Abstract
We propose a novel onโglass antenna with a multiloop structure for FM radio reception in a recreational vehicle (RV). The proposed antenna consists of multiple loops that are printed on a quarter glass with copper striplines. In spite of its simple planar structure, the antenna provides a broad matching bandwidth and a high vertical radiation gain. Antenna performances such as the return loss and boresight gain were measured after the antenna was installed in a commercial RV. The proposed onโglass antenna exhibits an average gain of about โ9.5 dBi with a deviation of <4 dB compared with the gain of a conventional ฮป/4 roofโmounted monopole. Transparency of the antenna body was also improved by adjusting the stripline widths based on the induced current distribution. ยฉ 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In discussing self-organizing neural networks, to some extent a large-scale network is assumed in order to achieve generality and adaptability. This paper discusses an optimal structurization method for a nonlinear network, based on a self-organizing algorithm with a two-layer structure. The basic s
Given the remarkable advances in supercomputers, large-scale electromagneticfield analyses are becoming possible by FDTD parallel computation.
