The modeling and validation of a 33 GHz shaped dielectric antenna design is investigated. The electromagnetic modeling was performed in both WIPL-D and FEKO, and was used to validate the antenna design prior to fabrication of the lens. It is shown that both WIPL-D and FEKO yield similarly accurate results...

Antenna radiation patterns are typically measured using network analyzers, which are both expensive and physically large in size. These drawbacks can limit this test equipment's usage in universities that cannot afford to make such a purchase, as well as within applications that require mobile antenna measurements. An alternative approach is...

A method to relate archived marine meteorological observations to two-minute average rain rates is described. The method is used to produce maps that indicate the frequency of observation of critical rain rates (5, 8, and 15 mm/hr) for the Atlantic, North Pacific and Indian Oceans.
