Lossy conductors are not perfectly electric conductors and their finite conductivity needs to be carefully accounted for in the accurate solution of electromagnetic problems. Traditionally, surface integral equations (SIEs) are used to approximately describe the problems, but we use volume integral equations (VIEs) to exactly formulate the problems by treating the lossy conductors as dielectric-like...
Tunability analysis based on electromagnetic modeling and simulation is performed for a miniaturized patch antenna loaded with self-biased magnetic films. The antenna includes a lossy dielectric substrate and layered thin-ferrite-film superstrate above microstrip. The structure is of multiscale and multimaterial feature and the system matrix may not be well-conditioned if the problem is described...
Microwave scattering from snow is difficult to model due to the complexity and heterogeneity of natural snow. In this paper, we developed a multi-layer, multi-scattering model based on recent theoretical advances in snow and surface modeling. In the proposed multi-layer model, Matrix Doubling method is used to account for scattering from each snow layer; and Advanced Integral Equation Model (AIEM)...
The ERS-1/2 wind scatterometer (WSC) has a resolution cell of about 50 km but provides a high repetition rate (less than four days) and makes measurements at multiple incidence angles. In order to estimate effective surface reflectivity (related to soil moisture content) over bare soil using this instrument, an original methodology based on the integral equation model (IEM) is presented that takes...
