Diffraction Radiation Antenna for 8-mm Waveband Radar Meant for Airfield Observation
High-resolution millimeter wave radars become an essential part of ground safety systems. Among them, radar systems for airfield traffic control are of special interest. The diffraction radiation antenna has been designed for it, using novel technology. The antenna consists of a ridged dielectric waveguide, diffraction grating, and focusing lens. The eigenwave of the ridged dielectric waveguide excites resonant oscillations in the elements of the diffraction grating.
A novel W-band radar for airport traffic monitoring: implementation, first operational results, perspectives
High resolution requirements for airport surface traffic monitoring with lightweight, small, all-weather sensors call for the use of a network of millimetre-wave radars to perform the surveillance function in the surface movement control and guidance system. In this paper a W-band radar employed as the basic sensor is described. Some results of recent and present field trials are reported.
Differences in the length of initial hospital stay in very preterm infants
Aim: To investigate the effect of maternal, infant and birth hospital district related factors on the length of initial hospital stay in very preterm infants. In addition, rehospitalization rate within the first year from the initial discharge was studied.
