Mesa, Az

Working on speech/audio enhancement algorithms including noise reduction, linear/nonlinear multi-channel echo cancellation and far-field spatial processing for voice assistants.

Mesa Az

Developed novel algorithms for echo cancellation in challenging noise environments.

Fremont, Ca

Managed 25 full-time and part-time faculty, Interfaced with upper management, performed course scheduling, tracked student progress and supervised student projects. Was awarded the Ron Taylor award for excellence in performance.

San Jose, Ca

Taught courses on signal processing with MATLAB and design of radio frequency integrated circuits (RFIC) using Cadence tools.

Developed state-of-the-art speech coding algorithms that were bit stream compliant with the existing standardized codecs but provided higher speech quality.Developed novel algorithms for modeling and equalization of small loudspeakers in mobile devices to get high-quality speech and music at high playback levels (as in speakerphone mode).

San Jose, Ca

Moss Landing, California, United States

Principal investigator of MBARI on a multi-national, multi-institutional project to measure the feasibility of measuring global warming by sending low frequency sound waves from Australia and receiving it in Monterey, CA. Was in charge of the design and deployment of data collection systems including a one-mile long hydrophone array and its deployment and data collection subsystems. Worked on acoustic modems for data transfer from underwater sensors. Was project manager for designing a real-time system for detection and classification of underwater sound sources. Was guest of NPR's Science Friday program on underwater acoustics.

Sunnyvale, California, United States

Worked on MVDR beamformers for geological signal processing. Worked on projects for classification of underwater sources using transient sounds.

Palo Alto, California, United States
