Antenna modifications. For some increase in the gain (when narrowing the bandwidth), and most importantly, to increase the noise immunity of the antenna, the reader N. Turkin from St. Petersburg proposes to modify the version of the two-band antenna. To do this, he recommends making the antenna reflector active.

The result is a so-called "ZL" type antenna, similar in properties to a four-element antenna (see K. Rochthammel's book "Antennas". - M Energy, 1979). The main feature of such an antenna is the attenuation of the signal from the opposite direction up to 40 dB.

Two-pole UHF antenna

Modification of the antenna comes down to connecting the upper attachment points of the vibrator half-loops and the reflector of a two-wire overhead symmetrical criss-cross transmission line (see figure). It can be made from wires with a diameter of 3-4 mm, located at a distance of 1,5 ... 2 mm from one another. The jumper on the reflector cable is lowered down until a quarter-wave symmetrical short-circuited line is obtained. The distance between the reflector and the vibrator should be L/8, the perimeter of the vibrator is 1,04L; reflector - 5% more (1,09L).

With an active reflector, the input impedance of the antenna drops to about 30 ohms, so the connecting cable with a characteristic impedance of 75 ohms should be connected through a quarter-wave unbalanced line (resistance transformer) in the form of a piece of coaxial cable with polyethylene insulation with a characteristic impedance of 50 ohms and a length of 0,66 L / 4 .

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

Petgugu Global cat litter 15.04.2024

Taking care of pets can often be a challenge, especially when it comes to keeping your home clean. A new interesting solution from the Petgugu Global startup has been presented, which will make life easier for cat owners and help them keep their home perfectly clean and tidy. Startup Petgugu Global has unveiled a unique cat toilet that can automatically flush feces, keeping your home clean and fresh. This innovative device is equipped with various smart sensors that monitor your pet's toilet activity and activate to automatically clean after use. The device connects to the sewer system and ensures efficient waste removal without the need for intervention from the owner. Additionally, the toilet has a large flushable storage capacity, making it ideal for multi-cat households. The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Coca-Cola, Apple and IBM are the world's best brands 06.10.2012

The annual edition of the list of the world's best brands Best Global Brands was published by Interbrand. The top of the list continues to hold Coca-Cola, but Apple has risen to second place, last year was only eighth. In total, there were six companies in the top ten, the field of activity of which falls into the subject covered by us.

When preparing the list, Interbrand specialists take into account three key aspects that determine the value of the brand. These are the financial performance of the company, the influence of the brand on the choice of buyers and the willingness of buyers to pay more for a product under a certain brand.

So, the value of Apple for the year increased from 33,5 billion dollars to 76,6 billion dollars, which allowed this brand to become the second after Coca-Cola (77,8 billion dollars). In third place - IBM. This brand is valued at $75,5 billion. Last year, he was second with $69,9 billion.

Fourth place was retained by the brand Google, estimated at 69,7 billion dollars (55,3 billion dollars last year). The Microsoft brand dropped from third to fifth position as its value dropped from $59,1 billion to $57,9 billion. Sixth place in the list was taken by General Electric, and seventh by McDonald`s. Intel and Samsung are ranked eighth and ninth, respectively. It is noteworthy that last year Intel was in seventh place, and Samsung was seventeenth. In monetary terms, the figures for Intel and Samsung this year are $39,4 billion and $32,9 billion, respectively. Closes the top ten Toyota.
