The CENDO algorithm is an improved swarm intelligence optimization algorithm based on the dandelion optimization (DO) algorithm 36, inspired by the growth and reproduction process of dandelions. The ...

A multi-layer metasurface (MTS) design is proposed in this paper, which simultaneously enables linear-to-circular (LTC) polarization conversion and decoupling functionality for a 3 × 3 antenna ...

This blog installment discusses common types of beamforming algorithms as well as a framework to develop and test your own beamformers. Phased-array systems have many advantages over single antennas.

In Part 1, we introduced the phased array concept, beam steering and array gain. In Part 2, we presented the concept of grating lobes and beam squint. In this section, we begin with a discussion of ...

Phased array technology is far from new. Phased-array antennas have been used for decades in a variety of military applications. Now, however, their use in 5G systems in the Band 2 frequency range is ...

Phased array antenna systems are at the cusp of ubiquity. We now see Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) antenna systems on WiFi routers. Soon phased array weather radar systems will help to predict ...

This is the second article of our three-part series on phased array antenna patterns. In Part 1, we introduced the phased array steering concept and looked at the influencers on array gain. In Part 2, ...

This blog discusses several challenges behind developing mmWave radar systems for the next generation of smart cars and trucks and looks at new capabilities recently added to electronic design ...

IT’S ALL PHYSICS. How things work, that is. Well, maybe a little chemistry too in some cases. But I might be a little biased in my opinion given that I’m an applied physicist by training. Radio?

For some applications single element antennas are unable to meet the gain or radiation pattern requirements. Combining several single antenna elements in an array can be a possible solution. This ...

Traditional cable and satellite — and even connected TV livestreaming — face growing competition for TV viewing time among specific audience segments, in particular, as their adoption of linear ...
