Overview

Background

Prof. Amin Abbosh specializes in Medical Microwave Imaging and Microwave and Millimeter-wave Engineering. His work focuses on designing and developing advanced imaging and sensing systems using electromagnetic techniques at radio-wave frequencies.

Prof. Abbosh’s significant contributions include the creation of innovative imaging systems that leverage his expertise in applied electromagnetics and microwave engineering. He has developed comprehensive analytical and computational frameworks, incorporating signal-processing techniques for detection and AI for classification. This approach has led to a new modality for detection and imaging, combining physics-guided and data-driven methods. His work is protected by over 16 patents.

In Communication Technologies, Prof. Abbosh's work focuses on designing flat-panel, low-cost reconfigurable antennas. These antennas form ground satellite terminals that communicate with low-earth-orbit (LEO) satellites, providing reliable broadband access to remote and regional communities. This technology supports e-health services, distance education, and business productivity, and can be used in various on-the-move environments.

Available projects

  • Multi-channel, multi-frequency measurements systems for medical electromagnetic imaging

    Advances in signal processing platforms and microwave signal capture have allowed for new architectures of sensors to be developed. Specifically, both the ability to capture higher bandwidth and higher dynamic range as well as the associated processing hardware being capable of more calculations per second.

    Harnessing these new capabilities requires a combination of hardware and software processing, and will enable the development of more and lower-cost medical electromagnetic imaging systems.

    A working knowledge of signal processing and electromagnetics is necessary

  • Wideband Medical Electromagnetic Sensors

    Medical Electromagnetic imaging techniques have the potential to be used in the diagnosis and monitoring of different diseases. To that end, electromagnetic sensors that operate efficiently at their near-field and within the frequency of interest should be properly designed to generate and receive utilized electromagnetic waves. This project will aim at designing compact EM sensors, using different techniques such as open-ended coaxial cables or waveguides, substrate-integrated waveguides, or any suitable near-field antenna. Those sensors should have wideband performance and thus the potential to be used as a portable medical probe or scanner.

    The successful candidate should have a strong background in (a) electromagnetic radiation, and (b) microwave engineering

  • Computationally efficient electromagnetic solver using AI

    With the fast progress in forming more complex electromagnetic (EM) structures with many design parameters and large demand for real-time solutions to complex EM problems in embedded devices, the need for a new EM-solving approach that can keep pace with the computational requirements has become more imminent. This project aims at developing a novel computationally efficient EM solver which is implementable on systems with limited resources using a physics-informed sparse deep neural network that solves partial differential forms of Maxwell’s equations without relying on other computational EM solver solutions. The successful candidate will specifically develop signal processing and machine learning algorithms for a real-time electromagnetic solver.

    The successful candidate should have a strong background in Artificial Intelligence & a working knowledge of electromagnetics and signal analysis

  • Reconfigurable Microwave Devices using Smart Materials

    This project aims at utilizing the electrodynamic properties of artificial materials in designing reconfigurable, or tunable, electromagnetic devices at the microwave frequency band, such as antennas, filters, couplers, etc. The reconfigurability might aim at controlling the center operating frequency, bandwidth, radiation pattern or direction, etc. The selected candidate will investigate the effect of different properties of those materials on the electromagnetic reconfigurability of microwave devices.
