Dr. Abbas Abbaspour-Tamijani joined ASU in the fall of 2004. He received a PhD in electrical engineering from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, in 2003, and his BS and MS degrees from the University of Tehran, Iran, in 1994 and 1997, respectively. From 1997 to 2000, he worked as a consulting RF engineer. In 2004, he was a senior Antenna RF Engineer with Motia Inc., Pasadena, California.

Dr. Abbaspour-Tamijani is a member of the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques, Antennas and Propagation, and Engineering in Medicine and Biology societies.  In 2008, he was a recipient of DARPA’s Microsystems Technology Office Young Investigator Award.

Novel device concepts for reconfigurable radio systems including beam-steerable and reconfigurable antennas and ultrawideband tunable filters, vibrating and non-vibrating RF MEMS technologies for communications and sensing, multi-functional millimeter-wave modules, and applications of microwave technology for neural interfacing and biotelemetry.
