Maximizing the Gap Height in Gap-Waveguides with Helical Wires Operating at the Vicinity of Resonance
Walid Dyab, Mourad Ibrahim, Ahmed Sakr and Ke WuPublished in: IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques ( Volume: 71, Issue: 4, April 2023) DOI: 10.1109/TMTT.2022.3223082 Abstract: Gap-waveguides made of bed-of-nails are revisited with special interest given to the maximum practically achievable gap height. In the cases where the gap height is to be maximized, it is important to have […]

Lateral and Rotational Misalignment Tolerance in Separated Gap Waveguides made of Periodic Bed-of-Nails
Various forms of misalignment in separated gap waveguides made of periodic bed-of-nails are investigated numerically. Separated gap waveguides which are suitable for wireless power transfer applications are considered in this analysis. Two equivalent problems using perfect magnetic conductor boundaries are derived from the original problem with the periodic structure. The two equivalent problems are validated […]
Workshop: Additive Manufacturing of Electromagnetic Shields and Guiding Structures with UV 3D Printers
Wireless chargers for electric vehicles and mobile devices have become attractive for researchers all over the world. This is because wireless chargers totally abolish the hassle of long charging cables. For example, a parking lot with individual wireless chargers implemented at each parking spot is sought to be more sustainable than its counterpart that has […]

Dr. Mourad Ibrahim is the CE Finalist for PSU President Teaching Excellence Award
EMG would like to congratulate Dr. Mourad Ibrahim for being the CE finalist for PSU President Teaching Excellence Award for the academic year 2020-2021.
Radiation and Scattering from Bodies Coated with Metamaterials by GPU: Electromagnetic Forward and Inverse Scattering Problems by Graphical Processing Unit:
The electromagnetic scattering from bodies coated with metamaterials by using Finite Difference Frequency-Domain (FDFD). A formulation for the FDFD method is presented. A hybrid technique from FDFD and Particle Swarm Optimization technique (PSO) is used to reconstruct both the shape and the relative permittivity of a homogenous dielectric cylinder. The dielectric constants of materials in […]
