WELCOME MESSAGES
Welcome to the 17th European Microwave Week
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the 17th European Microwave Week
to be held in Rome at the Fiera di Roma from 5th to 10th October. Our
motto “Connecting the Future” relates to the connection between the
cultural heritage that is so rich in a city like Rome and the future of modern
technology: Culture in its true meaning embraces both art and science.
With this in mind, some special events have been planned to help you
enjoy the beauty of the “Eternal City” with its astonishing monuments
spanning 2500 years of history.
Hulsmeyer’s Telemobiloskop” and touching upon the “Autonomous Driving
– status-quo and the next generation of automotive RADAR”.
Organised since 1998 by the European Microwave Association, EuMW is
the premier microwave event in Europe, bringing together the microwave
community from around the world. The week comprises the 44th European
Microwave Conference (EuMC) to be held from October 6th to October 9th,
the 9th European Microwave Integrated Circuits Conference (EuMIC) to
be held on 6th and 7th October, and the 11th European Radar Conference
(EuRAD) that will run from October 8th to October 10th. Another key event
of EuMW is the European Microwave Exhibition, the largest microwave
and RF trade show in Europe.
Best Paper Prizes. The EuMC Paper Prize Ceremony will take place just
before the closing session of the EuMC. The EuMC Microwave Prize, the
EuMC Young Engineer Prizes, the Student Challenge Prize and the Student
Design Competition Prizes will be presented in recognition of the most
significant contributions in the respective categories.
A vast variety of technical events are also organised to complement
the three conferences and the exhibition. Besides a wide selection of
Workshops and Short Courses to be held on Sunday, Monday and Friday,
the Defence, Security and Space Forum continues to be a major event.
Thanks to its resounding success since its inception in 2010, it will take
place on Wednesday 8th October and feature executives from industry,
academia, the military and from space agencies.
Technical Programme Highlights. The response to the Call for Papers of
EuMW 2014 has been impressive, with 1124 papers submitted to the three
conferences from around 60 countries, and 32 workshop and short course
proposals. This has resulted in an outstanding technical programme with
109 technical sessions, 518 oral papers and 144 posters, special, focused
and panel sessions, covering a very broad range of both conventional and
emerging technical subjects. Moreover, in connection with the Exhibition,
exhibitor workshops and seminars on a variety of topics have been
organised.
The opening and closing plenary sessions of each of the three conferences
will feature keynote lectures delivered by internationally renowned leaders
in their respective fields.
Two important anniversaries will be celebrated during the week. Exactly
150 years ago James C. Maxwell presented to the Royal Society his last
fundamental memory on Electromagnetism. During his keynote speech in
the opening session of the week Professor O. Bucci will elucidate on the
evolution of Maxwell’s thoughts, which ultimately led to the development
of his theory of the electromagnetic field.
No less exciting will be the EuMC Special Session organised by Richard
Snyder, honoring the 50th anniversary of the famous book by Matthaei,
Young and Jones, the “Black Bible”. The lead author of the book, Prof.
George Matthaei will provide a Skype presentation covering the historical
aspects of the book, its contributors and its impact on the entire microwave
industry. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn and to hear
“inside” information and to pay homage to this great book and its lead
author.
“A Tribute to Arthur A. Oliner and His Scientific Heritage for the European
Microwave Community”, will be paid by a Special Session organised by
P. Lampariello and A. Galli. In the framework of the fruitful collaboration
established since 2007 between EuMA and the Asia Pacific Microwave
Conference, a Special Session on APMC will feature three outstanding
presentations highlighting recent achievements in microwave technology
in this region of the world. Two Special Sessions are included in the EuRAD
programme, spanning, “110 years of radar developments in Europe after

EuMW/EuMC Opening Sessions. The opening session of the week is
scheduled as usual on Tuesday morning and will also be the opening of
the EuMC. After the welcome addresses, two keynote lectures will be
presented. Besides Bucci’s lecture, Dr. Philipp Schierstaedt from Infineon
will speak on “RF- and RF-Power Devices for Communications and Active
Safety Systems”.
EuMW/EuMC Closing Sessions. The closing session of the EuMC will
feature an exciting panel discussion promoted by the European Radio and
Microwave Interest Group (EuRaMIG) on the “Impact on Research Policy
and Technical Developments in Europe of the Internet-of-Things and other
Technologies within Horizon 2020”, featuring five known specialists in
this field from the political, technical and academic sectors. The panel will
stress the role of microwave technology as the key enabling technology for
such applications. Final remarks from EuMC Chairs, EuMA President and
the invitation to EuMC 2015 in Paris will conclude the Closing Ceremony.
Women in Engineering. The well established Women in Engineering
event, co-sponsored by the IEEE MTT-Society, will include a panel session
on, “Exploiting microwaves for preservation and enhancement of cultural
heritages and archaeological sites”, and will end with a guided tour to the
archeological site of Ostia Antica, the ancient port of Rome. Attendees,
especially women, are invited to present a few slides discussing their
research themes and expertise, which could be exploited for monitoring,
preserving and sensing ancient cultural heritage, of which Rome is so rich.
Student Competitions and Recruitment. Special attention is being
paid to encourage student participation and their active involvement
through two student competitions open to Master and Doctoral students.
The Student Challenge is a poster competition where groups of students
develop new ideas based on papers presented at the conference. The
Student Design Competition is a design and measurement contest where
the students present the performance of their prototypes in a special event
held during the week.
After the success in Nuremberg in 2013, the Industrial Career Platform will
be an opportunity for companies to meet students and young engineers
looking for a career in the microwave and RF sector. A dedicated area will
be reserved for this purpose between the exhibition and the conference
halls where companies and students can meet.
Social Events. A Welcome Reception is offered to all conference delegates
and invited exhibitors on Tuesday 7th October at Fiera di Roma. A special
blend of art, history, music and Italian food will be the feature of a very
special Gala Dinner on Wednesday 8th October in the historical Palazzo
Brancaccio. The dinner will be preceded by a vocal music concert in the
magnificent ancient Basilica di San Martino ai Monti, featuring the famous
Italian soprano Gemma Bertagnolli.
I am sure you’ll enjoy a memorable experience in
Rome at the 2014 EuMW.

WELCOME MESSAGES
Welcome from the President of the
European Microwave Association
Welcome to the 2014 European Microwave Week on behalf of the
European Microwave Association EuMA, the organisation behind
the Week. Our mission is to promote microwaves in Europe and to
foster networking between microwave scientists and engineers in
Europe. We are pursuing this in several ways but our key event is
the European Microwave Week.
For those who are not familiar with EuMA: We are open to
membership for all working in the field of microwaves, particularly
from Europe, but also from around the world. The General
Assembly, the highest governing body of the Association, gathers
representatives from European countries, from North America, from
the Asia-Pacific region, and from North Africa and Middle East. If
you are not a EuMA member yet, I encourage you to join. Among
other benefits, such as reduced fees for attending the Week and
other EuMA-sponsored conferences and workshops, you will have
access to our website which provides an archive of publications
and the on-line version of the International Journal on Microwave
and Wireless Technologies as well as networking opportunities.
European Microwave Week (EuMW) is the premier microwave
conference and exhibition in Europe. Its centrepiece is the
European Microwave Conference (EuMC), the largest of the
3 conferences that form the Week. It is complemented by the
European Microwave Integrated Circuits Conference (EuMIC),
focusing on semiconductor device and circuit technologies, and the
European Radar Conference (EuRAD), targeting the field of radar,
from components to applications. The success of EuMW is also a
result of the collaboration with the IEEE MTT Society (technical
co-sponsor of the Week) and the GAAS Association (co-sponsor
of EuMIC). But the Week is not only conferences, the Exhibition
organised by our long-standing partner Horizon House forms an
integral part of it.
As you can imagine, preparing and hosting EuMW is a major effort,
from paper submission and review to the on-site organization at
the venue, and this is accomplished by a team of volunteers year
by year. Therefore, my special and sincere thanks go to Roberto
Sorrentino, 2014 General Chair, and to Luciano Tarricone, General
TPC Chair, to Lorenzo Mariani and Luca Perregrini, EuMC Chair and
TPC Chair, to Franco Giannini and Paolo Colantonio, EuMIC Chair
and TPC Chair, and to Enzo Dalle Mese and Fabrizio Berizzi, EuRAD
Chair and TPC Chair, just to name a few on behalf of the entire
team. They all have been working hard to set up an outstanding
technical and scientific programme for you and to make your stay
in Rome exciting and enjoyable. Thank you!

After a period of 5 years, EuMW is back to Rome. I think everybody
will agree that Rome is a fascinating city and 2009 was a
memorable event. At the time of writing this welcome address it is
clear that we have a truly high number of paper submissions this
year. I am sure this success will continue further in preparations and
throughout the Week itself. The 2014 logo shows the Colosseum
and this is a nice contrast to the theme “Connecting The Future”.
Indeed, bringing together the ancient and modern times is one of
the characteristic features of The Eternal City.
Finally, as every year, we hope you will not only get exciting ideas
and new insights from presentations and posters but also find
enough time to meet with colleagues and friends. We look forward
to you joining us in Rome!

Dr. Madjar has been involved heavily in restructuring the European
Microwave Conference and European Microwave Week. In March
1989 and on behalf of Israel industry and learned societies, he
invited a few colleagues from MTT and Prof. Vander Vorst to a
seminar in Israel on how to establish seminars, joint between
IEEE-MTT, IEEE-Region 8, and European institutions. At that time,
Israel was not represented in the Management Committee of the
European Microwave Conference. In one of these meetings, he
expressed his interest for having Israel among the represented
countries in the Management Committee of EMC. Very soon
he joined the Management Committee, and in 1997 the EuMC
was held in Jerusalem and he was its chairman. After that Dr.
Madjar became one of the founders of the European Microwave
Association and served in its first Board of Directors. He was also a
member of numerous EuMC TPCs .
Presently Dr. Madjar is semi-retired. Occasionally he teaches in
Drexel University in Philadelphia and Tel Aviv University in Israel.
EuMA AWARDS

Career Award
Yakov Shifrin has graduated
from the Physical faculty of
the Leningrad State University
(1941) and the Radio faculty
of the S. M. Budenny Military
Academy of Communications
(1944).
He is the Second World
War veteran. From 1948
to 1980 Yakov Shifrin was
with the Govorov Military
Radio Engineering Academy
Professor Yakov Shifrin
developing from a postgraduate
student to professor and chair head. After retiring from the Armed
Forces in 1980 Shifrin has served as Professor and chair head at
the Kharkov National University of Radio Electronics.
Prof. Shifrin has founded the statistical antenna theory, which has
been world wide recognized as the cornerstone in the general
antenna theory and practice. His further research in antenna
theory has resulted in the development of a sufficiently general
theory of antennas with nonlinear elements and its extension to
active phased arrays. Prof. Shifrin has also led the first in the USSR
thorough study of the long-distance tropospheric propagation.
Prof. Shifrin had actively worked in academia for over 50 years and
established an influential scientific school in USSR on antenna &
propagation theory. He has grown up over 20 Doctor of Science
(equivalent to German Dr. habil.) and over 50 Candidates of
Science (equivalent to PhD). He has published about 300 journal
and conference papers including 12 monographs. Since 1991
Prof. Shifrin was active to consolidate Ukrainian antenna and
microwave community and integrating it into the international
one. He was a founding member and the first President of the
Ukraine National Antenna Association. He has created the EastUkrainian Joint Chapter IEEE and the Kharkov Joint Chapter IEEE
in 1995 and 2000, respectively.
Prof. Shifrin’s activities have been recognized by the microwave
community and by the USSR and later Ukrainian state. Among
other awards and titles, in 1983 he was awarded by the A.S.Popov
Prize of the Presidium Academy of Science USSR in 1983 with
citation: “For works in the field of Statistical Antenna Theory that
fundamentally contributed to the antenna theory and techniques”.

International Journal of Microwave and Wireless
Technologies: EuMW2014 Special Issue
The International Journal of Microwave and Wireless Technologies was
created in 2009 by the European Microwave Association (EuMA) and
Cambridge University Press for the benefit of the microwave research
community in Europe and overseas.
The journal is published six times a year. It allows academic and
industrial researchers to promote their work and stay connected with
the most recent developments in microwave and RF technology. The
journal is referenced in databases such as Scopus and Google Scholar
and is indexed in the Thomson Reuters Web of Science. Following the
success of previous microwave weeks, the journal will again publish a
special issue dedicated to the European Microwave Week 2014.
The authors of a number of highly ranked papers presented at
the conferences will be invited to submit an extended version for
publication in the journal. The special issue will be guest edited by
Professors Luca Perregrini, Paolo Colantonio, and Fabrizio Berizzi.
Accepted papers will be published online at http://journals.cambridge.
org/MRF within six weeks of acceptance and can be referenced using
their DOI (Digital Object Identifier). Once all submissions are received
the articles will be collated into an issue and published in print, which
is expected to appear in June 2015.

PASSPORT & VISA REQUIREMENTS
A valid passport will be required for entry into the organising
country, in this case Italy. Since EuMW events are held in the
European Union, no visa is usually required for travellers with
passports from a number of countries, like for instance: European
Union, United States, Canada, Japan, South Korea, Australia
or Singapore. However you will need to check with your local
embassy. If you need a visa, we recommend that you speak with
the Italian Embassy, in your own country. You should organise this
at least 3 to 4 months prior to the EuMW.
PERSONAL INVITATION
The organisers will be pleased to send a letter of invitation to any
conference delegate, speaker or exhibitor requesting it. In the case
of delegates, it is understood that such an invitation is intended to
help potential delegates in raising funds or obtaining a visa. The
letter of invitation is therefore not a commitment on the part of
the conference organisers to provide any financial support and the
conference fees will not be waived.

SPECIAL CONFERENCE EVENTS
EuMW 2014 Student Challenge
Date: Tuesday 7th until Thursday 9th October 2014
Organiser: Maurizio Bozzi, University of Pavia, Italy
The Student Challenge has become a fine tradition at the European
Microwave Week and is offered in 2014 for the seventh time. The
Student Challenge is an opportunity for bachelor, master, and
doctoral students from all over the world with a variety of academic
backgrounds, to work together on a specific topic in the wide and
challenging field of microwaves. The aim is to promote innovative
thinking, teamwork and pro-active behaviour, skills future employers
will highly value. For the EuMW 2014 Student Challenge, several
teams shall be formed; each team has to be composed of a maximum
of four members, preferably from different institutions and with a
variety of backgrounds. The aim for all teams is to present, explain,
and defend a fresh, visionary, application-oriented concept by a
poster. The poster must be based on at least two papers presented
at the EuMW 2014, of which only one paper may be authored
by a member of the team. Eventually, each team will give a fiveminutes presentation of the innovative concepts they have devised.
A technical jury, composed of prominent members of academia and
industry, will evaluate the presentation and the poster of each team
according to the following criteria: originality, content, feasibility,
and clarity. The winners will be announced during the EuMW/
EuMC Closing Session and the winning team will receive a prize
with a value of €1500. All bachelor, master, and doctoral students
registered in any one of the EuMW 2014 conferences are eligible
for participation in the Student Challenge. Updated information and
further details can be found at www.eumweek.com.
Registration
To register, please send an e-mail to [email protected] and

event is to encourage students to become involved in the dynamic
profession of microwave engineering and to apply their knowledge to
practical design use. Competitors are required to design and if necessary construct and measure hardware solutions for predetermined
design requirements. They will be given the opportunity to challenge
themselves and other participating students for the best solution!
During EuMW 2014, three student design competitions across diverse
technical areas will be organised. The presentation of the design solutions and prototypes will take place during the conference week, in a
special event on Wednesday 8th October 2014. Required test equipment for the evaluation measurements will be provided by Agilent
Technologies to the participants. For each competition, the winner,
as judged by the technical committee (based on the figure of merit
published on the website of the conference), will be recognised during
the EuMW/EuMC Closing Session and will receive the EuMW 2014
Student Design Prize with a value of €1500, sponsored by Thales
Alenia Space. In addition, the winners will be given the opportunity
to submit an article to the EuMA International Journal of Microwave
and Wireless Technologies in order to share their design techniques
and experience with the microwave community. All doctoral, master

Location: Church of San Martino ai Monti and Palazzo Brancaccio,
Via del Monte Oppio n. 7
A special blend of art, history, music and Italian food will be the
feature of an exceptional Gala Dinner on Wednesday 8th October
in the historical Palazzo Brancaccio. The dinner will be preceded
by a vocal music concert in the magnificent ancient Basilica di San
Martino ai Monti, featuring the famous Italian soprano Gemma
Bertagnolli, accompanied by the pianist Linda Di Carlo. In the
concert program, the flexibility of Gemma Bertagnolli’s voice and
her great musicality will accompany the audience along a time
journey replenished of beautiful singing and vocal virtuosity, from
the “Italian” Mozart to the challenging technique of Rossini and the
clear musical style of the 19th century Italian composer Wolf - Ferrari.
The dinner will take place in the Brancaccio Palace. It is the last
Roman Patrician Palace built in 1880 in the heart of Rome, between
Colosseum and the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore. Princess Mary
Elisabeth Field, American wife of Salvatore Brancaccio, in 1879
committed to the architect Gaetano Koch the construction of the
palace located in a beautiful, natural old park among roman ruins,
centuries old plants and fountains, mixed by vegetable essence.

Microwave Sensors and Technologies for Earth
Observation
Luigi Pasquali, CEO of Telespazio, Italy&France
11:20h - 13:00h
Microwaves play a huge role in space technology. Virtually all
communications with vehicles for space exploration is carried on with
microwaves. Microwave remote sensing is a field driven by advances in
space technique and sensor design. Space-based solar power systems
convert sunlight to microwaves outside the atmosphere. However, one of
the most fascinating field of microwave study in space concerns with the
mysteries of the origin and evolution of the Universe and the fundamental
laws on the Nature. Sensitive receivers detect the microwave radiation
from stars, galaxies and, specially, the cosmic microwave energy from the
Big Bang. The observation of microwaves emission from Ultra-High Energy
Cosmic Rays showers has opened a golden channel for the detection of
these particles, promising messengers of the world of the Strings and Dark
Matter.
The deployment of a number of microwave sensors for Earth Observation
from satellite characterized last decade and as well as the next few years
the launch of Copernicus sentinels. A variety of sensors to contribute to
a better knowledge of our Earth with remarkable fall outs in terms of
scientific application and commercial services. The speech will give a
quick overview focusing the key role of microwave technologies and the
remarkable positioning of European actors.

The Birth of Maxwell’s Equations
Ovidio M. Bucci, University of Naples “Federico II”
11:20h - 13:00h
Exactly 150 year ago, in October the 27th, James C. Maxwell presented to
the Royal Society the abstract of his third and last fundamental memory on
Electromagnetism, entitled A Dynamical Theory of the Electromagnetic Field
(published in the Transactions of the Society the following year), in which the
equations bearing his name appeared for the first time. This introduced a new way
of looking at the electromagnetic phenomena, opening completely new conceptual
(and practical) horizons. Together with the other seminal Maxwell’s contribution,
the kinetic theory of gases, this modified the body of accepted theories and
physical conceptions, laying the foundations of today’s vision of a physical world
made of particles interacting through fields.
It must be stressed that the development of both theories was not motivated
by new experimental findings, which did not fit in the existing scientific body.
In particular, in the case of Electromagnetism, all the facts known in Maxwell’s
time had been satisfactorily interpreted within the Newtonian paradigm and
incorporated in a theoretical framework of excellent predictive power, which was
indeed exploited and further developed until Hertz’s experimental verification of
the most striking physical consequence of Maxwell’s theory, i.e., the existence of
electromagnetic waves. As for Newton before him and Einstein after, the main
motivation behind Maxwell’s effort was metaphysical, i.e., his adherence to a
“world view” alternative to the dominant one, that introduced by Michael Faraday
in connection with his studies on electromagnetic induction and polarization.
The construction of a coherent and satisfactory theory based on this alternative
conception required ten years and an exceptional intellectual effort, which led
to the electromagnetic theory of light and to the formulation of those equations
we still adopt for the description of electromagnetic phenomena. In this lecture,
through an analysis of the three fundamental memoirs on Electromagnetism
and of the extant scientific letters and manuscripts, we will try to elucidate the
main stages of this enterprise in order to follow and clarify the evolution of
Maxwell’s thoughts, which ultimately led to the development of his theory of the
electromagnetic field.

RF- and RF-Power Devices for Communications and
Active Safety Systems
Philipp von Schierstaedt, Vice President & General Manager, Infineon Technologies,
Munich, Germany
In the last years, the exponential growth of the mm-wave technology for
applications such as automotive-radar and the wireless market has been fostered
by the technological evolution of silicon-based integrated circuits. Silicon provides
a fundamental advantage in terms of power consumption, level of integration and
cost compared to traditional high performance GaAs and InP technologies. RF ICs
in silicon combined with advanced packaging concepts are the base while the
«product to system» concept is the way to achieve high-end system performance.
A technology niche which is frequently overlooked, is the RF-power. The successful
evolution of the LDMOS technology over the last decade has led to its dominance
in High-Power Amplifiers for various applications like wireless infrastructure,
television broadcasting, medical equipment and radar. The key performance
parameters for the High-Power Amplifiers and devices are efficiency, linearity,
output-power, reliability, ruggedness and low cost. In terms of efficiency and
output-power LDMOS has tough competition from AlGaN/GaN because of it’s
superior properties in terms of power density, carrier mobility and efficiency at
higher frequencies. Another important area in RF-power is the packaging and
the packages evolve from passive boxes to smart housings with integrated RF
components to achieve higher levels of integration and low cost.

16:40h - 18:20h
Microwave technologies are key enabling technologies for all space
applications. Space Telecommunication systems, Observation from space
sensor, scientific instrument, deep space radiocommunications are some
of the application domain where microwave technologies are essential.
ESA, in conjunction with European Commission and EDA, is working
to define a road map to secure appropriate developments in Europe to
secure technology non dependence as well as to secure the timing for the
adequate level of maturity for application missions.
Rapid growth and increasing complexity of portable communication
applications are forcing miniaturization of the whole system and reduction
in total power consumption. Same trend is applicable to professional
niche market as aerospace applications and missions. The paper will show
the remarkable progress in the RF miniaturization achieved in last years
through the RC CMOS SOI technology.

Consumer Radar- Opportunities and Challenges
11:20h - 13:00h
The RF spectrum, from below 1 MHz to above 100 GHz, represents
a precious and strictly finite resource. It is used for a wide range of
purposes including communications, radio and television broadcasting,
radionavigation, and radar. All users have a need for greater bandwidth.
As the demand from all of these users continues to grow for more
access to spectrum, there is ever-greater competition for this resource.
Radar represents a fundamentally important use of the EM spectrum, in
applications which include Air Traffic Control, marine navigation, geophysical
monitoring of Earth resources from space, automotive safety, weather
tracking, as well as numerous applications in defence and security. The
purpose of this talk is to explain the nature and severity of the spectrum
congestion problem, and to describe a number of possible approaches to its
solution, both from regulatory and technical points of view.
Modern semiconductor technology, such as small geometry CMOS, is
providing the opportunity to build very small and very low cost single chip
radar systems operating at millimetre wave frequencies. Such tiny radar
systems open up a vast range of new applications from automotive radar,
safety helmet radar, bicycle radar, health monitoring radar, robotics radar,
micro-UAV radar, and a host of other applications. Co-operative networks
of these tiny radars is also an exciting possibility. Considerable progress
has been made in designing and building millimetre wave CMOS radar
systems and addressing the technology limitations imposed by CMOS.
However many challenges remain relating to interference mitigation when
there exist large numbers of small radars operating in close proximity to
each other. Waveform diversity and cognitive radar techniques assist in
addressing these challenges. This talk will discuss current work on CMOS
radar hardware, signal processing, waveform scheduling and the idea of
opportunistic radar. Further progress on fundamental limitations of tiny
radar systems will also be presented.

Internet-of-Things (I-o-T) or Autonomous Driving (a-Drive) based on radar
technology will be two of the most important and pushing technologies
for our future world within the timeframe of Horizon 2020 - the brand new
EU framework research program. Every European citizen should be able
to benefit from the “digital agenda” as well as he or she should be able
to drive “accident free” on European roads. To make this happen, i.e. to
confirm the role of microwave technology as the key enabling technology
for such applications, the entire supply chain of materials for area-wide
employment in Europe, from semiconductors over components and subsystems to the system providers and the final customers – the European
citizen – has to be pro - and se-cured in Europe. How this can be done and
should be fostered and realized will be discussed in detail by five known
specialists in this field; from the political, technical and academic area.

The economic, political and societal aspects of the current situation
conditions the development of technology in Europe. On one side
innovation is demanded as a means to improve the well-being of the
citizens and to boost the competitiveness of industry. On the other
side funding is needed for Research and Technology to have structured
innovation, being this limited by the current state of affairs. As far this
situation is complex, the approaches to deal with it are complex as well
both technically and strategically. Trends for future radar systems will
be analysed. The different aspects which influence the way ahead will
be commented and the possible answers from the Radar System Level
perspective technical solutions will be discussed. The European Radar
community will have to compete with emerging countries solutions and
with the already established ones, so an EU common strategy is needed.
The proposed way ahead will be through EU Collaboration Programmes as
a mean to catalyse future Radar EU Research and Technology solutions.

WELCOME MESSAGE
Welcome from the Workshop and Short Courses Chairs
The EuMW2014 organising committee has provided you with
a large and diverse workshops and short courses programme
spanning from well established microwave theory and
technologies to emerging materials, technologies and systems
that are currently attracting the interest of the community.
Among a very large number of high quality proposals, we
were able to select 23 workshops and 4 short courses. The
topics covered comprise theoretical and applicative aspects of
different, circuits and systems for RF and microwave applications.
Specific themes are: stability issues in microwave circuits and
systems, photonics, nano-electromagnetics, SIW and multi-layer
technologies, RF-MEMS, THz systems, GaN and RF power amplifier,
EMI challenges, time-modulated arrays, microwave sensors,
energy harvesting and wireless power transmission systems,
embedded wireless systems; UWB localization techniques, RF
and microwaves as enablers for the paradigm of the internet of
things and of the smart cities, radar and compressive sensing.

WS and SC Chair

Luisa Marescialli
WS and SC Co-Chair
Even though workshops and short courses are endorsed in
specific conferences, they should be attended by any scientist
planning to broaden its perspectives in the RF and microwave
field and looking for an interactive discussion with colleagues all
over the world. Indeed the programme is able to attract attendees
from several technical backgrounds, from the system level down
to new materials and components level. It is noteworthy that
we could not put together such a broad workshops and short
courses programme without the valuable and dedicated efforts
of the organisers and of the authors of the presentations. We
hope that you will enjoy technical depth and breadth of the
programme and that you will be engaged in fruitful discussion,
thus taking great advantage from the interactive nature of the
workshops and short courses programme in Rome.

Abstract
This workshop focuses on the opportunities, requirements and unique challenges
associated to the transition of MEMS technology into high volume production while
microsystems are finding their way into a broad spectrum of other applications in
communications, test equipment and sensors. Particular emphasis will be given
to packaging and CMOS-backend integration technologies that are used from RF
to millimeter wave frequencies. The microwave-to-terahertz range presents new
exciting perspectives for label free bio-sensing and medical diagnostics. Critical
aspects for microsystems operating in this regime, such as impedance match,
sensitivity and very high frequency modeling will be then addressed along with
innovative solutions based on dielectric micro-spectroscopy and development
of new microfluidic microwave-sensors. The first part of the workshop will focus
on present opportunities for successfully commercialized CMOS-integrated MEM
sensors and radiofrequency tuning systems. The second part of the workshop will
focus on novel approaches for microsystem integration into biosensing platforms
and nanoscale characterization. Though investigating devices as different as tuning
arrays and biosensors, both parts will underline the inherently similar challenges in
terms of microsystem manufacturing, cost and reliability. The workshop is promoted
by the EuMA Topical Group on RF MEMS.

Abstract
Wireless Power Transmission (WPT) is an emerging technology that actually is
reviving the Tesla idea of transmitting energy via air. WPT gained a new rejoice
recently due to technology improvement and massification of electronic wireless
sensors and gadgets, which are hungry for energy but are battery-fed. The World
Wireless Research Forum (WWRF) estimates that 7 trillion devices will serve
7 billion people in 2020. WPT-related research has been published over a wide
range of journals and conference proceedings. This makes it difficult for the novice
interested researcher to get acquainted with the basic ideas and background
information. In this workshop several near and far field approaches for contactless
and wireless power transmission will be presented, including magnetic coupling,
resonant magnetic coupling, electric coupling, resonant electric coupling and
electromagnetic transmission. Next to that, practical issues and applications of
WPT technologies will be discussed in detail by researchers active in the field. This
workshop is organised and presented by members of COST action IC1301 WIPE:

AlGaN/GaN HEMTs: Material Properties, Trapping Effect
and High Power Performance
Emerging applications of RF/MW frequencies demand more and more linear power
with ever greater efficiency, frequency and bandwidth. The attractive material
properties of the GaN make GaN-HEMT a superior candidate to meet these
requirements. Since its introduction, GaN PAs have been creating many records.
However, there are much more potential still needs to be better understood and
utilized. An amplifier operating in Class-A favours linearity and harmonics, but
suffers from lower efficiency and higher thermal load. On the other hand, Class-AB
struggles to meet bias stability, gain and linearity needs. In addition, withstanding
high output mismatch and achieving linearization and modulation requirements
with an extreme bandwidth (like in EMC/EW), meeting the bandwidth and
efficiency in Doherty, and the effect of trapping/memory on a device performance
raise several technical challenges to address. This very timely workshop will
provide a comprehensive overview and understanding on the recent important
advancements in GaN device and circuit design and linearization to packaging
and system implementation. Most importantly, the workshop will aware the
participants on the critical issues with design hints, technology challenges and
the latest state-of-the-art developments, which enabling advanced industrial
applications from wireless communication to ultra-wideband EMC and defense.
The speakers are the experts and are the leading contributors in both industrial

Abstract
With the increased usage of satellite communication systems, high efficiency and
high output power amplifiers have also been required for satellite transponders
and will be demanded in the future. Actually travelling wave tube amplifiers have
been widely used for such applications. However, a TWTA needs an extremely
high voltage (order of thousands of volts), and its reliability is considered not
ideal because of the hot electrons in the vacuum tube. Due to these reasons,
solid-state power amplifier (SSPA) based on GaN technology is considered the
next optimum solution. Currently, the main potential commercial application of
power GaN technology is for telecommunication, being high power and high
efficiency technology a key factor for base stations. The advantage of GaN is the
wider frequency bandwidth, the better thermal budget (suitable for CW mode
application), the integration (compact module for radar) and the higher cut-off
frequency. The exploitation of GaN technology for space applications is the basis
for addressing the space market and developing future business opportunities.
The aim of this workshop is to present significant contributions related to activities
and scientific results performed for the space qualification of GaN technologies
in Europe.

Abstract
Indoor localization and tracking has been gaining relevance due to widespread of
devices and technologies, as well as the necessity of seamless solutions for locationbased services, for example, in the field of automated guided vehicles in manufacturing
lines, radiofrequency identification (RFID), first-responder navigation, asset navigation
and tracking, indoor unmanned vehicles, or people-movers. A current trend is to
concentrate the positioning capabilities on smartphones for the detection and
localization of energy autonomous tags making use of energy harvesting techniques.
Therefore, there is the need to design new technologies capable of providing both
high-definition positioning accuracy and extremely low consumption and cost at tag
side. Within this context, the goal of the workshop is to advance the development of
new positioning technologies, such as those based on ultra-wide bandwidth (UWB)
signals, with particular emphasis on energy autonomous solutions. This workshop will
bring together academic and industrial researchers to identify and discuss technical
challenges and recent results related to indoor localization. Part of the workshop will be
devoted to the EU Research Projects SELECT and SOFIA, thus offering a balanced mix
of academic, industrial and demo oriented talks.

Abstract
The Scanning Microwave Microscope (SMM) opens new perspectives for material
and device characterization at the micro- and nano-scale. The SMM is a recent
development in nano-scale imaging technique that combines the lateral resolution
of atomic force microscopy (AFM) with the high measurement precision of
microwave network analysis at GHz frequencies. It consists of an AFM interfaced
with a vector network analyzer (VNA). SMM allows to measure complex materials
properties for nano-electronics, materials science, and life science applications with
operating frequencies ranging between 1 MHz and 20 GHz. This new measurement
technique has been designed for probing local reflection and transmission of
microwaves from devices with nano-scale spatial resolution down to 1-10 nm
resolution. The state-of-the art comprises the possibility to evaluate locally the
complex permittivity including the materials dielectric constant, the dopant density
of nanoscale transistors, as well as sub-surface imaging of biological samples like
cells and bacteria. High contrast imaging has been already proven from reflection
measurements, and transmission imaging is under study for a more complete
evaluation encompassing a two-port, four parameter characterization. Scientific
work on complex impedance calibration, permittivity and dielectric constant
evaluation is presented. The experimental approach is complemented by 3D FEM
nano-scale simulations. Imaging in liquid is presented including life cell studies at
microwave frequencies.

The potential of nano-sized elements and nanostructured materials for the
manipulation of electromagnetic fields motivates the recent introduction of a new
research discipline–nanoelectromagnetics (NEM), which conceptually is a fusion
of classical electrodynamics with novel methods and approaches of condensed
matter physics. To move towards societal challenges stated by HORIZON 2020
for further European Research Area (ERA) development, as any interdisciplinary
research topic, NEM needs knowledge exchange between different scientific
communities. This workshop aims at bridging the gap between classical topics of
the microwave/RF community and topics more related to fundamental physics and
material science community, in a good blend of material properties, applications,
modeling and future challenges and perspectives. Worldwide known scientists
from both communities will present their recent achievements in the field of: NEM
fundamentals; applied NEM of carbonaceous structures; quantum dots and hybrid
structures for electromagnetic applications; nanophotonics, security, metamaterials,
biomedical applications, chemical and biological sensors, therapeutic techniques
including selective photothermolysis of cancer cells, photo- and thermo-acoustic
imaging; NEM for ICT. This workshop will be the ideal venue for expanding the
horizons of the EuMW community in the direction of a booming research area,
with the opportunity to attract new participants and novel fields of research.

Abstract
This full-day course addresses the fundamental topic of stability in nonlinear
microwave circuits and networks (MCNs), covering concepts, qualitative analysis,
simulation, and engineering design. The many unique qualitative behaviors
possible in commonly used nonlinear MCNs will be illustrated, as well as the
fundamental means by which these behaviors can abruptly arise with parameter
changes (termed a bifurcation). Course attendees will learn about different
types of steady-state solutions, identify instability problems through small- and
large-signal stability analysis in the time/ frequency domains, and understand
the dynamical mechanisms responsible for instabilities. The primary approaches
for stability analysis will be presented and compared, ranging from the familiar
and often inadequate (e.g., Rollet factor, stability circles) to the advanced that can
be implemented using classical harmonic balance methods. The most common
bifurcations will be described, enabling designers to confidently identify them in
measurement and simulation. Practical examples of instability, stability analysis,
and stabilization design will be presented for such important nonlinear circuits as
power amplifiers, frequency multipliers/dividers, and voltage-controlled oscillators.
Other advanced topics covered include stability analysis for modulated signals
and of coupled oscillators. Finally, the vast research area on harnessing nonlinear
dynamics for useful engineering purposes will be surveyed, providing a glimpse into
future nonlinear designs. The course will include video/hardware demonstrations
of bifurcation and nonlinear qualitative behaviors, as well as several live stability
analysis sessions using ADS.

Abstract
Power amplifiers (PA) have a vital role in modern wireless communication and
radar systems. The requirements for simultaneously providing improved efficiency
and linearity, with ever increasing bandwidth needs, are forcing revival of some
old transmitter architectures, development of some new techniques, and improved
modeling for more successful design. This workshop will address a wide variety of
topics related to PA design. Starting with an overview presentation, technology and
design issues at microwave and millimeter-wave frequencies will be overviews. A
wide variety of GaN-based power MMIC designs will be presented and analyzed.
Switched-mode amplifiers are shown to lead to efficient envelope-tracking
transmitters. The application of these and other high efficiency techniques to mmwave PAs will be also under consideration for Si and SiGe processes. Wideband
and efficient solutions based on load modulation concepts, such as the Doherty
and outphasing techniques, are covered in a common framework. Evanescent field
probing of waveforms internal to the amplifier are shown to give important insights
for improved designs. This half-day workshop will feature inspiring presentations
from several distinguished speakers who have been prominent in RFPA research
over the last few years.

Abstract
Several applications in industrial environment benefit from radar based sensors.
Process automation, asset tracking or monitoring and diagnostics are just some
of the areas where radar technology emerged in the last decades. This workshop
will give an insight in different radar technologies for industrial and professional
applications. The basic theory of radar systems, interaction with targets and nonidealities will be discussed before going deep in some radar technologies. A lowcost and low complexity approach is Doppler radar based on continuous wave
signals and delivering the velocity of a target. This concept can be enhanced by
the use of two or more frequencies, called frequency shift keying (FSK) radar that
can additionally measure distances. Also algorithmic aspects will be discussed. If
the frequency is swept continuously we will end up with frequency modulated
continuous wave (FMCW) radars, a very robust approach for difficult environments
with strong multi-path and multi-target influences. A system based on secondary
radar will be presented capable for precise in-door 3-D localization. For high range
resolutions in the micrometer regime and high measurement value update rates
Six-Port based microwave interferometry will be introduced and some special
applications (angle-of-arrival, frequency, surface temperature measurements) will
be shown. As the antenna is an essential part of a radar system, concepts suitable
for industrial applications will be discussed.

Transceiver Technologies for Infrastructure to Vehicle
Free-Flow Intelligent Transportation Systems
The “Smart City” is a concept with increasing significance as our urban environment
is changing with evolving technology. Smart cities imply an electronic infrastructure
which enables electronically smart economy, mobility, environment, healthcare,
living and governance. Such a trend results in a proliferation of electronic devices
and a true concept of the internet of things in a way that was not seen up to date.
These devices should communicate and, in order to be mobile, they should
be wireless and energetically autonomous, id est very low power, passive or
able to scavenge the energy they need. This workshop will discuss the way
wireless technologies can intercept future requirements of smart cities and their
implementation, with a strong focus on the energy aspects and, specifically, on
wireless power transmission opportunities. Some of the talks will include smart
environment approaches, by discussing wireless power transmission approaches
either for powering up mobile devices, but also for implementing smart floors,
in a way that the environment will be an integrated part of the communication
medium, driving us to the wide area electronics concept. Some discussions will
also be made on smart mobility and wireless power transfer to improve vehicular
technology and electric cars in a seamless way.

Abstract
The use of the fourth dimension (4D), time, in the synthesis and analysis of
antenna arrays will play a fundamental role in modern communication and
sensing systems. The need of highly reconfigurable systems, ultra-wideband
signals in radar applications, and high-throughput in communications has
boosted the research activities in this area in the last few decades. The almost
unlimited control combinations and the ease of implementation make these
arrays a versatile and adequate radiation system for modern wireless applications,
such as Cognitive Radio solutions. This workshop aims to provide an overview
on the application scenarios of this new family of arrays, together with a deep
description of the different techniques employed: such as time-modulation by
means of time-controlled switches or as timed arrays. The important role played
by the optimization algorithms in handling time and related parameters is deeply
discussed, by considering different design methods and array applications.
Indeed, modern implementations of 4D arrays enable the remote and software
reconfiguration of the antenna features (frequency, steering, beam shape, multibeam generation) by means of the time-domain control of the array control points.
This class of arrays is also investigated from the RF modelling viewpoint: the design
and characterization of radar and cognitive radio system using wideband multisine approach is presented, together with the nonlinear circuit-level simulation of
time-modulated arrays.

Abstract
Millimetre-wave has been experiencing an ever-increasing demand even for
commercial applications, such as high-speed communication, automotive radar
and imaging, due to overcrowding towards lower frequency bands and wideband
multimedia requirements. MMIC/RFIC technologies are quite matured and
cost-effective for mass production. But, because of parasitics, the circuit/system
assembling techniques are more complex and costlier. The multilayer/3D MultiChip-Module (MCM/SoP) is widely regarded as an excellent solution for mmW
systems and is providing ever-smaller size and weight with greater repeatability
at a low cost. In the recent years, there has been massive advancement in
this field, from fabrication techniques to heterogeneous (wafer-level) circuit
integration technologies. This workshop will provide a comprehensive overview
and a complete understanding on recent important progresses in multilayer/3D
technologies, including that in dielectric substrate (like LTCC, LCP, photoimageable
thick-film, organic and IPD/BCB) for embedding high quality passives, metallization
processes (including Inkjet-printing, Photoimageable and Aerosol-jet printing)
for realising fine and defined conductor geometry, and multilayer substrate and
wafer-level integration techniques (including ball-grid-array (eWLB), fun-out (FOWLB) and interposer). This will also cover the 3D/2.5D MMICs, including Si/glass
interposer based ICs. Further, will aware the participants on the challenges and the
advancement in mixed technologies, enabling novel components and emerging
mm-wave applications (including a 120 GHz MCM Radar). The speakers are the

Abstract
From the strategic agendas of ENIAC, EPoSS and ITRS, it is evident that wireless
applications are gaining more and more importance that results to new
requirements in terms of miniaturization and increased complexity. The limitations
of Moore’s Law in term of physics but also in terms of manufacturability, flexibility
and multi-functionality has motivated research and development to implement
new technologies and new wireless architectures identified as Beyond CMOS
and More than Moore. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are featuring very attractive
intrinsic multi-physic properties. These properties coupled with CMOS compatibility
offer promise for a new generation of smart miniaturized systems for wireless
communications. Graphene also exhibits impressive electrical and mechanical
properties. CMOS compatible microwave graphene devices, still at their infancy,
hold promise for extremely low noise and high speed communications. The main
concept of the NANO-RF project relies on the development of CNT & graphene
based advanced component technologies for the implementation of miniaturized
electronic systems for 2020 and beyond wireless communications and radars. The
major objectives of NANO-RF are the development of i) Active components from
CNTs & graphene, ii) Passive components from CNTs & graphene, iii) capacitive RF
NEMS form CNTs, iv) CNTs based vertical interconnects, v) CNTs & graphene based
ICs. The goal of this workshop is to introduce recent advances and achievements
performed in the context of the NANO RF project.

levels, where RF MEMS could be a key enabling technology for both already
established and novel applications demanding low-loss, low power consumption
and high linearity tuning elements. This workshop will provide an overview of
microwave and mm-wave applications where RF MEMS are effective in order to
meet tight specifications or high end application requirements not well satisfied
by semiconductor counterparts: low-loss and high-linearity tunable filters in
planar and waveguide technologies, wide-band voltage controlled oscillators,
phase shifters, adaptive matching networks, antenna arrays, etc. The focus of the
workshop is put not only on RF MEMS researchers but also in any RF or microwave
designer that can become an RF MEMS user in the near future.

Abstract:
The growth of Internet-enabled smart infrastructures underpinning virtually every
sector of economic and social life requires complex, high performance and highly
integrated miniature electronic systems. The electromagnetic interference will
increase with the anticipated increase of clock speeds, frequency of operation and
circuit density. Immunity levels will also decrease due to lower supply voltages and
lower signal power levels. Traditionally, the potential EMI sources were assessed in
the frequency domain assuming static emissions. This is not valid for multifunctional
devices with many operating modes. New approaches that fully account for time
dependence and uncertainty are needed. The workshop will present some stateof-the-art, unconventional methods and instruments in the realm of EMI prediction
and assessment and will speculate on the challenges lying ahead and the feasible
manners to approach them.

Abstract
The goal of the workshop is to bring together recognised experts in the field
of Compressive Sensing (CS) and radar to provide the audience with the latest
theoretical and experimental results on applications of CS to radar. CS is a relatively
new method for acquisition and processing of sparse signals. The benefits of using
this technique for reducing the acquisition time and costs will be discussed, and its
high-resolution capabilities for target detection, classification and recognition will
be presented. Particular interest will be dedicated to the fields of radar imaging,
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), sparse arrays and MIMO radars. Furthermore,
although the application of CS to radar has been successfully demonstrated in
the last few years, there are still several open questions regarding the integration
and implementation of CS techniques in current and future operational systems.
The workshop will provide an opportunity to the audience to address these open
questions and discuss them with the experts.

Abstract
In classical pulse radars, several types of waveforms are used. Most popular are
linear and non-linear frequency modulation (chirp signals), Costas codes, polyphase
codes, Barker codes and other. The pulse radar however have several limitations
including range and velocity ambiguity, high peak power and lack of LPI (low
probability of intercept) properties, as their emissions can easily be detected
and classified. Since a long time more complicated waveform are being search
to improve some significant properties of radars and increase it performance,
including a renewed interest in the old concept of continuous wave radar, an
architecture often used nowadays. A group of very interesting waveforms is
based on band-limited noise, sometimes modified slightly to obtained required
properties of its ambiguity function. While the available computational power is
now very high, the main limitations in design of sophisticated noise radars come
not from hardware (inc. computing power) but from the lack of deep knowledge
of the synthesis means. The workshop will presents recent development in Noise
Radar Technology with some practical examples and implementations. It will start
with fundamentals of noise radar technology. Then the idea of multistate noise
radar will be presented. The recent development in noise radars is focus on MIMO
concept to increase the angular resolution and the sensitivity of noise radars. Some
examples of noise radar demonstrator will be also presented, starting from simple
monostatic ones via sophisticated designs of noise interferometric and synthetic
aperture radars ending on MIMO demonstrators. The presentation will be focused
on modern MIMO radars using noise and noise-like waveform to increase the radar
sensitivity and its functionality. The presentation will highlight the concept of MIMO
radars, shows different waveforms used in such systems and finally shows how to
design noise waveforms for MIMO radar

Programme

Organisers:
Marina Gashinova, University of Birmingham, UK
Alexander Myakinkov, Nizhny Novgorod State Technical University, Russia
Research in Forward Scatter Radar (FSR) has proven the concept’s high efficiency
for the detection of ‘difficult’ targets in complex environments.
Currently interest in FSR is increasing, firstly because of the introduction of ‘stealth’
targets and small low flying aircraft, secondly for its capability to provide main
radar missions using passive coherent location (PCL) potentially forming a low cost,
self-sustaining multi-channel/multistatic radar network.
This workshop will focus on the key capabilities of FSR, such as detection, target
motion parameter estimation, tracking and imaging. FSR is proposed as a potential
solution to provide flexibility of counter-measures to emerging threats in a modern
world, including the development of deployable low cost sensor networks, re-use
of existing communication systems and over-the-horizon operation, as well as
discussion of the issues associated with FSR.
The workshop will start with an overview of FSR (Prof. M. Cherniakov, UK),
discussing current trends and challenges. Introduction into the Forward Scatter
Mode of passive radar will be given by Prof. P. Lombardo (Italy). The next topic will
be dedicated to ground and maritime for surface target detection and classification
(Dr. M. Gashinova, UK). Finally the practical issues of air target detection and
tracking in FSR will be analysed in detail by Prof. A. Myakinkov (Russia). All
presenters have a long-standing experience of cooperation with industry.

The Social and Societal Implications of Autonomous Driving
Programme
Organisers:
Holger H. Meinel, Daimler AG, Germany
Katharina Kilian-Yasin, University of Pforzheim, Germany
Autonomous Driving is not only a technical, but also and especially in the future
a social and societal subject - on one hand it is an old dream of mankind - on the
other hand it takes control out of the hand of the driver, giving it on to a machine. If
this societal situation and its very specific implications are not cleared entirely and
positively, there will never be a market for autonomous driving anywhere in this
world! This is quite a challenge we jointly have to overcome to make things happen.
Bringing together technical and social researchers, as well as people being able to
distinguish and analyze the variance of acceptance in very different societies, the
BRIC-States for instance, we are going to discuss and analyze this subject.

Programme
Organisers:

Abstract
This Short Course is devoted to the passive radar sensor, which over the last five
years has moved from an “emerging technology” to a mature sensor that is ready
to be deployed in the field to fulfil the requirements of a range of surveillance
applications. Whilst the progress in passive radar has largely been facilitated by
the impressive increase in real-time signal processing capabilities, a significant
technology enabler has come in the evolution of adaptive signal processing
techniques, which permit superior effectiveness, reliability and agility. Special
attention is devoted, in this course, to those applications which have gained
a very wide scope and which are largely combined with advanced processing
techniques. Therefore, the capability to cope with large amounts of data, perform
long integration times, and adaptively cancel clutter and interferences are among
the core aspects of realising passive radar surveillance. These features, in addition
to several other advanced topics, will form the basis of the short course, which
will also identify and discuss current relevant-technology trends. Specific attention
will be given to air traffic surveillance applications with the combined use of
multiband sensors, as well as applications for maritime situational awareness
(MSA), which has potential for continuous coastal radar coverage. In certain
operational environments, exploitation of forward scatter can enhance detection
of low-observable targets. Furthermore, short-range applications have specific
peculiarities for both air and surface target detection and classification that are
presented in a unified frame that includes detection, cross-range profiling and
multi-sensor operation.
The short course will cover the topic of tracking air and surface targets of
interests. Both 2D and 3D tracking techniques will be presented by leading
authorities. Additionally, advances in target identification will be shown. Finally,
Earth observation applications which exploit space-based sources of opportunity
complete a wide scope view of the present applications. These include the
capability to form passive synthetic aperture radar images usable for differential
interferometry applications, as well as the retrieval of environmental parameters of
surface vegetation and atmosphere from the passive radar measurements.

Pulse Generation for Radar Applications
In aerospace and defense, high flexibility for signal generation is
required. The most prominent application area is radar, with all
its various test cases for the different types. The need for signal
generation for these applications is necessary throughout the
entire development cycle, from simple component testing up
to more complex emitter testing together with receivers. These
applications mainly address all types of pulsed signals, from simple
CW pulses to complex concatenation of vector modulated pulses.
In this session, the major requirements for testing are presented
together with real-life example scenarios.
The following topics are covered:
• Setup of simple pulses, pulse trains and emitter signals of radar
systems
• Scenario emulation with integrated antenna patterns and
antenna scans
• Typical modulation types, sequencing concepts and more
complicated setups of multiple emitters
• Automatic instrument configuration according to emulation
scenarios
• Analysis of generated pulse signals
Wednesday 8th October 15:30h – 16:30h
Fundamentals and Measurements of Radar
Waveforms
The all-weather capability and performance of radar sensors is an
important argument for their diverse application. Measurement
accuracy and resolution depend on the radar sensor and the
used waveform. Radars often apply pulse and pulse-compression
waveforms, continuous wave (CW) signals of high bandwidth in
combination with digital beamforming techniques to measure range,
radial velocity and azimuth angle unambiguously and in multi-target
situations. To ensure the high performance and reliability of these
sensors, dependable and fast test solutions are required.
This seminar explains basic radar signal processing of different
waveforms (e.g. pulse and pulse compression, continuous waveforms
such as chirp sequences, hopping waveforms) and indicates trends. It
also explains fully automated pulse and CW signal analysis solutions
for research, development and production of radars to verify radar
key performance indicators.
The following topics are covered:
• Fundamentals of pulse and CW radar waveforms
• Measurement needs
• Fully automated measurement of pulse parameters such
as width, rise/fall times, PRI, pulse-to-pulse measurements,
trending
• Measurement of FMCW signals, chirp deviation, chirp linearity

Group Delay Measurements Using
Wideband Multicarrier Signals for Satellite
Communications
Configurable Signal Conditioning for Network
Analyzers – Getting a Complete (T/R) Module
Characterization with a Single Connection
A demodulation bandwidth of 500 MHz makes today’s high-end
signal and spectrum analyzers a powerful tool for wideband
applications. One example is the measurement of group delay
utilizing a multicarrier CW signal for calibration and group delay
measurements. Group delay is a critical specification, for example
in satellite communications terminals. The necessary option now
enables engineers and technicians to perform this measurement
easily with minimal external hardware and calibration steps, using
a spectrum analyzer instead of a vector network analyzer for a 500
MHz channel.
Amplifiers and, in particular, composed devices such as receivers,
transceivers and T/R modules require a large number of test
parameters and different test setups for a complete characterization:
Typically (conversion) gain measurements require the handling of
very low and/or very high stimulation and response power levels.
Intermodulation testing and the unique Rohde & Schwarz solution
for group delay measurements on embedded LO converters are
based on two-tone stimulation. Finally, pre-amplification is
typically conditional for noise figure evaluation, etc.
Reconnecting the device under test and reconfiguring the test setup
is error prone, time consuming, and requires frequent recalibration.
On the other hand, the test system should be optimally adapted to
the needs of every single test, to ensure the desired performance
and to save costs.
This workshop presents solutions for T/R module tests based
on the R&S®ZVA network analyzer. This instrument allows
extensive characterization even of demanding active devices
– and on a single connection. The equipment can be tailored
to individual requirements, and components such as internal
combiner or pulse modulators can be fitted as separate options as
desired and controlled during the test sequences. The R&S®ZVA
network analyzer is a flexible, robust and powerful system for
testing amplifiers and T/R modules – single-connection device
characterization (SCDC) at its best.
The following topics are covered:
•Principle of multicarrier group delay measurement for
characterizing transmission path quality
• Calibration techniques
• Group delay measurements on frequency-converting devices
Thursday 9th October 9:45h – 10:30h
Easy and Precise Phase Noise Measurement
Using Advanced Spectrum Analyzers
In this session, the fundamental concepts and ideas of measuring
phase noise parameters on a wide range of devices under test
(VCXO, OCXO, etc.) will be introduced and demonstrated using a
state-of-the-art signal and spectrum analyzer in combination with
the dedicated phase noise measurement application.
The combination of an analyzer with a very good internal
reference signal source, high-performance analog-to-digital
converters and signal processing, and sophisticated algorithms
generates a measurement tool for all needs of modern phase noise
measurement.
The following topics are covered:
• Fundamental concepts of RF and digital processing concerning
phase noise
• All results at a glance – state-of-the-art user interfaces
• Special phase noise measurement functions – spot noise,
residuals, spurs, limits
• Digital PLL, monitoring and tracking fast-drifting devices
Thursday 9th October 14:00h – 15:00h
Challenges in Millimeter-Wave Measurements
Measurements at millimeter-wave frequencies are more demanding
than at microwave frequencies. Besides the system error correction,
active device characterization requires a precise power calibration,
which is a challenge especially for on-wafer testing. R&S®ZVA
vector network analyzers combined with Rohde & Schwarz
millimeter-wave converters are able to handle such applications
and ensure e.g. a precise power calibration in the wafer plane. As
a result, compression measurements, common in the coaxial world,
can be performed at millimeter-wave frequencies. The workshop will
give an overview of the current status of millimeter-wave solutions,
focusing on active device characterization and on-wafer calibration.
Thursday 9th October 15:30h – 16:30h
Calibrating and Verifying Network
Analyzers – How to Achieve Reliable
Measurement Results
Insight into Nonlinear Device Characterization
– from Modeling and Waveform Engineering
to Active Harmonic Load Pull Systems
– in cooperation with
For many users, calibration (to be more precise: system error
correction) of network analyzers is a mystery. Selecting the
optimal calibration method requires deep insight, and defining
the calibration kit and doing the calibration are always potential
sources of error. And after calibration, the question users are faced
with is: What degree of accuracy was actually achieved using the
current test parameters? The workshop describes some basics of
calibration as well as individual calibration methods, clarifies the
difference between calibration and verification, and presents a
solution for verifying the true accuracy of vector network analyzers
Increasing the efficiency of active components such as amplifiers
is becoming more and more important in today´s communications
systems. In order to achieve this, S-parameter characterization
has to be extended by nonlinear device characterization. Rohde &
Schwarz and Mesuro offer versatile systems for nonlinear device
characterization from X-parameter equivalent measurements
and waveform engineering to active harmonic load pull systems
based on the four-source models of the R&S®ZVA vector network
analyzer. This workshop will give an overview of the different
nonlinear solutions from Rohde & Schwarz and Mesuro.
