Future antennas consist of low-profile smart multi-functional radiating apertures which support multi-beams of multi-bands with multi-polarizations. They can scan the surrounding environment, choose the band of interest and generate the required beam shape. Such antenna can be utilized in...

Design of Low-Profile Multi-Band Microwave Antennas and Components Using Metamaterial-Based Electromagnetic Bandgap Structures
DownloadSpring 2023
This thesis investigates applications of metamaterial-based electromagnetic bandgap structures, or MTM-EBGs. MTM-EBGs are uniplanar, compact, and often fully printable, making them ideal candidates for integration into planar topologies. This differs from many other metamaterial-based structures...

Fall 2021
The purpose of this dissertation is to generate better solutions for the existing problems in the wireless communications and navigation systems by designing antennas with special characteristics such as circular polarization (CP), tilted beam, transparency, high gain, front to back ratio (FBR)...
