The proposed antenna has been thoroughly investigated and the results are presented in the paper. The conventional patch antenna fabricated on common substrates always resonates at its dominant TM10 mode which produces the radiation field along its broadside direction. In the present investigation, the same microstrip antenna is designed on conventional substrate with centrally located inductive septums beneath the patch, with a view to develop a new resonant mode which will produce radiation like dominant TM10 mode. The speciality of the proposed antenna is to excite a new resonant mode with good impedance bandwidth while the traditional dominant TM10 mode is kept unaltered. A thorough quantitative analysis is presented to justify the reason of generation of new resonant mode along with the traditional dominant TM10 mode. An easy and handful formulation has been established for calculation of the frequency for new resonant mode as a function of antenna parameters and the gap between the septums. The proposed idea has been verified through a commercial software package for a patch operating in C band and an excellent agreement is revealed.展开更多

The conditionis characterized by an outward protrusion of the inner esophageal wall. Midesophagealdiverticula are relatively rare and may coexist with diffuse esophagealspasm. However, the potential esophageal motility disorders associated withthese lesions are frequently overlooked in clinical practice. The use of endoscopicinterventions may offer a novel approach for the alleviation of dysphagia associatedwith this condition.CASE SUMMARYWe present a case of a 74-year-old woman with dysphagia, diagnosed with midesophagealdiverticulum and diffuse esophageal spasm. Due to her physical condition,submucosal tunneling endoscopic septum division (STESD) was initiallyperformed for the diverticulum. One month later, the esophageal spasm wastreated using per-oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM). This combined treatmentsignificantly improved her dysphagia, and she was discharged.CONCLUSIONSTESD and POEM are effective and safe for the treatment of dysphagia caused bymid-esophageal diverticula with diffuse esophageal spasm.展开更多
