A multi-objective evolutionary algorithm that explicitly introduces the management of a single or multiple constraints on solutions an electromagnetic problem is presented in this paper. The proposed strategy based upon modified genetic which evaluates strength solution by considering both match to desired performance (objectives) as well satisfaction specific requirements imposed design (constraints). key issue represented adaptive and its influence selective pressure algorithm. procedure...
A robust technique for reading moving chipless tags exploiting the inverse synthetic aperture radar data processing is presented. The procedure takes advantage from known tag movement to improve detection capability by integrating several received signals. implicit of proposed scheme that background measurement, collected in absence tag, can be easily performed before passes front reader antenna. allows a significant increase interrogation distance and, more importantly, it greatly improves...
This work addresses the emerging need for investigating micro- and nano-devices by performing Impedance Spectroscopy with high-sensitivity yet at high bandwidth. To this goal a new circuital architecture has been implemented that overcomes limitations of classic transimpedance topology noise maximum operating frequency trade-off as well input capacitance stability concerns. Thanks to two channel modulation/amplification/demodulation structure embedded into feedback loop, loop gain all...
The surface quality of high gloss polished steel sheets with respect to ‘orange peel’ is studied. This motivated by the fact that workpieces are ranked solely on visual appearance finished surfaces according observed degree orange peel. Here, quantify peel, topographies industrial samples acquired means phase shifting interferometry, from which various roughness parameters calculated. These related qualitative aspects using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. Two were identified as...
A phased array architecture based on uniformly overlapped subarrays allows to obtain a radiation pattern with low sidelobes for an angle-limited scan.
