    :

Electronically scanned phased arrays are widely used in various civil and military applications including radar, broadcasting, cellular communications, satellite communications, and weather forecasting. However, the implementation of phased arrays has been limited to base stations, military applications, and high-end commercial products, regardless of their numerous technical advantages. The primary hindrance of the wide-scale deployment of phased arrays is the high cost associated with transmit/receive (T/R) modules. Phase shifters are critical elements within these T/R modules that create phase shifts between antenna elements and steer the antenna beam to the desired direction. In many cases, the cost of phase shifters is up to nearly half of the cost of an entire electronically scanned phased array. This seminar is to present an innovative concept termed electronically steerable passive array radiator (ESPAR) to realize next-generation low-cost phased arrays, and related techniques for millimeter-wave applications.
