RESEARCH PROJECTS
MISSION OPERATIONS

ACTIVE

VECTOR SARDF: UAV-based Automatic Direction Finding for Search and Rescue

Developing an automatic UAV system capable of locating emergency beacons using software-defined radio (SDR), RF direction finding, and AERPAW channel-sounding calibration. Integrates onboard SLAM, GNSS, and machine-learning-based signal processing for real-time geolocation and mapping support to Civil Air Patrol and disaster response operations. Developed advanced autonomous navigation system for unmanned aerial vehicles using computer vision and machine learning algorithms. Achieved 98% obstacle avoidance accuracy in real-world testing environments.

ACTIVE

JUMP AERO:  pulse Aircraft tug design

Currently developing an aircraft tug to support Jump Aero’s rapid-response eVTOL operations. Leading design and simulation efforts in Onshape and SimSolid, focusing on structural analysis, load-bearing optimization, and system integration for towing aircraft up to 3,300 lbs. Implementing finite element analysis (FEA) to validate frame performance and winch system. Building comprehensive web platform for aircraft structural analysis and optimization. Integrates FEA simulation tools with cloud computing infrastructure to reduce design iteration time by 60%.

COMPLETED

Performance analysis of the russian federation nebo-m vhf band radar

Conducted analytical and simulation-based research on the Russian Nebo-M VHF radar to evaluate its detection capabilities against fifth-generation stealth aircraft such as the F-35 Lightning II. Developed a probabilistic radar model using MATLAB, employing Gaussian noise, Bernoulli detection, and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) modeling. Validated results through Command Modern Operations (CMANO) simulations, comparing stealth and conventional aircraft engagement scenarios. The study demonstrated that long-wavelength VHF radars can maintain detection probability at extended ranges, reinforcing the need for advanced countermeasure strategies. Created real-time analytics dashboard for mission-critical operations monitoring. Features live data visualization, predictive maintenance alerts, and multi-source data integration with military-grade security.
