The problems of the uneven strip shape and low efficiency of tea de-enzyming and carding machines in the working process were addressed by analyzing the trajectory of tea particles and establishing a force model diagram of tea particles in the pot slot. The three-dimensional geometric model of the tea de-enzyming and carding machine was drawn using UG software, and the simulation model of tea particles was established using EDEM software. The work efficiency of the tea de-enzyming and carding machine was improved, and the rate of broken tea was reduced using the EDEM software to simulate the movement of tea particles in the pot slot under different heights of the convex bar, pot slot angle of inclination, and number of slots. The average velocity and interaction force curve of tea particles were obtained. The influence of the number of slots, the inclination angle of the slot, and the height of the convex bar on the effect of tea into strips were verified using a scheme design based on the quadratic regression orthogonal combination rotation test, and experimental research based on three factors and three levels was carried out. Design-Expert 11 software (Stat-Ease, Minneapolis, MN, USA) was used to optimize the response surface and analyze the regression model of the relevant test data. The 6CSL-800 tea de-enzyming (Anji Yuanfeng Tea Machinery Co., Ltd., Huzhou, China) and carding machine (Anji Yuanfeng Tea Machinery Co., Ltd., Huzhou, China) was used as the verification test prototype, six sets of verification tests were carried out, and the test results showed that the maximum value of the strip rate index and the minimum value of the broken tea rate index were obtained. The order of the indicators affecting the bar-type rate and broken tea rate of the de-enzyming and carding machine from high to low is as follows: the height of the convex bar, the inclination angle of the slot body, and the number of slots bodies. When the height of the convex bar was 10 mm, the inclination angle of the slot was 90°, the number of slots was 12, the bar-type rate was 89.45%, and the broken tea rate was 1.63%. The prediction results of the regression model of the bar-type rate and broken tea rate of the tea de-enzyming and carding machine were verified by employing six sets of control tests with the 6CSL-800 tea de-enzyming and carding machine as the validation test prototype. The actual values of the bar-type rate obtained from the six sets of control tests were 88.19%, 90.37%, and 87.33% (1,2,3 group), and the actual values of the broken tea rate were 1.66%, 1.69%, and 1.61% (4,5,6 group), with average values of 88.63% and 1.65%. The control test was basically consistent with the results of parameter optimization. The processed finished tea has good quality, which can provide theoretical reference for the optimization and design of tea de-enzyming and carding machines and similar tea machines in the future.

In the proposed design, a Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) feeding mechanism is utilized in conjunction with a higher-order mode Dielectric Resonator Antenna (DRA), which is excited by a U-slot aperture on the top side of the ground plane. This structure is aimed for 5G millimeter-wave bands, N257, and N258. Both sides of SIW are clad with 0.035mm copper with a permittivity of 2.2, Rogers 5880 is used as substrate. In contrast, DRA has a permittivity of 10. The design achieves a notable impedance bandwidth of 25-31.12 GHz (6.12 GHz or 21.8%) due to the excitation of multiple resonances of DRA modes. It delivers high gain values of 8.5 dBi at 25.8 GHz, 8.9 dBi at 27.5 GHz, and 7.2 dBi at 30 GHz, with radiation efficiency exceeding 98% within the resonance band. The radiation patterns demonstrate good co-polarized performance, validating the broadside transmission. All simulations were conducted using Ansys HFSS version 2023.

The SIW antenna suffers from the narrow bandwidth for a single cavity and single resonant. Defected ground structure (DGS) with a dual cavity was the solution to solve narrow bandwidth by resulting in hybrid resonance. The hybrid resonance with 14.83% impedance bandwidth is proposed in this antenna design. The first resonance resulted from the combination of the TE101 modes from inner and outer HMSIW cavities while the second resonance resulted from the combination of the strong TE101 and the weak TE102 mode from the inner HMSIW cavity and the addition of the weak TE101 from the outer HMSIW cavity. The measurement antenna design has a broadband antenna with a 14.31% (5.71 – 6.59 GHz) impedance bandwidth by using substrate Rogers RO 5880.

This paper explores the potential of phase change materials (PCM) for dynamically tuning the frequency response of a dumbbell u-slot defected ground structure (DGS)-based band stop filter. The DGSs are designed using co-planar waveguide (CPW) line structure on top of a barium strontium titanate (Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3) (BST) thin film. BST film is used as the high-dielectric material for the planar DGS. Lower insertion loss of less than −2 dB below the lower cutoff frequency, and enhanced band-rejection with notch depth of −39.64 dB at 27.75 GHz is achieved by cascading two-unit cells, compared to −12.26 dB rejection with a single-unit cell using BST thin film only. Further tunability is achieved by using a germanium telluride (GeTe) PCM layer. The electrical properties of PCM can be reversibly altered by transitioning between amorphous and crystalline phases. We demonstrate that incorporating a PCM layer into a DGS device allows for significant tuning of the resonance frequency: a shift in resonance frequency from 30.75 GHz to 33 GHz with a frequency shift of 2.25 GHz is achieved, i.e., 7.32% tuning is shown with a single DGS cell. Furthermore, by cascading two DGS cells with PCM, an even wider tuning range is achievable: a shift in resonance frequency from 27 GHz to 30.25 GHz with a frequency shift of 3.25 GHz is achieved, i.e., 12.04% tuning is shown by cascading two DGS cells. The results are validated through simulations and measurements, showcasing excellent agreement.

A circular patch antenna with double slots has been proposed for multiple band applications. The proposed Pac-man antenna works in the range of C and X band. The antenna has been structured and broke down for FR4 substrate with dielectric constant of 4.4. This reception antenna can be utilized for wireless neighborhood (WLAN 2.324 GHz) applications, radar applications (9.484 GHz) and 4G applications (5.48 GHz). Moreover, a close by correlation of the proposed framework with the existing circular patch antenna is shown to check the precision of the proposed antenna. This plan has been demonstrated to upgrade the bandwidth and stretch out the task to numerous groups because of the nearness of “U”-formed opening in the patch. Likewise, the proposed plan is dissected regarding voltage standing wave ratio, gain and radiation design.
