Short description

Tenders are sought for the supply, delivery and installation of a millimetre-wave (mmWave) Performance Network Analyser (PNA) system.
The Advanced RF Technology (ART) group was established in 2020. ART’s researchers pursue cutting edge research in 5G/6G communications and other emerging areas where wireless technologies are critical such as internet-of-space (IoS), industry 4.0, smart cities etc. ART’s research is focused on RF front-end and antenna components from conceptualization and design; to manufacturing and RF testing.
Furthermore, ART’s research explores the potential of functional materials for the realization of tunable RF components and highly-miniaturized RF components. Specifically, the RF hardware and material elements of our research need to be characterized from DC to millimetre-wave frequencies under low power as well as under high RF power excitation.
