Abstract:

The Seminar will begin with an introduction describing the High Frequency Electronics Group at Queens University Belfast, some of the research we carry out and our facilities. Then, some of the Self Steering Antenna Research will be described in more detail. This will include some of our mm-wave retrodirective antennas operating at 65 GHz and our new novel PLL phase conjugating retrodirective arrays.
