Zhang, H. (author)In recent decades, dielectric lens antennas have been more and more adopted and developed for sensing and imaging applications at sub-millimeter (sub-mm) wavelengths because they can achieve high gain while keeping their physical size and weight acceptable at these wavelengths. More recently, as low-loss and low-cost lens materials have become...doctoral thesis 2024

Chiasson, David (author), Lin, Yuan (author), Kok, M. (author), Shull, Peter (author)Hyperbolic localization measures the time difference of arrivals (TDOAs) of signals to determine the location of a wireless source or receiver. Traditional methods depend on precise clock synchronization between nodes so that time measurements from independent devices can be meaningfully compared. Imperfect synchronization is often the dominant...journal article 2023

(author), Llombart, Nuria (author)This article presents the development of a focal plane array (FPA) for terahertz imaging applications with a near diffraction-limited resolution achieved through a very tight sampling of the focal plane. The antenna array is integrated with direct detectors in a 22-nm CMOS technology and operates from 200 to 600 GHz. The tight sampling of the...journal article 2023

Liu, Changrui (author)Relative localization (RL) is essential for the successful operation of micro air vehicle (MAV) swarms. Achieving accurate 3-D RL in infrastructure-free and GPS-denied environments with only distance information is a challenging problem that has not been satisfactorily solved. In this work, based on the range-based peer-to-peer RL using the...master thesis 2022

Liu, Jiang (author)In recent years, short-range reliable wireless system with high data rate and low power consumption has drawn sufficient attention and is in great demand in various applications. For biomedical implantable applications such as neural sensing and Brain-computer Interfaces (BCIs), due to the increasing number of sensing channels and elements, not...master thesis 2022

Luo, Xiaoyao (author)This thesis covers two topics. The first one is signal design for accurate Time-of-Arrival estimation using a number of frequency separated signals. Rather than use a full UWB band, we will use sparse subband signals spanning the full band to construct a new virtual UWB signal. To evaluate the performance of the constructed signal, Cramer-Rao...master thesis 2022

Li, S. (author), de Wagter, C. (author), de Croon, G.C.H.E. (author)Wireless ranging measurements have been proposed for enabling multiple Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs) to localize with respect to each other. However, the high-dimensional relative states are weakly observable due to the scalar distance measurement. Hence, the MAVs have degraded relative localization and control performance under unobservable...journal article 2022

Guendel, Ronny (author), Fioranelli, F. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)Continuous Human Activity Recognition (HAR) in arbitrary directions is investigated in this paper using a network of five spatially distributed pulsed Ultra-Wideband radars. While activities performed continuously and in unconstrained trajectories provide a more realistic and natural scenario for HAR, the network of radar sensors is proposed...journal article 2022

Ahmed, Adeeb (author)Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology became unregulated within the EU in 2007. Most recently, it was integrated into mobile phones in 2019, notably Apply and Samsung adding it to all their newer models. While UWB is characterised as a radio technology with any signal above 500 MHz, it operates within the 6-9 GHz<br/>range in mobile phones. This...student report 2021

van der Heijden, D.S. (author), Ledergerber, Anton (author), Gill, Rajan (author), D'Andrea, Raffaello (author)An iterative bias estimation framework is presented that mitigates position-dependent ranging errors often present in ultra-wideband localization systems. State estimation and control are integrated, such that the positioning accuracy improves over iterations. The framework is experimentally evaluated on a quadcopter platform, resulting in...journal article 2021

Xu, S. (author), Kooij, B.J. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)The joint Doppler and Direction-of-Arrival (DOA) estimation of moving targets using an (Ultra-)Wideband (UWB) frequency modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) antenna array radar is investigated. Besides the well-known range migration problem, another concern for wideband signals is the DOA estimation problem. For the first time, both problems are...journal article 2020

Xu, S. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)This article addresses the joint estimation of range, velocity and azimuth for multiple fast-moving targets using (ultra-)wideband (UWB) frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar with a phased array in the presence of Doppler ambiguities. The range migration of moving targets is described with the coupling of the fast-time and slow...journal article 2020

Xu, S. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)Separating images of multiple moving extended-targets by means of ultra-wideband (UWB) frequency-modulated-continuous-wave (FMCW) radar is investigated. The difference in motion of closely-spaced extended targets is used to separate and image them when their radar signatures overlap in the range-azimuth domain. A novel auto-focusing criterion...journal article 2020
