Blind Calibration of Phase Drift in Millimeter-Wave Channel Sounders

June 11, 2020
Author(s)
Jack Chuang, Jelena Senic, Chunmei Liu, Camillo Gentile, Sung Yun Jun, Derek Caudill
Millimeter-wave channel sounders are much more sensitive to phase drift than their microwave counterparts by virtue of shorter wavelength. This matters when coherently phasing (electronic or mechanical) antenna scans collected over seconds, minutes, or

Blind Measurement of Receiver System Noise

June 4, 2020
Author(s)
Dan Kuester, Adam Wunderlich, Duncan McGillivray, Dazhen Gu, Audrey Puls
Tightly packaged receive systems pose a challenge for noise measurements. The only available receiver outputs are often user data: link benchmark or diagnostic information that can be scavenged with software. These could include data rate benchmark, self

Modeling the Electromagnetic Scattering Characteristics of Carbon Nanotube Composites Characterized by 3D Tomographic Transmission Electron Microscopy

May 7, 2020
Author(s)
Ahmed M. Hassan, Md Khadimul Islam, Spencer On, Bharath Natarajan, Itai Stein, Noa Lachman, Estelle Cohen, Brian L. Wardle, Renu Sharma, James Alexander Liddle, Edward Garboczi
In nearly all prior modeling studies of the electromagnetic properties of carbon nanotube (CNT) composites, the three-dimensional (3D) shape and spatial distribution of the CNTs in the composite were unknown. Therefore, simplifying assumptions had to be

A Multi-Band Rydberg-Atom Based Receiver/Antenna: AM/FM Stereo Reception

April 2, 2020
Author(s)
Christopher L. Holloway, Matthew T. Simons, Joshua A. Gordon
With the re-definition of the International System of Units (SI) that occurred in October of 2018, there has recently been a great deal of attention in the development atom-base sensors for metrology applications. In particular great progress had been made

Field-Only Surface Integral Equations: Scattering from a Perfect Electric Conductor

February 1, 2020
Author(s)
Qiang Sun, Evert Klaseboer, Alex Yuffa, Derek Y. Chan
A field-only boundary integral formulation of electromagnetics is derived without the use of surface currents that appear in the Stratton--Chu formulation. For scattering by a perfect electrical conductor (PEC), the components of the electric field are

Synaptic weighting in single flux quantum neuromorphic computing

January 22, 2020
Author(s)
Michael L. Schneider, Christine A. Donnelly, Ian W. Haygood, Alex Wynn, Stephen E. Russek, Manuel C. Castellanos Beltran, Paul D. Dresselhaus, Peter F. Hopkins, Matthew R. Pufall, William H. Rippard
Josephson junctions act as a natural spiking neuron-like device for neuromorphic computing. By leveraging the advances recently demonstrated in digital single flux quantum (SFQ) circuits and using recently demonstrated magnetic Josephson junction (MJJ)

Field Compressed Sensing

January 17, 2020
Author(s)
Anthony B. Kos, Fabio C. Da Silva, Jason B. Coder, Craig W. Nelson, Grace E. Antonucci, Archita Hati
Imaging solutions based on wave scattering seek real-time performance, high dynamic range, and spatial accuracy at scales spanning from nanometers to thousands of kilometers. Compressed sensing algorithms use sparsity to reduce sample size during image

Plasmonic Nano-antenna Optimization Using Characteristic Mode Analysis

January 3, 2020
Author(s)
Edward Garboczi, Sumitra Dey, Deb Chatterjee, Ahmed M. Hassan
Plasmonic nano-antennas are typically designed using RF-inspired parametric optimization process and/or using trial and error search algorithms which lack proper physical insight. In this study, we demonstrate how the Characteristic Mode Analysis (CMA)

A kilopixel array of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors

November 18, 2019
Author(s)
Varun Verma, Adriana Lita, Sae Woo Nam, R P. Mirin, Emma Wollman, William Farr, Matthew Shaw
We present a 1024-element imaging array of superconducting nanowire single photon detectors (SNSPDs) using a 32x32 row-column multiplexing architecture. Large arrays are desirable for applications such as imaging, spectroscopy, or particle detection.
