Design of MIWs typically relies on a multi-step process that involves computationally heavy simulations just to reach an initial, non-optimized geometry. This complexity represents a barrier-to-entry for the expanded use of MIWs. In this work, we introduce a MATLAB-based tool for the synthesis of MIW designs. The tool allows the user to input various geometric or circuit parameters for several types of MIWs (e.g., planar, axial, dual-layer). From these values, electrical characteristics, such as mutual coupling and self-inductance, are estimated and used to calculate the theoretical MIW transmission behavior over frequency. The behavior can then be optimized on-the-fly by adjusting the geometric or circuit parameters. Once the desired performance is achieved, the design parameters can be exported for further use, such as validation in a full-wave simulator. This process offers a significant reduction in design iteration cost in terms of both time and computation, offers increased insight that is not present in single simulation suites, and greatly reduces the obstacles for the expansion of MIW applications.","PeriodicalId":13090,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Antennas and Propagation Magazine","volume":"66 6","pages":"42-82"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142859038","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To facilitate this, we have developed ArrayEd, a system aimed at offering hands-on experience in constructing a beam-steering phased array, particularly tailored for students new to antenna design. ArrayEd incorporates pre-designed and modularized components crafted by the teaching team, allowing students to concentrate on designing the antenna elements and array configuration during implementation. By the end of the semester, over two-thirds of a class comprising 36 students successfully constructed operational phased arrays. Moreover, we introduced a whack-a-mole game utilizing ArrayEd, enabling students to assess and observe the performance of their phased arrays in transmission mode. The blinking LEDs on ArrayEd’s receivers serve to visualize essential radiation characteristics, such as main-beam direction, maximum gain, beamwidth, and sidelobe levels. Following the design, implementation, and examination of self-devised phased arrays with ArrayEd’s assistance, more than 85% of participants reported an enhanced comprehension of phased arrays, and all recommended the integration of ArrayEd into future antenna courses. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, ArrayEd is the first phased array designed for educational purposes that is realized with open-source components and validated in a real teaching scenario.","PeriodicalId":13090,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Antennas and Propagation Magazine","volume":"66 6","pages":"64-67"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142859120","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
