Book Description
The propagation of electromagnetic waves in a horizontally stratified layer of gyrotropic medium is discussed. Derivation of a comprehensive representation for magneto-ionic coupling coefficients allows interpretation of the physical significance of the coupling. Introduction of an invariant quantity for an inhomogeneous medium becomes an important guide for numerical solutions of the wave equation. Numerical results of magneto-ionic coupling coefficients are presented. Based on region properties, characteristic wave types are defined: for the isotropic region, linearly polarized waves are used; for the anisotropic region, elliptically polarized waves generally are applied. (Author).

Numerical Solution of Full-wave Equation with Mode-coupling
Author: Yuji Inoue
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Electromagnetic waves
Languages : en
Pages : 50
Book Description
A new method for the numerical solution of the wave equation governing the propagation of electromagnetic waves in a horizontally stratified, inhomogeneous, anisotropic layer is described. The wave equation is a homogeneous set of four linear differential equations of the first order. In the computer calculation, all singularities of the wave equation are removed in practical cases and a proper step-size based on the gradients of the medium properties is programmed automatically. The multiplicative nature of the solutions facilitates the procedure. Modification of solutions from one height to another is expressed in explicit form on the assumption that the propagation tensor varies linearly with height in each step of integration. In the mathematical development, matrix operations are extensively used in order to achieve a general representation. Four independent solutions of the wave equation are derived. During an ordinary integration for an inhomogeneous medium, a degradation occurs inevitably in the degree of linear independence among special solutions. This cause is analyzed. To obtain a complete set of special solutions with good linear independence, a particular device is developed for general applications. This method has been programmed for computer calculation by an IBM 7090. The resultant wave fields and wave polarizations for the independent modes are shown for a model ionosphere. The resultant wave is described as a 'scrambling' of four characteristic waves. The 'scrambling' state is visualized at each height. (Author).

Plurality-count Diversity Combining for Fading M-ary Transmissions
Author: John N. Pierce
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Alphabets
Languages : en
Pages : 38
Book Description
The performance of a plurality-count diversity combiner for fading M-ary transmissions is analyzed, and calculated error probabilities are presented graphically for alphabet sizes of 2, 8, and 32. The performance is shown to be within 3 dB of that of an optimum square-law combiner for moderate alphabet sizes when there is no restriction on the allowable number of diversity branches. It is shown that a worthwhile saving in transmitted power can be effected by using nonbinary alphabets with plurality-count combining for the transmission of binary data. The availability of extra information from the combiner for use with error-correction is discussed.
