Abstract
In this presentation we discuss the requirements of radar sensor design for cyberphyscial systems. We also present CMOS radars that are adjustable in architecture and can satisfy various range and resolution requirements without demanding extra power consumption or extra hardware. The presented CMOS radar chipsets can be used for automotive sensing, surveillance and monitoring, crack detection in buildings, and assisting first responders.
Bio
Hamidreza Aghasi received his B.Sc. degree in electrical engineering from Sharif University of Technology, Tehran, Iran, in 2011, and his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from Cornell University in 2015 and 2017, respectively. In summer 2014, he was an intern with the Samsung Research America Display lab in San Jose, California. From 2017 to 2018 he was a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Michigan, and from 2018 to 2019, he was a mm-Wave research scientist at Acacia Communications Inc in Holmdel, NJ. He is currently an assistant professor in the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Department at the University of California (UC) Irvine where he is the director of High-Speed Integrated Electronics (HIE) Laboratory. His research interests are RF, mm-wave, and terahertz circuit design for applications in imaging, sensing, and communications.
Dr. Aghasi is the chair of IEEE ED/MTT chapter of Orange County and a TPC member of the IEEE Custom Integrated Circuit Conference (CICC). He has served as reviewer of more than 10 different IEEE journals. His group has received multiple awards from National Science Foundation, Army Research Laboratories, and industrial partners. He was the author of “Article in Focus” in IEEE Transactions on Nanotechnology in 2016 and is a co-recipient of the Best Invited Paper Award at 2019 IEEE CICC.
