Metamaterial-inspired antenna array for application in microwave breast imaging systems for tumor detection by Alibakhshikenari, Mohammad, Virdee, Bal Singh, Shukla, Pancham, Parchin, Naser Ojaroudi, Azpilicueta, Leyre, See, Chan, Abd-Alhameed, Raed, Falcone, Francisco, Huynen, Isabelle, Denidni, Tayeb A., Limiti, Ernesto

“…Moreover, the proposed antenna-array exhibits high-isolation on average of 30dB between radiators. This means that antennas in the array (i) can be closely spaced to accommodate more radiators to achieve higher-resolution imaging scans, and (ii) the imagining scans can be done over a wider frequency range to ascertain better contrast in electrical parameters between malignant tumor-tissue and the surrounding normal breast-tissue to facilitate the detection of breast-tumor. …”

Virtual antenna array for reduced energy per bit transmission at Sub-5 GHz mobile wireless communication systems by Alibakhshikenari, Mohammad, Virdee, Bal Singh, Mariyanayagam, Dion, Zuazola, Ignacio Garcia, Benetatos, Harry, Althuwayb, Ayman Abdulhadi, Alali, Bader, Xu, Kai-Da, Falcone, Francisco

“…We have shown that for a specific spectral efficiency a wireless system using the proposed virtual antenna array consumes significantly less energy per bit (~ 3 dB) than a wireless system using a conventional multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) array. This means the adoption of the proposed VAA technology in smartphones, iPad, Tablets and even base-stations should significantly reduce the carbon footprint of wireless systems. …”
