A monopolar patch antenna with a V-shaped slot for car-to-car (C2C) and wireless local area network (WLAN) communications is presented in this paper. To widen the impedance bandwidth of antenna, techniques adding shorting pin are applied to an equilateral triangular patch. By properly placing pins on patch, two operating modes, i.e., TM10 TM20, obtained. The presence can generate additional TM11 mode. These three resonances found frequency resulted wideband characteristic. proposed operate...
Abstract Distributed optical fibre sensors deliver a map of physical quantity along an fibre, providing unique solution for health monitoring targeted structures. Considerable developments over recent years have pushed conventional distributed towards their ultimate performance, while any significant improvement demands substantial hardware overhead. Here, technique is proposed, encoding the interrogating light signal by single-sequence aperiodic code and spatially resolving information...

Noise models for both single-pulse and coded Brillouin optical time-domain analyzers (BOTDA) are established to quantify the actual signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) enhancement provided by pulse coding at any fiber position in operating condition. Simulation experimental results show that polarization noise spontaneous scattering (SpBS) signal beating could highly penalize performance of coded-BOTDA, depending on code type interrogated position.

When studying the spatial resolution and Brillouin frequency shift (BFS) uncertainty in optical time domain analysis (BOTDA) system with a hotspot, people usually focuses on point best performance hotspot neglect huge error around it. The is caused by gain spectrum (BGS) contributed both ambient segment, which distorted from standard Lorentzian curve. Due to distortion of BGS, estimated BFS near shifted actual value results along fiber. BGS can be double-peak or single-peak curve that...

Symmetrical apodization technique of the chirped fiber Bragg grating has advantages suppressing sidelobes reflection spectra and smoothing curves group delay.
