Transverse Doppler Effect-Based Frequency Shifter
A block diagram of a quasioptical (QO) frequency shifter (FS) is proposed, in which a transverse Doppler effect has been originally employed. This block diagram provides for a continuous frequency shift much as polarization frequency shifters do. The physical processes that occur in the FS under consideration have been analyzed. It is found that the mirror moving transversely to the incident radiation along with the known force of pressure is acted upon by the lateral force directed towards the mirror motion. The FS block diagram ensures a 4-fold return of the QO beam from the mirror and eliminates the influence of parasitic mirror vibrations on the transmitted radiation phase. The application of the proposed FS may be found to be beneficial in homodyne measuring systems with frequencies ranging from THz and higher up to the optical ones.

Microstrip Grating Placed in Open Resonator

The possibility of excitation of the fundamental mode in the semi-symmetrical open resonator(OR) by using the four-element microstrip grating (MG) is considered. The characteristics of MG are calculated on the basis of the spectral method for the frequency of 10 GHz. The experimental dependencies of the loaded Q-factor and resonant transmission coefficient via the distance between the mirrors of the OR are provided if the latter is excited by the MG and the slot. The prospects for application of MG to develope an active high-Q quasi-optical source of oscillations within the mm-band is demonstrated.

Axially-Symmetric Eigen Modes of Electric-Type in the Open Resonator with Spherical Mirrors

A rigorous mathematical model describing axially-symmetric eigen oscillations of electric-type in open resonators with spherical mirrors has been developed. Under the assumption on the existence of a spectrum of complex eigen frequencies of open resonators, it has been proved that the spectrum is discrete, finite-multiple, and with the only accumulation point on infinity. A theoretical analysis of spectral characteristics of an open resonator has been carried out for the case when the wavelength is comparable with the resonator dimensions. The validity limit of some well-known asymptotic models of open resonators has been specified.

Ground-Penetrating Radar Data Preprocessing
An algorithm for dynamic selection of clutter components in a signal of a videopulse ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is proposed. Clutter-resistant estimates of radio contracts are made. The robustness of these estimates has been achieved by optimal data weighting. An algorithm of suppressing anomalous bursts in a signal is proposed. The ways to subsequently elaborate the techniques for preprocessing these types of signals are discussed.

Performance of a Communication System with Information Feedback by Using an Entire Systematic Code Scheme and a Divided Code Scheme

The performance of the communication systems with information feedback driven by white Gaussian noise is analyzed. We are considering two cases of performance of these kinds of communication systems: when they are using code schemes on both channels and when they used a divided code scheme. On the basis of general expressions for these communication systems, we determine the main statistic parameters of some common code schemes. Finally, we compare the performance of this two methods graphically.
