In the past, antenna engineering relied on customizing existing antenna structures to meet requirements, and in the process acquire experience and intuition to propose new structures that further expand the library of proven antenna designs. Although spectacular advancements in computational electromagnetics and computational power over the past decade have help to shorten the design cycle, the heavy use of numerical optimization tools also tends to diminish the important roles of creativity, insights, and experience in synthesizing new antenna structures. In this context, the Theory of Characteristic Modes (TCM) perfectly interconnects modern computational electromagnetics with the creativity, insights, and experience of traditional antenna engineering. By extracting the inherent radiation properties of a structure, TCM allows for optimal antennas to be designed in a manner which is faster and superior to current complex antenna optimization algorithms. TCM performs analysis on an arbitrary structure by solving a generalized eigenvalue equation derived from the Method of Moments (MoM) impedance matrix. This equation results in all the unique sets of currents (characteristic currents) and resonant characteristics (eigenvalues) of which the structure supports. These characteristic attributes can then be analyzed to design optimal antennas which meet a specific set of performance goals. These attributes allow new antenna engineers with little prior experience to follow a systematic, and intelligent design approach, rather than a relying on optimization algorithms or traditional brute force methods. The characteristic modes of a structure not only facilitate insights into the resonant frequencies of a structure and where to feed these resonances, but also how to adapt a structure to support new resonances at a predetermined frequency, or combine multiple resonances to support wider band operation. This short course will illustrate how to use characteristic modes to design many standard and complex antenna structures, showing how insights can be derived and common antenna knowledge can be used to design applications specific antennas. The attendees of this course will not only receive a basic overview of how to use TCM in many commercial EM suites (FEKO, CST), but will also receive Matlab scripts so that the attendees can utilize CMs after the completion of this course if they do not have access to any of these commercial software suites. SC-Q2: Mindfulness Practices for Engineers and Scientists By: Keith W. Whites Wednesday, June 29, 15:00 - 17:00 Location: Poinsettia C Mindfulness practices have been shown scientifically to support improved concentration, help with handling stress, and increase personal happiness, among other benefits. Major companies such as Google, Microsoft, Ford Motor Company, Twitter, Nike, Pixar, and dozens more are finding that mindfulness programs in their companies are enhancing employee focus, clarity, and performance. In this short course, practical mindfulness practices especially geared towards engineers and scientists will be introduced that can be used virtually anywhere: from the hustle and bustle of the workplace to the quiet of your home. No previous mindfulness or meditation experience is expected or needed. Half Day (Morning) SC-H10: Ultra-broadband Terahertz Communications By: Josep Miquel Jornet Friday, July 1, 08:00 - 12:00 Location: Vieques B Wireless data traffic has grown exponentially in recent years due to a change in the way today’s society creates, shares and consumes information. This change has been accompanied by an increasing demand for higher speed wireless communications, anywhere, anytime. Wireless Terabit-persecond (Tbps) links are expected to become a reality within the next ten years. In this context, Terahertz (THz)-band (0.1-10 THz) communication is envisioned as a key wireless technology of the next decade. The THz band will help overcome the spectrum scarcity problems and capacity limitations of current wireless networks, by providing an unprecedentedly large bandwidth. In addition, THz-band communication will enable a plethora of long-awaited applications, both at the nanoscale and at the macro-scale, ranging from wireless massive-core computing architectures and instantaneous data transfer among non-invasive nano-devices, to ultra-high-definition content streaming among mobile devices and wireless high-bandwidth secure communications. In this course, an in-depth view of THz-band communications will be provided. First, the state of the art and open challenges in the design and development of THz-band devices will be presented. 12 In particular, the limitations and possible solutions in the design of high-speed THz-band transceivers, broadband antennas and dynamic antenna arrays will be described. A special emphasis will be given to the utilization of novel materials, such as graphene, to develop compact solid-state devices for THz communications. Then, the current progress and open research directions in terms of THzband channel modeling will be presented. The main phenomena affecting the propagation of THz signals will be explained and their impact on the channel capacity will be assessed. Finally, new modulation techniques tailored to the THz-band channel as well as novel transmissions schemes such as ultra-massive multipleinput multiple-output will be presented. This course will provide the audience with the necessary knowledge to work in a cuttingedge research field, at the intersection of nanotechnologies, antennas and propagation, and information and communication technologies. SC-H11: Ultra Wideband Phased Arrays and Transceivers By: John L. Volakis Friday, July 1, 08:00 - 12:00 Location: Icaco A Wide band antennas and arrays are essential for high resolution imaging, cognitive sensing, high data rate communication links, multi-waveform, and multi-function frontends for holistic spectrum utilization and secure communications. With wireless data traffic expected to grow more than 40% annually in the foreseeable future, wideband RF front ends will be play an essential role in the years to come. However, there is a longstanding difficulty in realizing small and conformal aperture version of these arrays. But recent miniaturization techniques, bandwidth enhancements and establishment of theoretical limits, feed technology, digital beam forming transceivers and post-processing algorithms have led to a new class of conformal antennas and tight-coupled arrays that can operate from UHF to millimeter wave frequencies. This short course will cover RF front-ends from the array aperture to transceivers and digital processors to realize ultra wide band communications with channel coding for spread spectrum communications. The course will cover: 1) theory and realization of ultra wideband conformal arrays with as much as 14:1 bandwidths, 2) theoretical bandwidth limits versus array thickness, 3) ultra wideband balanced feeds, 3) material and superstrates for optimal array design, 4) beam forming techniques at near grazing angles, 5) reconfiguration methods for bandwidth rejection and passband control, 6) low power and low cost digital beam formers via on-site coding, and 7) reduced hardware back-ends. •Fundamental Limits and Design Guidelines for Ultra-Wideband Antennas •Array Miniaturization via Slow Waves •Fundamental Bandwidth Limits for Metal-Backed Conformal Apertures •Review of Ultra Wideband Array Literature •Tightly Coupled Arrays: Operation and Realization for UHF to Millimeter Frequencies •Ultra Wideband Balanced Feeds and Impedance Matching Across Large Bandwidths •Substrates, Superstrates and Frequency Selective Surface Additions for Beamforming and bandwidth enhancements. •Balun Feed Geometrical Reconfiguration for Array Bandwidth Control •On-Site Coding Transceivers for Reduced Hardware and Reduced Power Digital Beamforming •Error Evaluation of On-Site Coding from the Analog Front-End to the Digital Back-Ends. •Hardware Demonstration Examples •Future directions and application needs. SC-H13: Reflectarray Antennas: Theory, Designs, and Applications By: Payam Nayeri, Fan Yang, Atef Z. Elsherbeni Friday, July 1, 08:00 - 12:00 Location: Icaco B In recent years, reflectarrays have emerged as the new generation of high-gain antennas which have attracted an increasing interest in the antenna/electromagnetic community because of their lowprofile, low-mass, and low-cost features. The reflectarray antenna is a hybrid design, which combines the many favorable features of reflectors and printed arrays, and offers many notable advantages over these two classic high-gain antennas. The aim of this short course is to present a comprehensive overview of reflectarray system design and state-of-the-art technology. This short course will enable attendees to understand the basics of reflectarray systems, become familiar with reflectarray design, analysis techniques, and enabling technologies, and correctly apply this knowledge to designing reflectarrays for diversified applications. Based on the authors’ forthcoming book on reflectarray antennas, this short course is available in a half-day format (4 hours) presenting nearly 200 slides. SC-H7: Natural and Metamaterial Tilted-beam Antennas By: Hisamatsu Nakano Friday, July 1, 08:00 - 12:00 Location: Culebra A Techniques for realizing tilted-beam antennas for modern wireless communications systems have been receiving considerable attention. This short course presents recent progress in natural tiltedbeam antennas and metamaterial tilted-beam antennas, and is composed of three chapters. Chapter 1 describes the definition of natural and metamaterial antennas. Subsequently, the fundamental concepts behind realizing a tilted beam are explained. Chapter 2 summarizes the analysis methods for tilted-beam antennas. 13 Chapter 3 presents representative tilted-beam antennas, including (1) inverted F antennas with an electromagnetic-band-gap (EBG) reflector, (2) a reconfigurable bent two-leaf (BeToL) antenna and a reconfigurable four-leaf (BeFoL) antenna, (3) an eight-beam reconfigurable antenna composed of a fed patch and parasitic T elements, (4) a patch antenna with Fabry-Perot resonant plates for single and double tilted beams, (5) metaline antennas, (6) metaspiral antennas, (7) an external-excitation spiral antenna, (8) a cavity-fed spiral array antenna and a cavity-fed helical array antenna, both with extremely high aperture efficiency, and (9) C-loop grid array antennas. Note that antennas (1) through (4) are linearly polarized, and antennas (5) and (9) are circularlypolarized, with all antennas having a small antenna height above the ground plane (low-profile structure). SC-H8: Computational Techniques for Antenna Placement and RCS By: Martin Vogel Friday, July 1, 08:00 - 12:00 Location: Culebra B This course will present an overview of simulation methods that can be used to analyze antenna placement on, and radar cross section of, a large platform, such as a ship, a vehicle or an aircraft. The techniques will include rigorous, asymptotic and hybrid methods. For a couple of practical examples of antenna placement on and Radar Cross Section of a Navy ship, the frequency will be varied over a wide range, and you will learn which methods are to be preferred when and why. An additional example will involve the challenging problem of RCS analysis of an aircraft with engine inlets that include fans. Finally, the technique of pinpointing scattering centers with Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) simulation will be presented with another practical example, a tank. SC-H9: Small Printed Antennas By: Albert Sabban Friday, July 1, 08:00 - 12:00 Location: Vieques A Communication, medical and cellular industry is in continuous growth in the last few years.

Thus, this short course title replaces “phased” with “timed” and concentrates on arrays designed for wide instantaneous bandwidth. Phase shifters produce beam squint and time domain dispersion for wideband signals. This short course explains a variety of issues related to antenna arrays in the time domain. Material for the course is based on the book Timed Arrays by Randy L. Haupt, Wiley-IEEE Press, 2015. SC-H6: Wearable Antennas By: Albert Sabban Thursday, June 30, 13:00 - 17:00 Location: Flamboyan A Communication, medical and cellular industry is in continuous growth in the last few years. Low profile compact antennas are crucial in the development of Wearable human systems. Several wearable antennas will be presented in the course. Design considerations, computational results and measured results on the human body of several compact wideband printed antennas with high efficiency will be presented in the course. Course Topics: •Microstrip wearable antennas •Loop wearable antennas •Helix wearable antennas •Antennas S11 Variation as Function of Distance from Body •Tunable antennas •Applications of wearable antennas SC-H14: Metamaterial Cloaking in Antenna Systems By: Filiberto Bilotti Friday, July 1, 13:00 - 17:00 Location: Culebra A The course aims at giving the basic principles of cloaking and electromagnetic invisibility. The main differences between cloaking and other common techniques used in microwave and radar technologies and based on radar absorbing materials and structure shaping (i.e. stealth aircrafts) are first remarked and carefully addressed. Then, the course will briefly present the main techniques recently presented in the literature to achieve electromagnetic invisibility: transformation electromagnetics, scattering cancellation, transmission-line cloaks, corrugated surfaces, etc. Proper figures of merit to describe the effectiveness of an invisibility cloak will be presented and discussed. A comprehensive comparison of the main cloaking techniques will be presented in order to show what is the best cloaking approach, depending on the application and the requested performances. The scattering cancellation approach to cloaking will be presented with further details and two typical implementations (i.e. plasmonic cloaks and mantle cloaks) will be discussed. Finally, possible applications of the scattering cancellation approach in antenna systems will be presented and discussed with the help of several examples (e.g. cloaking a metallic rod, reducing antenna blockage, cloaking a sensor, cloaking a halfwave dipole, reducing the mutual coupling and the mutual blockage effect between two antennas, etc.) The course is intended to be application-oriented. Therefore, most of the lengthy analytical formulation will only be summarized and properly replaced by the presentation and discussion of the basic physical concepts behind the operation of the cloaking devices. Course chapters •Definition and general concepts •Comparison between electromagnetic invisibility and other lowobservability techniques •Brief summary of the main techniques used to achieve electromagnetic invisibility •Figures of merit to describe the effectiveness of a cloaking device •Critical comparison among the different approaches to cloaking •Scattering cancellation: principles and design techniques •Scattering cancellation based on volumetric metamaterials (plasmonic cloaking) •Scattering cancellation based on metasurfaces (mantle cloaking) •Applications: cloaking passive objects (metallic or dielectric rods and general obstacles) •Applications: cloaking objects with some functionalities (sensors, antennas) •Applications: cloaking receiving antennas •Applications: mutual cloaking of closely packed antennas SC-H2: Surface EM in Antenna Engineering: From EBG to meta-surface and beyond By: Yahya Rahmat-Samii, Fan Yang Friday, July 1, 13:00 - 17:00 Location: Culebra B From frequency selective surfaces (FSS) to electromagnetic band-gap (EBG) ground planes, from impedance boundaries to Huygens meta-surfaces, novel electromagnetic surfaces have been emerging in both microwaves and optics. Many intriguing phenomena occur on these surfaces, and novel devices and applications have been proposed accordingly, which have created 15 an exciting paradigm in electromagnetics, so called “surface electromagnetics”. This short course will review the development of electromagnetic surfaces, as well as the state-of-the art concepts and designs. Detailed presentations will be provided on the unique electromagnetic features of EBG ground planes and advanced digital surfaces. Furthermore, a wealth of antenna examples will be presented to illustrate promising applications of the surface electromagnetics in antenna engineering. Full Day SC-F1: Base Station Antennas for Mobile Communications By: Claes Beckman Friday, July 1, 08:00 - 17:00 Location: Grand Caribbean Salon I This tutorial gives the participants a general overview of the application, implementation and design of current and future base station antennas for mobile communications from analog to 5G. It is aimed at microwave, RF- and antenna engineers in the wireless area, but also useful for researchers looking for relevant research topics and system engineers needing a deeper understanding of the antenna component of their system. The course explains underlying theoretical and practical implementation aspects of base station antennas in mobile communication networks of today and the future. The course is divided into four main parts: •System aspects, •BTS antenna design •Diversity and MIMO concepts. •The implementation of multiple antennas in 3GPP In the first part the fundamental parameters of a base station antenna are discussed in the context of radio network design. In particular we discuss parameters such as gain, radiation patterns, frequency bands and power handling and put them in the context of cell planning, propagation and capacity. In the second part a general overview of base station antenna design is given. In particular the design aspects of radiators, feed networks and reflectors are discussed. Furthermore, a general discussion of array synthesis for base station antennas is given. In the third part of the course we give an overview of the underlying theory of diversity and MIMO systems. In particular we discuss the requirements that these systems put on the base station antennas in order to be able to deliver the data rates expected from LTE and future 5G system. In the final part we then in detail look at the details of the implementation of multiple antennas in the various releases of the 3GPP standard. In particular we discuss the precoding matrix and how it is mapped on the various transmission modes. In conclusion we also discuss the various multiple antenna and massive MIMO concepts that has been developed within the European project METIS, which is supposed to lay out the foundations for the 5G standard to be deployed in around the year 2020. SC-F2: Advanced Preconditioning Techniques for Computational EM By: Francesco P. Andriulli, Eric Michielssen Friday, July 1, 08:00 - 17:00 Location: Grand Caribbean Salon II This course reviews the state of the art in effective preconditioning techniques for integral equations pertinent to the analysis of electromagnetic boundary value problems. The techniques covered permit the construction of rapidly convergent iterative solvers for electric and combined field integral equations and as such are a perfect complement to fast multipole and related accelerators. Applications of these techniques range from antenna analysis to the characterization of microwave devices and circuits, the analysis of electromagnetic compatibility phenomena, and the synthesis of metamaterials. The course will cover theoretical and practical issues related to the development and implementation of several preconditioners, including those that derive from Calderon identities. Moreover, the course will detail the incorporation of the presented techniques into integral equation codes and their interaction with fast matrix-vector multiplication schemes. SC-F3: Reflector Antenna Design and Analysis By: Peter Meincke Friday, July 1, 08:00 - 17:00 Location: Grand Caribbean Salon III The course gives an introduction to the design and analysis of single and dual reflector antennas, center-fed as well as offset. After a review of the analysis methods commonly employed for space- and Earth-station reflector antennas, the basic design principles are presented. First, single and dual spot-beam antennas are considered with the relation between size, feed illumination, directivity, and sidelobe level. Second, the influence of blockage by struts, subreflector, and feed is discussed. Third, the origin of cross polarization in offset designs is addressed and it is shown how to improve the polarization characteristics in dual reflector systems by employing the Mizuguchi compensation principle. Hands-on experience in reflector antenna design is obtained during the course by using the software package GRASP (participants must bring their own laptop). 16 Social Events Old San Juan “At Your Leisure” Shuttles APS 2016 is offering to each attendee the opportunity to visit Old San Juan.

Schmelz Universities Space Research Association Arecibo Observatory Deputy Director of the reflector. Tobacco farm land was eventually selected and construction began in 1961. Early discoveries include the 33-ms period pulsar in the Crab Nebula supernova remnant, the 59day rotation rate of Mercury, and the electron- ion-temperature difference in the ionosphere. Later discoveries included the first binary pulsar, first radar maps of Venus, first megamaser galaxy, first millisecond pulsar, and first extrasolar planet. High priority science investigations now include using pulsars to search for gravitational waves, characterizing near-Earth objects that threaten civilization, and heating the ionosphere to perform controlled plasma experiments. This talk will discuss 50 year of science at the Arecibo Observatory, from the early construction to the latest discoveries. The Arecibo Observatory is a multi-disciplinary facility that provides unique capabilities in astrophysical, planetary, and atmospheric sciences. The observatory is home to the world’s largest radio telescope, which is 1000 feet in diameter and covers an area of ~20 acres. The reflecting surface is made of ~40,000 perforated aluminum panels and is supported by a network of steel cables strung across the underlying terrain. The 900 ton platform is suspended 450 feet above the reflector on 18 cables, which are strung from three reinforced concrete towers. The Arecibo system operates from 50 - 10,000 MHz (600 - 3 cm). The telescope was originally built to investigate the ionosphere, but a site near the equator ensured that the radar could also be used to study nearby planets. The large limestone sinkholes in the Karst terrain south of Arecibo provided a natural geometry for the construction 30 Joan Schmelz works for Universities Space Research Association (USRA) and currently serves as the deputy director of the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico.

In addition to writing science papers for the Astrophysical Journal, she also writes regular posts for the Women in Astronomy BlogSpot on topics such as unconscious bias, stereotype threat, and the gender gap. Multiphysics and the Role of Commercial Simulators in Modern EM Graduate Education Thursday, June 30, 12:15 - 13:15, Grand Atlantic Salon II Chairs: George W. Hanson, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and Hao Xin, University of Arizona In addition, recent development in EM related R&D involves many aspects of Multiphysics simulation. For example, the dramatic increase in complicated materials and emphasis on nanostructures increases the need to understand material physics, non-trivial EM-material interactions, and quantum mechanics. Whether it be flexible antennas, microfludics, or nanostructures, increasingly exotic materials (natural or artificial / meta) are of interest, and the material response, often arising from semi-classical or quantum transport equations, becomes paramount. Students need to know a fair bit of solid-state physics and quantum mechanics to understand dynamic processes in these materials. Twodimensional materials and photonic topological insulators are prominent examples wherein the traditionally-trained EM graduate student is ill-equipped. In the past, EM graduate students generally needed to augment their engineering courses with math courses, although now it seems physics has emerged as the area requiring the most “extra” knowledge. It is not always clear how to guide graduate students in these areas (how much math, how much physics, is needed in a degree where course work is not the primary emphasis). Join us for a panel discussion regarding the role of commercial simulators and multiphysics training in engineering electromagnetics graduate education. Regarding the first aspect, does the advent of commercial simulators lessen the need to train graduate students to explicitly solve Maxwell’s equations (via, e.g., Green’s functions and integral equations, complex-plane analysis, home-generated FDTD or FEM codes, etc.)? Aside from explicitly training students to go into computational electromagnetics (CEM), to what extent should all graduate students understand CEM, and should this training be deep (develop their own codes for sophisticated problems for research use) or shallower (develop small codes for some simpler problems as class exercises). Modeling and simulation that used to take months or years of work can now be done in hours - to what extent should we focus on the answer, and to what extent should we focus on the path to the answer.
