Topic: Space: A new fertile potential for AI
Abstract
Space vehicles and networks are evolving at an unprecedented rate in history. The era
of Mega satellite constellations, massive connectivity, cheap access to space via
reusable launch vehicles, plans to land humans to the moon as well as considering
human landing on mars is already in the work. Intelligent, reconfigurable and adaptive
networks and computing systems are key in adjusting mission links, decisions and
more.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the new paradigm that is being integrated with various
technologies to make things cheaper with smarter decision-making capabilities. AI relies on high end computing platforms that suffer from high energy consumption. This talk will present several new dimensions where AI might be a candidate to help in future Space applications with a focus on some of the latest Blue Origin contributions to space, in addition to some of the collaborative work with NASA on future Lunar missions.

Bio
Mohammad S. Sharawi is currently a Principal Engineer at Blue Origin, LLC, where he
is leading the development of antenna and radio-frequency (RF) systems for space
applications. He is also an affiliate Full-Professor of Electrical Engineering at the
University of Washington, Seattle, USA. He has been developing antenna solutions for
4G, 5G and sub-THz applications (from bio-sensors, to base station and satellite arrays) during his 20 years tenure as a Professor of Electrical Engineering at various institutions around the world since 2006. He joined the Space Industry early 2023.
He has 28 granted antenna related patents with the USPO, and more than 430
Publications in refereed journals and international conferences in addition to 3 Books in the field. He has major contributions in MIMO antenna systems, active reconfigurable antennas, mm-wave antenna arrays and encapsulated dielectric resonator antennas (DRAs).
