PROFESSINAL EXPERIENCE
Graduate Research Assistant March 2015 ? Present
Microwave and photonics lab, Drexel University, PA
? Developed 1st order filter to examine the behaviour of annular ring at frequencies of 2.5GHz, 5.4GHz and 10 GHz.
? Designed and simulated the performance of a magnetically tuned annular ring antenna and 3rd order band pass annular ring filter with ferromagnetic nanoparticles and ferroelectric thin films as the substrate using COMSOL and HFSS.
? Implemented a tunable hairpin band pass filter using HFSS and Momentum at WiFi frequency band.
? Developed and designed other design structures for filters like radial hairpin, interdigitated and antennas like stack antenna for better gain and return losses.
? Characterized the performance of the resonators, antennas and filters using network analyser.
? Analysed and designed circular and rectangular patch antennas for better gain, return loss and insertion loss.
