTED WAVEGUIDE ANTENNAS FOR WIRELESS APPLICATIONS

Abstract

Antennas are becoming crucial in an increasingly growing number of vital applications, particularly with the emergence of the 3G and 4G generations of communications. Point-to-multipoint configuration is a major interest nowadays; therefore antennas are designed for this purpose where efficiency, size, and cost play a decisive role. The common practice is to refer to the already existing antennas in the market for this sole purpose. Nonetheless, a major drawback of such solutions is that the aforementioned criteria are extremely hard to simultaneously optimize. The purpose of this project is to present a new configuration relying on the use of Slotted Circular Waveguide Antennas, which are initially used in Radar applications, as an ultimate alternative that allows drastically enhancing the ratio of performance versus cost. Moreover, the antenna will be remodeled and designed to function as an enhanced Circular Slotted Waveguide Antenna with optimized directional characteristics with gain above 10 dBi (to be considered as high gain). Simulation results were carried out at 2.4 GHz frequency and indubitably demonstrated high effectiveness in terms of directivity and high gain given a reduced cost, shape and size. A prototype was fabricated to measure its parameters and compare them with simulation results. It is still noteworthy to mention that these results matched with an elevated accuracy since the pattern simulated is meshed and modeled to a far extent taking into account all non-ideal characteristics.
