STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
I always had a keen desire to do electrical engineering but my under graduation degree started with majors in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. During my course of study I had developed love for Physics and Mathematics. I would spend many hours solving complex equations, dealing with numerical based Physics Problems. I got more inclined towards solving more physics problems because it would provide me with a clear picture and a better understanding to a derived model. For example why can’t an electron exist inside the nucleus of an atom? The uncertainty principle was better understood when I solved a problem on particle confinement.
My interest towards applied physics grew stronger and stronger with time and later I took a decision to do Masters in physics with majors in Electronics. This was the time when I was able to set foundation in Electronics. My course included the core subjects of physics and Electronics both which was the best part of my degree. During my first year of Masters, My course featured analog Electronics and Power electronics; to understand these courses better I took a short duration training to seek learning in electronics from the basics. I opted to do a short duration project on to learn the working of a Switched Mode Power Supply. Till high school, I had knowledge of working of a power supply. But this was time where I came across the working of a SMPS and its vast applications from personal computers to consumer electronics. In the second year of my masters my major subjects included microprocessors, microcontrollers, digital signal processing, VLSI. To bring about more understanding of the courses and to learn the real application of microcontrollers, I decided to design a working...

...patches which gave better results. All of the fabrication was done by me using the method of chemical etching. The results of the fabricated model were compared experimentally by using vector network analyzer to those obtained from simulations using the simulation software.
Now I feel strongly to carry out my research work more efficiently in a group, require an exposure, and a nice microstrip antenna fabrication and characterization facility. I got excited looking at the research areas, faculty and lab at the Ohio state university, the research experience I have gained and the techniques and skills I have learned so far will be of immense help in carrying out work in Electromagnetic and Antennas in this university. It would be a great opportunity to be a part of this university as a PhD student and set a foundation of my career to become a future scientist.
