Results using a new translation operator for the Multi-Level Fast Multipole Method are presented. Based on Gaussian beams, the translation operator allows a significant portion of the plane-wave directions to be neglected, resulting in a much faster translation step. Publication:…
The design and optimization of a single-layer multifaceted dual-polarization contoured beam reflectarray with different coverages in each polarization has been presented. The reflectarray is optimized using a direct optimization technique to produce a contoured beam for a European coverage in…
We are happy to announce the release of CHAMP 3.1.0. Besides the usual weeding out of a few bugs, this version brings major new features to assist you in your horn and reflector terminal design. Some of the most noteworthy…
Oscar Borries, working on his doctoral thesis at TICRA, was awarded the 2’nd price for the best Student Paper award at this year’s EuCAP. We, his colleagues at TICRA, are very proud and happy on his behalf. It was a…
The Physical Optics approximation is a widely used asymptotic method for calculating the scattering from electrically large bodies. It requires significant computational work and little memory, and is thus well suited for application on a Graphics Processing Unit. Here, we…
