Prof Ram Narayanan

Vitae

Ram M. Narayanan received his B.Tech degree in Electrical Engineering (Electronics) from the Indian Institute of Technology at Madras, India in 1976 and his Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst in 1988. During the period 1976-1983, he worked as a Design and Development Engineer at Bharat Electronics Limited, Ghaziabad, India. He joined the Electrical Engineering Department at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 1988, where he last served as Blackman & Lederer Chaired Professor of Electrical Engineering. He is currently a Professor of Electrical Engineering at the Pennsylvania State University. He has been working in the area of and radar system development, radar remote sensing applications, image analysis, and antenna characterization for over twenty years. His major research accomplishments include the development of high resolution imaging using random noise radar, the development of mid-infrared laser remote sensing technology, the development of ground penetrating radar (GPR) for transportation infrastructure assessment, and the characterization of information content in remotely sensed images. He has published over 65 papers in refereed journals, and presented over 150 conference papers. Dr. Narayanan was elected Fellow of the IEEE in 2001 and Fellow of the SPIE in 2004.

Ram Narayanan's research interests are: High-resolution radar system conception and development, Scattering phenomenology from volume and surface targets, Information content characterization in remotely sensed imagery, Ground penetrating radar (GPR) applications for infrastructure assessment, and Covert communications systems and concepts.
