Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues, 

This Special Issue, titled “Recent Advances in Electromagnetic Devices, 2nd Edition”, will explore the latest developments in the field of electromagnetic technology, focusing on innovations in design, materials, and applications. Central themes of this Special Issue include the optimization of device efficiency, miniaturization, and integration with other technologies. Key advancements within this field will be highlighted, such as the following:

  • Metamaterials, which enable novel properties and functions not found in natural materials, leading to breakthroughs in antenna design, cloaking, and electromagnetic shielding;
  • The momentum gained by wireless power transfer, allowing for efficient energy transmission over short and long distances with applications in consumer electronics and electric vehicles;
  • Electromagnetic actuators and sensors, which have the potential to improve robotic systems, medical devices, and aerospace engineering;
  • Aspects of optical devices and photonic devices such as lenses, mirrors, microscopes, fiber optics, imaging, sensing, lasers, solar energy harvesting, photodetectors, and biomedical research.

This paper presents the design, implementation, and experimental validation of a high-precision angular measurement system based on a round inductosyn. Dedicated hardware circuits, including excitation, signal conditioning, and resolver-to-digital conversion modules, together with software algorithms for coarse–fine data fusion and linear interpolation-based error compensation, are developed to achieve accurate and stable angular measurement. Experimental results obtained from repeated measurements over a full rotation demonstrate reliable system operation and effective suppression of nonlinear errors. After compensation, the residual angular error is limited to within ±3″, while measurement consistency across repeated experiments is significantly improved. The output angle exhibits good continuity and stability, confirming the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed system for high-precision servo control and aerospace attitude measurement applications.

A super-wideband transparent antenna (SWTA) with wide axial ratio bandwidth (ARBW) featuring an enhanced ground plane and microstrip feeding is proposed. The antenna has planar dimensions of 0.20λ0 × 0.20λ0 × 0.003λ0 at its lowest frequency of 1.33 GHz. The antenna is fabricated from a combination of PET and metal oxide thin films, which together enable its flexibility and transparency. The L-shaped strips attached to the ground perturb the electric field in the slot, exciting a pair of orthogonal modes and resulting in circular polarization. The proposed antenna demonstrate high performance with an impedance bandwidth of 182% (1.33–28.52 GHz), an axial ratio bandwidth of 66% (3.88–7.73 GHz), and attain a peak gain of 11.5 dBi. Moreover, with an optical transparency exceeding 90%, this design is a flexible, transparent, super-wideband (SWB) antenna capable of high data rates, easy integration, and beyond-visual-line-of-sight (BVLOS) operations.
