This paper presents rain attenuation effects on the performance of the full-duplex link in a tropical region based on one-year measurement data at 73.5- and 83.5-GHz E-band for distances of 1.8 km (longer links) and 300 m (shorter links). The measure...
This paper explores the capability of high frequency microwave measurements at vertical and horizontal polarizations in detecting snowfall over land. Surface in-situ meteorological data were collected over Conterminous US during two winter seasons in...
Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) and massive multiple input and multiple output (M-MIMO) are the two major enabling technologies for next-generation networks, capable of providing spectral efficiency (SE), energy efficiency (EE), array gain,...
Due to the extensively accessible bandwidth of many tens of GHz, millimeter-wave (mmWave) and sub-terahertz (THz) frequencies are anticipated to play a significant role in 5G and 6G wireless networks and beyond. This paper presents investigations on...
In this study, a 50-nm Al0.05Ga0.95N back barrier (BB) layer was used in an AlGaN/GaN high-electron-mobility transistor between the two-dimensional electron gas channel and Fe-doped/C-doped buffer layers. This BB layer can reduce the channel layer. T...
This paper presents the design and the performance of a wide tuning-range millimeter-wave (mm-wave) two-core class-C 60 GHz VCO in 40 nm CMOS process, which can be integrated into wireless communication transceivers and radar sensors. The proposed ar...
This study introduces a new design for an ultra-compact shared-aperture antenna utilizing a quarter-mode substrate integrated waveguide (QMSIW) cavity. The proposed antenna operates as a 4 × 4 multi-input multi-output (MIMO) system in three 5G/...
In this paper, we propose a metamaterial (MTM)-based low-profile wideband antenna and its array using a substrate integrated cavity (SIC) feed structure for 5G wireless cellular networks. The proposed wideband antenna consists of two sets of square m...
The fundamental plane of black hole activity is a very important tool to study accretion and jets. However, we found that the SEDs of AGNs and XRBs are different in the 2–10 keV energy band, and it seems inappropriate to use 2–10 keV X-ra...
In this paper, the design and implementation of a Doherty power amplifier (DPA) are proposed using gallium nitride high electron mobility transistors (GaN HEMTs). Class-F and Class-C modes are combined to obtain an asymmetric DPA. The precise active...
In this paper, we demonstrated a high-sensitivity polarization image sensor for millimeter-wave electric field imaging using electro-optic crystals. We developed a three-layer on-pixel polarizer structure fabricated with a 0.35-µm standard CMOS...

In this paper, a 3 dB 90-degree hybrid coupler with size reduction and harmonics rejection was designed. In the proposed coupler structure, four simple low-pass filters (LPFs) were applied. An artificial neural network (ANN) was used to determine the...
A communication system is proposed for the Internet of Things (IoT) applications in desert areas with extended coverage of regional area network requirements. The system implements a developed six-element array that operates at a 2.45 GHz frequency b...
In this manuscript, a reconfigurable leaky wave antenna is proposed with linearly polarized and circularly polarized properties, which is composed of two layers with feeding waveguide and radiation elements. The bottom layer is a half-mode substrate...
The most reliable methods for pregnancy diagnosis in dairy herds include rectal palpation, ultrasound examination, and evaluation of plasma progesterone concentrations. However, these methods are expensive, labor-intensive, and invasive. Thus, there...
The accurate positioning and state estimation of surface vessels are prerequisites to autonomous navigation. Recently, the rapid development of 3D LiDARs has promoted the autonomy of both land and aerial vehicles, which has attracted the interest of...
Mapping the delineation of areas that are flooded due to water control infrastructure failure is a critical issue. Practical difficulties often present challenges to the accurate and effective analysis of dam-break hazard areas. Such studies are expe...
The microwave ablation technique to destroy cancer tissues in liver is practiced clinically and is the subject of ongoing research, e.g., ablation monitoring. For studies, liver tissue from cattle or pigs is often used as a substitute material. In th...
