Artificial Dielectric Layers (ADLs) have recently been exploited to improve the radiation and impedance performance of integrated antennas at millimeter wave (mmWave) and terahertz (THz) frequencies. The ADLs are composed by layers of sub-wavelength periodic metal patches that can be arranged within a host medium to synthesize an equivalent...

Small charge detection is used for a wide range of applications: advanced industrial process control, experimental physics and space instruments, and material testing and medical imaging. These applications give rise to the development of a wide variety of charge-sensitive readout integrated circuits (ROICs). The trend in the state-of-the-art...

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...

The continuous advancements in the coverage and sensitivity of terahertz direct-detector imagers places increasing constraints on the test benches needed for characterization. Already, relative differences on the order of a few decibels are observed between simulated and measured performance in the state-of-the-art literature. This...

By introducing three different techniques, this article, for the first time, presents a wideband highly linear receiver (RX) capable of handling blocking scenarios in fifth-generation (5G) microcell base station applications. First, a parallel preselect filter is introduced to satisfy the base station co-location blocking requirements. Next,...

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...

This paper presents a terrestrial networked positioning system that obtains a reliable time reference from a national time scale realization and distributes it in a prototype to six roadside base stations through a fiber-optic Gigabit Ethernet network. Wireless wideband signals are transmitted by the base stations, thereby enabling...

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...

Coco Martin, Caspar (author)
Planar lenses based on metasurfaces or resonant elements are typically narrowband due to phase wrapping, which is strongly frequency-dependent. On the contrary, true-time-delay (TTD) planar lenses, which do not resort to phase wrapping, can achieve large bandwidths. One convenient way to design wideband TTD lenses is by means of artificial...

Terahertz astronomy has been exceptionally unexplored until the last decades due to a technological gap, but exactly at these wavelengths the most distant galaxies appear very bright. Efficient instruments that are capable of spectrometry are essential in understanding the physics of these distant objects. Within the framework of this thesis, an...

Wireless data traffic is projected to steadily increase in the near future, necessitating the demand for transceivers with higher linearity and efficiency. Digital power amplifiers have the potential to achieve these higher efficiency demands while digital pre-distortion can be used to improve their linearity. Digital pre-distortion requires a...

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...

To be able to cope with the demands of next generation radar applications, a bandwidth of 400MHz is required. The SAR assisted CT ∆Σ ADC provides an energy efficient ADC, but needs improvements to cope with the bandwidth enlargement. This thesis examines the front end components and thus initially focuses on resolving the issues in the front end...

We present a study on beam coupling in radiating structures that support multiple simultaneous beams. The formation of multiple beams is relevant in modern wireless communication applications when diverse data streams can be sent from a single transmitter to users located in different directions. General expressions are provided that relate...

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...

We present a resonant leaky-wave lens antenna, fed by a circular waveguide with annular corrugations in the ground plane. The proposed leaky-wave feed reduces the impact of the spurious TM0 leaky-wave mode in all planes over a wide bandwidth while reducing assembly complexity compared to previous methods. The proposed leaky-wave antenna has...
