Summary
I am an RF/antenna engineer having designed, fabricated and measured several antennas, both in single and array configurations. In particular, I have worked on passive phased array concepts using two of the most popular materials i.e. Barium Strontium Titanate (BST) and Liquid Crystals (LC). I have gained unique experience of conceptualization, design and measurement (calibration) of antenna elements and feed networks for liquid crystal based phased arrays for satellite and 5G communication. My latest experience is that of unique ultralight manufacturing technology for aerospace grade waveguide components.
