NEC-LIST: Resume (Antenna/Microwave Design Engineer)

Hi,

   I am interested in working as an antenna/microwave design
engineer. I expect to complete my Ph.D. requirements in June 1998. For
the past four years, my research work has dealt mainly with
beam-steerable low-profile traveling-wave antennas for operation at
microwave and at millimeter-wave frequencies. Prior to starting my
graduate studies at the University of Toronto, I was a member of the
technical staff at Nortel (Bell-Northern Research), Ottawa, Canada,
working in the area of nonlinear microwave-circuit analysis. Please
feel free to contact me if you would like further information. Thank
you.

Regards,

Karam Noujeim

WORK EXPERIENCE:

   09/92 - Present: Research Assistant, Electromagnetics Group, Univ. of Toronto
      - Analysis, design, and measurement of wire antennas, microstrip antenna
        arrays, and leaky waveguides
      - Anechoic-chamber antenna measurements up to 40 GHz
      - Semi-anechoic-chamber measurements for EMC
      - Analysis of microstrip antennas and circuits using the method of moments
