Title: Overview of W-band Gap Waveguide Circuit and System
Abstract: Four Substrate Integrated Gap Waveguide (SI-GWG) antenna arrays and four SI-GWG components are summarized in this overview paper. The SI-GWG antenna arrays are all implemented on the substrate to achieve a light weight design for such as small unmanned aerial vehicle application. The SI-GWG bandpass filter is implemented using the Micro- Electromechanical System (MEMS) technique. The SI-GWG microstrip transitions are introduced here for system integration between the antenna and the active chips. The SI-GWG packaging lid is designed by 3-D printing technique. Finally, the future development of the SI-GWG is given in the Conclusion.

Title: Development of Multimodal Flexible Sensors for Robotic E-Skin and Intelligent Perception System
Abstract: Robotic multimodal electronic skin (e-skin), emulating the sensory functions of human skin, is pivotal for enabling robots to interact with their environment akin to human perception. Firstly, we developed a multifunctional silk-based nanocomposite incorporating Ca2+, H+ and MXene for biomimetic hyper-attribute-gel e-skin with reversible gel-solid transition. This e-skin exhibits a wide range of skin-like physical-chemical properties, including stretchability, self-healing, and antibacterial activities, alongside multimodal sensory capabilities such as pressure, temperature, and humidity sensing, as well as function reconfigurability and evolvability. To decouple the sensing information from each modality in the multimodal sensor, we then proposed a skin-like structural design with a vertical high-low-modulus hierarchical configuration. This structure leads to deformation concentrating in the low-modulus pressure sensing part and thus enables pressure insensitivity of the thermistor. Besides, the bionic dual-state amplifying microstructure and contact resistance modulation endow the robotic e-skin with high sensitivity over a wide pressure range and excellent temperature insensitivity (91.2% reduction). With the developed multimodal sensors, we proposed a soft robotic perception system that integrates tactile e-skin, finger-bending sensors and an ultrasonic sensor. The perception system can achieve remote object positioning and multimodal cognition, which facilitates highly accurate object identification through deep-learning analytics. We envision that the development of multimodal flexible sensors represents a significant advancement in the area of robotic e-skin and intelligent perception system, promoting applications across robotics, prosthetics, and wearable technologies.

Title: Calculation and Analysis of Quantum Radar Scattering
Abstract: Quantum radar offers the prospect of detecting, identifying, and resolving RF stealth platforms and weapons systems, but the corresponding quantum radar cross section (QRCS) simulation is restricted-almost all existing methods can only be used for the two-dimensional (2-D) targets, not the 3-D targets even for convex targets. We propose a novel method that can deal with the calculation of the orthogonal projected area (A ⊥ ) of the target in each incidence, which is the key part of QRCS simulation for the arbitrary 3-D convex target. To the best of our knowledge, this has not been reported before. In this report, we introduce a three-step computation process of (A ⊥ ), and verified the method for typical 2-D targets. Finally, we show some results for typical 3-D convex targets and compared the QRCS with classical radar cross section (CRCS). Meanwhile, we analyze the superposition of quantum effect of side lobes which means a kind of novel quantum phenomena.
