Xingye Fan, Ruozhou Li, Jing Yan, Yuming Fang, Ying Yu,jing.yan@njupt.edu.cn,ying_yu_001@163.com

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2021, Volume 22, Issue 9,   Pages 1270-1276 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2000278

Abstract: A tunable stepped-impedance resonator using is demonstrated. Two resonant frequencies at 3.367 and 7.198 GHz are realized and can be continuously tuned by external applied voltages. Continuous tunable ranges of 52 and 210 MHz have been achieved at a particularly low driving voltage of 14 V, which shows good agreement with the simulation results. The voltage-induced hysteresis phenomenon is also investigated. This device also has a low insertion loss of −2.9 and −4 dB for the two resonant frequencies and the return losses are less than −21.5 dB. This work provides a new protocol to realize a tunable frequency for communication systems.

Parul DAWAR, N. S. RAGHAVA, Asok DE

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2017, Volume 18, Issue 11,   Pages 1883-1891 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1601193

Abstract: We present the design and analysis of a novel modified H-shaped split ring resonator (SRR) metamaterial. It has negative permeability and permittivity characteristics with multi-band resonance for the X, Ku, and Ka frequency bands. Different configurations of the patch antenna have been analyzed with different orientations and positions of the metamaterial. Optimized performance was achieved with the new shape of the metamaterial antenna with an appreciable 9 dB gain, 77 GHz bandwidth, 100% radiation efficiency, and 65% reduction in active area. The second-order fractal metamaterial antenna achieves high min-iaturization on the order of 1/21. This is truly a boon in the communications world, as a sharp beam with smaller physical di-mensions is urgently required.

Diversity Glass Antennas for Tri-Band WiFi Applications Article

Peng Fei Hu, Kwok Wa Leung, Kwai Man Luk, Yong Mei Pan, Shao Yong Zheng

Engineering 2023, Volume 23, Issue 4,   Pages 157-169 doi: 10.1016/j.eng.2022.09.011

Abstract:

This paper investigates two novel polarization- and pattern-diversity glass dielectric resonator antennas (DRAs), both of which are for tri-band (2.4, 5.2, and 5.8 GHz) wireless fidelity (WiFi) applications. It also investigates what type of diversity antenna is most suitable for WiFi router applications by comparing the two DRAs, along with a new space-diversity glass DRA. These three diversity glass DRAs are also compared with a commercial space-diversity monopole pair to benchmark the performance of the glass DRA in WiFi router applications. In our polarization-diversity antenna, a double-port feeding scheme is developed to excite different DRA modes. The frequencies of the DRA modes are tuned by using a stepped DRA. For the pattern-diversity design, a stacked DRA is introduced to broaden the bandwidth for both the conical and broadside radiation modes. All three of the new diversity antennas were fabricated and measured to verify the simulations. In our experiment, the bit error rate (BER) of the three diversity glass antennas and the reference space-diversity monopole antenna was also measured, and the results are compared and discussed. It is found that the polarization-diversity omnidirectional DRA has the most stable BER among the three.

New method to determine optimum impedance of fault current limiters for symmetrical and/or asymmetrical faults in power systems None

Mahmoud MODARESI, Hamid LESANI

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2018, Volume 19, Issue 2,   Pages 297-307 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1601689

Abstract: To select the type and value of the impedance of fault current limiters (FCLs) for power network designers, we introduce a new method to calculate the optimum value of FCL impedance depending on its position in the network. Due to the complexity of its impedance, the costs of both real and imaginary parts of FCL impedance are considered. The optimization of FCL impedance is based on a goal function that maximizes the reduction of the fault current while minimizing the costs. While the position of FCL in the network has an effect on the calculation of the optimum impedance value, the method for selecting FCL location is not the focus of this study. The proposed method for optimizing FCL impedance can be used for every network that has symmetrical and/or asymmetrical faults. We use a 14-bus IEEE network as an example to explain the process. The optimum FCL impedance used in this network is calculated by considering the vast range of costs for both real and imaginary parts of FCL impedance.

Fuzzy impedance control of an electro-hydraulic actuator with an extended disturbance observer Regular Papers-Research Articles

Ming-jie LI, Jian-hua WEI, Jin-hui FANG, Wen-zhuo SHI, Kai GUO

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2019, Volume 20, Issue 9,   Pages 1221-1233 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1800155

Abstract: In this paper, we deal with both velocity control and force control of a single-rod electro-hydraulic actuator subject to external disturbances and parameter uncertainties. In some implementations, both velocity control and force control are required. Impedance control and an extended disturbance observer are combined to solve this issue. Impedance control is applied to regulate the dynamic relationship between the velocity and output force of the actuator, which can help avoid impact and keep a proper contact force on the environment or workpieces. Parameters of impedance rules are regulated by a fuzzy algorithm. An extended disturbance observer is employed to account for external disturbances and parameter uncertainties to achieve an accurate velocity tracking. A detailed model of load force dynamics is presented for the development of the extended disturbance observer. The stability of the whole system is analyzed. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed control strategy has not only a high velocity tracking performance, but also a good force adjustment performance, and that it should be widely applied in construction and assembly.

A Thermo-Tunable Metamaterial as an Actively Controlled Broadband Absorber Article

Xiao-Chang Xing, Yang Cao, Xiao-Yong Tian, Lingling Wu

Engineering 2023, Volume 20, Issue 1,   Pages 143-152 doi: 10.1016/j.eng.2022.04.028

Abstract:

Metamaterials have attracted increasing attention in recent years due to their powerful abilities in manipulating electromagnetic (EM) waves. However, most previously reported metamaterials are unable to actively control full-band EM waves. In this paper, we propose a thermo-tunable broadband metamaterial (T-TBM) using paraffin-based composites (PD-Cs) with different phase transition temperatures. Active control of the T-TBM reflection loss peaks from low to high frequency is realized by manipulating the solid–liquid state of the PD-Cs at different phase transition temperatures. The absorption peak bandwidth (where the reflection loss value is less than −30 dB) can be changed, while the broad bandwidth absorption (where the reflection loss value is less than −10 dB) is satisfied by adjusting the temperature of the T-TBM. It is shown that the stagnation of the phase transition temperature of the PD-Cs in the T-TBM provides a time window for actively controlling the EM wave absorption response under different thermal conditions. The device has a broad application prospect in the fields of EM absorption, intelligent metamaterials, multifunctional structural devices, and more.

Integrated 60-GHz miniaturized wideband metasurface antenna in a GIPD process Research Articles

Hai-yang XIA, Jin-can HU, Tao ZHANG, Lian-ming LI, Fu-chun ZHENG

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2020, Volume 21, Issue 1,   Pages 174-181 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1900453

Abstract: We propose a miniaturized wideband metasurface antenna for 60-GHz antenna-in-package applications. With the glass integrated passive device manufacturing technology, we introduce a coplanar-waveguide-fed (CPW-fed) ring resonator to char-acterize the material properties of the glass substrate. The proposed antenna is designed on a high dielectric constant glass substrate to achieve antenna miniaturization. Because of the existence of gaps between patch units compared with the conventional rec-tangular patch in the TM10 mode, the radiation aperture of this proposed antenna is reduced. Located right above the center feeding CPW-fed bow-tie slot, the metasurface patch is realized, supporting the TM10 mode and antiphase TM20 mode simultaneously to improve the bandwidth performance. Using a probe-based antenna measurement setup, the antenna prototype is measured, demonstrating a 10-dB impedance bandwidth from 53.3 to 67 GHz. At 60 GHz, the antenna gain measured is about 5 dBi in the boresight direction with a compact radiation aperture of 0.31λ0×0.31λ0 and a thickness of 0.06λ0.

Strategic Study of CAE 2004, Volume 6, Issue 2,   Pages 61-66

Abstract:

Based on the electromagnetic model for four-port resonant filter, the optical characteristics of several filters with rectangular cascade resonators have been numerically simulated by utilizing two-dimensional FDTD method. The relationship between the number of cascade resonators and the filtering features is analyzed. The narrow-band filter with four cascade resonators implemented on GaAlAs/GaAs planar waveguide is designed and fabricated. The experiment result shows the half-width of filtering spectrum for the chip is about 10 nm, which coincides well with that of the simulation.

Characteristic of the equivalent impedance for an Article

Zhi-zhong TAN, Hong ZHU, Jihad H. ASAD, Chen XU, Hua TANG

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2017, Volume 18, Issue 12,   Pages 2070-2081 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1700037

Abstract: Considerable progress has been made recently in the development of techniques to determine exactly two-point resistances in networks of various topologies. In particular, a general resistance formula of a non-regular × resistor network with an arbitrary boundary is determined by the recursion-transform (RT) method. However, research on the complex impedance network is more difficult than that on the resistor network, and it is a problem worthy of study since the equivalent impedance has many different properties from equivalent resistance. In this study, the equivalent impedance of a non-regular × RLC network with an arbitrary boundary is studied based on the resistance formula, and the oscillation characteristics and resonance properties of the equivalent impedance are discovered. In the RLC network, it is found that our formula leads to the occurrence of resonances at the boundary condition holding a series of specific values with an external alternating current source. This curious result suggests the possibility of practical applications of our formula to resonant circuits.

An adjustable anti-resonance frequency controller for a dual-stage actuation semi-active vibration isolation system Research Articles

Bo Zhao, Weijia Shi, Bingquan Wang, Jiubin Tan,shiweijia@hit.edu.cn

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2021, Volume 22, Issue 10,   Pages 1390-1401 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2000373

Abstract: In the semiconductor manufacturing industry, the dynamic model of a controlled object is usually obtained from a frequency sweeping method before motion control. However, the existing isolators cannot properly isolate the disturbance of the inertial force on the platform base during frequency sweeping (the frequency is between 0 Hz and the natural frequency). In this paper, an for a system (DSA-SAVIS) is proposed. This system has a significant anti-resonance characteristic; that is, the vibration amplitude can drop to nearly zero at a particular frequency, which is called the anti-resonance frequency. The proposed controller is designed to add an adjustable anti-resonance frequency to fully use this unique anti-resonance characteristic. Experimental results show that the closed-loop transmissibility is less than −15 dB from 0 Hz to the initial anti-resonance frequency. Furthermore, it is less than −30 dB around an added anti-resonance frequency which can be adjusted from 0 Hz to the initial anti-resonance frequency by changing the parameters of the proposed controller. With the proposed controller, the disturbance amplitude of the payload decays from 4 to 0.5 mm/s with a reduction of 87.5% for the impulse disturbance applied to the platform base. Simultaneously, the system can adjust the anti-resonance frequency point in real time by tracking the frequency sweeping disturbances, and a good vibration isolation performance is achieved. This indicates that the DSA-SAVIS and the proposed controller can be applied in the guarantee of an ultra-low vibration environment, especially at frequency sweeping in the semiconductor manufacturing industry.

Transparent Thermally Tunable Microwave Absorber Prototype Based on Patterned VO2 Film Article

Zhengang Lu, Yilei Zhang, Heyan Wang, Chao Xia, Yunfei Liu, Shuliang Dou, Yao Li, Jiubin Tan

Engineering 2023, Volume 29, Issue 10,   Pages 198-206 doi: 10.1016/j.eng.2022.10.005

Abstract:

Transparent microwave absorbers that exhibit high optical transmittance and microwave absorption capability are ideal, although having a fixed absorption performance limits their applicability. Here, a simple, transparent, and thermally tunable microwave absorber is proposed, based on a patterned vanadium dioxide (VO2) film. Numerical calculations and experiments demonstrate that the proposed VO2 absorber has a high optical transmittance of 84.9% at 620 nm; its reflection loss at 15.06 GHz can be thermally tuned from –4.257 to –60.179 dB, and near-unity absorption is achieved at 523.75 K. Adjusting only the patterned VO2 film duty cycle can change the temperature of near-unity absorption. Our VO2 absorber has a simple composition, a high optical transmittance, a thermally tunable microwave absorption performance, a large modulation depth, and an adjustable temperature tuning range, making it promising for application in tunable sensors, thermal emitters, modulators, thermal imaging, bolometers, and photovoltaic devices.

Record-Breaking Frequency of 44 GHz Based on the Higher Order Mode of Surface Acoustic Waves with LiNbO3/SiO2/SiC Heterostructures Article

Jian Zhou,Dinghong Zhang,Yanghui Liu,Fengling Zhuo,Lirong Qian,Honglang Li,Yong-Qing Fu,Huigao Duan

Engineering 2023, Volume 20, Issue 1,   Pages 112-119 doi: 10.1016/j.eng.2022.05.003

Abstract:

Surface acoustic wave (SAW) technology has been extensively explored for wireless communication, sensors, microfluidics, photonics, and quantum information processing. However, due to fabrication issues, the frequencies of SAW devices are typically limited to within a few gigahertz, which severely restricts their applications in 5G communication, precision sensing, photonics, and quantum control. To solve this critical problem, we propose a hybrid strategy that integrates a nanomanufacturing process (i.e., nanolithography) with a LiNbO3/SiO2/SiC heterostructure and successfully achieve a record-breaking frequency of about 44 GHz for SAW devices, in addition to large electromechanical coupling coefficients of up to 15.7%. We perform a theoretical analysis and identify the guided higher order wave modes generated on these slow-on-fast SAW platforms. To demonstrate the superior sensing performance of the proposed ultra-high-frequency SAW platforms, we perform micro-mass sensing and obtain an extremely high sensitivity of approximately 33151.9 MHz·mm2·μg−1, which is about 1011 times higher than that of a conventional quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) and about 4000 times higher than that of a conventional SAW device with a frequency of 978 MHz.

A new variable-mode control strategy for LLC resonant converters operating in a wide input voltage range Article

Hui-pin LIN,Xiao-guang JIN,Liang XIE,Jin HU,Zheng-yu LU

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2017, Volume 18, Issue 3,   Pages 410-422 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1600029

Abstract: This paper proposes a new variable-mode control strategy that is applicable for LLC resonant converters operating in a wide input voltage range. This control strategy incorporates advantages from full-bridge LLC resonant converters, half-bridge LLC resonant converters, variable-frequency control mode, and phase-shift control mode. Under this control strategy, different input voltages determine the different operating modes of the circuit. When the input voltage is very low, it works in a full-bridge circuit and variable frequency mode (FB_VF mode). When the input voltage rises to a certain level, it shifts to a full-bridge circuit and phase-shifting control mode (FB_PS mode). When the input voltage further increases, it shifts into a half-bridge circuit and variable frequency mode (HB_VF mode). Such shifts are enabled by the digital signal processor (DSP), which means that no auxiliary circuit is needed, just a modification of the software. From light load to heavy load, the primary MOSFET for the LLC resonant converter can realize zero-voltage switching (ZVS), and the secondary rectifier diode can realize zero-current switching (ZCS). With an LLC resonant converter prototype with a 300 W rated power and a 450 V output voltage, as well as a resonant converter with 20–120 V input voltage, the experiments verified the proposed control strategy. Experimental results showed that under this control strategy, the maximum converter efficiency reaches 95.7% and the range of the input voltage expands threefold.

A Multi-wavelength Star Optical Network Reusing All Channel Wavelengths Three Times and Its Features

Gan Chaoqin

Strategic Study of CAE 2002, Volume 4, Issue 10,   Pages 84-89

Abstract:

In this paper, a novel multi-wavelength star optical network reusing all channel wavelengths three times is proposed by the method of “（Distributed Architecture) + (Return Link) + (Wavelength Group)”. In this scheme, by interconnecting four conventional star couplers and reusing all channel wavelengths three times, both the maximum number of supportable nodes and the maximum throughput of the network are all up to four times as many as that of conventional WDM star network. Utilizing bidirectional transmissions in a single fiber, half fibers can be saved under the same number of supportable nodes. Making use of the distributed architecture, the anti-destructibility of network is drastically raised. All these advantages of the network efficiently overcome the disadvantages of conventional WDM star network.
