I have done Doctorate in Electrical Engineering (Photonics). My project durimg Ph.D was "Development of Flexible Microwave Antennas for Breast Cancer Imaging System".The summary of the project is, new material is suggested for flexible antennas and the antenna properties are in agreement with traditional non-flexible antennas which make the flexible antennas of Pyralux polyimide of great interest. As it provide reliable, wearable, flexible antenna with low cost. Antennas are designed in microwave range (2-2.5GHz). Two kinds of substrate material are used FR4 and Pyralux Polyimide. Pyarlux Polyimide is a flexible material. Three different designs like Rectangular Patch antenna, Bow Tie and Split Rectangular Patch Antennas are designed for current project. S-parameters, Radiation pattern and electric field are analyzed to detect the performance of antenna in air and in the presence of phantom (either healthy or diseased). On the bases of dielectric properties of cancerous tissues, tumors are analyzed inside the breast phantom which is designed in HFSS. The aim of this work is to developed flexible antenna for microwave imaging system. Therefore, on the basis of three different kind of results, flexible antenna will be fabricating and measured in the laboratory with phantoms.For Professional skills, I performed duties as visiting Professor in Pakistan for following subjectsModern PhysicsLaser Physics In Brazil under the condition of CAPES scholarship, I performed my duties as intern for the subject EL452: Digital Systems for total of 60 hours for two semesters in 2017.
