Circular polarization... does it have to be synchronous??

Jerry: [snip] I dont think a rotating dipole with DC on it will generats a field that propogates. Your post reads as though you dont think the rotating DC dipole will producing a propogating Far Field. I read other posts that seem to indicate that others assume the DC spinning dipole will generate a propogating "far field". It is sad that I am so lazy that I cannot express myself using Cross Products. But, I submit that it takes more than rotating a dipole to produce a propogating far field. I dont understand where the "Cross H" is generated by a rotating DC dipole, as required for propogation. I dont understand why it requires more power to rotate a DC dipole with increased voltage on it, as required to account for the increased power. Jerry KD6JDJ [snip] What is required to generate electromagnetic radiation is any movement of electric charge such that there exists a rate of change of the positional acceleration of electric charge. This can be derived from first principles from the Maxwell/Heaviside equations. There is a section in the volume of Feynman's Lectures on Physics that discusses this, and I believe that the previous editor of QEX magazine wrote an article outlining a derivation of this a year or so ago. In physics and dynamics the rate of change of acceleration is termed "jerk". In terms of simple differential calculus, there is position ("x"), there is velocity ("v = dx/dt") the rate of change of position, there is acceleration ("a = dv/dt") the rate of change of velocity, and there is jerk ("j = da/dt") the rate of change of acceleration. Expressing it in these terms, it can be said that it it can be shown from the Maxwell/Heaviside partial differential equations that govern all of electromagnetics, that radiation occurs when ever electric charge is "jerked". i.e. whenever the rate of acceleration of charges changes either up or down. Now in sinusoidal realms, where all the signals are assumed to be of sine wave shapes, we know from simple differential calculus that differentiating sine waves results in more sine waves. In other words a sine wave current comprises electric charges changing position according to a sine waveform, and so perforce is the velocity, acceleration and jerk of those charges. Hence whenever electric current motion follows a sine-like wave there will be radiation caused by the sinusoidal 'jerk'. Now there are more forms of acceleration than just sine wave motion. For example when things have angular motion, there is centrifugal acceleration, and when things move on a rotating frame there is coriolis acceleration, etc... and so in general whenever electric charges are put in motion, the exception being simple motions where the third derivative of motion is zero, there will be radiation caused by that motion. All of the above details are well known to most physicists who study electromagnetics, from first principles (Maxwell/Heaviside), these 'facts' are less well known to most (modern) electrical Engineers. Consequently I find it easy to believe that the mechanical motion of any body with electric charge on it, be that charge DC or AC is highly likely to radiate electromagnetic waves. All of this is difficult, actually impossible, to simulate with NEC codes like Roy's EZNEC since those analysis codes all assume a simple steady state fixed sinusoidal regime for the framework in which the Maxwell/Heaviside equations are solved. NEC does not provide for the simulation of antennas in motion! And so... It is beyond the capability of NEC in general or EZNEC in particular to generate field patterns for rotating dipoles! Othewise someone (Cecil maybe?) would already have run a simultation on EZNEC to refute my claims to being able to generate circular polarization by mechanical rotation. In other posts in these threads on CP I have asked if anyone knows of any simulation software (generally would be in the category called "multi-physics packages" that can adequately simulate/calculate the fields for rapidly rotating dipoles driven by sinewaves at arbitrary frequencies. If so I'd like to know. And I'd like to simulate some of my "theories" just to prove my assertions. Actually it may be easier to emulate (i.e. prototype) such a spinning dipole. In fact one does not have to mechanically spin a dipole to do this. One can generate the same fields as a spinning dipole by applying the "right" signals to two orthogonal linear dipoles. i.e. a synthetic or phased array beam former, that emits circularly polarized beams of arbitrary rotation velocity. Phased arrays can be elctronically scanned or rotated, this is in fact how most modern STAP radars work, e.g. Aegis, etc... and so one can electronically rotate emitted waves in the same way. It's not cheap, but it can be done. My curiosity is along the lines of if you could find a cheap way of rapidly spinning an emitting dipole, what new applications might arise from that. As far as I can determine, no one has yet done the experiments that I have been discussing here in these threads. And so my suggestions/theories are met with comments like, "It's never been done before, why would you want to do it, etc, etc... ? Why do I ask such questions? Just curious or perhaps I'm just plain stupid! But no one has yet been able to categorically refute my assertion. Whenever charge is jerked there is radiation!

Circular polarization... does it have to be synchronous??
Dave:
[snip] Do you have any hobbies? [snip] Technical hobbies, or social hobbies? Other than kibitzing on r.r.a.a? Would you believe that I'm a salsa dancing champion? Actually my wife Kathy (who is a dance genius) and I do a lot of dancing which might be described as a "hobby" of sorts. Let me tell you about one of our recent dance escapades. About three weeks ago my wife and I were in Paris, France, returning from three weeks in Italy where, among other things, we hiked to the top of Vesuvius. But that's another story! All this to say that we stopped over for a night in Paris on our way back to Indialantic from Naples. We took the opportunity to take in dinner and a show at the celebrated Moulin Rouge near Pigalle in Paris. Ouch! That was an expensive evening! It didn't look too bad in Euros, but when the bill showed up on my Visa statement in US$ it was heart stopping! Front row seats at the Moulin Rouge, right up against that venerable125 year old stage, and the multi-course meal with a magnum of champagne was great and as you will note from the rest of my "story" it turned out to be a memorable evening! Kathy and I took the train from CDG airport into the Gare du Nord, and then we took the Paris Metro over to the Pigalle station leaving time to get lost at least three times before we got there. Pigalle as you know is in the center of the "red light district" of Paris. The Moulin Rouge is in the middle of that district on Monmatre, the dandy's, Princes and Princesses do not walk along Pigalle to get to the Moulin Rouge like Kathy and I did, rather they arrive right in front of the door in long black Mercedes limousines. Well... at the Moulin Rouge they serve a first class dinner before the show if you elect to take the dinner and show rather than just the show. During dinner, a small elegant music ensemble is fronted by a talented duet of singers, who are sort of the Parisian equivalent of Edye Gorme and Steve Lawrence, except they sing in French, such songs as "Chanson d'Amour", etc. as enteratinment for the diners. During dinner that part of the main stage that later becomes elevated during the main show is kept at ground level so that people can dance if they wish, during dinner, and before the main show. The Moulin Rouge was packed the night we were there and, as usual whenever there are lots of "observers", there were not many dancers on the floor! Only a couple of pairs, who had consumed all of their champagne by that time got up to dance staggered through a few 'slow dance' steps, and so the floor of the Moulin Rouge looked downright barren. My wife Kathy suggested that WE get up and dance. As a dance instructor, you can well imagine that Kathy is not shy about that kind of thing. My athy always likes to be the first one out on the dance floor. Well the small ensemble and the two singers got round to a number with a certain beat (NC2S) that my wife and I like and so Kathy suggested that we get up on the Moulin Rouge dance floor in front of the whole audience that night and do the Night Club Two Step. Now for those of you who don't know, the NC2S is a modern dance that was "invented" by and American, Buddy Schwimmer of Costa Mesa, CA a few years ago. NC2S is a very elegant dance done to slower music and is very elegant and quite unique. Aside: NC2S is known in the USA but likely not well known in Europe. In case you are not a dancer, you should know that Buddy Schwimmer happens to be the father of Benji Schwimmer who won the "So You Think You Can Dance" show two years ago, and he is also the father of Lacey Schwimmer who was partnered with Lance Bass on the "Dancing with the Stars" show this past fall. Lacey and Lance came in second on the show this year, after that graceful "Brooke Burke" and her partner Derek Hough. And so... "there we were", my wife Kathy and I dancing the elegant Night Club Two Step all alone on the dance floor of the Moulin Rouge in Paris, in front of an International audience of several hundred people. Well... we were surprised! As we danced together to that beautiful slow and sexy music, all of the dinner "chatter" stopped and all eyes in that famous 125 year old theatre, were on us as I showcased Kathy's wonderful dance skills (as the dance partner/leader). The highlight came as the music ended and we walked back to our dinner table. The audience at the Moulin Rouge favored us with a standing ovation! Apparently they had never seen the Night Club Two Step before! Unfortunately no one recorded the happenings at the Moulin Rouge that night, but... for those of you who might be interested to see what the NC2S looks like as it is danced, you see an example on You Tube, just click on... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VoyxrEbZpSw BTW... the Moulin Rouge show after dinner and dancing was spectacular and well worth the $$$$$. I suppose that if it were not a 125 year old tradition in Paris that the Moulin Rouge show mighty be described by Americans as a "high end" Las Vegas show, except that... Las Vegas, NV was not even in existence when the Moulin Rouge started its run 125 years ago! I'd say that one should really describe Las Vegas shows as pale imitations of the Moulin Rouge show! [smile] Guys who are reading this will be pleased to know that not only is the whole show spectacular, but the show girls at Moulin Rouge are spectacular as well. All this to say, Dave.... yes I do have hobbies! And... I am often "asked to dance"... BTW.... I highly recommed dance to any man/boy who wants to be closely asociated with women! Dave, I'd challenge you to name a hobby for a man that is as exciting as a hobby where the man gets to hold attractive girls in his arms and run his hands all over thier bodies for 3-5 minutes at a time and the girls thank him when it's over and asks him if they could do it again soon?

It's saturday night and I gotta go dancing, the girls are waiting... :-) -- Pete K1PO -- Indialantic By-the-Sea, FL care to and Peter, there are no gurus on this newsgroup period When I extended the Gaussian law of statics by making it a dynamic field I proved beyond doubt that radiation was via particles and not waves. David and others denied that you could even bring in the subject of statics when discussing radiation even tho it is known that the force between particles is part and parcel of Maxwells laws. I might add that many joined him in this thinking like lemings. Since that time all of this group have sunk lower and lower with respect to radio. All have demanded a definition of equilibrium no less so all are lacking in science. They have all denied that mathematically my extension of Gauss results in the same mathematics that were arrived at by Maxwell. When I point out that eddy current ( really a field) is the weak force that Einstein was looking for as he was convinced that radiation held the clue he was looking for. Yup they howled at that one too. Ofcourse it was Maxwell who found out that one of the existing laws by the masters was not in equilibrium which he then corrected by adding the displacement current which describes the action of the eddy current field in lifting and applying spin to a charged particle. Howls again from all as this could not be found in any books. Ofcourse this operation in a macro scale is used daily in scrap yards for sorting out materials as well as non destructive testing but again the howls rose again. So I then told them that maxwell based computor programs account for all the forces used in radiation which they could find out for themselves with a optimizer program as long as the input was not slanted towards a planar design so that it may be discarded But then they are self perceived gurus thus don't need to use a computer as all is already known, ala their books that are more than 50 years old. I then informed them that one naval base had tipped all their verticles for better performance by incorporating the weak fork which also can be confirmed using Maxwells laws. Now I am being considered and idiot no less. So I then posed the question as to where the current goes when reaching the top of a fractional wave antenna and the answers I got was that a closed circuit is not required for radiation. And this thinking goes on and on but at no time has anybody come forward to refute my analysis in anyway, mathematics, computor programs or what ever. This whole story reminds me of the Yagi invention that was dismissed totally by the Japanese intelligensia but embrace by the rest of the world such that the Japanese never used the Yagi design thru out the length of the war which was their loss. Peter, all of the above has been pointed out to this group of self perceived gurus over the past few years but all has been denied as it is no where in the books to be read. When I joined this group more than a decade ago Roy W7EL said he was going to expose all the old wives tales that floated around including all the newly touted sciences that were being tossed around but his silence has been defining while at the same time Snakespere has been prancing around in his fishnet pants while talking in tongues. Ian is still demon strating how to solder a connector on coax while the Naval instructor Woods in Washington is in total belief that the US navy is using tilted antennas for superior performance. No Peter, there are no gurus on this newsgroup as I have one time or another proved that they are nothing more than talking heads beyond doubt. As an aside Peter on another subject I have no bone to pick with the professional societies only the Universities for giving away information provided by tax payers money and thus was not theirs to remove from publics eyes Best regards Art Unwin.......KB9MZ.......xg (uk) |

Regards, JS John I am confident about my analysis. Scientists have not been able to explain anything in radio that procedes at the or near the speed of light or explain how communication is resolved. I have provided an explanation that is duplicated in many ways every day and vindicated by Maxwells equations. Reviewing the URL you supplied. The photograph is not a simple proof that it appears to be. Camera pictures are notorious in fooling people into falible interpretatations. However you can believe what you want. I would point out that I have melded many things and aproaches such that all mesh in a single conclusion None of these separate aproaches have had any errors pointed out whether it be mathematics or otherwise. I am not a programmer so there is no way I could have injected such a complicated scenario into all the programs now available. Nor could I have invented the weak force that Einstein was convinced resided in the analysis of radiation. On the other hand there are many photographs available of the Lock Ness monster, alien space craft and alabaster statues with tears coming from the eyes. By the way, compare different aproaches of resolving radiation analysis and check which form provides the minimum losses and you will find that planar antennas just don't measure up versus antennas in equilibrium. On the other hand if the field of an eddy current is not the weak force that Einstein forcast or predicted then where and what is this force that propels a wave, presumably without spin that knocks out what I have suggested? At the same time does it fit exactgly the jigsaw pussle that Maxwell left us with the puzzle turned over so the picture could not be pre determined? And as a finale I see particles occilating possibly in tandem form that gives the impression that the particles arenot interconnected in string form but a series of interactions between particles that operate in their own right als H2O in molecular but unbound form as with mass Best regards...... good effort but no cigar. I would aim for best results at the computer programs or finding the true weak force, or determining how a electrical wave travels with intelligence or the center of all proove that the mathematics as applied to gaussian boundary that is made dynamic under a time varying field DOES NOT equate with the mathematical laws of Maxwell and last of all that the term equilibrium has NO PLACE in the laws devised by the masters with respect to the Universe. I left out the part that a radiater must be straight as expoused by some pseudo experts in the radio field as well as to how the addition that Maxwells made to his laws provide the mathematics for the tilting action on a radiator for minimum lossand the many other things I have pointed out My very best regards and best wishes in any endeavor that you wish to undertake in an effort to proove me in error. There will be some talking in tongues by the group but I am absolutely positive there will be no fresh revalations other than just words provided over the years which have meant nothing other than the intent to hurt.
