A Two-Port Model for Antennas in an Arbitrary Environment

May 1, 2014
Author(s)
Jason B. Coder, John M. Ladbury, Mark Golkowski
We present an improved model for characterizing fundamental antenna parameters based on the concept of a passive realizable two-port network. The proposed model is consistent with circuit theory based approaches and allows for quantitative description and

INTERNATIONAL COMPARISON OF KU-BAND STANDARD GAIN HORN CHARACTERIZATION

April 11, 2014
Author(s)
Jeffrey R. Guerrieri, David R. Novotny, Michael H. Francis, Jason B. Coder, Joshua A. Gordon
International comparison of antenna measurement results between national measurement laboratories supports interoperability of communication equipment in today’s world market. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is the pilot National

On the Use of Phase Data When Conducting an Extrapolation Measurement

November 1, 2013
Author(s)
Jason B. Coder, David R. Novotny, Michael H. Francis, Jeffrey R. Guerrieri
The extrapolation measurement technique has been used with the three antenna method for more than 40 years, to determine absolute antenna gain and polarization data. The critical part of the extrapolation technique is an insertion loss measurement that is

Exploiting dimensionality and defect mitigation to create tunable microwave dielectrics

October 23, 2013
Author(s)
Nathan D. Orloff, C H. Lee, T Birol, J A. Mundy, V. Goian, R. Haislmaier, E. Vlahos, Y. Kim, J. D. Brock, Y Zhu, R. Uecker, V. Gopalan, S. Kamba, X X. Xi, D A. Muller, I. Takeuchi, James C. Booth, C. J. Fennie
The miniaturization and integration of frequency-agile microwave circuits—tunable filters, resonators, phase shifters and more—with microelectronics offers tantalizing device possibilities, yet requires thin films whose dielectric constant at GHz

Using a Laser Tracker to Actively Coordinate the Motion of a 3m Industrial Robot to Within 50 Microns: An ongoing effort to accurately determine and correct positioning errors.

October 1, 2013
Author(s)
David R. Novotny, Joshua A. Gordon, Jason B. Coder, Jeffrey R. Guerrieri, Michael H. Francis
We are using industrial-grade robotics guided by a metrology-grade laser tracker to perform antenna calibrations at mmWave frequencies. We are using a 3 m-reach robot to spherically scan a milli-meter Wave (mmWave) probe around an antenna under test (AUT)

On the Link Between Insertion Loss and Lower Bound of Efficiency

August 9, 2013
Author(s)
Levon Barsikyan, Jason Coder, Mark Golkowski, John M. Ladbury
We investigate the effect of chamber loss on the recently developed 2-port antenna model and the associated method of determining antenna efficiency. The loss in the reverberation chamber was controlled using microwave absorbing foam creating four

Introduction to Special Issue Honoring Dr. Clayton R. Paul

August 1, 2013
Author(s)
Christopher L. Holloway
Dr. Paul’s unique insight into the topics covered in these five papers and in many other areas in EM and EMC, will be missed. We are all tremendously grateful to Dr. Paul. He was invaluable to us personally and to many others in promoting the understanding
