Bagchi, Madhubanti (author)Recently non-image-based data capturing methods such as sensors like RF, ultrasonic or radars, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc for People Counting (PC) applications have gained momentum as an alternative to camera-based systems due to the preference for privacy preservation. Among them mm-wave radars are a strong choice for data capture since they consume...master thesis 2023

Ren, Liyuan (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author), Fioranelli, F. (author)The problem of radar-based counting of multiple individuals moving as a single group is addressed using an mm-wave multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar. This problem is challenging because the different individuals are closer to each other than the range/azimuth resolution, and their bulk...journal article 2023

De Martino, C. (author), Bueno Lopez, J. (author), Spirito, M. (author)In this paper, we present an experimental strategy to analyze the harmonic content of mm-wave frequency extenders using the VNA (absolute) power calibration step, without requiring spectrum analyzers and/or separate downconverters. The spectral purity of the upconverted band of the extenders is a key requirement to enable entirely software-based...conference paper 2023

Bokhorst, Rik (author)Front-end Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuits (MMICs) have recently become commercially available for frequencies above 100 GHz. However, achieving low-loss and broadband interconnections between the antenna and MMICs is challenging for integrated front ends at these frequencies.

Verkleij, Simon (author)Receivers for millimeter-wave (mm-wave) 5G, with the ability to detect a low-power desired signal, in the vicinity of large power blockers, require highly linear circuitry with a large power consumption. Suppressing the out-of-band blockers reduces this power consumption. N-path filters (NPFs) have recently been used to reject interferers in...master thesis 2022

de Graaf, John (author), Mao, Rui (author)In this thesis, the realization and qualification of an anechoic dome chamber for 5G antenna’s is discussed. As with audio, where no echoes or noise from outside is wanted when listening to music, when characterizing an antenna it must be prevented to get internal reflections or electromagnetic (EM) radiation from outside. For this reason, a...bachelor thesis 2022

Masoumi, H. (author), Myers, N.J. (author), Leus, G.J.T. (author), Wahls, S. (author), Verhaegen, M.H.G. (author)Fast millimeter wave (mmWave) channel estimation techniques based on compressed sensing (CS) suffer from low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in the channel measurements, due to the use of wide beams. To address this problem, we develop an in-sector CS-based mmWave channel estimation technique that focuses energy on a sector in the angle domain....conference paper 2022
