Wed 13 Mar 2024 13:00 - 15:00	Seminar: Antennas in Advanced Applications: Horizon watching with a 50-year perspective Centre for Electronics Please view the recorded event Seminar Summary Which areas in antennas will have a significant impact in 50-years' time? For that matter what was happening 50-years ago that influences what we do today? Although sometimes considered a niche technology, antennas are now ubiquitous and a key part of wireless technologies. Increased emphasis on, for example, energy efficiency, environmental sustainability and spectrum utilization makes their design even more important. In some ways antenna...
