PROJECTS

Passive and Active RF circuit components

Design, fabrication, test, and characterization of power dividers,

directional couplers and impedance matching circuits at 2.4 and 5 GHz.

Design of RF filters, RF amplifiers at 2.4 and 5 GHz.

Parasitic layer based Beam-steering Antenna for mmWave (60GHz) applications

. Involved in designing microfabrication compatible CPW fed beam-

steering patch antenna at 60 GHz. Beam steering is achieved by a

reconfigurable pixellized parasitic layer with switch

interconnections.

Parasitic layer based Beam-steering Antenna for Public Safety Applications

. Involved in the design, fabrication, test, and characterization

of pin-diode integrated beam-steering coaxial-fed patch antenna

at 4.9 GHz using reconfigurable parasitic layer.

Frequency Reconfigurable Antenna for Public Safety Applications

. Experienced in design, fabrication, test, and characterization

of an electrically small MEMS integrated quad band antenna which

operates over Public Safety frequency bands: 220 MHz, 470 MHz,

800 MHz and 4900 MHz.

Broadband PIFAs for Public Safety Applications

. Experienced in the design of broadband Planar Inverted F

Antenna which operates over 400 - 800 MHz band.

Phased Array

Design, fabrication, test, and characterization of 4 x 1 phased array

using switched line phase shifting at 10 GHz. The individual antenna

element is an aperture coupled patch antenna.
