Linear random antenna arrays are usually studied in conjunction with uniform excitations
with, at most, a linear phase shift in order to steer the main beam. This offers some …

Random arrays have been typically studied by considering real uniform excitations. This is
suited for single-beam radiation patterns but does not allow for more sophisticated patterns …

We investigate the potential of using arbitrarily placed wireless transceivers to increase the
probability of maintaining a communication link in an electrically harsh environment …

This thesis presents a study for the problem of designing linear antenna arrays, as well as its
applications on the performance improvement of mobile communication systems. Besides …

Wireless communications are essential to emergency responders. Unfortunately, a typical
emergency response scenario involves communication into and within building structures …
