DESCRIPTION:There is a great demand for high data throughput\, innovative b
 eam steering antenna solutions for wireless and satellite communication ap
 plications. In the last decade\, beam steering antennas have seen tremendo
 us progress\, primarily due to the maturity of silicon beamforming chipset
 s\, multilayer printed circuit boards\, and 3D printing technologies. This
  talk will focus on the emerging flat panel phased array antennas used in 
 wireless and satellite communications. The presentation will delve into el
 ectronic beam steering through beam forming networks and commercially avai
 lable beam forming integrated circuit (BFIC) chips. Examples of X-/Ku-/Ka-
 band flat panel phased array antennas featuring dual linear\, dual circula
 r\, and polarization reconfigurable designs will be showcased. The challen
 ges and roles of silicon BFICs\, multilayered printed circuit board (PCB) 
 fabrication\, RF component assembly\, beam forming algorithms\, and 3D die
 lectric and metal printing in antenna array designs will be explored durin
 g these discussions. The talk will emphasize the importance of data throug
 hput testing of Ka-band flat panel phased array antennas in a laboratory e
 nvironment and over-the-air (OTA) testing across a 1 km link between two S
 an Diego State University buildings. It will also cover data throughput te
 sting of a dual circular polarized Ka-band flat panel phased array on a pa
 yload over a 100\,000 ft Aerostar balloon. The speaker will conclude with 
 insights on the future evolution of beam steering technology.\n\nSpeaker(s
