participate in the Frontier Days Rodeo. We were fortunate to have put together a decent run on our last draw and win enough day-money to keep us going for a while. Jake and I are rodeo-bums, to be specific, calf ropers. I am the one who tries to throw the loop of a rope around a calf’s neck and Jake is my partner, the best roping horse a cowboy ever mounted. By the way, how many understand the art of calf roping? I thought so. Let me walk through the steps of what it takes to put together that perfect run
Radio frequency energy is the energy transmitted by sources that can generate electromagnetic fields like TV signals, radio signal, wireless networks and cell phone towers, by using specially designed circuits connected to a an antenna this electromagnetic energy can be harvested and converted into a usable DC voltage. One of the applications of this technology is in radio frequency identification tags in which harvesting device can receives an RF signal from a sensing device; this RF signal can
Wearable antennas are meant to be worn on human body so that it must be light weight, low profile, flexible, un-obstructive and rugged. To fulfill this requirements, textile materials are used to make wearable antennas. Electrical and dielectric properties of these textile materials are not readily available. Unlike, antennas embedded in portable devices, wearable antennas are designed to work in the complicated body-centric environment. Antenna performance near to human body is different than antenna

If voltage is applied to terminals of an antenna A and the current is measured at another antenna B, then an equal current (bot amplitude and phase) will appear at terminals of antenna A if same voltage is applied to antenna B. Application of reciprocity theorem Equality of Directional Patterns Statement: 'The directional pattern of an antenna as a receiving antenna is identical to that when used as a transmitting antenna." Proof: The above mentioned antenna theorem is the outcome of the application
Conditional and Iterative Data Types Conditional and Iterative A programming language cannot be a programming language with out its conditional and iterative structures. Programming languages are built to accomplish the task of controlling computer input and output. A programmer must use every tool available to complete his/her given tasks, and conditional as well as iterative statements are the most basic items of programming which must be mastered. Many different programming languages
it's ends taped together, it would most likely end up being a belt. It would be a loop with both an inside surface and an outside surface. But what if you took that same strip of paper and gave it a half twist before taping the ends together? The result would be this fascinating geometric complexity, which is known as the Möbius Strip. If a Möbius Strip is cut length-wise (all the way around) it will end up with a loop ... ... middle of paper ... ...of half-twists is cut in half along its length
In order to best describe a local landline phone system it is best to understand some of the terms for the basic components of the landline telephone. A local loop is a loop of copper wire that allows current to flow from the telephone to the central office and back. It is a dual-wire physical interface that connects a telephone to the central office. The two wires are typically referred to as a twisted pair. This is how signal is sent through the telephone to give you the dial tone and to be able
demand of development of compact antenna to support multiple applications that can be easily integrated within the small space that is available inside the device. In the case of, portable antenna technology has grown along with mobile and cellular technologies. Proper antenna for a device is the most important factor. This will improve transmission and reception of signals, reduce power consumption, long lasting and improve marketability of the device. Antennas used for early portable wireless
Long ago there lived a race of cat people who had much the same problems with antennas that we humans have today: bad reception during the last few seconds of a game, continual snow during their favorite part of their favorite movie, and a severe lack of the "magic position" that one is required to hold when covered in tin foil and grasping the antenna. Unfortunately for them, they did not have this web page to reference and therefore they died. This left an opening for humans. Initially, humans
carry out my research work more efficiently in a group, require an exposure, and a nice microstrip antenna fabrication and characterization facility. I got excited looking at the research areas, faculty and lab at the Ohio state university, the research experience I have gained and the techniques and skills I have learned so far will be of immense help in carrying out work in Electromagnetic and Antennas in this university. It would be a great opportunity to be a part of this university as a PhD student
bandwidth and spectrum. And by standing on the shoulders of giants, Teletarand Foschinigave the technique of MIMO system which would increase the spectral efficiency of the wireless system to its maximum compared to all the current technologies. Multiple antennas are used for transmission and reception to increases the capacity of the wireless channel.Capacity is expressed as the maximum achievable data rate for an arbitrarily low probabilityof error. Thistechnology received a fillip when TarokhEtA introduced
Mind Over Matter and Levitation Levitation is the ability to suspend the laws of gravity that bind us to the earth. It has a lot to do with mind over matter. A person being able to clear his or her minds and think nice, good things enable them to do things that they have never done before. Sounds unheard of, but this has been researched, tested, and even observed by people and scientists from all over the world. Extreme mental concentration is all that is needed. A great subject to prove mind
“Neither a wise man nor a brave man lies down on the tracks of history to wait for the train of the future to run over him,”- President Dwight D. Eisenhower. Maglev is a new type of train that uses magnets to levitate above the track and reduce friction. Maglev can go up to a speed of 310 mph (500 km/h) allowing people to travel on land much faster than before. The researcher will create a model Maglev and see which system, EMS or EDS, will result in better efficiency. Efficiency will be measured
Ever since 3500 BC when the first wheel was used in Mesopotamia man has strived to find better ways of transport. Since then we have slowly progressed to automobiles, trains, boats, and even airplanes, but people have always progressed. So what will be the transportation of the future? The world’s fossil fuels are dwindling. Many people are not facing what is staring them in the face. Fossil fuels will not last forever, and they are causing problems in our environments. They have made many numerous
In the film Groundhog Day, journalist Phil Connors finds himself waking up at the same exact time, the same exact place, and on the same exact day. Unsure of why this keeps happening to him, Phil tries new ways to spend his day in order to finally experience a tomorrow. According to the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, Phil is experiencing the Eternal Return, the thought that there is no beginning or end of time, and all are doomed to repeat their lives over and over again. However, Phil’s Eternal
of an Aperture Coupled Microstrip Stacked Patch Antenna For WLAN Applications Abstarct- In this paper microstrip stacked patch antenna with 10mm air gap using aperture coupling technique at frequency of 5.8 GHz has been discussed. Microstrip antennas suffer from a biggest drawback of narrow bandwidth and this can be improved by a technique called aperture coupling and further by stacking of antennas without increase in surface area of antenna. Without stacking bandwidth comes out to be 310 MHz
Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) Digital Subscriber Line new technology that takes advantage of standard copper telephone line to provide secure, reliable, high-speed Internet access. DSL refers to the family of digital subscriber line technologies, such as ADSL, HDSL, and RADSL. Connection speed for DSL ranges from 1.44 Mbps to 512 Kbps downstream and around 128 Kbps upstream. Unlike traditional connections DSL such as analog modems and IDSN, DSL deliver continuous “always on” access. That means
Guns, Good or Bad? Should guns be carried around by everyone? Maybe they should. I am not sure if I am with legalizing guns, but if I look at the situation in Chicago, it might be different. Chicago especially the west side is very dangerous and to be around that neighborhood has its risks. If you do need a gun to defend yourself, it’s less likely for you to get threatened. Not saying that you should kill people because you shouldn’t harm anyone, but to make sure that you are safe. Sometimes all
Kidney Function Introduction and definition of terms: The kidneys are the main organs in the urinary system. They filter waste products out of blood from the renal artery. These are then excreted. Useful solutes are reabsorbed into the blood. They also have a major homeostatic role in the body, and help to control the water content (osmoregulation) and pH of the blood. Homeostasis is the maintenance of a constant internal environment within a living organism. Excretion is the removal
