Miniaturization of Microwave to Millimeter-Wave Integrated Waveguides and their Applications
DownloadFall 2019
The integration of waveguide technology at the planar level has been a crucial development for the successful realization of 5G, the future fifth generation cellular network. The demand for mobile networks with faster speeds, lower latencies, and denser connectivity scenarios continues to drive...

Theory and Applications of a Uniplanar Transmission-Line Metamaterial-Inspired Electromagnetic Bandgap Structure
DownloadFall 2015
A multitude of planar electromagnetic bandgap structures (EBGs) have been proposed for the suppression of parallel-plate waveguide (PPW) and surface-wave (SW) modes at microwave frequencies. Some of these structures have been well-modelled with transmission-line theory, however, these structures...
