Microwave cavities, or microwave resonators, are used in a variety of applications, including filters, oscillators, frequency meters, and tuned amplifiers. The ever-increasing demand for compact and/or portable telecommunication systems drives the need for ...
In this communication we propose the concept of a circularly polarized reflectarray (RA) antenna capable of independent beam-switching in both K and Ka bands. The RA unit cell comprises one microstrip ring per each operation frequency. Each ring is integra ...

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 ...
Analogues of many radio frequency (RF) antenna designs such as the half-wave dipole and Yagi-Uda have been successfully adapted to the optical frequency regime, opening the door for important advances in biosensing, photodetection, and emitter control. Exa ...
We use numerical simulations based on the surface integral technique to study the detection limit of plasmonic trapping with realistic dipole antennas. The induced plasmon resonance shift due to the coupling between an antenna and a nanoparticle is studied ...
The joint synthesis of the spatial power pattern and polarization of arbitrary arrays is addressed. Specifically, the proposed approach gives the solution to a frequently encountered problem, namely the array design (i.e., the determination of the radiatin ...

In this work a conceptual design of a conformal antenna array is presented for a millimeter-wave antenna system, optimized for low-cost mass production in PCB technology. The conformal array is constituted by four cube faces with two antennas realized on e ...
This paper reports on the design and fabrication of a fully integrated antenna beam steering concept for wireless sensor nodes. The conformal array circumcises four cube faces with a silicon core mounted on each face. Every silicon core represents a 2 by 1 ...
A slot array placed on the face of a cavity realized in substrate-integrated waveguide technology is presented. Guidelines to design similar antennas are provided. The design has been done with the help of commercial software. The result is a low-cost, dir ...
