The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers named Dr. Muralidhar Rangaswamy, Air Force Research Laboratory Sensors Directorate senior electronics engineer, a Fellow for his contributions to mathematical techniques for radar space-time adaptive processing.

Dr. Rangaswamy's past research has focused on several aspects of adaptive target detection for airborne radar applications. His recent research has focused on knowledge aided radar signal processing and waveform diverse sensors and systems for integrated command, control, communications and intelligence for future airborne and spaceborne radar systems.

Dr. Rangaswamy authored a multidisciplinary university research initiative topic, which was selected for funding by the Office of the Secretary of Defense. He authored 19 refereed journal articles and more than 50 conference record papers in the areas of his research interests. He is a co-inventor on two U.S. patents and a contributing author to three books.

Dr. Rangaswamy has been a senior member of the IEEE since 1998 and is an associate editor for the IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems in addition to being a member of the sensor array and multichannel processing technical committee of the IEEE Signal Processing Society. He has delivered numerous presentations at academic, industrial and government forums.
