Fr om 2014 to 2016\, he was a Senior Antenna Engineer at Remote Sensing Techn ologies\, Ankara\, Turkey. From 2021 to 2022\, he was a Visiting Scientist at the IETR Laboratory\, CNRS\, Rennes\, France. From 2021 to 2026\, he w as a Postdoctoral Fellow at Ghent University\, Ghent\, Belgium. His resear ch interests include the analysis and design of quasi-optical systems\, le aky-wave antennas\, near-field focusing techniques\, in-body and on-body c ommunication systems\, active\, reconfigurable\, and unconventional millim eter-wave and sub-terahertz phased arrays\, as well as electromagnetic mod eling and optimization of 2.5-D and 3-D RF packaging architectures.\n\nDr. Kapusuz received the URSI Young Scientist Award at the 2021 URSI General Assembly.\n\nAbstract:\n\nTitle: From Chip to System: A Holistic Approach to 2D Scalable Low-Loss D-Band Active Phased Array Realization\n\nThe rele ntless demand for multi-gigabit wireless communication and high-resolution sensing drives rapid innovation in D-band (110–170 GHz) systems. Howeve r\, realizing efficient and scalable active phased arrays at these frequen cies remains challenging due to high cost\, interconnect losses\, packagin g parasitics\, and heterogeneous integration constraints. This talk presen ts a holistic\, system-level approach to low-loss D-band phased array inte gration that unifies circuit\, antenna\, and packaging co-design. Leveragi ng both silicon-based (CMOS\, SiGe) and III–V integrated circuits\, the approach emphasizes optimized beamformer and power amplifier architectures combined with low-cost 2D scalable\, wide-angle scanning wideband antenna arrays implemented using low-cost PCB processes. Through electromagnetic co-optimization and advanced interconnect engineering\, the framework achi eves significant reduction in loss and improvement in overall system effic iency. Measured D-band results from prototype modules demonstrate wide-ang le beam steering and data transmission rates up to 100 Gb/s. These results confirm the feasibility of steerable\, high-capacity arrays suitable for both communication and sensing platforms.\n\nVirtual: https://events.vtool s.ieee.org/m/575792 LOCATION:Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/575792 ORGANIZER:sz@es.aau.dk SEQUENCE:37 SUMMARY:IEEE AP-S Young Professional Seminar by Prof. Kamil Yavuz Kapusuz URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/575792 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justi fy\;">Short Bio:</p>\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify\;">K amil Yavuz Kapusuz (Senior Member\, IEEE)&nbsp\;received the M.Sc. degree in Electrical Engineering from Atilim University\, Ankara\, Turkey\, in 20 13\, and the Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from the Electromagnet ics Group\, Department of Information Technology\, Ghent University\, Ghen t\, Belgium\, in 2021.</p>\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justif y\;">Since 2022\, he has been a Senior Researcher in Electromagnetics at I MEC\, Leuven\, Belgium\, and since 2026\, he has been a Professor at Ghent University\, Ghent\, Belgium.
