An Origami Inspired Reconfigurable Spiral Antenna
Modern day systems often require reconfigurability in the operating parameters of the transmit and receive antennas, such as the resonant frequency, radiation pattern, impedance, or polarization. In this work a novel approach to antenna reconfigurability is presented by integrating antennas with the ancient art of origami. The proposed antenna consists of an inkjet printed center-fed spiral ant...
متن کاملA three-dimensional actuated origami-inspired transformable metamaterial with multiple degrees of freedom
Reconfigurable devices, whose shape can be drastically altered, are central to expandable shelters, deployable space structures, reversible encapsulation systems and medical tools and robots. All these applications require structures whose shape can be actively controlled, both for deployment and to conform to the surrounding environment. While most current reconfigurable designs are applicatio...
متن کاملAn Efficient Metamaterial- Inspired Electrically-small Antenna
This article presents an inexpensive, efficient, and electrically-small antenna design that is based on a metamaterial-inspired structure driven by an electrically-small semi-circular loop antenna, which is coaxially-fed through a finite ground plane. The proposed antenna system is linearly scalable over a wide frequency spectrum. The design details and radiation characteristics of the antenna ...
متن کاملTransforming architectures inspired by origami.
Paper folding is found across cultures for both aesthetic and functional purposes, with its most widely recognized exponent being the ancient art form of origami. More recently, there has been an upsurge of interest for translating origami designs into mathematics, natural sciences, engineering, and architecture. Across these different fields, origami is becoming a fountain of inspiration for n...
متن کاملOrigami-inspired deployable auxetic metamaterials
Developing complex spatial objects from a fl at sheet of material using origami folding techniques has long attractedattention in science and engineering. Recent research has shown that in origami-based deployable folded sheetmaterials, such as Miura-ori, metamaterial properties of the patterns are basically because of their folding geom-etry [1, 2]. In this study, we employ tai...
