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.
