Russell Kenney serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Gallogly College of Engineering, University of Oklahoma, where he is an active member of the Advanced Radar Research Center (ARRC). He maintains professional affiliations with IEEE, Eta Kappa Nu, and Tau Beta Pi, reflecting his commitment to engineering excellence.
Dr. Kenney completed his academic journey at the University of Oklahoma:
- Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering (2024)
- M.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering (2020)
- B.S. in Computer Engineering (2019, summa cum laude)
His research centers on radar systems engineering with emphasis on synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) architectures. He develops novel techniques for navigation, synchronization, and signal processing in mobile distributed radar networks, while advancing position, navigation, and timing (PNT) solutions, RF synchronization methods, and microwave component design for next-generation radar applications.
Analysis of his 15 most recent publications (2020-2025) reveals a cohesive research trajectory focused on wireless synchronization for distributed radar networks, clock drift compensation, and multi-sensor fusion for SAR imaging. His work bridges microwave engineering, signal processing, and radar system design through innovations in filter design, waveform optimization, and beam pattern synthesis.
Dr. Kenney's scholarly recognition includes:
- University of Oklahoma’s Outstanding Senior in Computer Engineering Award
- University of Oklahoma Dolese Teaching Fellowship
- IEEE R5 Student Paper Competition Winner (2019, local and area levels)
- IEEE R5 Student Paper Competition Runner-up (2019, regional level)
- DoD National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate (NDSEG) Fellowship (2021)
His DoD NDSEG Fellowship provided critical research funding for doctoral work on wireless synchronization techniques. While specific student advising details aren't published, his faculty role and research output suggest active mentorship of graduate students in radar systems development. Dr. Kenney operates from the ARRC facility, contributing to the center's mission of advancing radar technology through collaborative projects in distributed network synchronization and mobile platform navigation.
