About me

I am Rangababu, a Ph.D. Scholar at NIT Rourkela specializing in RF and Microwave Engineering. My research focuses on the design and development of advanced passive microwave components and antenna systems that support modern wireless communication technologies. I work extensively on innovative RF structures that improve system performance in terms of bandwidth, isolation, reconfigurability, and compactness.

My work primarily involves developing high-performance RF components such as reconfigurable, multi-port, balanced to balanced , diplexing and reflectionless filtering power dividers.

What I'm doing

  • Reconfigurable Filtering Power Divider

    Dividers with reconfigurable filtering capabilities to enable adaptive, multi or single band operation.

  • Reconfigurable Quad Way Filtering Power Divider

    Compact quad way divider with integrated filtering along with switching capabilities between dual band and diplexing operation.

  • Balanced to Balanced Filtering Power Divider

    Differential filtering dividers that offer strong common-mode suppression and high port-to-port isolation.

  • Diplexing Power Divider

    Diplexing dividers that separate signals across frequency bands with minimal loss and great isolation between two channels.

  • Reflectionless Filtering Power Divider

    Reflectionless RF dividers that eliminate reverse reflections and ensure broadband system stability.

  • Antenna Array Design

    Wideband antenna array for beam steering using printed dipole antenna.
