Topic: Towards Next-Generation Intelligent Radar Sensors: Adopting a Hardware-Software-Data Framework for System Design

By: Dr. Arya Menon,

Assistant Professor at the Electromagnetics Group  of Texas A&M University, USA 

IEEE MTT-S YP Outstanding Lecturer 2025

Biography: Arya Menon is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Texas A&M University (TAMU). Dr. Menon received a Bachelor of Engineering degree in electronics and communication from Manipal Institute of Technology, India in 2014, M.S. in electrical engineering from the University of South Florida in 2016, and Ph.D. in electrical and computer engineering from Oregon State University in 2021. She completed her postdoctoral fellowship at Texas A&M University in 2023. Her current research focuses on investigating bio-inspired intelligence in radar design. Her group focuses on three thrusts - hardware-software co-design for cognitive radars, creation of shareable wireless datasets, and sensor fusion with radar. Her other research interests include the design of radiometers, sensor calibration techniques, and dielectric characterization methods. Her research has earned multiple awards and recognition, including selection as a 2025 MTT-S Outstanding YP Lecturer, 2022 DARPA Riser for ‘Bioinspired Hardware-Software Co-Design for Intelligent High-Frequency Active Sensors’, the 2020 ARTFG Roger Pollard Student Fellowship (Silver), and the 2019 IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society Graduate Fellowship, among others. Dr Menon is also a passionate educator and was the recipient of the University of South Florida’s Provost’s Award for Outstanding Teaching in STEM by a Graduate Teaching Assistant in 2018 for her contributions towards developing laboratory experiments for a new undergraduate course in electromagnetics.
