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”. 14 www.eumweek.com 2014 EuMA Distinguished Service Award Vito Monaco received his received the Electrical Engineering Degree in 1957 from the University of Bologna and became Full Professor of Electronics in the Faculty of Engineering of the same university in 1973. The research, documented by more than 150 scientific publications, concern the electronics for telecommunications, in particular nonlinear microwave Professor Vito Monaco circuits, the computer aided design of electronic microwave circuits, characterization of compound transistors for RF and microwave, and the development of non-linear models. He has been working for more than 50 years in academia being closely connected and interacting with industry leaders in electronics for TLC (Telettra , S-T Microelectronics, Alenia, SIAE– Microelectronics, Thales Alenia Space–Italy, UMS, ASI, ESA) , with which he has signed major contracts for applied research. Prof. Monaco has led scientific research in his university serving as Director of the Institute of Electronics, later as a Member of the Academic Senate and the Board of Directors and more recently being Founding member and President of MEC-Microwave Electronics for Communications Ltd, a spin off of the University of Bologna and Ferrara. He has also shaped research at the national arena by serving as President of the Research Committee for Engineering and Architecture of CNR – Italian National Reseach Council and a Member of the Superior Technical Council of the Ministry of Communications. Prof. Monaco is founding member and in the period from 1990 to 2005 President of GAAS– Gallium Arsenide Application Symposium - Association for the promotion of research on compound semiconductor and microwave electronics in Europe. In 2006 the Association has changed the symposium name in EuMICEuropean Microwave Integrated Circuit Conference – an integral apart of the European Microwave Week . Prof. Monaco scientific achievements and service to the community has been recognized by numerous awards, among them Benemerito della Scienza e della Cultura, with a gold medal, awarded by the President of the Italian Republic in 1999 and Marconi Prize with gold medal for Research on CAD of microwave circuits, awarded in 1990 by the AEI-Italian Electrical and Electronics Association.

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. www.eumweek.com 33 MONDAY Aurelia Cecilia EuMIC06 Emerging and High-Performance Technologies: from Device Physics to MMICs EuMIC07 Active Tuneable Circuits and Oscillators EuMIC08 60-320 GHz Downconverters EuMIC06-01 Graphene Field Effect Transistors on SiC with T-Shaped Gate: Homogeneity and RF Performance EuMIC07-01 0.5-9 GHz CMOS Variable Gain Amplifier with Control Linearization, Low Phase Variations and SelfMatching EuMIC08-01 A Low Noise Fully Differential 60 GHz CMOS Active Down Converter with Resonating Current Bleeding 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. 42 www.eumweek.com 12:25h – 13:00h 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.

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. 18:05h - 18:15h EuMIC Awards Ceremony Chair: Marco Pasian, EuMW2014 Awards Chair EuMIC Prize EuMIC Young Engineer Prize GAAS Association Student Fellowships 18:15h - 18:20h Closing of EuMIC2014 Franco Giannini, EuMIC2014 Chair Invitation to EuMIC2015 Eric Kerhervé, EuMIC2015 Chair www.eumweek.com 45 TUESDAY Aurelia Cecilia Domizia EuMC07 Measurement of Permittivity and Permeability EuMC08 Wireless Systems and Applications EuMC09 Microwave Sensing EuMC07-01 Wideband Characterization of Dielectric Material by New Approaches Based on Near Field Microwave Microscopy EuMC08-01 How Do Traffic Signs Look Like in Radar?

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. www.eumweek.com 53 WEDNESDAY Giulia Hortensia EuMC26 Emerging Tuneable and Reconfigurable Devices and Systems EuMC27 Emerging Technologies and Novel Applications EuMC26-01 Characterization of Ferroelectric BST MIM Capacitors up to 65 GHz for a Compact Phase Shifter at 60 GHz EuMC27-01 Aerosol Jet Printing for 3D Multilayer Passive Microwave Circuitry Chair: Rolf Jacoby, TU Darmstadt Co-Chair: Amir Mortazawi, University of Michigan 11:20h - 11:40h R.

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.

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. FRIDAY D. Comite1, I. Catapano2, F. Soldovieri2, A.

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.

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.

Cabria, TTI Norte, Spain L. González, TTI Norte, Spain Paolo Colantonio, University of Rome Tor Vergata, Italy Francisco de Arriba, TTI Norte, Spain 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. 15:30h - 16:00h 16:00h - 16:40h Coffee Break 16:40h - 17:10h Radiation Hardness of GaN HEMTs Operating at Extreme Temperature Conditions E.

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

Haupt, Colorado School of Mines, USA 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.

Samanta, Milmega/AMETEK Ltd, UK Ali A. Rezazadeh, University of Manchester, UK John Papapolymerou, Georgia Tech, USA 09:50h - 10:40h QFN based Packaging Concepts for Millimeter-Wave Transceivers Thomas Zwick, Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT), Germany 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 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. Detecting Electromagnetic Waves with a Single Atom Sheet M.

Lager, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands 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.

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.

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).

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.

O’Hagan, Fraunhofer Institute, Germany Dominique Poullin, ONERA, France 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. 09:00h - 09:20h Welcome and Introduction to the Short Course Pierfrancesco Lombardo, University of Rome La Sapienza, Italy 09:20h - 10:00h Surveillance Trends - and the Role For Passive Radar Chris Baker, The Ohio State University, USA 10:00h - 10:40h Air Traffic Surveillance with Multiband PCL Daniel W.

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 WORKSHOPS AND SHORT COURSES Thursday 9th October 9:00h – 9:30h Thursday 9th October 12:30h – 13:30h 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.
