Dr. Yogesh Nijsure

Dr. Yogesh Anil Nijsure received the B.Eng. degree (Distinction) in Electronics Engineering from the University of Mumbai, India, in June 2006 and received his M.Sc. degree (Distinction) in Wireless Communication Systems Engineering from the University of Greenwich, U.K., in September 2008. He received his Ph.D. degree from the University of Newcastle upon Tyne in the U.K. in October 2012. From March 2010 to September 2010, he was a research intern at the Institute for Infocomm Research (I2R), Singapore, wherein he undertook research on the fusion of cognitive radar and cognitive radio paradigms. From November 2011 to November 2012, he worked as a research associate at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. Within this research tenure, he was involved in simulation, design and research on UWB radar systems design for biomedical applications. From December 2012 to April 2014, he worked at Rockwell Collins India Pvt. Ltd. as a Technical Specialist-Systems within the aerospace and defense research domain. He worked for several Government and commercial projects within radar signal processing and electronic warfare applications. From May 2014 to June 2016, he was a post-doctoral research fellow at Ecole de Technologie Superieure (ETS), University of Quebec, Montreal, QC, Canada. He investigated future air-traffic surveillance and wide area multi-lateration techniques during this postdoctoral research. From June 2016 to May 2017, he worked as a research associate at the University of Luxembourg, where he was involved with cognitive waveform design for automotive radars, specifically working in close collaboration with IEE Luxembourg on thedesign of PMCW and FMCW millimeter-wave radar signal processing algorithms. Since May 2017, he has been serving as a Director, EW applications at D-TA systems Inc., where he continues to design, develop and implement innovative ideas within cognitive radar systems and allied EW/ELINT/COMINT/ESM/ECCM applications. His research interests include cognitive radar network design, Bayesian non-parametric methods for wireless sensor network applications, UWB radar systems, cognitive radio networks, wireless communication theory, information theory applied to radar signal processing, electronic warfare and software defined radio systems. Over the years, he has extensively published within several Top-Tier IEEE Transactions journals, and conferences and has also published a book entitled Cognitive Radar Systems Design and continues to serve as a reviewer for journals including IEEE Transactions on Signal processing, IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology, IET Radar Sonar Navigation and several others.
