description

Antennas help communicate the World. Antennas make possible that millions of people can watch the Champions League. Antennas allow the positioning of billions of vehicles around our planet. And they also allow handling vehicles through our neighbor planets. By propagating waves through antennas you can send huge amounts of data in milliseconds. Besides, you can also tell somebody that you love him or her. Antennas have allowed communicate the people in these places where cables cannot. But antennas are not only used for communication. Antennas can be used for heating food, for detecting people, for guiding vessels, for founding treasures, for monitoring breath, for harvesting energy and so forth. Everybody from everywhere in the world must to take advantage of these advances. In this sense, open platforms for promoting, sharing and discussing new issues and development on these topics are required. The Open Journal of Antennas and Propagation (OJAPr) is born with the aim of becoming a reference in this field. Scientist, academicians and technicians are encouraged to submit their new achievements to OJAPr. Theoretical analysis, numerical modeling or experimental measurements are warmly welcomed. We are interested in active, adaptive and array antennas, antennas’ characteristics (gain, efficiency, impedance ...), modeling methods (finite differences, finite elements, moments ...), antenna systems (beam control, wireless communications ...). Different communication schemes are supported such as regular papers, short reports or book reviews. OJAPr follows a strict peer-review process in order to warrant the quality of the communications. We are convinced that we will be linked.
