The transformation of the automotive industry towards ubiquitous connection of vehicles with all kind of external agents (V2X) motivates the use of a wide range of frequencies for several applications. Millimeter-wave (mmWave) connectivity represents a par ...
In this study, we will discuss the engineering construction of a special sixth generation (6G) antenna, based on the fractal called Minkowski's loop. The antenna has the shape of this known fractal, set at four iterations, to obtain maximum performance. Th ...
RF MEMS piezoelectric acoustic resonators are the essential building blocks for RF filters used in RF front-end modules for wireless mobile communication due to their compact size in the MHz-GHz frequency range, high Quality factors and large relative band ...
Planar microstrip resonators suitable for material characterization application are presented in this paper. The prototype consists of three resonators fed through four ports in a planar dielectric substrate without any additional resonators. The resonator ...
In this paper we present a technique to broaden the beamwidth of conventional patch microstrip antennas by using parasitic elements. This technique allows to keep the main advantages of microstrip antennas while increasing their beamwidth. We provide guide ...
Metasurfaces (MSs) are the 2-D equivalent of metaterials, the latter being a class of artificial engineered materials exhibiting peculiar electromagnetic properties [1], [2]. Generally constructed as arrays of deeply sub-wavelength resonant particles on a ...
In the field of model order reduction for frequency response problems, the minimal rational interpolation (MRI) method has been shown to be quite effective. However, in some cases, numerical instabilities may arise when applying MRI to build a surrogate mo ...
This paper demonstrates the capability of locally resonant metamaterials (LRMs) for creating compact metallic waveguide E- and H-bends, which are simultaneously working as bandpass filters. For creating these bent meta-filters, we use composite pin-pipe wa ...
This paper presents a novel impedance-sensing device and its related microfluidics system developed to characterize the macroscopical properties of bacteria and microparticles. The system is based on a phase-sensitive detector with square-waves excitation ...
