About the Author

Matthew M. Radmanesh received his MSEE and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, in Microwave Electronics and Electro-Optics in 1980 and 1984, respectively.

He has worked in academia for Kettering University (formerly GMI Engineering & Manage-ment) and in industry for Hughes Aircraft Co., Maury Microwave Corp. and Boeing Aircraft Co. He is currently a faculty member in the electrical and computer engineering department at California State University, Northridge, CA.

Dr. Radmanesh is a senior member of IEEE, Eta Kappa Nu Honor society and a past president (three years) of the SFV Chapter of the IEEE Microwave Theory and Technique (MTT) society. His many years of experience in both microwave industry and academia have led to over 40 technical papers in national and international journals and several design handbooks in microwave engineering and in solid state devices and integrated circuit engineering.

His current research interests include design of RF and Microwave devices and circuits, millimeter-wave circuit applications, photonic engineering as well as engineering education. He received the distinguished lecturer award at the 1994 IEEE international Microwave Symposium and was awarded twice by IEEE LA council for his contributions to the MTT society (1994, 1995). He also received two awards for commitment and dedication to education from IEEE in 2002 and 2003.

Dr. Radmanesh won the MPD divisional award while at Hughes Aircraft Co. for his pioneering work in the development and design of solid state millimeter wave noise sources in Ka- and V-band, and a similar award for his outstanding contributions to the HERF project from Boeing Aircraft Co. He holds two patents for his pioneering work and novel designs of two millimeter-wave noise sources.

Dr. Radmanesh authored a popular book entitled “Cracking the Code of Our Physical Universe,” in 2006, and another “The Gateway to Understanding: Electrons to Waves and Beyond,” accompanied by a comprehensive workbook in 2005, all published by AuthorHouse; as well as another textbook entitled "Radio Frequency and Microwave Electronics Illustrated" published by Prentice Hall in 2001, with its Chinese edition (ISBN 7-5053-7628-4) published in 2002 and the Korean language translation (ISBN 89-7283-264-2) in 2005.  

Dr. Radmanesh intends to bring about a higher level of understanding in the scientific community and the society at large, about the basic principles of life and livingness of which the knowledge about sciences and engineering is but a subset.
