A novel classification method is proposed for radar targets, in which Gershgorin disks are utilized. It can be seen that the new method will be better than the eigenvalue method for the classification of radar targets. Three examples are considered: a spherical target, a horizontal trough, and a symmetric target.<>

It was demonstrated that with a proper choice of excitation coefficients it is possible to realize shaped beam patterns with the use of resonant compound coupling slots. The design of a breadboard antenna employing such coupling elements is described. An antenna consisting of eight end-fed resonant radiating waveguides with 14 longitudinal broadwall slots each was designed at 5300 MHz. Antenna patterns were recorded at a farfield test range. The elevation and azimuth patterns obtained from the measurements are found to be in very good agreement with the corresponding theoretical results. The copolarized and cross-polarized measured elevation patterns at 5300 MHz are shown. The cross-polarized signal level is more than 40 dB below the beam peak.<>

A hybrid finite-element formulation has been proposed for characterization of the scattering and radiation properties of microstrip patch antennas and arrays residing in a cavity (Jin and Volakis, 1991). The technique combines the finite-element (FE) and boundary integral (BI) methods to formulate a system for the solution of the fields at the aperture and those within the substrate. In the previous implementation, rectangular bricks/patches were used for a discretization of the cavity volume/superstrate. These elements inherently limit the applicability of the method to rectangular shape patches and cavities, and to specific feed structures. To avoid such restrictions on the geometrical adaptability of the FE-BI method, the authors consider its implementation using tetrahedral/triangular elements for discretizing the cavity volume/aperture. The tetrahedral elements permit excellent geometrical adaptability. The characterization (scattering/radiation) of nonrectangular patches and broadband radiators is considered. The method's ability to model practical shape and corporate feeds is demonstrated and results are presented for the antenna/array radar cross section in and out of the operating band.<>

An encapsulated dipole array has been developed for use as an aircraft beacon interrogator antenna, the high gain open planar array. The interrogator antenna provides a highly shaped beam which provides elevation coverage to greater than 50 degrees elevation over the frequency range of 1026.5 to 1095 MHz. In addition, three channels of performance are provided (sum, difference and sidelobe suppression). The design procedure and resulting performance are presented.<>

A full-wave analysis using the Wiener-Hopf procedure and the generalized scattering matrix technique, referred to as WH/GSMT, is presented. A canonical problem where the scattering of an obliquely incident plane wave by a perfect electric conducting half plane embedded in multilayer dielectric slabs is solved by way of the Wiener-Hopf formulation. The GSMT is used to build the transverse resonance relation in a self-consistent manner. Since all the scattering matrix elements are written in closed form, the method presented is very efficient in terms of both CPU time and storage space. Also, since no basis functions have to be assumed prior to the analysis, the results are quite reliable. Another important feature of this method is that it can provide good physical insight into the problems being considered because the result gives the complex amplitudes of individual parallel plate waveguide modes in each region. This method is especially suitable for transmission lines of intermediate width, with finite lateral ground planes or coupled strip line and slotline.<>

The cross-correlation coefficient for two closely spaced, terminated, monopole antennas is calculated using an existing general theoretical approach. The effect of the antenna terminations, as compared to open-circuit conditions, is to allow mutual coupling. The principal effects of including the mutual coupling are closer antenna spacings for a given cross-correlation coefficient, and a related difference between the physical antenna separation and the electrical antenna separation.<>

This method provides precise measuring capability without moving an antenna under test and a transmitting antenna.
