DIRECTIVE BEAM OF THE MONOPOLE ANTENNA USING BROADBAND GRADIENT REFRACTIVE INDEX METAMATERIAL FOR ULTRA-WIDEBAND APPLICATION

Directive Beam of the Monopole Antenna Using Broadband Gradient Refractive Index Metamaterial for Ultra-Wideband Application

This paper introduces a novel technique to enhance the gain of the basic monopole antenna by using broadband gradient refractive index (GRIN) metamaterial.The proposed GRIN is designed by using a parallel-line unit cell metamaterial with different refractive index.A seven benify toyota GRIN lens is placed on the omnidirectional printed basic monopo

The instant effect of embodiment via mirror visual feedback on electroencephalogram-based brain connectivity changes: A pilot study

The therapeutic efficacy of mirror visual feedback (MVF) is attributed to the perception of embodiment.This study intends to investigate the instantaneous effect of embodiment on brain connectivity.Twelve healthy subjects were required to clench and open their non-dominant hands and keep the dominant hands still during two experimental sessions.In

Release properties of individual presynaptic boutons expressed during homosynaptic depression and heterosynaptic facilitation of the Aplysia sensorimotor synapse

Much of what we know about the mechanisms underlying Homosynaptic Depression (HSD) and heterosynaptic facilitation is based on intracellular recordings of integrated postsynaptic potentials.This methodological approach views the presynaptic apparatus as a single compartment rather than taking a more realistic representation reflecting the fact that
