Introduction When we look up at the night sky, we see through all the layers of our atmosphere into outer space. We see across millions of lightyears to the shining, beckoning pinpoints of light that make us stare up with wonder and curiosity. But what may not be...
Introduction The previous discussions on Radar Cross-Section (RCS) and electromagnetic (EM) coupling suggested that radiation from any number of random sources can be coupled onto, and radiate from, small features with specific geometries. But this turns out to be...
Introduction A parallel application of electromagnetic (EM) modeling of aircraft is electromagnetic shielding and coupling. My recent post on calculating radar cross-section (RCS) looked at simplifying an airplane CAD model to a more simple canonical geometry, and...
Introduction Normal every day objects can be digitally represented through computer-aided design (CAD) models. Furthermore, these CAD models can be realistically sized, attributed, and imported into optical, mechanical, or radio-frequency (RF) models to help in...
Introduction Welcome back! From our last conversation about general Linear Feedback Shift Registers, we mentioned there were two flavors of LFSR algorithms: Fibonacci and Galois. Although we ran through a basic implementation of the Fibonacci technique, we can dive...
