slots of proper lengths close to the boundary of a circular
patch, and protruding one of the arc-shaped slots with a narrow
slit, the circular microstrip antenna can perform dual-hand CP
radiation using a single probe feed. Details of the antenna design

Abstract:
A novel dual frequency dual-polarized square microstrip
patch antenna embedded with a slot is presented. The proposed
antenna offers tunability of the frequency ratio between the two
frequencies by adjusting the slot dimensions. This configuration
also provides a size reduction up to -51 and 35% for the two modes
as compared to a square micro strip patch antenna
In this paper, a new directionally adaptive, learning based, single image super resolution method using
multiple direction wavelet transform, called Directionlets is presented. This method uses directionlets to
effectively capture directional features and to extract edge information along different directions of a set of
available high resolution images .This information is used as the training set for super resolving a low
resolution input image and the Directionlet coefficients at finer scales of its high-resolution image are
learned locally from this training set and the inverse Directionlet transform recovers the super-resolved
high resolution image. The simulation results showed that the proposed approach outperforms standard
interpolation techniques like Cubic spline interpolation as well as standard Wavelet-based learning, both
visually and in terms of the mean squared error (mse) values. This method gives good result with aliased
images also.

Abstract:
Dual frequency operation is achieved from a compact
microstrip antenna by loading a pair of narrow slots close to its radiating
edges. The two frequencies have parallel polarization planes and similar
radiation characteristics. The ratio between the two operating frequencies
can be tuned in the range (1.14-1. 24), which is much smaller than that
of similar designs. The above excellent radiation characteristics are
achieved along with an area reduction of - 75% compared to the
standard rectangular patch

Abstract:
The use of a split-ring resonator (SRR)-loaded waveguide for the design of a band-rejection filter with adjustable bandwidth is reported. The width of the stopband can be adjusted by suitably positioning the SRR array in the waveguide. The rejection band can be made very narrow by placing the array at the electric-field minimum. The stopband attenuation depends on the number of unit cells in the array.

The transient interaction between a refraction index grating

a photorefractive hologram is investigated. With a diffusion- and
photovoltaic-dominated carrier transport mechanism and carrier thermal
activation (temperature dependent) considered in Fe:LiNbO3 crystal, from
the standpoint of field-material coupling, the theoretical thermal fixing
time and the space-charge field buildup, spatial distribution, and temperature
dependence are given numerically by combining the band transport
model with mobile ions with the coupled-wave equation

The (Ba1-x Srx) (Nd1/2, Nb1/2) O3 ceramics have been prepared by the conventional
ceramic route for different values of x. Addition of a small amount of
CeO2(1 wt%) as a sintering aid increased the density of the samples. The structure
and microstructure of the sintered samples are studied by X-ray diffraction
and SEM methods. The dielectric properties of the samples are measured in the
microwave frequency region as a function of composition. The dielectric constant
decreases as x increases. The coefficient of thermal variation of resonant
frequency decreases as the Sr content increases and goes to the negative side.
The dielectric properties of (Ba1-x Srx) (Nd1/2, Nb1/2) O3 are in the range suitable
for application as dielectric resonators in microwave circuits

Abstract:
Microwave ceramic dielectric materials Ca5Nb2TiO12 and Ca5Ta2TiO12 have been prepared by a conventional solid-state
ceramic process. The structure was studied by X-ray diffraction and the dielectric properties were characterized at microwave
frequencies. The ceramics posses a relatively high dielectric constant, very low dielectric loss (Q5 x f > 30000GHz) and
small temperature variation of resonant frequency. These materials are potential candidates for dielectric resonator
applications in microwave integrated circuits. [DOI: 10. 1 143/JJAP.41.3834]
Dielectric ceramics based on solid solution phases of [RE1_x= REr]TiNb06, where REI_s = Nd, Pr, Sm and RE' = Dy, Gd and Y, were prepared by the conventional solid-state ceramic route for values of x. The ceramic samples are characterized by X-ray diffraction and microwave methods. Ceramics based on RE (Pr, Nd and Sm) belonging to aeschynite group shows positive value of Tf and those based on RE (Gd, Dy and Y) belonging to euxenite group show negative value of r f. The solid solution phases between the aeschynite and the euxenite group shows intermediate dielectric constant and r f values. The results indicate the possibility of tailoring the dielectric properties by varying the composition of the solid solution phases. The range of solid solubility of euxenite in aeschenite and aeschenite
in euxenite are different for different rare earth ions
Ceramic dielectric resonators in the BaO-RE2O3-TiO2 (RE = rare earth) system have been

dielectric constants increased with Bi addition whereas the 0 decreased. The temperature
coefficient of the resonant frequency improved with bismuth addition

Microwave dielectric ceramics based on GdTiNb,-,.Ta,O6 and Sml _.,Y,TiTa06 have been prepared by conventional solid state
method . The GdTiTaO6 and SmTiTaO6 have aeschenite structure with positive rr and GdTiNbO6 and YTiTaO6 have euxenite
structure with negative rr. The rr of the ceramics has been tuned by preparing solid solution phases between the aeschynites and
euxenites for a possible zero rr material . It is observed that GdTiNbt_YTa.,O6 undergoes a phase transition from aeschynite to
euxenite when x=0.75 and in Sml-,YxTiTa06 for x= 0.73. The microwave dielectric properties change abruptly near the transition
region . The rr value approaches zero near the phase transition region while the samples have poor sinterability and poor quality
factor . The unloaded quality factor, dielectric constant and the sign of rr of the solid solution phases are found to depend on the
average ionic radius of the rare earth ion in RE ,-5RE',TiTaO6. The boundary of the euxenite-aeschynite phase transition occurs at
an average ( RE) ionic radius of 0.915 A in Sm,_, Y,.TiTaO6 solid solution phases
