3D printed antenna with dielectric lens for free-space material characterization method
Horník, Milan ; Láčík, Jaroslav (referee) ; Kaděra, Petr (advisor)
This bachelor´s thesis deals with the free space setup for material permittivity characterization. The workplace includes two horn antennas, two dielectric lenses and sample holder. The work deals with the characteristic properties of materials such as permittivity and permeability. Further, the methods used to determine permittivity are discussed. The next part of the work is focused on a theoretical analysis of the design of a broadband horn antenna with a dielectric lens. The chapter 3D printing and surface treatment deals with the issue of 3D printing and the possibility of applying a conductive layer on the plastic components. The following section presents the calculated and simulated results performed in CST Microwave Studio. In the next chapter, mechanical construction and measurement setup fabrication are discussed. In the end, the achieved results are evaluated.

New town hall for the district Brno-North
Kaděra, Petr ; Vágner, Lukáš (referee) ; Jura, Pavel (advisor)
This Master's thesis project decribes the new town hall for the district of Brno-north. The proposal is based on an idea of an intersection of two elementary solids. The room layout is similar to the concept and is divided into a part for state administration and a part for self-government. The building also consists of a conference hall and a cafe in which the cultural events can take place. The architecture solution is barrierless with regard to the principles of sustainable development.

LABORARTORY BRNO
Kaděra, Petr ; Kadlčík, Petr (referee) ; Wahla, Ivan (advisor)
The object of the bachelor thesis was an architectural design of a gallery of architecture, design and contemporary art situated in Brno. The main idea was to build two independent buildings - the gallery and the office building. The shape of the gallery consists of two annexes which collide in central glass prism and the office building finishing the important view city axis. The result is an concept of modern buildings which do not distort the local scale.

Horn antenna with suppressed side-lobe radiation
Kaděra, Petr ; Puskely, Jan (referee) ; Mikulášek, Tomáš (advisor)
This master´s thesis is focused on the ways of possible realisation of the directive horn antenna with suppressed side lobes in the frequency bands 71-76 GHz and 81-86 GHz. In this thesis a detailed research of the feasible options including parameters comparison and assessment of pros and cons of the particular solutions has been performed. Among the specified technical requirements, the emphasis has been placed on the manufacturing options and low cost availability of the materials applicable for the given antenna. The main part of the thesis deals with the conical horn antenna loaded with a hyperbolic dielectric lens, further the antenna with flat dielectric lens based on a transmitarray and also the integrated elliptical lens antenna. The following part of the thesis deals with the possibilities of characterizing the properties of the dielectric material of the lens.

3D printed circularly polarized patch antenna
Drápal, Jakub ; Kaděra, Petr (referee) ; Láčík, Jaroslav (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with circularly polarized patch antennas. In this work, circular polarization is achieved by inhomogenous substrate. The first part summarizes the basic theoretical knowledge about the patch antennas, the shapes of the patch antennas, the excitation methods and the generation of circular polarization. In the next section, the design of a circularly polarized patch antenna on an inhomogeneous substrate is described, and several antenna concepts are proposed and compared with each other and with a conventional antenna. The effect of shaping the inclusions and their gradation in the substrate and the insertion of the inclusions around the centre conductor in the substrate is investigated. The last section is devoted to the realization of the designed antennas by 3D printing method and comparison of simulations from ANSYS HFSS software with measurements of the antennas.

3D PRINTED ARTIFICIAL MATERIALS FOR MICROWAVE STRUCTURES
Kaděra, Petr ; Soh, Ping Jack (referee) ; Polívka, Milan (referee) ; Láčík, Jaroslav (advisor)
Tato dizertační práce se zabývá výzkumem 3D tištěných umělých elektromagnetických struktur pro návrh antén a mikrovlnných obvodů. Umělé struktury obsahující dielektrické i vodivé příměsi s různými geometrickými tvary jsou zkoumány a jejich přesný popis, včetně zahrnutí vlivu anizotropie, může zlepšit stávající přesnost a rychlost návrhu. Prvně jsou srovnány modely založené na analytickém přístupu modelování kapacitorů s teorií efektivního media, numerickou simulací a naměřenými výsledky, které jsou poskytnuty pro rozličné parametry materiálů, jenž jsou dostupné v technologii 3D tisku. Navržené modely metodou kapacitorů mohou být obecně využity pro rychlejší a přesnější určení efektivní komplexní permitivity, což zvyšuje potenciál dané metody při využití optimalizačních technik. Jako druhá je využita metoda vícemódových přenosových matic, která poskytuje obecný a účinný způsob výpočtu efektivní permitivity a efektivní permeability umělých struktur obsahující jak dielektrické, tak i kovové inkluze, napříč objemovým prostorem zkoumané struktury. Umělé struktury obsahující kovové inkluze obecně umožňují dosahovat široký ladící rozsah efektivních konstitutivních parametrů. Následně jsou navrženy vhodné struktury s prostorovým rozložením permittivity pro širokoúhlé Luneburgovy čočky s gradientním indexem lomu v pásmu milimetrových vln využitelné jako antény nebo retro reflektory pro zlepšení širokoúhlového rozsahu pokrytí a stabilní efektivní odrazné plochy u pasivních bezčipových frekvenčně kódovaných radiofrekvenčně identifikovaných orientačních bodů, jenž mají velký potenciál pro využití sebe-lokalizace uvnitř budov.
