    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; array figure of merit; fundamental limits; wideband array; wide scan-angle array; strongly coupled asymmetric dipole array; periodic loading; soft Vivaldi array; 21cm Cosmology; Epoch of Reionization; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Wideband, wide-scan antenna arrays are a promising candidate for the future wireless networks and as well as an essential part of experimental radio astrophysics. Understanding the underline physics of the element performance in the array environment is paramount to develop and improve the performance of array systems. READ MORE

  2. 2. Millimeter-Wave Active Array Antennas Integrating Power Amplifier MMICs through Contactless Interconnects

    Author : Wan-Chun Liao; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; power amplifier; MMIC; Integrated active antenna; contactless transition;

    Abstract : Next-generation mobile wireless technologies demand higher data capacity than the modern sub-6 GHz technologies can provide. With abundantly available bandwidth, millimeter waves (e.g., Ka/K bands) can offer data rates of around 10 Gbit/s; however, this shift to higher frequency bands also leads to at least 20 dB more free-space path loss.

  3. 3. On millimeter and submillimeter wave focal plane arrays implemented with MEMS waveguide switches

    Author : Henrik Frid; Joachim Oberhammer; Vessen Vassilev; Mikro- och nanosystemteknik KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Extended Hemispherical Lens; Beam Steering; Focal Plane Array FPA ; Ray-Tracing; RF MEMS; waveguide switch; micromachined waveguide; submillimeter-wave; rectangular waveguide; terahertz; lenses; antenna theory; silicon; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis presents research towards enabling micromachined millimeter and submillimeter wave focal plane arrays (FPAs). The FPAs operate under the following principle: a switch network consisting of microelectromechanical (MEMS) switches, integrated with micromachined waveguides, is used to feed an array of antenna elements, located in the focal plane of a high-gain quasi-optical system.
