About this book

This book discusses the lightweight, reconfigurable, and deployable origami antennas for adaptive communication systems. Traditional antennas, with their fixed characteristics, struggle to meet the evolving needs of modern communication systems. Reconfigurable antennas, on the other hand, can dynamically adjust their operating parameters, offering significant advantages in terms of performance, size, and cost. Origami technology has emerged as a disruptive force in antenna design, enabling the development of lightweight, reconfigurable antennas with tailored radiation characteristics. Deployable origami antennas offer a transformative solution for applications demanding mobility and rapid deployment in challenging environments. These innovative antennas hold immense promise to revolutionize communication systems, paving the way for a future where adaptability and versatility are paramount. This book offers a comprehensive guide to origami antenna technology, encompassing both fundamentals and practical applications. It might be a valuable resource for researchers and engineers working in the field of antenna development, particularly those focused on wireless communication systems with reconfigurability and deployability are essential design prerequisites.

About the authors

Syed Imran Hussain Shah received the B.Sc. degree in Telecommunication Engineering from the University of Engineering and Technology, Peshawar, Pakistan, in 2011, and the M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from the same university in 2014. He holds his Ph.D. degree from the School of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Chung-Ang University, Seoul, Republic of Korea in 2020. Since Jan. 2023, he has been working as a Research Professor at Chung-Ang University, Seoul, Republic of Korea. His research interests include the design and analysis of frequency and pattern reconfigurable origami antennas, deployable origami antennas, 3-D printed antennas, and shape memory materials based smart antennas. He has authored more than 40 journal and conference papers focused on reconfigurable, deployable, smart materials-based antennas, and quasi-isotropic antennas.

Shahid Bashir received the B.Sc. degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Engineering and Technology, Peshawar, Pakistan, in 2001, and the Ph.D. Degree in Wireless Communications from the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering, Loughborough University, Leicestershire, UK, in 2009. He is an Assistant Professor in the Electrical Engineering Department, UET Peshawar, where he is also a member of National Center of Artificial Intelligence (NCAI) and Centre of Intelligent Systems and Networks Research (CISNR). He has published more than 50 research papers in various reputed journals and conferences. His main areas of research interest are wearable antennas, Origami antennas, Metamaterials, Electromagnetic band gap materials, Reconfigurable and miniaturized antennas for 5G, and THz antennas.

Slawomir Koziel received the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electronic engineering from Gdansk University of Technology, Poland, in 1995 and 2000, respectively. He also received the M.Sc. degrees in theoretical physics and in mathematics, in 2000 and 2002, respectively, as well as the PhD in mathematics in 2003, from the University of Gdansk, Poland. He is currently a Professor with the Department of Engineering, Reykjavik University, Iceland. His research interests include CAD and modeling of antennas and microwave circuits, simulation-driven design, surrogate-based optimization, space mapping, circuit theory, evolutionary computation and numerical analysis. In recent years, he has been working extensively on surrogate-based modeling and optimization techniques as well as computationally efficient simulation-driven design methods for microwave engineering and aerospace engineering. He has published over 15 books, 30 book chapters and over 1,000 peer-reviewed research papers. He is a founder and director of Engineering Optimization & Modeling Center at Reykjavik University. Slawomir Koziel is a recipient of Fulbright Scholarship for the academic year 2003/2004. He has served on the Editorial Board of various international journals, program committee member as well as co-organizer of numerous special sessions and workshops at international conferences. He is a Chief Editor of Int. J. Antennas Propag., an Associate Editor of several journals (IET Microwaves Ant. Prop., El. Lett., Int. J. Math. Modeling Num. Opt., Int. J. Numerical Modeling). He has also been a guest co-editor of several special issues of international journals (including IEEE Trans. Microwave Theory Techn., Optimization and Engineering, Int. J. RF and Microwave CAE, Int. J. Math. Modelling and Num. Opt, Electronics, Applied Sciences).
