In this paper, the development and filter characteristic of photonic band-gap (PBG) structure and defected ground structure (DGS) are analyzed. The non-periodic structure has simpler structure, smaller size and smaller ripple compared to the periodic structure. Though the stop band of non-periodic structure is narrower, it can meet the application. What's more, C-shaped structure with two stop bands can realize selection in special frequency band. So it can meet the need of two stop bands.
The microstrip patch antenna is a low-profile robust planar structure. A wide range of radiation patterns can be achieved with this type of antenna and, due to the ease of manufacture, is inexpensive compared with other types of antennas. However, patch-antenna designs have some limitations such as restricted bandwidth of operation, low gain, and a potential decrease in radiation efficiency due to surface-wave losses. The PBG patch antenna shows significantly reduced levels of surface modes compared to conventional patch antennas, thus improving the gain and far-field radiation pattern. A general procedure is presented to determine the fields scattered by a periodic structure due to a complex excitation in terms of the structure's plane-wave response. Specifically, the scattered field from an electric line source over a semiinfinite metallo-dielectric photonic bandgap (PBG) material is described. An effective description for the artificial crystal's plane-wave response is used, consisting of angularly parameterized response functions. A methodology for analyzing the electromagnetic response of such a material to a nonplane-wave excitation is provided, whereby a general complex excitation is spectrally decomposed into an integral over a continuous spectrum of homogeneous and inhomogeneous plane waves. An analytic solution for the scattering of each plane wave by the PBG material halfspace is then utilized. The complete scattered field is given in a closed integral form, which is computed both numerically and in the asymptotic limit. The effect of the PBG crystal half-space on the scattered field due to an electric line source is presented for frequencies that correspond, for a normally incident plane wave, to a transmission bandgap, a transmission band edge, and an antireflecting plateau. The focusing effects and electric- and magnetic-wall behavior of the PBG crystal are demonstrated. The presented approach promotes both the physical understanding of PBG material systems and the efficiency of the numerically modeling of these systems at frequencies beyond the quasi-static limit of the traditional effective medium theories.
The microstrip patch antenna is a low-profile low cost robust planar structure. A wide practical range of can be obtain with this type of antenna and, due to the ease of manufacture, is inexpensive compared with other types of operation, low gain, and a potential decrease in radiation efficiency due do surface-wave losses. In this paper, a new type of high directivity PBG patch antenna is proposed. It has been demonstrated that take advantages of both the suppression of surface waves and high directivity.
The isotherm is an important feature of infrared satellite cloud images (ISCI), which can directly reveal substantial information of cloud systems. The isotherm extraction of ISCI can remove the redundant information and therefore helps to compress the information of ISCI. In this paper, an isotherm extraction method is presented. The main aggregate of clouds can be segmented based on mathematical morphology. T algorithm and IP algorithm are then applied to extract the isotherms from the main aggregate of clouds. A concrete example for the extraction of isotherm based on IBM SP2is described. Study of the result shows that this is a highly efficient algorithm. It can be used in feature extractions of infrared images for weather forecasts.
