The properties of conventional antennas are fixed by the initial design and cannot be changed. A reconfigurable antenna, on the other hand, can dynamically change its properties, and it can adjust its behavior for a given propagation condition. This dissertation work concentrates on novel reconfiguration technologies, including design, microfabrication, and characterization aspects with an emphasis on their applications to multifunctional reconfigurable antennas. In the literature, reconfigurable antennas have made use of various reconfiguration techniques. The most common techniques utilized revolved around switching mechanisms. Other techniques such as the incorporation of variable capacitors, varactors, and physical structure manipulation surfaced recently to …

In today’s fast-paced world, mobility is a very important factor in improving the quality of living. The purpose of an automated transportation system (ATS) is to provide mobility to one and all, irrespective of their capabilities. An ATS requires a lot of planning to be efficient and safe for public use. One of the main aspects of safety is to determine the location of the individual vehicles within the system and ensure that their location is not posing any hazard to other vehicles in the system or any other entity outside the system. The process of determining or verifying the …
