Debatosh Guha is a Professor of the Institute of Radio Physics and Electronics, University of Calcutta and an Adjunct Professor at Malaviya National Institute of Technology Jaipur. He is formerly HAL Chair Professor of the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, Head of the Institute of Radio Physics and Electronics, and Director of the Centre for Research in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology of the University of Calcutta.
He received the BTech, MTech, and PhD degrees from the University of Calcutta in 1986, 1988, and 1994 respectively and had undertaken his post-doctoral research at the Canadian Defense University at Kingston, Ontario. He has made original contributions to developing planar antenna technology for the new generation radar, sensor, and communication systems. He is a Fellow of IEEE and also a Fellow of all four National Science and Engineering Academies in India. He was Abdul Kalam Technology Innovation National Fellow, Govt. of India.
About 100 journal articles are to his credit, the majority of which appeared in IEEE Transactions and Letters. He has contributed a few feature articles to IEEE Magazines projecting deeper scientific insights into some engineering problems of common interests. He has authored and co-authored nearly 150 conference papers and 2 reference books on planar antennas. Many of his works have been featured in renowned textbooks and handbooks on antenna engineering.
Deabatosh over the last two decades has mentored a large group of doctoral, post-doctoral, and master’s students who have been well established across the globe in top Industries, R&D organizations, and leading Universities in India, Europe, and North America. His current research group comprises both full-time and part-time researchers along with vibrant collaborators from ISRO, HCL Technologies, University of Glasgow, and a limited cluster of his former students. They are exploring innovative approaches to solve a wide range multiple industry oriented challenges starting from 4G/5G base-station antenna structures to compact space borne beam shaping antenna systems.
