This paper reports on the design, fabrication and characterization of a 3-D printed RF front
end for a 2.45 GHz phased array unit cell. The printed unit cell, which includes a circularly …

In this work, an optimized broadband method using multilayer transmission lines to
characterize dielectric permittivity and loss tangent of material samples is presented. For this …

In this article, the first-band laser-enhanced direct print additive manufacturing (LE-DPAM)
monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) chip-carrier assembly is demonstrated …

Mobile data traffic is expected to grow at an annual rate of approximately 50% for the next
several years, equivalent to a 5x increase in just four years. The increase is due to more …

In this paper, we develop processes for printing 3-D structures by microdispensing materials
loaded with dielectric and magnetic powders. Manufacturing with these materials is …

Abstract The potential of Additive Manufacturing (AM) for microwave and mm-wave
applications is increasingly being revealed thanks to recent advancements in research. AM …

In this Ph. D. thesis, transmission line characterization techniques have been studied. It is
possible to estimate the propagation constant of transmission from 2-port S-parameters …
