Phased-multiple-input multiple-output (phased-MIMO) radar using one-dimensional transmit arrays has been thoroughly investigated in the literature. In this paper, we consider two-dimensional phased-MIMO radar array which is called planar-phased-MIMO radar. This new technique aggregates the advantages of the linear-phased-MIMO radar without sacrificing either the main advantage of the planar-pha...

A conformable phased array device is being developed that allows reliable ultrasonic inspection of components with irregular surfaces. The device uses a standard linear phased array transducer, which is coupled to the surface under test by a water path, encapsulated by a low loss, synthetic rubber membrane. A comparison of results obtained using conventional ultrasonic techniques and the confor...

A synchronous-amplitude-controlled and time-delay-controlled photonic controller for phased-array antenna applications is proposed and demonstrated. Amplitude control is based on a variable optical attenuator system that operates in synchronism with the photonic delay line (PDL). This amplitude control system can provide both the signal calibration for the different PDL channels and settings re...

Comparative evaluation of bioenergy production from food waste was carried out with both a temperature-phased and a conventional mesophilic two-phased process at different organic loading rates (OLRs). No methane was detected in the temperature-phased thermophilic-acidogenic fermenter at all the OLRs tested. However, a significant amount of methane content was detected in the conventional two-p...

Phased logic is a synthesis/mapping methodology that allows a standard clocked netlist (combinational gates + DFFs) to be automatically mapped to a non-clocked netlist that uses special gates called phased logic gates. The new netlist has no clock networks and the only required global signal is a power-on reset. We demonstrate the viability of the phased logic approach via the synthesis and sim...

Typically, users engage with smartphones in either single-hand or dual-hand mode. To design antennas that operate at 28 GHz and have high pattern integrity for both modes of operation, an orthogonal beam switching module is required as a single phased-arrays would fail. First, corner bent corporate fed array operating proposed, which has forward gain 8.5 dBi high-front-to-back ratio 20 dB. Seco...

Previously demonstrated integrated optical phased arrays have primarily been implemented in silicon-based platforms and have therefore been limited to operation at infrared wavelengths, where silicon provides low-loss transmission. Developing integrated optical phased arrays for visible wavelengths would enable the exploration of new applications for this technology, such as autostereoscopic di...

This paper describes the design and the evaluation for a simulation model for the dual curvature ultrasound phased array. The main goal of this simulation is to enhance the usage of dual curvature ultrasound phased array in ultrasound therapy with three dimensional phased arrays. In our simulation, focusing the total acoustic power within a specific phase can be controlled dynamically for each ...

In this article, we propose a hybrid electromechanical scanning lens antenna array architecture suitable for the steering of highly directive beams at submillimeter wavelengths with field-of-views (FoV) ±25°. The concept relies on combining electronic phase shifting sparse mechanical translation array. use sparse-phased significantly simplifies RF front-end (number active components, routing, t...
