K. P. Singh
K. P. Singh was born in Jaunpur, UP, India, in January 1947. He received the B.Sc. degree in electrical engineering and the Ph.D. degree in electronics engineering from Banaras Hindu University (BHU), Varanasi, India, in 1969 and 1973, respectively. From 1973 to 1974, he was with the Department of Electrical Engineering, Nagoya University, Nagoya, Japan, as a postdoctoral Fellow where he worked on high power microwave interaction with plasmas. He became a faculty member of the Department of Electronics Engineering, Institute of Technology, BHU, in 1975. Presently, he is serving as a Senior Professor in the same department. In 1992, he was an Associate Professor at the University of Aden, P.D.R. Yemen, on foreign assignment for the Government of India. He was a Visiting Scientist with the Canada Centre for Remote Sensing, Ottawa, Ontario, from 1982 to 1985. Later, he worked as an Airborne Systems Scientist at the same center in 1985. He was engaged in the research and analysis of airborne microwave scatterometers, radiometers, and synthetic aperture radar data from various targets. He also was involved with the calibration of these airborne microwave remote sensors. His research interests include microwave remote sensing, electromagnetic wave interactions with various media, and communications.
