With the escalating need for greater data traffic and the proliferation of connected devices, millimeter-wave (mm-Wave) and Terahertz (THz) frequencies have become pivotal elements, opening numerous possibilities in diverse wireless communication scenarios. Advanced antenna systems, such as phased arrays, have transformed wireless connectivity significantly. They facilitate adaptive beamforming, allowing signals to be precisely directed, thereby enhancing both range and reliability with pinpoint accuracy.
The primary objective of this Ph.D. project is to pioneer novel and high-performance phased array antenna systems with multifunctional capabilities tailored for MM-Wave/THz Communications. These designs will be thoroughly assessed using system-level simulation tools like CST, ADS and MATLAB. Additionally, the project will encompass the critical phases of prototyping and laboratory testing, targeting applications in user equipment and base stations.
