Course abstract

Prof. Bratin Ghosh received his Bachelors in Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering in 1990 from Jadavpur University, Kolkata, Master of Technology in Electronics and Electrical Communication Engineering with specialization in Microwave Engineering in 1994 from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur and Ph.D. in Applied Electromagnetics in 2002 from the University of Manitoba, Canada. Thereafter, he completed his postdoctoral from the Royal Military College of Canada. He is currently Professor in the Department of Electronics and Electrical Communication Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur. He is a TPC member and an invited / keynote speaker and chaired sessions in many national and international conferences and seminars. He is also in the review and editorial boards of many international journals. He has been the recipient of many federal project grants in addition to research grants from the industry on the design of efficient antennas and guided systems. He has also organized many short term lectures and workshops in the field of applied electromagnetics that have been well attended by participants from both the academia and industry. He had been the recipient of the National Talent Search Scholarship, the University of Manitoba Graduate Fellowship and is Senior Member, IEEE. He has also been the recipient of many national awards, travel grants and best student paper awards. His areas of research interest are full-wave Green’s function technique for the analysis of cylindrical and spherical multilayer structures, singularity removal techniques, efficient evaluation of Sommerfeld integral tails and leaky and creeping waves in cylindrical structures. He is also actively involved in the design and analysis of efficient horn antenna feeds, metamaterials, dielectric resonator antennas, antenna miniaturization and numerical techniques.
