For many RF designers, the antenna is the most important device and its performance will determine the overall characteristics of systems. With the huge development of wireless communication systems and their applications in many domains, the evolution of the concept of the antenna, both in terms of usage and model, becomes necessary. This session will focus on the evolution of the antenna function, which increasingly integrates active elements, electronics, sensors and signal processing. These new capabilities are transforming the original passive antenna to signal processing antenna (SPA). Signal processing antennas combine a complex-antenna-structure, e.g., an array with signal-processing capabilities or controlled reconfigurable antenna system in order to enable adaptive and knowledge aided processing in space and time. By sensing the spatial and spectral properties of the electromagnetic environment SPAs can adaptively optimize the spatial and temporal signal processing operations in order to enhance system relevant performance metrics like the spectral efficiency in wireless communication systems, the probability of detection in radar or the enhancement of wireless security. Furthermore, limits of adaptive SPAs can be overcome by combining prior knowledge with measured data (knowledge-aided processing) and using novel approaches from automatic control theory.
