  • E
    RF and Systems Engineer
    Eta Devices Inc
    Sep 2011 - Dec 2012 (1 year 4 months)
    - MIT based startup funded by Stata Venture Partners and Ray Stata, founder of Analog Devices. - As the first employee, I was responsible for setting up the Eta Laboratory with state of the art RF equipment. - Developed a basestation transmitter test-bed to demonstrate a new highly efficient transmitter architecture, with PA drain efficiencies that were highest in industry for LTE 20MHz BW signal. - Developed a unique and state-of-art Digital Pre-Distortion (DPD) algorithm tailored for the Eta System that allowed the PA to meet linearity and efficiency requirements. - Automated PA characterization routines, developed code to control all the instruments in lab, and developed calibration routines to minimize noise and various mismatches. - Ma

  • B
    Design Engineer (Analog/RF) / Systems Engineer
    BitWave Semiconductor
    Jun 2008 - Apr 2010 (1 year 11 months)
    Designed a low noise, highly linear, low conversion loss transmitter I/Q passive mixer with programmable gain control and adjustable operating point. Applied for USPTO Patent, “Reconfigurable Mixer with Gain Control” January, 2009. Developed a model of the Software Defined Radio (SDR) transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx) using MATLAB Simulink. Performed top transistor-level simulations of the receiver and transmitter chains using Berkley Design Automation (BDA) AFS. These simulations included the package model of the chip, which was extracted and used in our circuit level simulations. Modeled the receiver automatic gain controller (AGC), receiver DC offset algorithm (RxDCO), and a FIR filter for the receiver chain. Programmed a process for al
