项目摘要

The objective of this research is to discover revolutionary origami-based electromagnetic components, radiofrequency circuits, and systems, that will transform the fields of communications, energy autonomy and sensing. This research is producing the first origami engineered systems with cognitive capabilities, that are exploitating numerous bands of the ambient radiation spectrum. The scientific objective of this work is to derive rigorous and integrated Mathematical-Computational-Electromagnetic models of origami geometries in order to study and develop novel foldable, energy autonomous and self-deployable electromagnetic systems with multi-band and folding-dependent operation. This comprehensive, fundamental study of origami foldable and self-deployable electromagnetic systems focuses on the development of advanced miniaturized, perpetual (that is, autonomous battery-less operation through energy harvesting and wireless power transfer) and reconfigurable electromagnetic systems for next generation communication, reconnaissance, sensing, as well as wireless power systems that support civilian and military applications.If successful, this work will benefit the fields of autonomous near-zero-power reconfigurable wireless telecommunications and sensing systems operating in harsh environments, such as disaster areas, structural health monitoring, Internet-of-Things, agricultural and water quality monitoring. Also, this work is expected to revolutionize airborne and wearable antennas, antenna arrays, resonators, harvesters, radiofrequency circuits and Wireless Sensor Networks realized in a variety of flexible materials with an easy to launch and carry miniaturized folded area. The project will also bring benefits to autonomous radio frequency devices with enhanced electromagnetic compatibility capabilities that can be integrated with biomedical implants and biosensors. This will enhance our national capabilities for disease prevention and real-time treatment as well as improving health and quality of life. The project's educational efforts are focused on broadening participation of underrepresented groups in science, technology, engineering and mathematics through curriculum development, undergraduate research experiences and outreach efforts. Broad dissemination of the project results will be accomplished through presentations to schools and the industrial community. This project is jointly funded by the National Science Foundation and the US Air Force Office of Scientific Research.

这项研究的目的是发现基于革命性的折纸电磁组件，射频电路和系统，这些组件将改变通信，能量自主权和传感的领域。这项研究正在生产具有认知能力的第一个折纸工程系统，这些系统利用了众多环境辐射光谱。这项工作的科学目标是为折纸几何形状的严格而综合的数学计算 - 电磁模型，以研究和开发具有多频带和折叠依赖性操作的新型可折叠，能量自主和自动驱动的电磁系统。这项对折纸可折叠和可自我部署的电磁系统的全面，基本研究的重点是开发高级微型，永久性的（即，通过能源收获和无线电力传输和无线电源传递和可重新配置的电气磁系统的无线电系统）的实施，以及对下一代通信，侦察性的无线电源，以及无效的机构的实现，并将无线电系统的运用效率，并在无线系统中进行，并支持无线电源。在恶劣的环境中运行的可自动启用无线电信和传感系统，例如灾害区域，结构性健康监测，遗产，农业和水质监测。此外，这项工作有望彻底改变机载和可穿戴的天线，天线阵列，谐振器，收割机，辐射电路和无线传感器网络，这些传感器网络在各种柔性材料中实现，易于启动并携带微型折叠区域。该项目还将为具有增强的电磁兼容功能的自主射频设备带来好处，这些功能可以与生物医学植入物和生物传感器集成在一起。这将增强我们的国家预防疾病和实时治疗能力，并改善健康和生活质量。该项目的教育努力集中在扩大通过课程开发，本科研究经验和外展工作的科学，技术，工程和数学中代表性不足的群体的参与。该项目结果的广泛传播将通过向学校和工业界的演讲来实现。该项目由国家科学基金会和美国空军科学研究办公室共同资助。
