SUMMARY:
* Completed design and test of LNA, harmonic filters, transmit/receive antenna systems in C,X,Ku and Ka Band.
* RF transmitter and receiver system design for satellite communication
* Researched and designed L Band front-end receiver incorporating a low noise amp and microstrip filter. Investigated GaAs and BJT devices for use in the LNA section.
* Conducted RF and antenna system design and analysis using AWR, FEKO and CST.
* Developed block diagrams from requirements and designed board level analog circuitry.
* Used Pspice for schematic capture and PCB layout.
* Learned synthesis, design and simulation for narrow band, wide band, OMT and waveguide types of passive filters operating from C to Ka Band.
* Skilled in using Vector Network Analyzer, Spectrum Analyzer, Anechoic Chamber far field measurements, Oscilloscopes, Impedance Analyzer, Signal Generator, Curve Tracers, LCR Meters and other Tektronix/Agilent equipment,
* Standard procedures for RF path verification
* Designed matching circuits for amplifiers using Microwave Office simulation program
* Generated design documents and test reports.
* Wrote internal research papers on broadband satallite communication system designs.
* Simulated and optimized slot and aperture-coupled patch antennas by using FEKO and CST.
* Antenna design (Special area: Wide band log-periodic antennas, reflector antennas)
