Scattering from Time-Modulated Transmission-Line Loads: Theory and Experiments in Acoustics

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Matthieu Francis Malléjac

Scattering wave systems that are periodically modulated in time offer many new degrees of freedom to control waves in both the spatial and frequency domains. Such systems, albeit linear, do not conserve frequency and require the adaptation of the usual the ...

Combining thermal insulation and mobile communication in buildings: influence of laser-treated glazing on microwave propagation

Josef Andreas Schuler, Luc Burnier, Jérémy Jacques Antonin Fleury, Héloïse Ludivine Delaporte

With the purpose of reducing the heating energy in buildings, it is common practice to install energy-efficient windows to increase the thermal insulation of a façade. These insulating glass units (IGIJ) include a thin silver coating acting as an infrared ...

A Closed Time-Reversal Cavity for Electromagnetic Waves in Transmission Line Networks

Mario Paolone, Marcos Rubinstein, Zhaoyang Wang, Reza Razzaghi

A closed time-reversal (TR) cavity has been considered a purely theoretical concept whose experimental realization was assumed to be impossible. In this article, we demonstrate that it is, in fact, possible to realize a closed TR cavity using a network of ...

Terminal Characteristics Measurements and Analysis of the Three-Phase Active Front End Converter Building Block

Drazen Dujic, Marko Petkovic

The safe and reliable operation of modern power system imposes the need to describe and estimate the system stability through impedance-admittance measurement and identification. The integration and operation of medium voltage equipment in existing infrast ...

The Upper Bound of the Speed of Propagation of Waves along a Transmission Line

Marcos Rubinstein

According to theory, once certain conditions are fulfilled, current and voltage pulses propagate along ideal transmission lines with the speed of light. One can reach such a conclusion only when the conductors are assumed to be perfectly conducting, which ...

Efficient wavelength conversion of exchange magnons below 100 nm by magnetic coplanar waveguides

Dirk Grundler, Ping Che

Exchange magnons are essential for unprecedented miniaturization of GHz electronics and magnon-based logic. However, their efficient excitation via microwave fields is still a challenge. Current methods including nanocontacts and grating couplers require a ...
