The research group is active in the study, development, and testing of microwave and millimeter-wave antennas and sensors for space and terrestrial applications. Its activities include the design of innovative antennas, particularly leaky-wave antennas; the development of advanced electromagnetic methods for antennas based on periodic structures and for the analysis of scattering from natural surfaces (soil, vegetation, ocean); and the development of algorithms for the analysis and processing of satellite data, mainly acquired through Earth-observation missions.
