Design and Full Characterization of a 3-D-Printed Hyperbolic Pyramidal Wideband Microwave Absorber

Xhoandri Lleshi, Thi Quynh van Hoang, Brigitte Loiseaux, Didier Lippens

A fully 3-D-printed wideband metamaterial absorber, characterized by an absorptivity above 0.95 in the X and Ku-bands and with a fractional bandwidth of 0.71, is presented in this letter. A 250 mm × 250 mm sample, with a total thickness of 6.3 mm (0.26λ 0 ), is fabricated exploiting the fused…

19 - Optical Waves in Finite Layered Photonic Crystals

Abdellatif Akjouj, El Houssaine El Boudouti, L. Dobrzynski, Bahram Djafari-Rouhani

We investigated the propagation of electromagnetic waves in a finite photonic crystal bounded by a substrate and vacuum, and separated from them by a buffer layer and a cap layer. In this realistic geometry, we show the existence of different kinds of localized and resonant modes whose behaviors…

Aggregated Euclidean Distances for a Fast and Robust Real-Time 3D-MOT

Rahmad Sadli, Mohamed Afkir, Abdenour Hadid, Atika Rivenq, Abdelmalik Taleb-Ahmed

Autonomous driving systems must have the ability to monitor the kinematic behaviour of multiple obstacles. Therefore, 3D multi-object tracking (3D-MOT) is one of the crucial modules in autonomous driving to detect the presence of potential hazard movements such as human operated vehicles and…

Preanalytical issues and cycle threshold values in SARS-CoV-2 real-time RT-PCR testing: should test results include these?

Ilka Engelmann, Enagnon Kazali Alidjinou, Judith Ogiez, Quentin Pagneux, Sana Miloudi, Ilyes Benhalima, Mahdi Ouafi, Famara Sané, Didier Hober, Alain Roussel, Christian Cambillau, David Devos, Rabah Boukherroub, Sabine Szunerits

Since the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, clinical laboratories worldwide are overwhelmed with SARS-CoV-2 testing using the current gold standard: real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assays. The large numbers of suspected cases led to shortages in numerous reagents…

Bandpass NGD function design for 5G microwave signal delay synchronization application

Sébastien Lalléchère, Lala Rajaoarisoa, Laurent Clavier, Raul Sanchez Galan, Blaise Ravelo

This paper introduces a design method of simple bandpass (BP) negative group delay (NGD) topology. The fundamental specifications of BP NGD function are defined. The NGD passive topology consists of parallel resistance associated with an open-ended microstrip stub. The NGD properties and…

Heuristically accelerated reinforcement learning for channel assignment in wireless sensor networks

Mohamed Sahraoui, Azeddine Bilami, Abdelmalik Taleb-Ahmed

In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), multi-channel communication represents an attractive field due to its advantage in improving throughput and delivery rate. However, the major challenge that faces WSNs is the energy constraint. To overcome the channel assignment problem in an energy-efficient way…

20 Gbit/s 306 GHz link enabled by Yagi-Uda antenna

Guillaume Ducournau, Fabio Pavanello, Aritrio Bandyopadhyay, Cybelle Belem-Gonçalves, Frédéric Gianesello, Cyril Luxey, Emilien Peytavit, Jean-Francois Lampin, Malek Zegaoui, Mohammed Zaknoune

We report on the use of a Yagi-Uda antenna on polymer substrate used in a 306 GHz-20 Gbit/s real-time data link for indoor applications. The Yagi-Uda antenna is described and the validation of the THz link is obtained in amplitude modulation mode and using QAM-16 signals (32 Gbit/s).

Elastic Metasurfaces for Deep and Robust Subwavelength Focusing and Imaging

Yabin Jin, Wan Wang, Abdelkrim Khelif, Bahram Djafari-Rouhani

Metasurfaces are planar metamaterials with a flat surface and a subwavelength thickness that are able to shape arbitrary wave fronts such as focusing or imaging. There is a broad interest in the literature about subwavelength focusing and imaging based on bulk metamaterials while the utilization of…
