(2003) Ortiz Pérez de Eulate, Noelia; Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Gonzalo García, Ramón; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
In this paper a new design of a dual-band corrugated horn antenna is presented. The design is based on a gaussian profile to allow high pattern symmetry, low-crosspolar levels and low-side-lobes over a wide frequency range. To achieve a dual-band corrugated horn antenna, dual depth corrugations were used along the whole profile. The design presents a nice far field radiation pattern, which is compatible with the frequency reuse requirements in satellite communication antennas. The horn has been designed to operate in two frequency bands between X, Ku and K bands. Simulations and measurements show pretty good radiation patterns with return loss below –20dB and crosspolar-levels below –30dB in both frequency bands.

Estudio de la posibilidad de utilizar modos de orden superior en guías de onda cuasi-ópticas
(1995) Río Bocio, Carlos del; Gonzalo García, Ramón; Marín Pilz, Miguel; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Möbius, Arnold; Thumm, Manfred; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
The possibility to employ low power gyrotron tubes (10-30 kW, CW) at millimeter wave frequencies (30-100 GHz) has potential applications in advanced ceramic sintering, surface coating, radar, remote sensing, etc.. In materials processing applications, the final shape of the beam is not relevant, because the experiment have to be done in a cavity which has a metallic mode stirrer in order to obtain inside a uniform distribution of the electromagnetic fields. In this paper, we present a preliminar study, showing that it is possible to use high order modes in the transmission line to carry the power to the final experiment efficiently.

Diseño óptimo de antenas de bocina multimodo para excitar un haz gaussiano fundamental de alta pureza
(1996) Gonzalo García, Ramón; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
In this paper, we present an original and optimal multimode horn antenna design to excite the fundamental Gaussian beam from an overmoded waveguide. In particular, we focus the study in overmoded circular corrugated waveguide. The main idea to design this multimode horn antenna, is to increase the waveguide radius as the desired gaussian mode expands. This principle has also been applied to smooth circular waveguides to excite higher order Gaussian beams from TE0n modes. The horn antenna design considered here, improves the gaussian conversion efficiency, the crosspolarisation and the sidelobes level of some good mixture ( aprox. 85% of TE11 and 15% of TM11 ).

Ultra-wide band corrugated gaussian profiled horn antenna design
(IEEE, 2001) Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Gonzalo García, Ramón; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
A corrugated horn antenna design with more than 40% bandwidth is proposed in this paper. The measured radiated field patterns have a good agreement with the simulated ones. This antenna can be used in applications that require extremely wide bandwidth with low sidelobes and low crosspolar levels, with not very strong return loss requirements.

Measurements of a new gaussian profile corrugated horn antenna for millimeter wave applications
(IEEE, 1998) Gonzalo García, Ramón; Martí Canales, J.; Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
The measurements results of a new design of corrugated horn antennas [1, 2, 3] following the gaussian expansion are presented in this paper. The performance of two corrugated horn antennas of this kind was verified in the ESTEC Compact Antenna Test Range (CATR) [4]. Very high agreement between measured and predicted results is found.

Alimentadores gaussianos en guía de onda rectangular
(1999) Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Gonzalo García, Ramón; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
A new and efficient design of a rectangular corrugated waveguide mode converter, from TE10 mode in a smooth rectangular monomode waveguide to HE11 mode in a corrugated rectangular waveguide, is proposed. The main idea is the application of Gaussian design techniques, described in the given references, previously applied in circular waveguides. By using these techniques compact and very efficient components are obtained. The obtained far field pattern is rather good as illuminator of square or rectangular parabolic reflectors, with very low sidelobes and crosspolarisation levels, avoiding the use of a rectangular to circular waveguide converter.

Gaussian beam propagation versus Huygens method in non-paraxial conditions
(1997) Gonzalo García, Ramón; Turullols, Pedro; Río Bocio, Carlos del; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
In this paper, we present a study about the difference between Gaussian beam propagation and Huygens method to obtain the radiation pattern in the case of non-paraxial conditions. We fix a way to determine the error in the Gaussian beam propagation, in this way, we could know if the approximation is good enough. The computational results show that it is not possible to use the Gaussian propagation equation when we are working with Gaussian beams in non-paraxial conditions.

Electromagnetic band-gap substrates o er advantages regarding cross-coupling in sub-mm range imaging array applications. Electromagnetic scattering by such substrates may e ectively be formulated in terms of integro- di erential equations. The scattered elds are evaluated via the spectral domain in which the 3-D problem reduces to an in nite system of coupled 1-D integro-di erential equations. The associated matrix-vector products are dominated by FFTs. For moderate frequencies an elementary preconditioner in combination with a prudent initial estimate usually su ces to reach rapid convergence using the transpose-free quasi-minimal residual method.

Paraxiality considerations of higher order gaussian modes
(1996) Río Bocio, Carlos del; Gonzalo García, Ramón; Sorolla Ayza, Mario; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
Frequently, gaussian modes are used as free space wave equation solutions. This is not true since they are obtained assuming certain paraxial character in them. In this paper, we present an original study of the condition for paraxiality of higher order gaussian modes solutions of the wave equations in free space. A bound for the product of number (k) in free space and the beam waist of a family of modes is obtained, in terms of the mode indexes - the bound being more restrictive the larger the order of the mode.
