CV

Summary   Motivated, innovative and experienced (5+ years) antenna/RF engineer in the field of research and design; capable of analytical and numerical analysis using various electronic design automation software and object-oriented programming languages; experience in both academia and industry; author of many scientic publications and patents; measurement experience in the eld of antennas (using Vector Network Analyzer, Time Domain Reection scope, anechoic chamber); prototyping experience using milling machine; European Union citizen; experienced working in an international environment; keen on details and well-organized; able to plan and prioritize work and manage the time accordingly; versatile, flexible and trained to handle work underpressure.   Employment   (February 2009 - present) Full-time research assistant (ger. wiss. Ang.") of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Werner L. Schroeder at RheinMain University of Applied Sciences (Russelsheim, Germany) Industry funded project (OPTION N.V.; Leuven, Belgium): Advanced systematic design of multiport antennas for LTE-enabled USB dongles (ADVANT)   Integration of multiport antennas in a small volume oered by mobile wireless terminals (User Equipment), e.g. mobile wireless modems, laptops, etc., was the goal of ADVANT project. Achieving simultaneously high total per port eciencies and high isolation between antenna ports while covering multiple frequency bands using electrical switching were the most challenging aspects of the project. New systematic techniques for design of electrically switchable and electrically tunable small 2-port MIMO antennas for USB dongles were developed and thoroughly documented. The project resulted in four patents and number of high-quality publications in various international conferences and journals.   (December 2008) Test engineer at Telecom-Service (Gdansk, Poland) Optical Master Unit (OMU) testing for Axell Wireless (Stockholm, Sweden).   (August - September 2008) Project for CENPORT (Gdansk, Poland) Design of dual-cone wideband antenna for air force/civilian ATC communication system.   Education   (February 2009 - present) Duisburg-Essen University (Duisburg, Germany) Ph.D. dissertation (ger.
