PhD Studentship on millimetre-wave smart antennas

PhD Studentship

Design and measurement methodologies of millimetre-wave smart antennas

University of Surrey

Applications are invited for a funded three-year PhD studentship starting on 1 January 2013 to investigate the novel design and measurement methodologies of millimetre-wave smart antennas. Millimetre-wave smart antennas using, for example printed reflectarray, are the key technology for satellite communications, wireless local area networks and radars. At millimetre-wave bands they offer multi-gigabit speeds to complement existing Wi-Fi capabilities and enable new cutting-edge wireless applications. Main objectives of this project include novel designs, implementations and measurement techniques of millimetre-wave smart antennas.
