Abstract In this paper Substrate Integrated Waveguide-based filtenna operating at Ku band is proposed. The model is designed on a low loss dielectric substrate having a thickness of 0.508 mm and comprises of shorting vias along two edges of the substrate walls. To realize a bandpass filter, secondary shorting vias are placed close to primary shorting vias. The dimension and position of the vias are carefully analyzed for Ku band frequencies. The model is fabricated on Roger RT/duroid 5880 and the performance characteristics are measured. The proposed model achieves significant impedance characteristics with wider bandwidth in the Ku band. The model also… More >

Abstract A low-profile ultra-wideband (UWB) band-stop frequency selective surface (FSS) is designed for S-, C-, X- and Ku-bands communication applications. The FSS is constructed by using square and circular loop elements printed on the top and bottom sides of the RO3210 substrate. The FSS has been designed to reduce the electromagnetic interference (EMI) as well as to mitigate the harmful effects of electromagnetic radiation on the human body caused by different radio devices. The dimension and size of the UWB FSS have been reduced to 0.12 λ × 0.12 λ and 90%, respectively, as compared to the reported literature. The other… More >

Abstract This study aims to explore the effect of liquid film thickness on the electrohydrodynamic-driven instability of the interface separating two horizontal immiscible liquid layers. The fluids are confined between two electrodes and the light and less conducting liquid is overlaid on the heavy and more conducting one. Direct Numerical Simulations (DNSs) are performed using a front tracking/finite difference scheme in conjunction with Taylor-Melcher leaky dielectric model. For the range of physical parameters used here, it is shown that for a moderately thick lower liquid layer, the interface instability leads to formation of several liquid columns and as a result of… More >
