Description
The research activity initially consists of investigating existing solutions in the literature for antenna arrays capable of focusing power in the radiative near-field region. The most promising solution among those identified will then be numerically replicated, and Matlab scripts will be developed for the rapid characterization of its focusing properties. These initial results will serve as a benchmark for the next phase. The research activity, following this initial state-of-the-art study, will consist of studying the innovative family of Frequency-Diverse Arrays (FDAs) and verifying their behavior in power focusing applications in the radiative near-field region. Solutions with a high number of elements will be simulated (because they are more useful for extending the array's range of action), but the results will be experimentally verified with prototypes with 4 (or up to 16) elements.
