It is p articularly beneficial when the surface real estate is a major challenge\, such as a CubeSat. A strategic integration not only reduces the developme nt cost\, promotes a robust communication link\, but also increases the mi ssion capacity by allowing more science instruments to be mounted on the C ubeSat.\n\nThis lecture covers different conformal antenna designs for sol ar panel integration\, from UHF to Ka band. It includes antennas integrate d under solar cells\, around solar cells\, and optically transparent anten nas integrated on top of solar cells. It also covers low gain and high gai n design. The high gain design mainly focuses on reflectarray antenna\, wh ich may be beneficial to those who wishes to study the subject.\n\nAs thes e antennas are integrated with solar panel\, a unique and complex subsyste m\, effects of solar cells on the antenna and vice versa need to be analyz ed and quantified. The lecture presents analysis of a typical space-certif ied solar cell\, extracted model\, experimental set-up to quantify the int eraction between solar cells and the integrated antennas.\n\nAbout Speaker :\n\nDr. Reyhan Baktur is an associate professor at the department of Elec trical and Computer Engineering (ECE)\, Utah State University (USU). Her r esearch interests include antennas and microwave engineering with a focus on antenna design for CubeSats\; optically transparent antennas\; multifun ctional integrated antennas\, sensors\, and microwave circuits.\n\nShe is affiliated with the Center for Space Engineering at USU\, the Space Dynami cs Laboratory (the university affiliated research center)\, and collaborat es with NASA Goddard Space Flight Center.\n\nDr. Baktur is an AdCom member of IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society\, and is active in US National C ommittee of the International Union of Radio Science\, serving as the vice chair for commission B\, and the inaugural chair for the Women in Radio S cience.\n\nShe is passionate and committed to electromagnetic education an d student recruiting by introducing CubeSat projects in undergraduate clas srooms. She is the recipient of the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society ’s (APS) the Donald G. Dudley Jr. Undergraduate Teaching Award in 2013 a nd has been actively serving IEEE APS student paper competition and studen t design contest.\n\nDr. Baktur’s lectures will focus on CubeSat Develop ment Basics\, Link Budget Analysis and Development\, Antenna Designs for C ubeSats and Small Satellites\, Transparent Antennas\, and Class Projects f or Electromagnetic Courses.\n\nSpeaker(s): Reyhan Baktur\, \n\nToronto\, O ntario\, Canada\, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/310574 LOCATION:Toronto\, Ontario\, Canada\, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.o rg/m/310574 ORGANIZER:pz.naseri@gmail.com SEQUENCE:5 SUMMARY:[AP-S Seminar Series] Integrated Solar-Pannel Antennas by Prof. Rey han Baktur URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/310574 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p><span style="font-size: 12pt\; font-family : arial\, helvetica\, sans-serif\;">Please join us for an upcoming talk on <strong>Apr 13\, 3-4 pm (Eastern Time)</strong> by Prof. Reyhan Baktur ti tled "Integrated Solar-Pannel Antennas\," as part of the 2021-2022 IEEE AP -S seminar series.</span></p>\n<p><span style="font-size: 12pt\; font-fami ly: arial\, helvetica\, sans-serif\;"><strong>Abstract:</strong>&nbsp\;</s pan></p>\n<p><span style="font-size: 12pt\; font-family: arial\, helvetica \, sans-serif\;">Conformal Integration of antennas with solar panels has w ide applications\, from small spacecraft\, Mars rovers\, to self-powered w ireless sensors.
