Marianna Ivashina (born 1975) is a professor in Antenna Systems at Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden.

Biography

[edit]

Marianna Ivashina received a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the Sevastopol National Technical University (SNTU), Ukraine, in 2001. From 2001 to 2010 she was with The Netherlands Institute for Radio Astronomy (ASTRON), where she carried out research on innovative phased array feed (PAF) technologies for future radio telescopes, such as the Square Kilometer Array (SKA), and APERTIF PAF system for the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope.

Marianna Ivashina is since 2017 Full Professor at Chalmers University of Technology, where she is head of the antenna systems research group at the Department of Electrical Engineering. Her research interests are electromagnetic design of antennas for future wireless communication and sensor systems, e.g., 5G base-stations, satellites, radars, radio telescopes, automated/cooperative systems. This includes various antenna types and technologies, such as active beamforming array antennas, MIMO antennas, high-gain reflector antennas and focal plane arrays, unconventional array architectures such as irregular, thinned and sparse arrays. An important part of her current research is integration and packaging of antennas with ICs as well as Over-The-Air (OTA) characterization of antenna systems, including system effects of signal processing and propagation.

She is an Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation, and a European School of Antennas Board member

Marianna Ivashina is the vice-director of the VINNOVA Antenna Excellence Research Centre ChaseON. She is a Lead Scientist of the European Horizon2020 Innovative Training Network SILIKA ‘Silicon-based Ka-band massive MIMO antenna systems for new telecommunication services’ that is a collaboration between Chalmers University of Technology and Eindhoven University of Technology (The Netherlands), Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (Belgium), Ericsson (Sweden), NXP (The Netherlands).
