Funded Activity Summary

Multi-beam Transmitarrays for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Communications. This project aims to develop fundamental technologies for multi-beam conformal transmitarrays with independent beam steering capabilities for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communications. Compared to current UAV antennas, the proposed antennas can be flush mounted to the body of UAVs, improving aerodynamic performance while also achieving significantly higher data rates for wireless connectivity. This project is expected to generate scientific breakthroughs in many aspects of antenna research and enable UAVs to leverage big data technologies by transmitting/receiving large amounts of data, thus serving as a powerful tool for emergency management and for transforming many industry sectors, such as agriculture, food and water.
