A piezoelectric energy harvester was developed in this paper. It is actuated by the vibration leakage from the nodal position of a high-power ultrasonic cutting transducer. The harvester was excited at a low displacement amplitude (0.73 µmpp). However, its operation frequency is quite high and reaches the ultrasonic range (24.4 kHz). Compared with another low frequency harvester (66 Hz), both theoretical and experimental results proved that the advantages of this high frequency harvester include (i) high current generation capability (up to 20 mApp compared to 1.3 mApp of the 66 Hz transducer) and (ii) low impedance matching resistance (500 Ω in contrast to 50 kΩ of the 66 Hz transducer). This energy harvester can be applied either in sensing, or vibration controlling, or simply energy harvesting in a high-power ultrasonic system.

With the development trend of wireless and broadband in the communication link and even the whole information industry, the demand of high-frequency microwave bandwidth has been increasing. The RoF network system solves the problem of spectrum congestion in low-frequency band by providing an effective technology for the distribution of high-frequency microwave signals over optical fiber links. However, the traditional mm-wave generation technique is limited by the bandwidth of electronic devices. It is difficult to generate high-frequency and low-phase noise mm-wave signals with pure electrical components. The mm-wave communication technology based on photon assisted can overcome the bandwidth bottleneck of electronic devices and provide the potential for developing the low-cost infrastructure demand of broadband mobile services. This paper will briefly explain the characteristics of the RoF network system and the advantages of high-frequency mm-wave. Then we, respectively, introduce the modulation schemes of RoF mm-wave generation based on photon assisted including directly modulated laser (DML), external modulation, and optical heterodyne. The review mainly focuses on a variety of different mm-wave generation technologies including multifrequency vector mm-wave. Furthermore, we list several approaches to realize the large capacity data transmission techniques and describe the digital signal processing (DSP) algorithm flow in the receiver. In the end, we summarize the RoF network system and look forward to the future.

There are various feeding methods of antenna like as coaxial probe, coupling, parasitic elements, and impedance matching. This paper adopted the microstrip line method as the feeding method of the antenna. The high frequency structure simulator is used to analyze the characteristics of the T-shaped microstrip antenna with various patch dimensions. In comparison with the basic microstrip antenna, this proposed T-shaped microstrip antenna with 40.38 % of patch dimensions has the optimum characteristics of resonant frequency, return loss, and radiation pattern at 2.0 GHz band.

A metamaterial extended microstrip rectangular patch antenna with CSRR loading and defected ground structures(DGS) is proposed for wideband applications with band notching at the frequencies of KU band. The proposed antenna is designed by embedding it on Rogers RT/Duroid 5880 substrate with good impedance matching of 50 Ω at the feedline.The high frequency structure simulator (HFSS) is used to design and simulate the antennas parameters in the operating band. Measurement results confirm the antenna characteristics as predicted in the simulation with a slight shift in frequencies.

This paper designs a vertically polarized, horizontal, omnidirectional vehicle antenna for the mobile communication band, covering the available frequency bands of the wireless sensor network and 5G. The antenna is composed of semi-T monopole and semicone monopole, which are placed vertically on the metal plate, especially suitable for being mounted on top of a car. T-branch mainly works at low frequency, and cone branch mainly works at high frequency. The cone branch adopts tapered structure in order to improve the impedance matching of antenna and increase the bandwidth of antenna. The antenna can be miniaturized by cutting the antenna in half. The operating frequencies of the antenna are 770 MHz–1000 MHz and 1.7 GHz–3.78 GHz which can cover multiple wireless system bands, including GSM, LTE, and 5G.

AbstractIn traditional antenna design, metal components are not placed in the central part of the antenna as they change the characteristics of near field radiation. However, we show that placing a metal ring in the centre of the strip lines, which connect the ends of folded high-frequency dipoles, does not damage the performance of the feed. Instead it significantly improves the voltage standing wave ratio of the feed whilst other performance indicators are not compromised. Thus, our findings show an excellent way of improving the wide band feed. Based on this foundation, a new circularly polarised feed for operation between 0.4 to 2 GHz is introduced for the Chinese Spectral Radioheliograph in this paper. The issue of a feed impedance matching network is investigated. By optimising the impedance matching, the performance of the feed is enhanced with respect to the previous realisations of the Eleven feed. The simulation and experimental results show that the gain of the feed is about 10 dBi, and the VSWR is less than 2:1. In addition, the feed has a low axial ratio, fixed phase centre location, and constant beam width in the range of 0.4 to 2 GHz.

In this paper we present heterodyne control as a technique for digital feedback control of a high-frequency, narrowband micromechanical oscillator. In this technique, isolated and synchronized hardware downconversion and upconversion components are used in conjunction with digital signal processing (DSP) to control the oscillator. Heterodyne control offers reduced computational effort for the digital control of high-frequency, narrow band system, the reduction of noise outside the pass-band, and the generation of lock-in amplifier signals. We present heterodyne control with design criteria in the context of magnetic resonance force microscopy (MRFM) cantilever control. Finally, we present experimental results of heterodyne control applied to an emulated radio-frequency microcantilever system.
