Beam pattern measurement is essential to verifying the performance of an array sonar. However, common problems in beam pattern measurement of arrays include constraints on achieving the far-field condition and reaching plane waves mainly due to limited measurement space as in acoustic water tank. For this purpose, the conventional method of measuring beam patterns in limited spaces, which transform near-field measurement data into far-field results, is used. However, the conventional method is time-consuming because of the dense spatial sampling. Hence, we devised a method to measure the beam pattern of a discrete line array in limited space based on the subarray method. In this method, a discrete line array with a measurement space that does not satisfy the far-field condition is divided into several subarrays, and the beam pattern of the line array can then be determined from the subarray measurements by the spatial convolution that is equivalent to the multiplication of beam pattern. The proposed method was verified through simulation and experimental measurement on a line array with 256 elements of 16 subarrays.

A mathematical model for the beam pattern of a pulsed ultrasonic transducer is introduced. Beam-pattern analysis and simulation of a circular transducer based on this model agree well with the experimental results. It is demonstrated that, in its near field, the pulsed transducer is capable of generating a good approximation to a uniform ultrasonic field which cannot be achieved with a cw transducer. Preliminary error analysis indicates that the near-field beam pattern of the pulsed transducer is suitable for quantitative blood-flow measurement, and design criteria are developed for this application. A prototype has been fabricated and tested in in-vitro experiments, and the results verify the feasibility of the quantitative blood flowmeter principle and the pulsed-transducer near-field approach to the formation of uniform beams.

The problem of dual/multi-band radiation of a single-body antenna is of a great topicality today when there is a continuing development of wireless communications both for civil and military purposes. The estimation of dual-band performance of endsfed dipole-like radiator, in particular, its matching with a standard purely active resistance coaxial line is given in the paper. The focus was on stating the necessary conditions and requirements on the geometric sizes of the structure under investigation and the frequency range it have to be analyzed through. It is also considered how to decrease amount of calculations needed at the starting stage of the antenna designing that includes the exact analytical approaches for near field calculations. This decrease is based on the difference in the impact the parameters under consideration have on the antenna input impedance. For the crucial electrodynamics characteristics calculations the induced electromotive forces (EMF) method is used, which has established itself as one of the most convenient in this field.
