About us

Since 1999, our team is committed to the development of industry ready systems at lower cost for defense and communication applications.

Our group is headed by Prof. Nidhi S. Bhattacharyya and co-advised by Prof. Satyajib Bhattacharyya from the department of ECE, Tezpur University. We accentuate development of low-profile, flexible electromagnetic shielding materials and compact, reconfigurable antenna systems. Lately, our group has embarked successfully into development and application of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles for aerial imaging. Our product oriented research encompasses a broad range of domains including RCS lowering in C, X, and Ku-bands with meta structure-based absorbers, cloaking, beam forming and phased array antenna systems, 2D metasurface lens antenna, Intelligent surfaces, SAR analysis for body-worn applications. The laboratory is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities such as microwave network analysers ranging up to 40GHz, radiation pattern measuring systems, SAR measuring systems, Additive manufacturing technology, Free space setup, RF digester, well equipped Microwave material manufacturing and characterization unit.
