SPS16 – Transmit and Reflect Array Design and Measurement Methods in the mmW and THz Range
The aim is to set up a session grouping papers on the design of agile radiating surfaces in transmission or reflection modes, for near-field applications (focusing, imaging, etc.) or far-field applications (beam-forming for telecommunications and radars) in very high frequency ranges. The characterization aspect and associated test benches will also be highlighted, as they represent a major challenge at these frequencies.

Notes
- A special session is expected to have 5 papers (half-day special session) or 10 papers (full-day special session). If more papers are received, the committee will consider splitting the session into different parts.
- All abstracts must be submitted by June 30, 2023, and should conform to the same specifications as regular papers.
- All organizers and speakers are required to register for the conference with corresponding registration fees.
- The special sessions may be canceled or combined with other sessions of similar topics should there be an insufficient number of speakers.
