This manuscript studies the interaction between Gravitational Plane Waves and Electromagnetic Plane Waves by means of an analogous electromagnetic model of gravity, where the electromagnetic properties codify the variations in the metric tensor produced by the Gravitational Plane Wave. A space-time modulation of the electromagnetic properties of the medium is generated and analyzed via the Finite-...Show More
This paper presents the advantages and limitations of a quantum radar system. The use of entangled photons to interrogate a region of space where a target is supposed to be, gives a lower probability of error than using a classical signal. This is possible because of the extra information that the quantum entanglement property can give us. This information helps us to distinguish between the signa...Show More
We present for the first time the analysis of an actual antenna radiating coherent states from a quantum perspective. Using Quantum Electrodynamics, we show different lights states such as Fock states and the coherent states. The radiation produced by a classical current is associated with Glauber or coherent states. We use a λ/2 dipole for showing this quantum radiation properties. Finally, we sh...Show More
We demonstrate that a waveguide consisting of a Pair of Parallel Curved Conducting Surfaces can be used as an analogous electromagnetic model of the gravitational field generated by a Schwarzschild black hole. The influence of gravity on the propagation of electromagnetic waves is encoded in the curvature of the surfaces of the waveguide. The results obtained for the propagation of a one-dimension...Show More
In this work, we propose a low-profile single-layer coplanar waveguide (CPW)-fed metasurface (MTS) antenna with broadband circular polarization (CP) radiation. With the help of characteristic-mode analysis (CMA), a \textbf {3}\times \textbf {4} MTS is analyzed to reveal the useful modes supported by the structure. Consequently, two modes with orthogonal current distribution, broadside radiatio...Show More

The proposed design consists of 3 × 4 rectangular metasurface elements and a coplanar waveguide feeding line (CPW) which are all lying on the same substrate. The polarization reconfigurability is achieved using pin diodes that are embedded in the coplanar waveguide feeding line. Therefore, ...Show More

A low-profile wideband circularly polarized reconfigurable metasurface antenna is proposed. The proposed antenna consists of a 3 × 4 rectangular metasurface element (MTS) and a rotated coplanar waveguide feeding line (CPW). Four PIN diodes (D1, D2, D3, and D3) are utilized to realize circular polarization reconfigurability. The antenna could operate in left-handed circular polarization (LHCP) and ...Show More
A compact circularly polarized (CP) implantable antenna working at 915 MHz, at the industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) band, is developed in this article. The proposed radiator is based on a fully planar and low-profile patch antenna with a ground plane and different slots but without any via holes, which makes the structure a good candidate for implantable devices. The circular polarization...Show More
This paper presents a miniaturized single layer low profile metasurface (MTS) antenna fed through a Coplanar waveguide (CPW). The metasurface is constituted by 3x4 rectangular loop cells. In a different way to that of the conventional rectangular MTS, the proposed loop unit cell presents a compact size due to its inductive effect. The characteristic mode analysis shows that two orthogonal modes ca...Show More
This paper proposes a new triple-band monopole antenna based on Complementary Split Ring Resonators (CSRR) perturbing the ground plane (GND). The antenna consists of an inverted-L-shaped monopole fed by a modified microstrip line with two CSRRs cut out of the ground plane. The operational bands are independently controlled by the CSRR unit cell parameters. In addition, the antenna presents a dual-...Show More

The design of a rectangular dielectric resonator antenna (RDRA) for 5G millimeter-wave (mm-wave) applications is presented. The design consists of a rectangular dielectric resonator placed at the top of a rectangular dielectric rod waveguide (RDRW) to eliminate loss from metallic parts used to feed the DRA. The antenna is fed by a metallic waveguide (WR-34) that operates in the range of 22 to 33 G...Show More
In this paper we present a room temperature radiometer that can eliminate the need of using cryostats in satellite payload reducing its weight and improving reliability. The proposed radiometer is based on an electro-optic upconverter that boosts up microwave photons energy by upconverting them into an optical domain what makes them immune to thermal noise even if operating at room temperature. Th...Show More
Full-wave finite-element antenna simulations are carried out between 100 and 700 GHz for a planar square spiral antenna, investigating the effect on the antenna gain of resistive losses in the metal arms. It is found that a large degradation of the gain occurs relative to the same antenna with arms of pure gold. However, the degradation is greatest at low frequencies where the skin depth in the lo...Show More
In the paper, a corporate feed antenna array with slot radiators and a layer of polarizing patches is designed to operate at 350 GHz. The antenna is conceived as a silicon structure fully metalized by gold. Different methods for modeling thin gold layers at terahertz frequencies are compared and the optimum approaches are chosen depending on the thickness of the metal layer and its relation to the...Show More
In order to meet the requirements of the new generation of radio telescopes, we have developed a new topology called DYQSA, which stands for DYson Quad-Spiral Array. The design exhibits dual circular polarization contrary to dual linear polarization of state-of-the-art feeds. It covers the required ultrawideband (UWB) from 2 to 14 GHz with an almost constant and real input impedance which facilita...Show More
We analyze the feasibility of upconverting mm-wave and THz radiation to the optical domain for high sensitivity radiometry with no need of cryogenic operation. The upconversion takes place via electro-optic modulation in high-Q whispering-gallery resonators. Theoretical noise results show that room-temperature upconversion schemes can achieve sensitivity values comparable to those of cooled state-...Show More
In this work, we present a high-gain, low-profile circularly polarized 8×8 element antenna array operating in Ka-band at 35 GHz. The antenna is a great fit for establishing a communication link between a CubeSat and ground station. The performance was validated using full-wave simulation. Finally, a prototype of the antenna was manufactured by 3D-printing and its performance was measured.Show More
A novel feeding method for a dielectric resonator array antenna is introduced. Unlike in a corporate feed network, power dividers or quarter-wave transformers are not needed in the new feeding scheme as the design is based on the standing-wave concept. Consequently, the feed network is greatly simplified, and undesired spurious radiation in the feeding network is minimized. The simulated and measu...Show More
In this paper, a scheme for a direct coupling of the microwave radiation into a nonlinear whispering-gallery mode (WGM) receiver is presented. This nonlinear receiver can be used for the detection of the weak radiation for radio astronomy applications at room temperature. It depends on the upconverting of the microwave signal into the optical domain through a nonlinear material. The proposed schem...Show More

The feed system achieves the VGOS's requirements with operating with high efficiency (> 50%) in a wide bandwidth from 2 ...Show More
In this paper, an analytical framework is developed to study the performance of a planar-interface near-field coupler into a whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonator. We focus on the efficient coupling of a Gaussian beam under total internal reflection (TIR) at the planar interface of a lens, which is near a spherical resonator. The aim is to optimize the coupling in WGM nonlinear resonators, for h...Show More
