The authors discuss two types of exciting modes in a rectangular-to-radial waveguide transformer for radial line slot antennas (RLSAs). One is the rotating-mode gene a crossed slot in a radial ...

In this paper, a rectangular dielectric rod antenna fed by an air-substrate parallel strip line is proposed. The dielectric rod has a compact and regular structure, which is easy to fabricate. The ...

Based on classical small deflection plate theory, the governing equation of functionally graded (FG) plates in thermal environment is derived by using Hamilton’s principle. Closed-form analytical ...
