Abstract:
A new design of' a dual-frequency dual-polarized square microsh'ip antenna fed
along the diagonal, embedded with a square slot having three extended stubs for
frequency tuning, is introduced. The proposed antenna was fabricated using a
standard photolithographic method and the antenna was tested using the HP
3510(:; Vector Network Analyser. The antenna is capable of generating dual
resonant frequencies with mutually perpendicular polarizations and broad
radiation pattern characteristics. Such dual-frequency designs find wide
applications in personal mobile handsets combining GSM and CDS 1800 modes,
and applications in which different frequencies are used for emission and reception
such as personal satellite communications and cellular network systems.

Abstract:
An attempt is made to determine the relative power
distribution in a step-index parabolic cylindrical waveguide (PCW) with
high deformation across the direction of propagation. The guide is
assumed to be made of silica. The scalar field approximation is employed
for the analysis under which a vanishing refractive-index (RI) difference
in the waveguide materials is considered. Further, no approximation for
folds- is used in the analytical treatment. Due to the geometry of such
waceguides, PCWs lose the well-defined modal discreteness, and a kind
of mode bunching is observed instead, which becomes much more
prominent in PCWs with high bends. However, with the increase in
cross-sectional size, the mode-bunching tendency is slightly reduced. The
general expressions for power in the guiding and nonguiding sections are
obtained, and the fractional power patterns in all of the sections are
presented for PCWs of various cross-sectional dimensions. It is observed
that the confinement of power in the core section is increased for PCWs
of larger cross-sectional size. Moreover, a fairly uniform distribution of
power is seen over the modes having intermediate values of propagation
constants

precisely so that the convergence of the linearizer should be assured lot
this Letter a delay control circuit is presented. It is a delay lock loop
(ULL) with it modified early-lute gate and can he easily applied to a
DSP implementation. The proposed DLL circuit is applied to an adaptive
linearizer with the use of a polynomial predistorter, and the simulalion
for a 16-QAM signal is performed. The simulation results show that
the proposed DLL eliminates the delay between the reference input signal
and the delayed feedback signal of the linearizing circuit perfectly,
so that the predistorter polynomial coefficients converge into the optimum
value and a high degree of linearization is achieved
