What is Graphical User Interface (GUI)

Chapter 6
Handbook of Research on Emerging Designs and Applications for Microwave and Millimeter Wave Circuits
A form of user interface that allows users to interact with electronic devices through graphical icons and visual indicators such as secondary notation, instead of text-based user interfaces, typed command labels or text navigation.

Abstract
This chapter describes the design and modeling of horn-based phased-array antennas using analytical approaches. Phased-array antennas are important devices for 5G wireless technologies since their radiation patterns can be reinforced in the desired direction and provide high directivity, which can be suppressed in the undesired direction. In this chapter, analytical analysis has been used for single horn element design. Various analytical formulations proposed by previous researchers were comprehensively reviewed. Once a single horn element has been designed, N number of horn elements were arranged in a 2D array to become a horn-based phased-array antenna. The universal antenna factor formula was used to model the phased-array antenna. The uncertainty of the antenna factor formula was studied since the formula has not mentioned which type of antenna element is suitable to be implemented. The calculated and simulated gain and radiation patterns for the horn-based phased-array antenna obtained from the analytical formula and commercial EM simulator were compared and analyzed.

Hyperspectral Microwave Atmospheric Sounder (HyMAS) Graphical User Interface Design
It is a type of user interface that allows users to interact with electronic devices through graphical icons and visual indicators such as secondary notation, instead of text-based user interfaces, typed command labels or text navigation. GUIs were introduced in reaction to the perceived steep learning curve of command-line interfaces (CLIs) which require commands to be typed on a computer keyboard.

Community of Production
Interface facilitating human-machine interaction, with graphic elements. Rather than inputting data and instruction in text format, GUI’s user controls its elaborator directly manipulating objects: graphic images, menus, buttons, boxes, and so forth. The Interface translates user actions into machine commands, thus representing an intermediate normative zone between man and machine, a zone governed by code produced by software houses.
