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.
