The problem of diffraction of TE polarized EM waves by an open dielectric waveguide with a nonlinear inhomogeneous filling is under consideration. In such problems a nonlinear eigenvalue problem for a system of differential equations is arised. For the numerical solution a method based on the solution of the auxillary Cauchy problem is proposed. Numerical results are presented.

To enhance the performance of the 5G mm-wave antenna array, an antenna array based on the T-slot antenna is proposed. It is demonstrated that the 3D radiation pattern can be optimized when the T-slot antenna is adopted. It is also shown that compared to the normal rectangular slot antenna array, the radiation pattern of the T-slot antenna array is more suitable for mobile phone application because the T-slot antenna has more uniform antenna gain.

We present the design of novel metasurfaces capable of generating converging vortex beams carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) at microwave frequencies. Isotropic unit cells are used for constructing such metasurfaces, which allows full phase control of 0 - 2 $pi$ with high efficiency. Two typical metasurfaces are designed for the generation of converging beams carrying OAM modes l = 1,2. The proposed metasurfaces are polarization-insensitive and can be applied to both linearly or circularly polarized waves.

A novel honeycomb transmit-array lens (TAL) constructed from hexagonal metamaterial unit cell is presented for generating the convergent orbital angular momentum (OAM) beams. Compared with the most common square-lattice arrays, the proposed honeycomb TAL can provide a wider operating band, a larger phase-shift range and stable frequency responses as the function of angle and polarization of the incident EM wave. The simulated results verify the effectiveness of the proposed design.

Bridge vibration monitoring is very important since many bridges are constructed every year. To obtain full range, all weather and real-time bridge vibrations, a mm-wave radar is devised and used for monitoring the micro-deformation of these bridges. The measured results show that the designed mm-wave radar can well monitor the vibrations of the highway bridges with a super-resolution and high precision. Thus, the designed radar can be used for natural disaster monitoring, such as bridge monitoring, dam monitoring, debris flow monitoring applications.

To facilitate the node-based meshless method on numerical modeling and simulation of open-domain structures and radiation problems, we introduce and present the perfectly matched layer (PML) absorbing boundary condition (ABC) to the radial point interpolation method (RPIM) in this work. A numerical experiment of point resource radiating in 2D free space is employed to analysis electromagnetic wave absorbing performance of the proposed PML ABC formulation.

To obtain better performance and lower error localization algorithms, this paper proposes an algorithm based on Orthogonal Matching Pursuit (OMP) reconstruction and Basis Pursuit (BP) reconstruction algorithm for wireless sensor network node localization in combination with compressed sensing. These two algorithms both belong to the localization algorithm without ranging and meet three conditions when solving the problem of location algorithm which makes them more suitable for practical application. Compared with other existing range-free algorithms, such as the LSVM algorithm, the compressed sensing algorithm has better positioning performance. Therefore, the compressed sensing algorithm is a more reliable and practical positioning algorithm.

Integrating wireless technologies with implanted devices could enable important capabilities for medicine. However, existing wireless systems suffer from low efficiency of energy transmission from the human body owing to the mismatch between the dielectric properties of the body and that of freespace. We present an approach to enhance wireless transmission from the body by modifying the air-tissue interface with an electromagnetic grating. The grating enables the radiation of wave components otherwise trapped by total internal reflection into the far-field and increases the total power radiated into free-space space. We show in simulations that the grating can enhance transmission by a factor of 3 and propose methods for implementing such a device in a clinical setting.

Polarimetry of electromagnetic waves is important for molecular spectroscopy and high-data rate wireless communications in the terahertz frequency regime. Conventional bulk optical systems used to achieve this functionality have several drawbacks including scarcity of available materials, narrow bandwidth and low efficiency. To overcome these limitations, we employ metasurfaces with spatially changing broadband birefringence to attain the same functionality. We present a metasurface designed with birefringent resonators that are rotated to decompose a normally incident wave into its circularly polarized orthogonal components, namely left-handed circularly polarized (LHCP) and right-handed circularly polarized (RHCP) waves. On that basis, polarimetric information on the incident wave can be retrieved, including circular, elliptical and linear polarization states. This functionality is preserved over a simulated bandwidth of up to 76% which corresponds to the frequency region of 0.65 THz to 1.45 THz.
