About

Theodore K. Anthony is a specialist in millimeter-wave antenna design, with a primary focus on developing compact, high-performance arrays for radar systems, particularly in the 76 GHz band. His major contributions center on the creation of a 32-element linear pyramidal horn array, fed by a waveguide power divider, which achieves a 33 dB Taylor distribution for exceptionally low side-lobes. This antenna was specifically engineered for a personnel avoidance radar system on robotic vehicles, requiring a narrow azimuth beam and broad elevation beam to detect obstacles and prevent collisions. His 2009 paper on this design has garnered 14 citations, while a companion paper characterizing the antenna's performance in the full radar system has received 2 citations. Anthony's work is notable for its practical application in autonomous navigation, addressing the critical need for reliable collision avoidance in robotics. His designs demonstrate a sophisticated balance between compact form factor and demanding electrical specifications, including high gain and low side-lobe levels, marking him as a key contributor to the advancement of millimeter-wave radar technology for vehicular safety systems.
