 Mon Oct 24 16:07:22 2022, Dylan Wells, Creating the matching circuit design
|
The first part of designing the matching crictuit was choosing a frequency range to match over. We chose 100 MHz to 1000 MHz.
The geometric mean of this range in 316.227 MHz, which is the ideal frequeny to match to.
Then, we need the impedance of the antenna we are matching to. |

The pueoSim v1.0 IceFinal files were missing information on the RF direction and information needed to see an amplitude spectrum. I asked Will, |

Sun Jun 18 21:32:03 2023, Dylan Wells, Default Toyon Antenna Simulation
|
To act as our comparison to the evolved antennas while plotting, we have done a simulation of pueoSim with 4,000,000 neutrinos for the measured toyon
gains found in /fs/ess/PAS1960/buildingPueoSim/pueoBuilder/components/pueoSim/data/antennas/measured
In order to run the jobs, I used the runJobs.sh script found in /fs/ess/PAS1960/buildingPueoSim which submits job runs of 40,000 neutrinos |

Tue Jul 18 22:04:22 2023, Dylan Wells, Parallelizing pueoSim jobs
|
Currently, the PUEO loop runs pueoSim with 1 pueoSim process per job submitted.
Each of these jobs has 1 node and 8 cores, however, pueoSim only needs a single core to run.
Here is some data I collected by running the same seed of pueoSim with different numbers of cores in the job: |

|
Previously, we have tried to straighten the sides of the best-evolved curved antenna in elog
229. However, there were potential issues with how closely this line resembled the curve of the antenna.
So, I attempted to create another straightened sides antenna using a linear regression model to find the best fitting line for the curve to create |

Mon Mar 6 23:25:12 2023, Bryan Reynolds, Retroactive AREA update: December 26, 2022 AREA run- No linear freq. dependence test
|
The following is a run summary of the AREA test without the linear frequency dependence on the gain, with the frequency fixed (i.e. the same gain pattern
is produced for all frequencies). This run was a preliminary test of the AREA algorithm after fixing long-standing errors in the algorithm and finding
that the initial constaints implemented did not work with the frequency dependence on gain. Results from this run did show a "proof-of-concept" |

The following is a run summary of an AREA test using 100 individuals per generation, without the linear frequency dependence on the

a larger NPop (100 individuals per generation) after seeing promising results in the previous test that only used 20 individuals per generation. The percentages |
