William J. Pratt Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering

I am a radio frequency integrated circuit design engineer and teacher of analog/RF integrated circuit design. My focus is on developing optimal RF ASIC solutions for communication systems through innovative, low cost, and low power circuit and architectural chip designs using standard and advanced integrated technologies.

I also research analysis techniques for accessing the effects of nonlinear distortion on communication circuits and systems. My goal is to provide insightful and practical assessment of nonlinear phenomena through behavioral modeling of nonlinear circuits and applying statistical and signal processing techniques to investigate power spectrum, spectral regrowth, autocorrelation, SNR, error vector magnitude, rho, etc.
