Biography
S. M. Abbas received the B.Sc. degree in Electrical (Telecommunication) Engineering from the COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Islamabad, Pakistan, in 2006, and the M.Sc. degree in Computer Engineering from the Center for Advanced Studies in Engineering (CASE), Islamabad, Pakistan, in 2009. He has been awarded with the Research Productivity Award by COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, in 2009 and 2012, respectively. In 2012, he has been awarded the International Macquarie University Research Excellence Scholarship (iMQRES) and in 2013, he has been awarded the CSIRO Postgraduate Scholarship. In 2015, he completed his Ph.D. degree in Electronics Engineering with the Centre for Electromagnetic and Antenna Engineering (CELANE) at Macquarie University, North Ryde, N.S.W., Australia. He has been a Transmission Engineer for Alcatel-Lucent Pakistan and a Lecturer with the Department of Electrical Engineering, COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Islamabad, Pakistan. His research interests include High Impedance Surfaces (HIS), Frequency Selective Surfaces (FSS), Carbon Nanotube (CNT) yarns, and the development of antennas for Ultra-Wideband (UWB) and Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) applications including Reconfigurable antennas, Embroidered antennas, Textile Antennas, Carbon Nanotube and Polymer based Antennas, Implantable Antennas, UWB Antennas for Interference Mitigation/Band Rejection/Filtering, and antennas with controlled radiation patterns.
