Robert J. Burkholder works on electromagnetic wave theory and its applications, including how radar waves scatter off objects, propagate through the atmosphere, and are used for imaging. His work spans theoretical modeling (e.g., diffraction and scattering techniques) and applied radar systems such as passive radar, ground-penetrating radar, and radar imaging of satellites and atmospheric layers.
