Title:
Printable metamaterial RF lenses for broadband satellite antenna applications
Agreement Number:
946232
Agreement Value:
$132,000.00
Agreement Date:
Mar 6, 2020 - Sep 30, 2023
Description:
The proposed project will address printable technology to implement metamaterial based RF lenses to enhance the performance of antennas used in broadband satellite communications systems. Composite Right-Hand Left-Hand Transmission Lines (CRHLH) will be used to add re-configurability to the proposed lenses. New printable technologies making use of electrically smart materials based on ferro-electric and ferro-magnetic printable inks are proposed.
The RF lenses will add additional layers of control to the antenna by re-shaping the radiation pattern while adding agility against operational and environmental conditions.
