    Silverfox UAS
    Lead Electrical Engineer · The Silver Fox UAS is an Unmanned aerial system (UAS) that can conduct autonomous aerial surveillance imaging. The Silver… · More Fox UAS is designed to provide low cost aerial surveillance imaging and carry sensor payload packages weighing up to four pounds. Video images are transmitted from Silver Fox to a ground station for quick reference. One ground station can simultaneously operate ten units.

    During my tenure, I increased the capability of UAVs through proper C2 and data link system design and EMI/RFI suppression and which resulted in doubling the effective operational range of the UAS.
    Manta UAS
    Lead Electrical Engineer · The Manta offers tactical UAV capabilities in a low-cost, compact, durable aerodynamic platform with extended flight… · More endurance. Manta's standard payload includes a daylight or Infrared pan/tilt/zoom camera providing long range, low altitude, and live situational awareness capability. The Manta offers an effective solution for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance needs.

    During my tenure, I increased the capability of the Manta UAS from line-of-sight (LOS) to beyond-line-of-sight though proper systems engineering and integration of an Iridium C2 link.
    NBN Co Ka-band, High-Throughput Broadband Satellites
    System Capacity And Availability Lead · The NBN Co 1A and NBN Co 1B satellites will be part of the high-speed broadband service to rural and remote… · More areas of Australia. The satellites will be operated by NBN Co Limited (NBN Co), which was established to implement the Australian government policy initiative of providing access to high-speed broadband to every household and business in the country via an integrated national network that will use fiber, fixed wireless, and satellite technologies. NBN Co 1A and 1B are both Ka-band, high-throughput broadband satellites that use multiple spot beams in an advanced design that tailors capacity to Australia’s vastly distributed population. When launched, the satellites will help bridge the digital divide, providing service to some of the most remote places in Australia, as well as its coastal islands and external territories including Norfolk Island, Cocos Island, Christmas Island, and Macquarie Island in the Antarctic.
    Al Yah 3 Satellite
    Systems Capacity and Availability Lead · The Al Yah 3 Ka-band high throughput satellite will provide two-way communications services
    to facilitate… · More high-speed delivery of data to end-user applications such as
    broadband Internet and corporate networking as well as IP backhaul for
    telecommunications service providers. Using the Al Yah 3 spacecraft, Yahsat
    will provide its services to Africa and Brazil.

    Al Yah 3 is a planned Ka-band communication satellite by the Al Yah Satellite Communications Company (Yahsat), a wholly owned subsidiary of Mubadala Development Company.
