We're proud to share that researchers from the Antenna and Electromagnetics Group at QMUL have received a major international honour. Dr. Rostyslav Dubrovka and Prof. Stuart Gregson, working with Dr.-Ing. Marc Dirix from RWTH Aachen University, earned first place in the 2025 Best Technical Paper competition at the 47th Annual Meeting and Symposium of the Antenna Measurement Techniques Association in Tucson, Arizona.

Their paper introduces an innovative way to clean up unwanted reflections that often interfere with antenna measurements. Even the most advanced anechoic chambers can produce stray signals that affect accuracy. By applying the Generalised Vector Theorem for Spherical Waves, the team developed a method that filters out this interference with high precision, leading to clearer and more reliable test results.

The study combines strong theoretical work with an extensive set of numerical experiments, where the entire measurement setup was simulated for each data point. This provides a compelling demonstration of the method's impact.

This award further strengthens the international reputation of QMUL's Antenna and Electromagnetics Group, known for advancing both measurement science and fundamental research.
