Design of a novel microstrip electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) structure
Sevgi, Levent (Dogus Author)This paper presents the design, simulation, and experimentation of a novel low-cost small-size high-performance microstrip (MS) electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) structure for MIMIC applications. The simulations and measurements confirm that the stopband characteristics can be easily controlled by changing the stub lengths and the interstub gap

Modeling and simulation strategies in wireless propagation and coverage planning
Uluışık, Çağatay (Dogus Author) -- Sevgi, Levent (Dogus Author)This paper presents two-dimensional (2D) user-friendly, tailored with attractive and useful graphical user interfaces (GUI), Matlab propagation packages based on the classical knife-edge model and the parabolic equation method that can handle realistic propagation scenarios with non-flat, arbitrarily-designed and user-selected terrain profiles. Any 2D propagation scenario may be built by the user, and field vs. range and/or height profiles can be simulated

From engineering electromagnetics towards electromagnetic engineering: issues, chalanges and applications - preface
Nowadays, electromagnetics (EM) is everywhere! Although the contents of the two basic EM lectures – Field Theory and Wave Theory – have stayed almost unchanged for the last couple of decades we have witnessed the transformation from engineering EM to EM engineering for some time. Therefore, addressing technical challenges posed by electrical, electronics, communication, and computer system complexities requires a broad range of innovative, multi-disciplinary analytical and computational skills that are not adequately covered in conventional EM engineering curricula. EM engineering community, therefore, must be prepared to adapt to frequent shifts in technological priorities and rapid scientific advances, followed by rapid advances in technologies. [...
Metamaterials: definitions, properties, applications and FDTD - based modeling and simulation (Invited paper)
In this article, we review definition, origin, terminology, fundamental properties, design concepts and procedures, basic applications, modeling, and numerical simulation of metamaterials. It is shown that metamaterial origin can be easily understood by placing metamaterials in the more general context of artificial electromagnetic materials and of the efforts performed by the scientific community working in complex materials to mimic and overcome the properties of natural materials. The basic properties of some classes of metamaterials as well as the related limitations are reviewed and discussed. A new application-oriented definition of metamaterials is given in terms of a functionalizing layer placed in between the traditional concepts of materials and devices. Metamaterial applications and the design steps of metamaterial-based and metamaterial-inspired components are also discussed, with particular emphasis on the numerical simulation of ideal metamaterials through available solvers. In this frame, finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) modeling and simulation of the electromagnetic properties of metamaterials are deeply discussed. The recently introduced virtual MTM-FDTD tool is used to simulate the interaction between the electromagnetic field and metamaterials and show some metamaterial effects, such as beam focusing, existence of negative refractive angle, and so forth, through various examples in different scenarios
Web - based virtual laboratories for antenna arrays, radiowave propagation and filter design
This tutorial explains in detail the creation of a Web-based application using the MATLAB Web Server (MWS) toolbox of MATLAB. It aims to enable readers who a re familiar with MATLAB but don't have Web-programming skills to prepare their own Web-based applications. Three Web-based virtual laboratories, AntenGUI, SSPEGUI, and FilterGUI, created using MWS, a re presented. The AntenGUI application illustrates the array factor of linear, rectangular, and circular arrays. The SSPEGUI application visualizes radiowave propagation over a non-smooth Earth's surface through a non-homogenous atmosphere. The FilterGUI tool designs lumped-element (LC) filters, and obtains the corresponding transmission-line and microstrip-line filters. These Web-based virtual tools can be accessed on the Internet.IEEE Antennas and Propagation Societ
