Prabhakar H. Pathak

This researcher works on the mathematical modeling of electromagnetic waves, particularly how radio and radar signals scatter, diffract, and radiate from antennas placed on complex surfaces like curved metal platforms, coated materials, and phased array antennas. The work is highly theoretical, developing ray-based and high-frequency approximation methods (such as the Uniform Theory of Diffraction, or UTD) to predict how electromagnetic fields behave in practical engineering scenarios like antenna design for aircraft, satellites, or radar systems. This research area falls within applied electromagnetics and antenna engineering.

Publication output has been modest and irregular over the past decade, with a small cluster of activity in 2017 followed by gaps in several years and a low but steady output of one to two papers per year in recent years.
