Research summary

This researcher works on radar and wireless communication systems, focusing on how radar signals can be designed and processed to better detect, locate, and image targets while also serving as communication signals. Topics include estimating the direction and timing of reflected signals, designing waveforms (specifically-shaped radio signal patterns) that resist noise and interference, and combining radar sensing with data transmission technologies like OFDM (a method for sending digital data over radio waves). Prospective students would likely engage with signal processing theory, MIMO radar (multi-antenna radar systems), and applications such as drone-based radar and passive radar using existing broadcast signals.
