Line of Brillouin-Erbium Fiber Laser Utilizing a Fabry-Perot Cavity in L-band

In this paper, the generation of a multiwavelength laser source from a Brillouin -Erbium fiber laser in the long wavelength band (L-band) region is experimentally demonstrated. The proposed laser system utilizes a Fabrv-Perot cavity formed by fiber-loop mirrors. Twenty-four lines of Brillouin-Stokes with line spacings of 10 GHz are obtained in the L-band region

Analysis of Cavity Backed Printed Dipoles

The closed form expression for the radiated power of a half-wave microstrip patch is modified to calculate the impedance bandwidth of a printed dipole. Analyses of cavity backed flared and end-loaded printed dipoles are presented

Improved Loaded Quality Factor of Cavity Resonators with Cross lris Coupling

The performance of circular, rectangular and cross irises for the coupling of microwave power to rectangular waveguide cavity resonators is discussed. For the measurement of complex permittivity of materials using cavity perturbation techniques, rectangular cavities with high Q-factors are required. Compared to the conventional rectangular and circular irises, the cross Iris coupling structure provides very high loaded quality factor for all the resonant frequencies. The proposes cross iris coupling structure enhances the accuracy of complex permittivity measurements.

Broadband coaxial cavity resonator for complex permittivity measurements of liquids

A novel cavity perturbation technique using coaxial cavity resonators for the measurement of complex permittivity of liquids is presented. The method employs two types of resonators (Resonator I and Resonator II). Resonator I operates in the frequency range 600 MHz-7 GHz and resonator II operates in the frequency range 4 GHz-14 GHz. The introduction of the capillary tube filled with the sample liquid into the coaxial resonator causes shifts in the resonance frequency and loaded Q-factor of the resonator. The shifts in the resonance frequency and loaded Q-factor are used to determine the real and imaginary parts of the complex permittivity of the sample liquid, respectively. Using this technique, the dielectric parameters of water and nitrobenzene are measured. The results are compared with those obtained using other standard methods. The sources of errors are analyzed.
