Aritra Banerjee has been named as a recipient of an IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society Graduate Fellowship. A Ph.D. student in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Georgia Tech, he will receive this honor at a special student awards luncheon that will be held during the 2012 IEEE International Microwave Symposium, which will take place June 17-22 in Montreal, Canada.
Advised by ECE Professor Abhijit Chatterjee, Mr. Banerjee works in the area of design and testing of digitally assisted adaptive analog/RF circuits and systems. The focus of his research is to design and test digitally assisted adaptive analog/RF circuits and systems for process variation tolerant, low power, and reliable operation which aims to leverage digital correction and calibration techniques to improve analog and RF performance. This technology will enable the development of ultra-low power, intelligent, and flexible RF communication systems.
