Portuguese researchers are studying ways to install antennas for mobile phones buttons, belts or garments improving the transmission and reducing the impact of radiation exposure, today said an expert of INOV-INESC.
“The idea is, incorporating electronics in clothing, can increase the quality of service and the rate of transmission when we are using mobile phones” alternatives that are worked also thinking about protecting the health of users, Luís Correia told Lusa agency, investigator INOV-INESC coordinator.
When are distributed antennas by clothing, “rather than be using only one antenna, the powers are also distributed, become lower and the impact it has radiation exposure is also lower, “explained Professor Instituto Superior Técnico (IST).
This is an example of the application of technologies in the telecommunications area, antennas and propagation of signals studied by researchers at IST and reported by Luís Correia speaking the purpose of conducting the annual meeting the EurAAP (European Association on Antennas and Propagation or European antennas and propagation association).
Antennas and propagation
EUCAP 2015 begins on Sunday and continues throughout next week in Lisbon, bringing together some 1,300 experts from 55 countries will present more than a thousand scientific papers on their research, an exchange of experiences and debate on the technological developments in mobile communications, medical, defense, security or space.
The initiative, promoted by IST and the INOV-INESC, also has 42 industry exhibitors and academia, including the European Space Agency, and the presence of guest speakers from countries like Brazil or Japan, and the Portuguese João Schwarz da Silva, who was director of Networking and Communications in the European Commission between 1991 and 2004.
Luís Correia, who is also the president of the conference , said other examples of applications of technologies such as devices called “smart pills”. “People swallow a device and doctors can see, for example in the digestive tract, what goes, and have diagnostic methods, which at this time are not made,” he said.
It is a possibility still being investigated, but “there are already small prototypes of some of the work objects, although not fully developed yet, although it is not available commercial products, in this case to the area of medicine, “he warned.
In the area of internet, will be highlighted the safety of equipment, so as to allow a company or an institution ensure that a computer is always a room and avoid that someone can take .
“This study presents a security system which recognizes the propagation of a signal within the security area and, withdrawing the computer generates an alarm because the signal propagation begins to be different, “according to Luis Correia.
The spatial area is equally important and is “enormous challenges”, stressed Professor of IST, giving the example of the antennas of the spacecraft, which must be designed and sized to meet certain specifications, the weight energy consumption.
