METAMATERIALS:Engheta & Ziolkowski or Rahmat-Samii & Yang Text Book

The document outlines the requirements and guidelines for a semester-long individual or group project on a topic related to radio frequency design, antennas, metamaterials, or related fields. Students must submit a 1-2 page project proposal by a deadline that describes the problem, preliminary table of contents, work plan, and references. The final report is due at the end of the semester and must follow an IEEE formatting style, include an abstract, introduction, technical descriptions, summary, and references. Several potential project topics are listed related to UWB, OFDM, MIMO, sensors networks, and spread spectrum systems.

TENTATIVE PROJECT ISSUES AND REQUIREMENTS


Every student (or group) is required to do an in-dept study on a selected topic that is within the scope of the course. This could be a survey study, or a research on a specific topic. If it is a survey study, a complete literature search, reading and understanding of these materials are required. The outcome of the project will be a well written publication quality document including all the references listed. For survey studies, a one paragraph summary of each paper that is cited is also required. The students will be asked to present their work at the end of the semester. By February 13th, each student (or group) should turn in one (or two) page description of their project with: A clear statement of the problem being addressed and the motivations for studying the problem; A preliminary table of content of your overall report; An itemized statement of work to be completed in the remaining time; 3-6 relevant references. Every project report should be approved by the instructor. This initial report will be used as part of the final grade, even though a final report is also required. At the end of the semester, a final and complete report is required. Also, students will be asked to present their stuff in class. The final report should follow one of the formatting styles in IEEE Transactions/Journal/Magazine/Letters. The paper should demonstrate in-depth understanding of the topic addressed and present key technical considerations in the issues involved. It must include an abstract describing your main work; An introduction describing the problem being addressed; In-depth technical descriptions including problem modeling and solutions, systems design considerations and trade offs, application range, and current implementation status and future work; Final summary; Reference citations. Note that the students are welcomed to pick the topics that they would like. However, the topic should be within the scope of this course (related to one of the topics that will be covered in the syllabus) and the instructors approval is required. Note that this is a course that is heavily project oriented. Students are required to do an excellent project. The instructor's expectation is extremely high from each project. Final report is due on the final day of classes. Please, submit the project proposal and the final report to the instructor via e-mail.
