And that transferring the model to an equivalent circuit was possible to calculate. The characteristics of the system and the optimal conditions were analyzed, and the influence of the transmission efficiency for the Coupling factor and the Quality factor was discussed. The theory analysis and simulation in MATLAB show that the performance of the system can be optimized by adjusting the coupling factor between the transmitter cou- pling coils. Furthermore, the feasibility of this theory was proven by experiments. Thus, this paper provides a useful reference to improve the wireless power transmission for portable electronics.

There were four components of the system consist of the drive coil (Drive Coil), the transmit coil (TX Coil), the receiving coil (RX Coil) and the load coil (Load Figure 2.

Prerequisite: Currents through inductances, capacitances and resistances – 2nd year lab experiment, Department of Physics, University of Toronto, http://www.physics.utoronto.ca/~phy225h/currents-l-r-c/currents-l-c-r.pdf Introduction In the Prerequisite experiment, you studied LCR circuits with different applied signals. A loop with capacitance and inductance exhibits an oscillatory response to a disturbance, due to the oscillating energy exchange between the electric and magnetic fields of the circuit elements. If a resistor is added, the oscillation will become damped. 1 In this experiment, the LCR circuit will be driven at resonance frequencyωr = , when the LC transfer of energy between the driving source and the circuit will be a maximum.

    Quantitative Determination of the Mechanical Properties of Nanomembrane Resonators by Vibrometry In Continuous Light Fan Yang,∗ Reimar Waitz,y and Elke Scheer Department of Physics, Universit¨atKonstanz, 78464 Konstanz, Germany We present an experimental study of the bending waves of freestanding Si3N4 nanomembranes using optical profilometry in varying environments such as pressure and temperature. We introduce a method, named Vibrometry in Continuous Light (VICL) that enables us to disentangle the response of the membrane from the one of the excitation system, thereby giving access to the eigenfrequency and the quality (Q) factor of the membrane by fitting a model of a damped driven harmonic oscillator to the experimental data. The validity of particular assumptions or aspects of the model such as damping mechanisms, can be tested by imposing additional constraints on the fitting procedure. We verify the performance of the method by studying two modes of a 478 nm thick Si3N4 freestanding membrane and find Q factors of 2 × 104 for both modes at room temperature. Finally, we observe a linear increase of the resonance frequency of the ground mode with temperature which amounts to 550 Hz=◦C for a ground mode frequency of 0:447 MHz. This makes the nanomembrane resonators suitable as high-sensitive temperature sensors. I.

  • The Gulf of Georgia Submarine Telephone Cable
    .4 paper presented at the 285th Meeting of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, Vancouver, B. C., September 10, 1913. Copyright 1913. By A.I.EE. THE GULF OF GEORGIA SUBMARINE TELEPHONE CABLE BY E. P. LA BELLE AND L. P. CRIM The recent laying of a continuously loaded submarine tele- phone cable, across the Gulf of Georgia, between Point Grey, near Vancouver, and Nanaimo, on Vancouver Island, in British Columbia, is of interest as it is the only cable of its type in use outside of Europe. The purpose of this cable was to provide such telephonic facilities to Vancouver Island that the speaking range could be extended from any point on the Island to Vancouver, and other principal towns on the mainland in the territory served by the British Columbia Telephone Company. The only means of telephonic communication between Van- couver and Victoria, prior to the laying of this cable, was through a submarine cable between Bellingham and Victoria, laid in 1904. This cable was non-loaded, of the four-core type, with gutta-percha insulation, and to the writer's best knowledge, is the only cable of this type in use in North America. This cable is in five pieces crossing the various channels between Belling- ham and Victoria. A total of 14.2 nautical miles (16.37 miles, 26.3 km.) of this cable is in use. The conductors are stranded and weigh 180 lb. per nautical mile (44. 3 kg. per km.). By means of a circuit which could be provided through this cable by way of Bellingham, a fairly satisfactory service was maintained between Vancouver and Victoria, the circuit equating to about 26 miles (41.8 km.) of standard cable.

  • VK4YE Compact End-Fed 5 Band HF Antenna
    VK4YE Compact End-Fed 5 Band HF Antenna INTRODUCTION End-fed antennas are increasingly popular again, at least partly because of compact ferrite toroid cores. Small cores facilitate easy-to-build low-power RF transformers and networks. The combination of lightweight matching systems, combined with the installation simplicity of NOT hanging a heavy coaxial feeder from a long span of thin antenna wire, has rekindled interest in end-fed half-wave antennas. The 25m long antenna described here will get you on air without an ATU on 80m, 40m, 20m, 15m & 10m. It has been purposely reduced in length compared to a full sized 80m dipole by the insertion of a 70uH loading coil. At 7MHz, the impedance of the loading coil is about 3kΩ, and this effectively disconnects the tail of the antenna at 40m and above. The reason for reducing the size of the antenna is to enable operation on smaller house allotments as well as being compact enough for portable work. The length of the antenna from the feed point to the loading coil is 20.2m and this sets the 40m resonance at 7.1MHz, which in turn dictates the responses of the harmonically related bands 14MHz, 21MHz and 28MHz. As the length of the antenna is around 2/3 of the span of a half-wave dipole on 80m, there are two compromises. Firstly, bandwidth on 80m is restricted to about 80 kHz at the 2:1 SWR points, and secondly, there will be a reduction of around 1.5 S points in both transmitted and received signals.

  • Chapter 4 Inductive Loading
    Chapter 4 Inductive Loading 4.0 Introduction This chapter explores the use of inductive loading to increase Rr and to enable excitation of a grounded tower. Chapter 3 demonstrated the utility of capacitive top- loading where the increase in Rr was primarily due to beneficial changes in the current distribution on the vertical. However, top-loading is not the only means for increasing Rr. We can move the tuning inductor or even only a portion of it, from the base up into the vertical. We can also move the feedpoint higher in the vertical. This chapter includes a discussion of multiple-tuning, a technique using inductors to manipulate the feedpoint impedance and distribution of current between multiple parallel wires. 4.1 Loading inductor location Figure 4.1 - Current distribution on a 50' vertical at 475 kHz. 1 In HF mobile verticals it has long been standard practice to move the loading inductor from the base up into the vertical to increase Rr[1]. We can do the same for LF/MF verticals. Figure 4.1 compares the current distribution on a 50' vertical with the tuning inductor at the base and just above midpoint. With the inductor near the midpoint the current below it remains essentially equal to Io. Increasing the current along the lower part of the vertical increases the Ampere-degree area A' (see section 3.3) which translates to increased Rr: 0.22Ω → 0.57Ω. Figure 4.2 - Efficiency as a function of loading inductor location and value. To keep the antenna resonant as we move the coil its value (XL) must be increased, 3411Ω → 6487Ω.

  • Modified Chebyshev-2 Filters with Low Q-Factors
    J KAU: Eng. Sci., vol. 3, pp. 21-34 (1411 A.H.l1991 A.D.) Modified Chebyshev-2 Filters with Low Q-Factors A. M. MILYANI and A. M. AFFANDI Department ofElectrical and Computer Engineering, Faculty ofEngineering, King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. ABSTRACT A modified low pass maximally flat inverse Chebyshev filter is suggested in this paper, and is shown to have improvement over previous known Chebyshev filters. The coefficients of this modified filter, using a higher order polynomial with multiplicity of the dominant pole-pair, have been determined. The pole locations and the Q factors for different orders of filters are tabulated using an optimization algorithm. 1. Introduction Recently, there has been a great deal of interest in deriving suboptimal transfer func­ tions with low Q dominant poles[1-3J. The suboptimality of these functions allows for low precision requirements in both active RC-filters and digital filters. It is, however, noted that the minimal order filter is not necessarily the least complex filter. In a recent article, Premoli[11 used the notion of multiplicity in the dominant poles to obtain multiple critical root maximally flat (MUCROMAF) polynomials for low­ pass filters. An alternative method for deriving these functions, referred to as mod­ ified Butterworth functions, has been presented by Massad and Yariagaddal2J . Also a new class of multiple critical root pair, equal ripple (MUCROER) filtering func­ tions, having higher degree than the filtering functions, has been presented by Premoli[1l. By relaxing the equal ripple conditions, Massad and Yarlagadda derived a new algorithm to find modified Chebyshev functions which have lower Qdominant polesl21 .
