My research interests lie at the intersection of satellite navigation receiver technologies and the application of navigation satellite signals for remote sensing of the space environment, atmosphere, and Earth surface.
ASEN 3300 - Aerospace Electronics and Communications
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2020
Provides the fundamentals of electronics and communications widely used in aerospace engineering. Includes analog instrumentation electronics, data acquisition, digital electronics and radio communication. Offered spring only.
ASEN 5210 - Remote Sensing Seminar
Primary Instructor
-
Fall 2018
Covers subjects pertinent to remote sensing of the Earth, including oceanography, meteorology, vegetation monitoring, and geology. Emphasizes techniques for extracting geophysical information from satellite data. Course requirement for Remote Sensing Certificate. Formerly ASEN 6210.
ASEN 6090 - Advanced Global Navigation Satellite Systems: Software and Applications
Primary Instructor
-
Fall 2019
Focuses on high-precision applications of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the software tools that are needed to achieve these precisions. Topics include precise orbital determination, reference frames, atmospheric delays, relativity, clock models, ambiguity resolution, and scientific applications. Recommended prerequisite: ASEN 5090 or instructor consent required.
ASEN 6091 - Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) Receiver Architecture
Primary Instructor
-
Fall 2019
Investigates the overall architecture of satellite navigation receivers: including both the analog radio frequency conditioning (antenna to the analog-to-digital converter) and the various signal processing algorithms. Such treatment of the operation of the receiver will provide insight into the trade-offs that go into GNSS as well as the more broad generic spread spectrum receiver design. Recommended prerequisite: ASEN 5090.
