معرفی
Patrick McCormick is an Assistant Professor and Assistant Scientist in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) and the Institute for Information Sciences (I2S) at the University of Kansas. He joined the university in 2021 after working at the Air Force Research Laboratory - Sensors Directorate (2018-2021). His research focuses on RF systems, signal processing, and waveform design for radar and communication systems.
- B.S. Mechanical Engineering, University of Kansas (2008)
- B.S. Electrical Engineering, University of Kansas (2013)
- Ph.D. Electrical Engineering, University of Kansas (2018)
McCormick’s research areas include optimal emission design, multifunction transmissions, hardware characterization/compensation, and adaptive model-based parameter estimation. He leads the Radar Systems and Remote Sensing Laboratory (RSL) and has published extensively in radar waveform diversity, spectrum sharing, and adaptive signal processing.
Recent work trends emphasize dual-function radar-communications co-design, low-cost systems, nonlinear hardware characterization, and digital array optimization. His publications span topics like waveform optimization, mutual coupling compensation, and power-efficient joint systems.
