Candidate Name: Daniel Kelley
Degree: Master’s
Defense Date: Thursday, November 6th, 2025
Time: 1 - 3 p.m.
Location: Perry 115

Committee:

  • Advisor: Hualiang Zhang, Professor, Electrical & Computer Engineering, University of Massachusetts Lowell

Brief Abstract:
Design and fabrication of an additively manufactured dielectric resonator reflectarray antennas. With the advent of satellite mega-constellations, there is an evolving demand for antennas capable of supporting high bandwidth mesh networking subsystems in space. A 3D printed dielectric resonator reflectarray antenna operational within w-band is presented as a potential solution for the mass production of high gain, low cost, low weight reflectarray antennas in support of spaceborne systems.
