COMPARING SIMULATED RESULTS OF FOLDED AND UNFOLDED LOG-PERIODIC ANTENNA USED FOR OBSERVING THE SUN
Journal Title: Solar-Terrestrial Physics - Year 2019, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
There are two antenna arrays located in Mingantu Spectral Radio Heliograph (MUSER). MUSER-I and MUSER-II cover the frequency band ranging from 0.4 to 2 GHz and from 2 to 15 GHz respectively. A third antenna array covering 30–240 MHz will be established in the coming years. A log-periodic antenna is one of the choices for MUSER low frequency band; it radiates structures capable of maintaining consistent impedance characteristics over a wide bandwidth. Due to the ability of achieving high gain, it is widely used in many broadband applications. In this program, folded and unfolded log-periodic antennas are simulated for the Meridian project. In order to improve its return loss, this antenna is optimized with the width of each pole and the height of the substrate. This optimized process has been implemented in the simulated software HFSS.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GEOMAGNETIC STORM DEVELOPMENT AND THE SOLAR WIND PARAMETER ß
We have analyzed the dynamics of solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) parameters during the development of 933 isolated geomagnetic storms, observed over the period from 1964 to 2010. The analysis was carri...
METHOD OF STUDYING INFRASOUND WAVES FROM THUNDERSTORMS
The paper provides an overview of studies of infrasound signals from thunderstorms over a period of more than 30 years. We deal with several types of infrasound signals from thunderstorms detected at the ISTP SB RAS infr...
ESTIMATED NITRIC OXIDE DENSITY IN AURORAS FROM GROUND-BASED PHOTOMETRIC DATA
In this paper, we numerically estimate the nitric oxide density in auroras, using photometric data on 427.8, 557.7, and 630.0 nm emission intensities. The data were obtained at midnight at observatories of the Polar Geop...
STUDYING AURORAL ACTIVITY USING THE SME INDEX AT THE MAGNETIC STORM MAIN PHASE DURING CIR AND ICME EVENTS
In this paper, we examine the relationship of the SME index with magnetic storm characteristics and interplanetary medium parameters during the main phase of magnetic storms caused by CIR and ICME events. Over the period...
IDENTIFICATION OF SPECTRUM OF SECONDARY ACOUSTIC-GRAVITY WAVES IN THE MIDDLE AND UPPER ATMOSPHERE IN A HIGH-RESOLUTION NUMERICAL MODEL
Considerable attention has recently been paid to the study of so-called “secondary” acoustic-gravity waves (AGWs) that arise as a result of instability and nonlinear interactions of “primary” wave modes propagating from...
