1. Far-field pattern synthesis of transmitarray antennas using convex optimization techniques
University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysikAbstract : Transmitarrays antennas (TAs) can be seen as the planar counterpart of optical lenses. They are composed of thin radiating elements (unit cells) which introduce different local phase shifts on an incident electromagnetic wave, emitted by a primary source, and re-radiate it. READ MORE

2. Dual Polarized Geodesic Lens
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Gradient-index (GRIN) lens antennas, such as the Luneburg lens, posses attractive electromagnetic properties. The smooth change in refractive index ensures no internal reflections and the focusing of the electromagnetic waves results in a directive antenna. The main challenge of the design of a GRIN lens is acquiring the required refractive index. READ MORE

3. Dual-polarized feed for mmWave lens antennas
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : The fact of being bulky and not very cost-efficient made lens antennas not to be takenmuch into account in the past. Nowadays, this kind of antennas has attracted moreattention due to the increasing demand of higher frequencies in 5G, where lensesbecome considerably smaller. READ MORE

4. Low-dispersive Leaky-wave Antennas: A Viable Approach for Fifth Generation (5G) mmWave Base Station Antennas
University essay from KTH/Elektroteknisk teori och konstruktionAbstract : In this work, a method to achieve reduced beam-squint in fully metallic leaky-wave antennas is proposed and its applicability for high frequency, high gain, base station antennas in future communication networks is indicated. The antenna is built in gap waveguide technology, where the fundamental mode is allowed to leak by removal of one of the waveguide walls. READ MORE

5. Non-Coherent Radio-Based Positioning
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknikAbstract : In this thesis, a new Angle-of-Arrival (AoA) technique is used to determine the direction of a target in an outdoor environment using Radio Frequency (RF) signals. This technique estimates the AoA based on the difference between the Received Signal Strength Indicators (RSSI) from two/four directive antennas. READ MORE
