Aoyagi Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that studies electromagnetic waves broadly, from radio wave absorbers to wireless communication around the human body.

AboutAbout the lab
Studying radio waves and the environment, and radio waves and the human body.
The Aoyagi Lab studies electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), as well as radio wave propagation and wireless communication.
The lab also investigates how radio waves propagate around and inside the human body, and conducts research aimed at healthcare and medical applications.
It also works on education in electrical and electronic engineering that incorporates elements of art.
The lab belongs to the wave and communications group in electrical and electronic engineering, and collaborates with labs in the Department of Transdisciplinary Science and Engineering.
Key terms
- Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
- A field that aims to ensure that electromagnetic waves emitted by electronic devices do not adversely affect other devices or people
- Radio wave absorber
- A material that absorbs incoming radio waves and reduces their reflection
- Reverberation chamber
- A room enclosed by metal walls in which radio waves are reflected many times, used for testing equipment
- Body area network
- A network in which devices worn on or placed near the body communicate with each other wirelessly

The lab studies electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), which deals with the effects of electromagnetic waves on nearby equipment and the environment, as well as radio wave propagation and wireless communication. It also conducts research for healthcare and medicine, such as wireless communication around the human body and measurement of human movement.
*Illustrative imageElectromagnetic Compatibility
The lab works on the analysis and design of radio wave absorbers and reverberation chambers, estimation of the sources of electromagnetic noise, and measurement of electrical constants such as the permittivity of the human finger.
*Illustrative imageRadio Wave Propagation and Wireless Communication
The lab studies body area networks and radio wave propagation inside the body. It also works on measuring the amount of abdominal fat using microwaves, and on wireless communication using terahertz waves.
*Illustrative imageInformation and Communications Engineering
For healthcare and medical applications, the lab studies the classification of human motion from wireless signals. It also investigates human body movement using airborne ultrasound and electromyography (EMG).
*Illustrative imageEducational Technology
The lab works on education in electrical and electronic engineering that incorporates elements of art.
