Romain Pascaud

Romain Pascaud is a researcher affiliated with the Department of Electronics, Optronics and Signal Processing (DEOS) at ISAE-SUPAERO. His work focuses on microwave/plasma interactions, with applications in power limiting devices, electrically small antennas, and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) for spacecraft systems. Collaborations span industrial partners like Anywaves, governmental agencies (CEA, CNES, DGA), and academic institutions (ENAC, LAPLACE).

• Research Themes
  • Plasma-based microwave power limiters and antennas
  • Space-time plasma steering sources
  • EMC between plasma thrusters and communication systems
• Key Technologies
  • 3D-printed anisotropic ceramics
  • Time reversal plasma ignition
  • RF blackout mitigation via external fields

His 15 most recent publications (2018-2025) emphasize microwave plasma modeling, dielectric resonator antennas, and EMC simulations for CubeSats. Awards include Best Paper (2019) and Best Student Presentation (2020, 2021). Former students hold engineering roles at Syntony GNSS, ArianeGroup, SAFRAN, and academia.

Current openings seek graduate students and postdocs for funded projects with CNES, AID, and Région Occitanie. Students' work spans antenna miniaturization, Huygens sources, and plasma thruster interactions.
