Abstract:
In today’s technologically driven world, antennas play an essential role in enabling wireless communications over long distances and allow communities to interact on a global scale. Typically, this is done using large networks of antenna systems on the ground and in space to ensure signals reliably arrive at their destinations, which can be very expensive in terms of replacement cost and maintenance as the number of nodes increase. We shall be discussing a new method for deploying space-borne antennas via CubeSats that will enable high speed communications with the ground and other satellites

Abstract:
Highly directive antennas with beam steering capabilities are needed to overcome high path-loss, mitigate against interference from unwanted signals and to ensure network connectivity for the next generation 5G millimetre wave communication systems. Phased arrays using phase shifters are the conventional approach of achieving beam steerable antennas. However, due to the insertion loss incurred by phase shifters and the high cost of acquiring phase shifters, alternative solutions that offers lower loss and cost are being researched. This work proposes two beam steerable antenna solutions that o

Abstract:
Traditional antennas have a lot of limitations as their performance is usually fixed by their initial geometry. On the other hand, modern communication systems are getting way to complicated compared to their earlier counterparts. This necessitates some special types of smart or reconfigurable antennas, which can dynamically adapt to the requirements of the communication systems more effectively. Using conventional single functional antennas is therefore not an efficient approach in these sort of communication systems.
