(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019) Abdelsadek M.S.; Allam A.M.M.A.; Fawzy D.
This paper presents the design and fabrication of a directional antenna for the Traffic alert and Collision Avoidance Avionic System (TCAS). A patch antenna in a circular shape made from copper. Roger 5880 with h=3.18 mm; ?r=2.2, and loss tangent of 0.0009 is taken as a substrate material. It is fed using a microstrip line of 50 ohm. It operates at the targeted frequencies. Defected ground technique is used to increase the antenna bandwidth. A conducting plane supports the antenna structure at an optimized distance to achieve high gain. The proposed antenna conducts with parameters that satisfy the conventional TCAS II directional antenna radiation parameters except with higher gain which tends to 5.15 dB and 5.6 dB in the transmission and reception respectively that increase the range of he surveillance area. Low side lobe level and an efficient beamwidth are archived for bearing angle calculation efficiency and to cover the full 360° respectively. © 2019 IEEE.

Development of a High Gain Fss Reflector Backed Monopole Antenna Using Machine Learning for 5g Applications
(Electromagnetics Academy, 2021) Nakmouche M.F.; Allam A.M.M.A.; Fawzy D.E.; Lin D.-B.
—This work is devoted to the development of a high gain Frequency Selective Surface (FSS) reflector backed monopole antenna using Machine Learning (ML) techniques for 5G applications. It analyzes and solves the complexity of the determination of the optimum position of the FSS reflector and the ground dimension of the monopole in this composite antenna structure since there are no solid and standard formulations for the computation of these two parameters. ML modelling is involved in the development process for the sake of gain enhancement. It is applied to get the optimum position of the FSS reflector layer and the ground dimension of the monopole antenna. The proposed antenna structure is 50 mm × 50 mm, implemented on a Rogers 5880 substrate (thickness = 1.6 mm). Two different patch antenna structures, with and without FSS, are developed and considered in the current work. The antenna performance in terms of operating frequency, return loss, and gain is analysed using the finite element methods. The design is optimized for a targeting frequency band operating at 6 GHz (5.53 GHz to 6.36 GHz), which is suitable for 5G Sub-6 GHz applications. The obtained results show that the integration of the FSS layer below the antenna structure provides a simple and efficient method to obtain a low-profile and high-gain antenna. Finally, the proposed design is fabricated and measured, and a good agreement between the simulated and measured results is obtained. A comparison with similar studies in the literature is presented and shows that the current design is more compact in size, and the obtained radiation efficiency and gain are higher than other designs. © 2021, Electromagnetics Academy.

This study presents the development of a one-layer symmetrical Metamaterial Absorber (MMA) for millimeter-wave (mm-wave) applications. The target is to enhance the narrow band behavior and to achieve ultra-wideband with high absorptivity rates. The design is based on octagonal shaped cut rings and octagonal patches printed on grounded rigid substrate. A novel unit cell is developed and enhanced with the use of lumped elements technique to obtain ultra-wideband absorbers with high absorptivity rates. It is implemented on Rogers RT5880 with dielectric relative permittivity ? r=2.2, dielectric loss tangent of tan ?=0.0009, thermal conductivity of 0.2 W/m. K and with a 1.575 mm thickness. The characteristics of the MMA are examined in term of different resistive values, geometries, and angle of incidence. The obtained results show great enhancements in both the-10 dB bandwidth and in the absorptivity rates. The narrow bandwidth of the symmetrical design is enhanced by a factor of about 200 with average absorptivity of about 98% over the whole bandwidth. The current design is a very suitable for applications in the mm-wave. © 2022 IEEE.

(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019) Nakmouche M.F.; Taher H.; Fawzy D.E.; Allam A.M.M.A.
In the current work, a new Wideband Substrate Integrated Waveguide Bandpass Filter (SIW-BPF) is presented. The target is to allow vertical roaming between the X and Ku band applications. As a first step, we performed a parametric study of different etched slot geometries namely, H-Slotted, T-Slotted, and U-Slotted DGS in order to examine the effects of altering different geometrical parameters of the unit on its response. H-Slotted DGS shows the highest FBW with 82.89% on the average compared to other geometries. As a second step, the cell size and the numbers of the H-Slotted DGS were optimized with the use of finite element method with the following constraints taken into consideration: low cost fabrication, high Q-Factor, compact size and easy integration. One of the designs was chosen for fabrication to validate the designed circuit. The measured results show that our optimized filter achieves an insertion loss of 2.01 dB at 8.5 GHz, a return loss higher than 11 dB and fractional bandwidth of 90.87% for a single cell and a fractional bandwidth of 80.05% for multiple cells. The measured results are in good agreement with the simulated results. © 2019 IEEE.

(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2021) Nakmouche M.F.; Allam A.M.M.A.; Fawzy D.E.; Bing Lin D.; Abo Sree M.F.
The proposed work conducts a new approach for modeling a dual band monopole antenna design using DGS assisted by ANN. In the aim of efficient dual band antenna design with gain and optimal impedance matching, the Artificial Neural Networks technique (ANN) is used for the development process. This work presents a modeling for H-slotted Defected Ground Structure (DGS) based dual band antenna using ANN for 5G Sub-6 GHz applications. The designed antenna operates at 3.76 GHz and 6.1 GHz. The antenna gain is 2.18 dB and 2.75 dB at both frequencies, respectively. Firstly, a simulation is performed using CST EM simulator, then the predicted results in term of return losses and frequencies are fed into the ANN model. Secondly using a hybrid algorithm based on both feed-forward back-propagation and Levenberg-Marquart (LM) learning algorithm, the optimal position of the H-Slotted DGS in terms of 5G Sub-6 GHz band is extracted. Finally, the experimental validation is conducted and compared with the simulation results, a good agreement is obtained. © 2021 EurAAP.

Development of Ultra-Wideband Textile-Based Metamaterial Absorber for Mm-Wave Band Applications
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022) Akarsu G.; Taher H.; Zengin E.B.; Nakmouche M.F.; Fawzy D.E.; Allam A.M.M.A.; Cleary F.
This work presents a state-of-the-art development of an ultrawide absorber for wearable smart electronic textile applications. The design is based on a novel cell geometry that is previously developed and applied for RF energy harvesting applications. Different textile types were considered in this study, namely, Felt, Denim and Polyester and the achieved-10 dB reflective fractional bandwidths are about 42.828%, 43.65%, and 42.834% respectively. A comparison with traditional counterparts (FR-4 and Rogers dielectrics) shows that the bandwidth exhibited by textile materials is greatly wider. The bending effect of the textile materials is considered in this study and found that the-10 dB bandwidth is inversely proportional with the decrease in the surface curvature of the material. Compared to the currently developed absorbers and similar structures reported in the literature show that the current design is more compact, lighter, and more efficient in terms of the absorptivity. The current results can be considered as starting promising steps for the development of ultra-wideband electronic textiles-based applications such as energy harvesting, health monitoring, smart materials, sensors, and infrared camouflage. © 2022 European Association for Antennas and Propagation.

Interfacing Wideband Amplifiers Using Ridge Gap Waveguide for Mm-Wave Systems
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2020) Shams S.I.; Ali M.M.M.; Sebak A.; Elsaadany M.; Gagnon G.; Fawzy D.E.; Allam A.M.M.A.
The 6G race has already begun, and many countries and giant corporations started directing significant efforts and funds towards the development of the future technology. The 6G standard is expected to migrate to higher bands of frequencies to support wider bandwidth. Through this wide bandwidth, it will be feasible to serve the expected massive number of users and future applications, such as virtual reality and HD realtime transmission. One major problem in high frequency ranges, such as mm-wave bands, is the high signal attenuation, which can be compensated through more efficient amplifier systems. In this paper, we propose a wideband amplifier design fed through a Ridge Gap Waveguide line. The proposed design has many advantages inherited from the host guiding structure. The signal is carried by a Quasi-TEM signal, which minimizes the signal distortion. Also, the structure acts as a large heat sink, which minimizes the operating temperature. As a result, the expected added noise by the proposed amplifier shall be minimal. © 2020 IEEE.

This paper proposes a novel design of an ultra-thin, miniature metamaterial (MM)-based ultra-wideband absorber. The unit cell is designed by combining two letters (H & S) and side patches for the generation of multi-resonance bands, and printed on a grounded dielectric of Rogers RT5880 material. Based on the numerical plane-wave simulations, the proposed absorber exhibits an ultra-wideband of about 16.2 GHz absorption bandwidth in the frequency range between 27.669 GHz and 43.871 GHz. The average absorptivity rates are close to 99% for incident angles between 0°-20°.
