Research Topic Description, including Problem Statement:
Example Approaches:
Numerous applications are of interest for RIS’s or retrodirective arrays operating in the MHz to GHz ranges, whether it be narrowband, multiband, or wideband. The nature of the contribution can be at the aperture, beamforming, signal processing, or system level. Researchers could take a purely theoretical approach, discussing limitations and bounds for various phenomenon within this field of study. Alternately, a purely applied approach – such as the manufacturing practicalities associated with a near-full-sphere coverage retrodirective array. Applicants are encouraged to present their novel concepts and approaches for the theory, modelling, development, and/or fabrication of retrodirective arrays and/or next generation RIS’s.
Develop/enhance capabilities for improved communications with sensors (e.g., in high-interference environments)
Key Words: Antennas, Radio Frequency, Microwave, Filters, Additive Manufacturing, Waveguides, Modeling
