Dr. Volakis’ research is in electromagnetics, antennas and phased array, RF transceivers, textile electronics, millimeter waves and terahertz, EMI/EMC, radar scattering, and computational methods. His research team has introduced and/or developed 1) hybrid finite methods for microwave engineering, now defacto methods in commercial RF design packages, 2) textile surfaces for wearable electronics and sensors, 3) extremely thin, flexible and wideband conformal antennas and arrays with >30:1 of contiguous bandwidth, 4) novel composite materials for antenna & sensor miniaturization, 5) battery-less and wireless medical implants for non-invasive brain signal collection, 6) diffraction coefficients for material coated edges, and 7) model-scaled radar scattering verification methods.
