Modelling and optimisation of antennas for 6G communications

“目标是开发优化的现实天线或天线阵列，同时满足多种要求，如最大天线正向增益、低旁瓣电平、不希望的传入信号到达方向（DOA）的零值等。天线阵列的几何形状和激励将被优化，以便根据应用以特定的方式形成产生的辐射图。最后，设计一个适当的馈电网络，以提供天线元件所需的激励，并与中央传输线相匹配。天线、天线阵列和馈电网络的优化将通过开发和应用新的进化优化技术，结合时域有限差分（FDTD）方法、有限积分技术（FIT）、有限元法（FEM）和矩量法（MoM）等全波分析方法来进行。该项目将受益于目前正在运行的两个欧洲项目MSCA-ITN-MOTOR5G和MSCA-RISE-RECOMBINE，这两个项目都是超越5G通信。出版物将提交给Q1高影响力期刊：IEEE Transactions on天线和传播（IF = 4.4）， IEEE Access （IF = 3.7）等。最终将申请专利，并利用相关的商业机会。”

"The objective is to develop optimised realistic antennas or antenna arrays that concurrently satisfy multiple requirements such as maximum antenna forward gain, low side lobe levels, nulls towards the direction of arrival (DOA) of undesired incoming signals, etc. The geometry and excitation of antenna arrays will be optimised in order to shape the produced radiation pattern in a specific way depending on the application. Finally, a proper feeding network that provides the required excitations on the antenna elements as well as matching to a central transmission line will be designed. The optimisation of antennas, antenna arrays and feeding networks will be performed by developing and applying novel evolutionary optimisation techniques in conjunction with full-wave analysis methods like the Finite Difference in Time Domain (FDTD) method, the Finite Integration Technique (FIT), the Finite Element Method (FEM), and the Method of Moments (MoM).This project will benefit from two current running European projects MSCA-ITN-MOTOR5G and MSCA-RISE-RECOMBINE both on Beyond 5G Communications.Publications will be submitted to Q1 high-impact journals: IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation (IF = 4.4), IEEE Access (IF = 3.7), etc.Eventually Patents will be filed and relevant business opportunities will be exploited."
