The electromagnetic properties of fiber-reinforced laminated composite are studied and optimized here, with the fibers in the structure are organized in a periodic way. The laminate is consist of multiple layers with the fibers in each layer periodically arranged and bind together by the matrix which can be epoxy or ceramics etc. A number of fibers are embedded into one periodic cell and bind together to form a fiber bundle for wave absorption enhancement. The electromagnetic wave scattering properties of this composite are studied in detail with different structural and electromagnetic parameters. The constrained optimization by linear approximations is applied for optimization the reflection and transmission properties of the structure. The finite-difference time-domain method is applied in this article for the numerical investigations. Short Gaussian pulse is used as the source for the time domain simulation, and a Fourier transformation is then applied to get the field distribution and the reflection/transmission coefficients in a wide frequency band. Various numerical results are presented with detailed discussions.

The article introduces an automatic synthesis method for on-chip transformer from electromagnetic (EM) simulations. Using this method, a transformer library, parametric layout and scalable model are generated quickly, then a fast search through the transformer space produces an optimal design. We used this method to design transformer for common wireless application. The synthesis method of transformer includes various constraints such as inductance, quality factors, and coupling coefficients to ensure that the synthesis results meet expectations, and the accuracy deviation is within 5%.

Due to the increase of signal bandwidth in the current fifth-generation (5G) communication, the strong memory effects of the power amplifier (PA) seriously deteriorate the linearity of the system, while traditional digital predistortion (DPD) algorithms do not work well in this scenario. In this paper, a cascaded Memory Polynomial-Neural Network (MP-NN) model is proposed to model the PAs with strong memory effects. By including prior information, the input of the neural network is changed from input signals over a period of time to the basis functions of input signals. In this way, the training process converges faster and achieves good modeling accuracy. Experimental results on a 3.2-3.8 GHz Doherty PA show that the proposed model outperforms the traditional MP model, the adjacent channel power ratio (ACPR) performance is improved from -36.7dBc to-48.8dBc

This paper presents a simple method for determining the width of the injection line when measuring the transfer impedance of coaxial cable by line injection method. In line injection test of coaxial cable, copper strip or copper foil with a certain width is commonly used as the injection line, and the reflection coefficient of the outer circuit is less than 0.1 by adjusting the width of the copper strip or copper foil. In this paper, the outer circuit model of the injection line-coaxial cable shielding layer is established, and the width of the injection line with the different thickness of the dielectric layer and the different relative dielectric constants is obtained by simulation software. Then, the function of the injection line width to the cable radius, the thickness of the dielectric layer and the relative dielectric constants is obtained by curve fitting based on the simulation data. Finally, it is verified that the reflection coefficient of the outer circuit with the injection line width determined by the given function meets the requirements of IEC 62153.4-6 through simulation.

Land clutter data is a key part in radar signal processing algorithm design. Measured land clutter data is important to radar users, but usually not enough for radar signal simulation. In this work, we measure the scattering of a typical ground object sample. Then we use generative adversarial network to learn measured land clutter data, and generate more data which can be applied to further radar signal simulation. Numerical simulations verify the validity of such method.

With the extensive investment of wind turbine, it is significant to study the reliability and lifetime estimation model of its core components. Considering the effect of different failure sites on the remaining lifetime, the response of the converter at failure sites is studied. It is found that die attach solder fatigue and DBC (Direct Bonding Copper) solder fatigue, which happen frequently during the serving time, have different effects on thermal loads. A modified Cauer-type thermal model is proposed according to the failure sites. Using a modified lifetime model, Remaining lifetime of the DFIG (Doubly Fed Induction Generator) converter is calculated under different health conditions and failure sites. Reliability analysis is very important to the health management of converter.
