It is well known that the solution of the diffusion equation for an electromagnetic field with a time harmonic term, e(sup iwt), is in the form of a traveling wave whose amplitude attenuates over distance into a conducting medium. As the attenuation is an increasing function of frequency, the high frequency components attenuate more rapidly than those of low ones upon entering a well conducting object. At the same time, the phase velocity of an individual component is also an increasing...

Fast amplitude variations due to atmospheric scintillation are the main concerns for the Deep Space Network (DSN) Ka-band downlink under clear weather conditions. A theoretical study of the amplitude scintillation variances for a finite aperture antenna is presented. Amplitude variances for weak scattering scenarios are examined using turbulence theory to describe atmospheric irregularities. We first apply the Kolmogorov turbulent spectrum to a point receiver for three different turbulent...

Resonances or near resonances are ubiquitous among the excited nonradial pulsation modes of variable stars and they must play an important role in determining their pulsational behavior. Here in a first step at nonlinear asteroseismology, we explore some of the consequences of resonances by means of the amplitude equation formalism. We show how parity and angular momentum constraints can be used to eliminate many of the possible nonlinear resonant couplings between modes (and multiplets of...

The ferroelectric reflectarray is a new type of scanning antenna under development for space and ground communications and radar applications at the NASA Glenn Research Center. The reflectarray offers tremendous cost, gain, and efficiency advantages in comparison to the state-of-the-art phased arrays, but there is an inherent intersymbol interference (ISI) problem with digital communication data streams processed through the array because of the way the reflectarray is operated. This...

The development of an instrumentation radar that uses a chirp waveform to achieve high range resolution is described. Such range resolution capability is required for two reasons: (1) to evaluate the response of targets to the operational waveforms used in high-performance radars; and (2) to obtain a means of separating the individual mechanisms that comprise the target scattering response to better understand the scattering process. This particular radar was efficiently constructed from a...

This thesis investigated a hybrid system for computing a position, scale, rotation invariant (PSRI) feature set. Specifically, the low order ordinary moments of a set of objects were optically calculated. This process required the production of computer generated holograms with amplitude transmittance. The detour phase hologram, a binary method, was used to produce the appropriate wavefronts of the a certain form. Each wavefront was imaged onto the object plane. The Fourier transform of the...

An improved method of measuring chromatic dispersion in an optical fiber or other device affords a lower (relative to prior such methods) limit of measurable dispersion. This method is a modified version of the amplitude-modulation (AM) method, which is one of the prior methods. In comparison with the other prior methods, the AM method is less complex. However, the AM method is limited to dispersion levels . 160 ps/nm and cannot be used to measure the symbol of the dispersion. In contrast, the...

The finite element method (FEM) is a numerical algorithm for solving second order differential equations. It has been successfully used to solve many problems in atomic and molecular physics, including bound state and scattering calculations. To illustrate the diversity of the method, we present here details of two applications. First, we calculate the non-adiabatic dipole polarizability of Hi by directly solving the first and second order equations of perturbation theory with FEM. In the...

A two-dimensional model of a constant-density diffusion-controlled reaction between unmixed species initially occupying adjacent half-spaces is formulated and analyzed. An axisymmetric viscous vortex field satisfying the Navier-Stokes equations winds up the interface between the species as they diffuse together and react. A flame-sheet approximation of the rapid reaction is made using a mixture fraction dependent variable. The problem was originally proposed by F. Marble, who performed a local...

"This paper focuses mainly on Bit Error Rate BER , Signal to Noise Ratio and different Rayleigh channels. We have designed four Rayleigh channels. This paper describes the comparative analysis of different digital modulation techniques like BPSK, QPSK, 8PSK, 16PSK and 16QAM for four Rayleigh channels which are designed. We also compare the convolution coding with different code rates i.e. 1 2, 1 3 and 2 3 code rate for various channels. Here we use MATLAB2009b software. by Parvesh Kumar...

The requirement for higher ultrasound resolution needed for early detection of breast tumors is to compensate distorted ultrasonic wavefronts. We have found that two types of algorithms are necessary to fully deaberrate ultrasonic waves in breast. One is a global algorithm for isotropic scattering, an example of which is time delay correction (TDC). In the last year we found that applying (TDC) type algorithms to Zn vitro breast data suppressed scattered energy and folded it into the target...

Propagation of seismic waves in the nearfield where rock rheology is demonstrably nonlinear raises unique difficulties. Nonlinearity arises primarily in two forms at intermediate to large strains: (1) nonlinear elasticity, and (2) amplitude-dependent attenuation. The proper representation of nonlinear constitutive equations for rocks in the regime is a potentially important ingredient of quantitative source models. We have shown previously that nonlinear one-dimensional wave propagation can...

Vertical plane response of submersible vehicles in the proximity of a free surface in deep water is evaluated using a potential flow, strip theory solver. Two criteria, that are periscope submergence, and sail broaching are used to quantify the response. These criteria combined with the vehicle's response amplitude operators in regular sinusoidal waves along with a statistical description of the seaway lead to an assessment of an overall operability index for the vehicle. This thesis presents a...

Circadian activity rhythms that have been eliminated by lesions of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) can be restored by fetal SCN grafts. Partial lesions of the host allow simultaneous expression of both donor and host rhythm. Because partial SCN ablation produces characteristic changes in activity rhythms that are similar to those that occur with age, including shortened period, reduced amplitude, and fragmentation, we investigated the extent to which fetal SCN grafts may be expressed by an...

The current-voltage relation within narrow auroral current sheets is examined through the use of high-resolution data from the high altitude Dynamics Explorer 1 satellite. The north-south perpendicular electric field and the east-west magnetic field are shown for three cases in which there are large amplitude, oppositely directed paired electric fields and narrow current sheets. These data are shown to indicate that there is a linear 'Ohm's law' relationship between the current density and the...

During 1986, most of our efforts have concerned a better understanding of seismic sources and propagation on local and regional sismograms and m sub b optimum determination. The influence of source depth on local seismograms (10 - 60 km) has been carried on by using synthetic seisograms. Pg and Sg waves amplitudes are less influenced than Rg waves amplitudes by depth variations. Rg waves amplitudes are clearly decreasing when depth increases. We need to apply such a discriminant on real cases....

Reduction of noise and vibrations within structural systems has been a long standing problem. Recent studies have indicated that waveguide absorbers have been effective in the reduction of noise and vibrations over a broad frequency range. A waveguide absorber is a structure along which vibrational waves can travel. If the waveguide absorber is treated with an energy dissipation scheme, the amplitudes of the waves will decrease as they travel along the waveguide absorber. the test structure...

The development of the free electron laser (FEL) as a source of coherent radiation continues toward the fulfillment of its potential for high power, high efficiency and short wavelength. New experiments toward fulfillment of the FEL's potential present new phenomenon to be studied by theoreticians and experimentalists. Two of these phenomenon in short wavelength FELs are the shift in phase velocity resonance and the reduction in gain. The first part of this thesis presents an argument for the...

An experimental program has been conducted to study interactions between acoustics waves and two types of non-uniform average flow occurring in solid propellant rockets. Measurements in a resonance tube confirmed the existence of an energy loss associated with interactions between a longitudinal acoustic field and an average flow entering through a lateral boundary. The measured loss was approximately five times as large as that predicted by a simple one-dimensional analysis. However, due to...

In a fading channel, bit error rate for frequency-shift- keying signals is determined predominantly by the envelope amplitude fading statistics of the signal. The narrowband envelope amplitude distributions are measured from the TREX04 data (as a function of frequency) using M-sequence signals centered at 17 kHz with a 5 kHz bandwidth. The results do not fit the Rayleigh, Rician, Nakagami m-distributions. In contrast, we find that the data are fitted well by a K-distribution. We also analyze...

Methods to filter and to analyze measured data are described and the numerical results are validated with the generated data. A lowpass filter is used to eliminate the noise of the measured data. The methods of zero crossing, sine function and spectral analysis are applied to compute the amplitudes, periods and phase angles. The numerical results of the measured data are compared with those of different methods. When the measured data are sinusoidal, the results analyzed with the three methods...
