Overview

Suraj is a postdoctoral research associate specializing in the field of ground, UAV, and satellite-based remote sensing and can successfully manage parallel projects and proposal writing. Suraj has +6 years of experience in the domain of electromagnetics applied to remote sensing for earth system monitoring and retrieval. Sujar's expertise extends to utilizing ground, UAV, and satellite-based remote sensing methodologies. I have significant experience in employing computational electromagnetic simulations to enhance scattering and reflectivity models. This enables accurate, radio-realistic, and efficient modeling of propagation and scattering phenomena in diverse environments such as forests, crops, snow, and land surfaces. My contributions are integral to ongoing testbed efforts focusing on radio, microwave, and optical frequency applications.
