A Second-Iteration Square Koch Fractal Slot Antenna for UHF Downlink Telemetry Applications in CubeSat Small Satellites by Jorge Simon, Jorge Flores-Troncoso, Jose Luis Alvarez-Flores, Leonel Soriano-Equigua, Marco Cardenas-Juarez, Armando Arce, Edgar Briones, Jorge Sosa-Pedroza

“…Hence, the commercial FR4-G10 antenna substrate can be preferred because of its low-cost and admissible performance at 458 MHz, which is a frequency in the UHF band that is commonly used for telemetry, tracking, and command downlinks of CubeSats. Measurements show that the proposed antenna exhibits a reflection coefficient of −16.53 dB, a bandwidth of 22.62 MHz at −10 dB, a VSWR of 1.3508, a normalized impedance of 0.794 − j0.173 at 50 Ω, and a directivity of 2.24 dBi. …”

Lifespan trajectories of motor control and neural oscillations: A systematic review of magnetoencephalography insights by Xinbi Zhang, Mingming Huang, Xiaoxia Yuan, Xiaoke Zhong, Shengyu Dai, Yingying Wang, Qiang Zhang, Kanya Wongwitwichote, Changhao Jiang

“…These developmental and degenerative patterns are linked to neural oscillatory activity, which can be assessed via magnetoencephalography (MEG) to gain insights into motor planning, execution, termination, and command initiation. This review systematically examined age-related changes in MC and neural oscillations, centering on movement-related beta desynchronization (MRBD), post-movement beta rebound (PMBR), and movement-related gamma synchrony (MRGS). …”
