Optical phased arrays (OPAs) and beam steering technologies represent a transformative approach in photonic systems, offering rapid and reliable control of light propagation without reliance on ...

Phased array antenna systems are at the cusp of ubiquity. We now see Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) antenna systems on WiFi routers. Soon phased array weather radar systems will help to predict ...

In three recent papers, engineers report the first demonstration of optical phased array technology on-chip at both near infrared and blue wavelength with applications in a broad range of research ...

Researchers from the Technical University of Denmark have developed a way to make a chip that focuses on LiDAR for beam steering smaller and more affordable for its multiple uses in different ...

WASHINGTON — Researchers have developed a new chip-based beam steering technology that provides a promising route to small, cost-effective and high-performance lidar (or light detection and ranging) ...

5G New Radio (5GNR) will rely heavily on beam steering to maximize data throughput, especially when used to send and receive millimeter-wave (mmWave) frequencies. Starting at about 24 GHz, mmWave ...

Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are a critical component of both digital and hybrid phased array technology. Powering FPGAs for aerospace and defense applications comes with its own set of ...

Researchers in Denmark have developed a new chip-based beam steering technology that, they say, provides a promising route to small, cost-effective and high-performance lidar. “Optical beam steering ...
