Abstract
In this paper altitude measurement from water surface using laser beam is
presented. Research data indicate that the reflection of infrared waves from water surface is
about zero and it is less than 2% for visible radiations. Phase-shift and heterodyne
technique was used for the measurement, and the laser beam ( mW p nm 10 , 700 = = l ) was
modulated by a sine wave having a fixed frequency. The optimum design and low-noise
elements made it possible to detect a light power about 20 nW at operating frequency.

Abstract
This paper proposes a method for extending the ability of rotary power flow controller (RPFC) using tap-changer of the RPFC’s transformers. A detailed model of the device is presented to analyze the effects of the tap changer operation on the performance of the RPFC. To evaluate the results, the RPFC model is simulated using PSCAD/EMTDC software. Dynamic operation of the RPFC on a 400 kV transmission line is studied. Based on the results, using tap-changer of transformers can extend the RPFC ability to control the active power of the transmission line about 25%.

Abstract
This paper describes the synthesis of digitally excited pencil/flat top dual beams simultaneously in a linear antenna array constructed of isotropic elements. The objective is to generate a pencil/flat top beam pair using the excitations generated by the evolutionary algorithms. Both the beams share common variable discrete amplitude excitations and differ in variable discrete phase excitations. This synthesis is treated as a multi-objective optimization problem and is handled by Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm duly controlling the fitness functions. These functions include many of the radiation pattern parameters like side lobe level, half power beam width and beam width at the side lobe level in both the beams along with the ripple in the flat top band of flat top beam. In addition to it, the dynamic range ratio of the amplitudes excitations is set below a certain level to diminish the mutual coupling effects in the array. Two sets of experiments are conducted and the effectiveness of this algorithm is proved by comparing it with various versions of swarm optimization algorithms.

Abstract
In this work, a broadband dual-channel differential phase shifter is developed with a small phase deviation across a wide frequency range. The design consists of two main lines for 45° and 90° phase shifts, along with a reference line. A prototype is fabricated and measured to validate the performance of the design. Phase shifts of 45° ± 5° and 90° ± 5° over a frequency range of 1.26 GHz - 4 GHz (bandwidth of 104%) are achieved from the channels. The transmission losses of the three lines are less than 0.35 dB and the isolation between the adjacent ports is better than 20 dB. The area of this dual-channel differential phase shifter is 
(14.7 mm × 66.15 mm), where 
is the guided wavelength at the center frequency.

Abstract
Due to cost and energy concerns with digital beamformers, much of the beamforming is done by hybrid beamformers in mm-wave (mm) massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO). Various works in hybrid beamforming structures considered either phase shifters, switches, or radio frequency lenses individually as switching mechanisms between antennas and precoding systems. Works that consider the hybrid use of phase shifters, switches, and radio frequency lenses need further investigation since there is a tradeoff between cost and system performance in each switching mechanism. The main aim of this research is to analyze the performance of a hybrid switch, a 1-bit phase shifter, and radio frequency (RF)-Lens in a hybrid beamforming network as a switching network. Simulation results showed that the hybrid of three has a spectral efficiency (SE) performance of 59.04 bps/Hz, which increases by 6.9 bps/Hz from that of the switch and lens antenna array network. The energy efficiency (EE) of the switch, phase shifter, and lens showed a performance of 46.41 bps/Hz/W, while the switch and lens antenna array, phase shifter, and lens antenna array showed a performance of 48.52 bps/Hz/W. The result also shows that the hybrid network achieves optimum performance at the expense of higher computational complexity.
