A satellite antenna the width of a small car, folded down to fit inside a box barely larger than a loaf of bread. That is the ...

As the space industry evolves its focus from large satellites to smaller ones with the same functionality, there is a growing need for the hardware on board to shrink as well. A group of mechanical ...

The promise of wearables, functional fabrics, the Internet of Things, and their “next-generation” technological cohort seems tantalizingly within reach. But researchers in the field will tell you a ...

Just recently I was writing an article on antennas and was looking for some details that were not familiar. I have been around wireless for quite a while and have designed and built many antennas ...

Engineering researchers report a method for spraying invisibly thin antennas, made from a type of two-dimensional, metallic material called MXene, that perform as well as those being used in mobile ...

Apple’s iPhone 4 antenna issue represents a classic example of what can go wrong in modern antenna design. Put one in the wrong place, and a seemingly insignificant part can turn a cool new product ...

As more devices are equipped with communications capabilities, the number of antennas will explode. That creates new challenges on every level. A simple rule when it comes to electronics is that while ...

Antenna design, fabrication, and performance verification are key to the success of both the astrophysics program and the satellite telecommunications program. To support these efforts, a free space ...

The Apple executive in charge of iPhone engineering and responsible for the innovative–yet problem prone–antenna design on the iPhone 4 has left the company. Based on Apple’s response to “antennagate” ...

CHANDLER, Ind. – It was 1943 and America was in the depths of World War II, with no certainty of the outcome. Among the avenues for achieving victory was to develop radio beacons to aid in bombing ...
