- The purpose of this paper is two-fold. Firstly, we have attempted to design a planar Sierpinski fractal antenna with stacked configuration for multiband applications. The stacked configuration of Sierpinski fractal patch and Sierpinski grid are employed to improve the multiband characteristics. The operating frequencies obtained are at 3.3 GHz, 5GHz, 5.74 GHz and 5.9 GHz which covers the bands useful for HIPERLAN2 frequencies and for implementation in futuristic WiFi enabled devices and PCI Cards for mobile internet. The Simulated results show that the operating frequencies obtained are spread over a wide range of frequency band compared to the simple Sierpinski fractal patch antenna. Secondly this paper aims at evaluating the sustainability and life cycle management of proposed antenna.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this work cradle to grave life cycle assessment of printed electronics resources have been presented. An attempt has been made to investigate and evaluate the life cycle assessment and environmental impacts of printed electronics resources such as polymer substrate-printed RFID antenna. Life cycle inventory analysis for these resources has been carried out to quantify total systems' inputs and outputs that are relevant to the environmental impacts especially emissions to air, fresh water, industrial soil and sea water. The results show that printed electronics materials are considerably more environment friendly than materials needed for PCB electronics. We have obtained the mass of emissions in each life cycle stages which verify that technology wise printed antenna causes less harmful and hazardous impacts to the environment.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper aims to give an insight into the importance of green ICT course in the curriculum of Master and PhD level studies. An attempt has been made to demonstrate its necessity, implementation issues and strategic plans to execute this course. General structural plans along with details of the course content are discussed in this paper. The course aims to provide a unified view of sustainable embedded system technologies, practices of using efficiently computers and telecommunication equipments, environmental assessment strategies and life cycle management of electronic components as well as end-products. The objective of this new course is to give knowledge and foresight toward assessment of environmental impacts. This course will also be capable of imparting knowledge of sustainable design approach in life cycle of the materials, manufacturing processes, use/reuse and recycling of the electronic equipments and components. The course has been proposed of 5 ECTS credit units inclusive of extensive theoretical lectures and lab exercises using suitable environmental assessment software tools.

- This paper presents information and communication system technological development towards personalized and pervasive healthcare systems. In the recent years, information and communication technology has been providing an innovative health care solution to the society. With the massive increase in aging and stressed population, the health care solutions necessitate the use of more in-home monitoring and tracking system. In this paper, we have gathered the data from early 1970s to present date in terms of information and communication technology’s developments, use of wireless communication systems, and state-of-art of body area sensor network in personalized and pervasive health care. We have also put an effort to present our work in developing a robust, privacy compliant, accurate and cost-effective system that facilitates monitoring of patient status, patient activity and compliance with therapy. The proposed system will also be capable in developing patient-oriented services to support patient empowerment, self-care, adherence to care plans and treatment at the point of need.

- This position paper gives an insight for self-aware and adaptivity requirements of the sub-systems embedded in a satellite spacecraft. The most significant and considerable issues of self-aware and adaptive systems that are necessary in present and future on-board satellite spacecraft are illustrated in this paper. An attempt has been made to discuss several embedded sub-systems and space environment scenarios of the spacecraft. As a case study, an adaptive sierpinski based dual band antenna has been devised. The adaptive nature of this antenna provides a foundation of longer and more reliable mission life of a spacecraft. Through this paper it will be shown that adaptive, reconfigurable and reliability issues are the most prominent and potential area of research for outer space communication technology.

- Quantifying environmental footprint is an important task for the embedded system researcher as this study keep them aware of environmental impacts' threat toward green and healthy living of human beings. In this work we have presented a study on analysis of sustainability and environmental impacts assessment in manufacturing process of rigid substrate printed antennas. Life cycle assessment approach has been employed to quantify and asses the environmental footprint. A case study has been carried out for epoxy resin substrate based tip truncated equilateral triangle microstrip antenna. The subtractive printing methodology have been conducted to trace the required antenna pattern. The output parameters have been analyzed in terms of global warming potential, ozone layer depletion potential, human toxicity and acidification potential. Gabi's balance approach has been utilized to analyze the environmental emissions to the air, fresh water, sea water, agricultural and industrial soils. The consumption of resources has also been shortly described in this paper.

- This work gives a unique insight into evaluating sustainability, life cycle assessment and environmental emissions of the specified RFID tag antenna that validates the potential for ultra-low cost mass production for green electronics. We have designed a printed RFID antenna that employs commercially available paper substrates, and has capability to endure itself at varying environmental effects. The geometry and dimension of the antenna has been set as per requirement of read range of RFID tag. The environmental emissions profiles global warming, acidification potential, ozone layer depletion and human toxicity potentials are illustrated in this paper.
