This work introduces a theoretical extension of the characteristic mode formulation for analysing the vertical electric dipole lying above a lossy dielectric half-space. As the conventional characteristic formulation fails to maintain the orthogonality of the characteristic field modes over the infinite sphere, an alternate modal formulation is proposed here to maintain the orthogonality for both the current and field modes. The modal results are found to match closely with its method of moment counterparts. Later, the modes of an isolated dipole with no ground plane have been used to predict the role of the lossy ground plane through a theory of the linear combination of the eigenvectors. The proposed formulations have been studied with different heights from the ground plane and are compared with the direct modal solutions to validate its accuracy. It helps to provide a thorough understanding of how the isolated modes interact among each other to constitute the perturbed modes in the presence of the lossy half-space. It can find application to include the lossy earth effect in the study of the lightning fields and the path loss modelling of the antennas over the lossy ground.

The emission pattern from a classical dipole located above and oriented perpendicular to a metallic or dielectric half space is calculated for a dipole driven at constant amplitude. This is a problem considered originally by Sommerfeld and analyzed s ubsequently by numerous authors. In contrast to most previous treatments, however, we focus on the energy flow in the metal or dielectric. It is shown that the radial Poynting vector in the metal points inwards when the frequency of the dipole is below the surface plasmon resonance frequency. In this case, energy actually flows of the interface at small radii. The Joule heating in the metal is also calculated and it is shown explicitly that Poyntings theorem holds for a cylindrical surface in the metal. When the metal is replaced by a dielectric having permittivity less than that of the medium in which the dipole is immersed, it is found that energy flows out of the interface for sufficiently large radii. In all cases it is assumed that the imaginary part of the permittivity of the metal or dielectric is much less than unity.
With the rise of artificial magnetism and metamaterials, the toroidal family recently attracts more attention for its unique properties. Here we propose an all-dielectric pentamer metamolecule consisting of nano-cylinders with two toroidal dipolar re sonances, whose frequencies, EM distributions and Q factor can be efficiently tuned due to the additional electric dipole mode offered by a central cylinder. To further reveal the underlying coupling effects and formation mechanism of toroidal responses, the multiple scattering theory is adopted. It is found that the first toroidal dipole mode, which can be tuned from 2.21 to 3.55 $mu$m, is mainly induced by a collective electric dipolar resonance, while the second one, which can be tuned from 1.53 to 1.84 $mu$m, relies on the cross coupling of both electric and magnetic dipolar responses. The proposed low-loss metamolecule and modes coupling analyses may pave the way for active design of toroidal responses in advanced optical devices.

With the rapid development of advanced electromagnetic manipulation technologies, researchers and engineers are starting to study smart surfaces that can achieve enhanced coverages, high reconfigurability, and are easy to deploy. Among these efforts, simultaneously transmitting and reflecting intelligent omni-surface (STAR-IOS) is one of the most promising categories. Although pioneering works have demonstrated the benefits of STAR-IOSs in terms of its wireless communication performance gain, several important issues remain unclear including practical hardware implementations and physics-compliant models for STAR-IOSs. In this paper, we answer these pressing questions of STAR-IOSs by discussing four practical hardware implementations of STAR-IOSs, as well as three hardware modelling methods and five channel modelling methods. These discussions not only categorize existing smart surface technologies but also serve as a physicscompliant pipeline for further investigating the STAR-IOSs.
Microstip antenna topology is commonly loaded with a narrow slot to manipulate the resonance frequency or impedance bandwidth. However, the tuning of the resonance frequency or impedance bandwidth results in the variation of the current and field dis tributions. In this regard, this work adopts the concept of characteristic modes to gain an initial understanding of the perturbation mechanism of the rectangular patch when loaded with a slot. The performance of microstrip antennas with finite ground plane is then studied using full-wave simulation. It has been found that the distribution of the induced current density is highly dependent on the orientation of the slot The incorporation of a narrow slot suppresses the nearby orthogonal eigen mode and, as a consequence, the radiation behavior is affected. Specifically, in the presence of biological tissues in the near-field region, both antenna input impedance properties and the realized gain are dependent on the slot orientation. Different examples are included for understanding the impact of slot loading on the energy absorption by biological tissues, by calculating the the specific absorption rate (SAR). The proposed analysis facilitates the design of miniaturized antenna geometries for biomedical applications via systematic loading of narrow slots.
A unification of characteristic mode decomposition for all method-of-moment formulations of field integral equations describing free-space scattering is derived. The work is based on an algebraic link between impedance and transition matrices, the la tter of which was used in early definitions of characteristic modes and is uniquely defined for all scattering scenarios. This also makes it possible to extend the known application domain of characteristic mode decomposition to any other frequency-domain solver capable of generating transition matrices, such as finite difference or finite element methods. The formulation of characteristic modes using a transition matrix allows for the decomposition of induced currents and scattered fields from arbitrarily shaped objects, providing high numerical dynamics and increased stability, removing the issue of spurious modes, offering good control of convergence, and significantly simplifying modal tracking. Algebraic properties of the transition matrix are utilized to show that characteristic mode decomposition of lossy objects fails to deliver orthogonal far fields. All aforementioned properties and steps are demonstrated on several numerical examples for both surface- and volume-based method-of-moment formulations.
