Phased array — Princeton researchers have developed a new type of phased array antenna based on large-area electronics technology, which could enable many uses of emerging 5G and 6G wireless networks. The researchers tested the system on the roof of Princeton’s Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment. Can Wu

Class of 2023 asked to apply fundamental knowledge to modern challenges

Professor Claire Gmachl gives a physics lecture — Professor Claire Gmachl teaches a first-year physics course on “Mechanics, Energy, and Waves,” part of a new sequence of courses for first-year undergraduates in the School of Engineering and Applied Science. The courses present the same math and physics as more traditional course offerings, but place a greater emphasis on problem-solving in the context of modern engineering challenges.
