Linewidth and FM characteristics of a distributed feedback laser monolithically integrated with a tunable external cavity

A narrow linewidth has been obtained in a new 1.5 ?m distributed feedback laser integrated monolithically with a tunable external cavity. The linewidth of 18 MHz has been achieved by tuning the current in the external cavity, and the FM response was flat from 100 kHz to 500 MHz.     

The strip-loaded hybrid-mode feed horn

A novel typed of hybrid-mode feed horn is presented. It comprises a hollow conical dielectric waveguide whose outer surface is metallized, and whose inner surface is coated with circumferentially oriented conducting strips. It may be designed to have mimimal cross polarization at two arbitrarily separated frequencies, as for a dual depth corrugated horn. Compared to the corrugated horn, it has the potential of lower weight and lower price. Small horns will have some cross polarization due to undesired radiation from the fields transmitted within the dielectric.     

On the construction of the reachability domain in one nonlinear problem

An algorithm for construction of the reachability domain by the given time instant ? for a nonlinear third order system under the condition of preliminary approach to a predefined point is proposed. All possible cases of location of this point in the motion plane of the system for different values of the time instant ? are studied.     

NADRA 3D information technology for analysis of processes in multicomponent soil media

This paper considers the principles of algorithmic and software implementation of the software system NADRA 3D designed to analyze processes in three-dimensional multicomponent soil media. The principles of operation of NADRA 3D are described. __________ Translated from Kibernetika i Sistemnyi Analiz, No. 6, pp. 157–174, November–December 2006.
