The present thesis deals with the electromagnetic modeling, design and practical implementation of a planar antenna for the reception of satellite broadcasting services from user terminals on board automotive platforms. This antenna is intended to address ...
Fire monitoring and management in Mediterranean countries such as Greece is of paramount importance. Almost every summer massive forest fires break out, causing severe destruction and even human life losses. Thus, European initiatives in the area of Earth ...
With an approach between theatre, urban analysis, mapping and deconstruction, this 'glide' through Brasilia is an attempt to understand its urban tissue, formed through architectural action and spontaneous appropriation. In the city laid out between a mode ...
One of the most promising bands for long-range radiocommunications is the Ka-band (25-40 GHz). This is due to the existence of a natural radio transmission window around 30 GHz. Both terrestrial and satellite transmission systems are planned on this freque ...
Numerous mobile applications and services require that devices are aware of their location. Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) are the predominant enabling technology. But in order to deliver continuous and accurate location information provided by ...
In this letter, a compact single-layer, single-feed, dual-frequency microstrip antenna with a high frequency ratio is proposed. This antenna has a broadside and symmetrical radiation patterns suitable for space-borne applications. The prototype was fabrica ...

Personal digital assistants or mobile phones applications are not anymore restricted to multimedia or wireless communications, but have been extended to handle Global Positioning System (GPS) functionalities. Consequently, the growing market of GPS capable ...
In recent years, there has been a large increase in the number of small satellites being designed, built and launched. Due to resource constraints, these spacecraft have not generally included any propulsion capability, and this has severely limited missio ...
We present a novel MEMS inertial sensor that directly measures the gravity gradient in order to sense the relative orientation of a satellite with respect to the Earth. An Earths ensor provides an orbiting satellite with a vector towards the Earth center. ...
Advances in remote sensing technologies have allowed us to send an ever-increasing number of satellites in orbit around Earth. As a result, satellite image archives have been constantly increasing in size in the last few years (now reaching petabyte sizes) ...
