5th year PhD candidate @ The University of Texas at Austin - Cockrell School of Engineering - ECE department
Visiting Research Scholar @ New York University and Polytechnic Institute of NYU
Technical Background:
- wireless communications - low/high frequency, wideband/narrowband, multi-user, MIMO, 4G, 5G
- electromagnetics - antenna design, test, and measurement, waveguides, metamaterials
- circuits - analog and radio frequency, millimeter-wave, and sub-terahertz frequency
- phased arrays and beam forming
- channel sounding and propagation
- communication system architecture
- modulation, estimation, detection
Supervising professor: Professor Theodore S. Rappaport and Professor Deji Akinwande
Research Organization: Wireless Networking and Communications Group
(WNCG) and NYU WIRELESS.
Research Abstract: My research work pushes the limits of wireless
connectivity by creating next generation high-speed wireless
communication devices at millimeter-wave and sub-terahertz frequencies. These wireless devices transfer gigabits per second
(billions of
bits each second) of data over several meters (~30 feet) and possibly several kilometers. These data rates surpass today's current wireless technology by orders
of magnitude. The
carrier frequency is 57-64 GHz i.e. the "60
GHz band" and 180 GHz. I am using CMOS technology to create high performing
semiconductor devices while minimizing device cost. CMOS is an
inexpensive fabrication technology used worldwide to create digital
circuits such as computer processors. This new wireless technology may compete with wired devices in cost, power, and speed and has various applications in smartphones, tablets, desktop/mobile computing, home entertainment, multimedia players, sensors, vehicles, radar, military, health and many other applications yet to be known.

Collaboration Opportunity with New York University
2012 has started off great! Lots of exciting opportunities down the road including a collaboration between UT-Austin and New York University (NYU). I am now living in New York City to help foster relations between the two universities and with industry as well as continuing to develop the next generation of wireless technology for my PhD completion. I'll be helping to build a collaboration with Polytechnic Institute of NYU (NYU-Poly), NYU Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, NYU School of Medicine, and UT-Austin. The New York City environment demands extraordinary performance from new wireless technology. The urban landscape is very unique and if new wireless devices can be successfully tested here, then the devices will work anywhere ...

Updates from 2010-2011
The 2010-2011 school year has been an eventful one. Had several papers accepted to conferences and prestigious journals. The conferences attended included the IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference in Ottawa, Canada in Sept. 2010, the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers Conference in Cincinnati, Ohio in Oct. 2010, and the IEEE International Solid State and Circuits Conference in San Francisco, California, in Feb. 2011. I was also privileged to visit MIT Lincoln Laboratory in Lexington, Massachusetts in March 2011 as a possible future employer. MIT LL is a federally-funded R&D center with an amazing facility and amazing technical staff solving some of the greatest national security problems. In Oct. 2010 and Sept. 2011, I attended the Marconi Society Symposiums ...
