Seminar
3D printed antennas for space applications
Abstract
In the rapidly advancing field of space technology, the integration of 3D printing in the manufacturing of antennas offers innovative solutions to existing challenges. This talk will explore the development and application of 3D printed antennas for space missions, drawing on my personal academic journey and research experiences. I will begin with a brief introduction of myself, Rema Ahmid, detailing my educational background and the pivotal moments that led me to specialize in space antenna technology and why I have arrived to Taiwan. My journey began during my bachelor's studies at the University of Southern Denmark, where I conducted a project on assessing CubeSats as space-based radio antennas. This project involved the use of 3D printed feed horns and was under the supervision of Roman Gold. Following this, I pursued a master's thesis at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) and currently collaborating with IETR, Rennes, focusing on phased arrays for space applications utilizing 3D geometries and additive manufacturing. This work aimed to enhance antenna performance for GEO satellites through the development and testing of modular array architectures made using selective laser melting (SLM), a cutting-edge metal additive manufacturing technique. The thesis will contribute to the European Space Agency's MOSAIC project, emphasizing the experimental validation of these advanced antennas. Throughout the talk, I will elaborate on the technical aspects and findings from both my bachelor's and master's theses, highlighting the benefits and challenges of using 3D printing in antenna fabrication.
