RESEARCH IN THE ELECTROMAGNETICS LABORATORY (DIRECTOR B. NOTAROS)
http://www.engr.colostate.edu/~notaros/research/research.htm#EM_Lab
Research expertise, interests, contributions, initiatives, and future plans of the Electromagnetics
Laboratory at Colorado State University, ECE Department, are in the area of electromagnetics, and in its
crossings with other areas of science and engineering. Our current research activities span a very broad
range of exciting and emerging topics in computational electromagnetics; modeling and numerical
methods; antennas; scattering; metamaterials; cyber-physical systems; uncertainty quantification;
atmospheric/meteorological electromagnetics; radar meteorology; characterization of snow and rain;
surface and radar precipitation measurements; image processing; RF/optical instrumentation
development; bioelectromagnetics; RF design for magnetic resonance imaging at high and ultrahigh
magnetic fields; direct electromagnetic coupling system for orthopaedic diagnostics; telemedicine system
for orthopaedic applications; and electromagnetics education.
Our main contributions to computational electromagnetics (CEM) are in higher order CEM techniques
based on the method of moments (MoM), surface integral equation (SIE) approach, volume integral
equation (VIE) formulation, finite element method (FEM), ray tracing (RT), physical optics (PO), domain
decomposition method (DDM), diakoptics, hybrid CEM methods, adjoint methods, a posteriori error
estimation, adaptive mesh refinement, uncertainty quantification, sensitivity analysis, and general surface
meshing methods, as applied to modeling and design of antennas, scatterers, and RF/microwave and
optical devices and systems.
Some current projects deal with
(a) adaptive mesh refinement and uncertainty quantification for RF Analysis and Validation Engineering
Software (RAVEnS);
(b) development of uncertainty quantification and design approaches and solutions for CREATE/
SENTRi;
(c) adjoint based error estimation and adaptive mesh refinement for computational electromagnetics;
(d) refinement-by-superposition approach to adaptive fully anisotropic hp-refinement in computational
electromagnetics;
(e) general surface meshing in CEM using iterative adaptive refinement;
(f) advanced ray tracing techniques for indoor and outdoor propagation modeling;
(g) accurate characterization of winter precipitation (snow) using multi-angle snowflake camera
(MASC), visual hull for reconstruction of 3D hydrometeor shapes, higher order CEM scattering
methods, and fully polarimetric data from CSU-CHILL (S-band and X-band) and NCAR S-Pol
radars;

performance computing (HPC) platforms;
(n) observational analysis, modeling, and development of a statistically robust, generalized process
evaluation framework of bin and bulk microphysics in winter precipitation using NASA GV and
GPM-DPR data;
(o) modeling and measurements of EM propagation in underground mines and enabling smart
underground mining with an integrated context-aware wireless cyber-physical framework;
(p) development of the optical/electronic/laser-sensing/image-processing Snowflake Measurement and
Analysis System (SMAS);
(q) RF/microwave applicator system development for biomedical applications;

Electromagnetics Laboratory, CSU Engineering Building B110, includes a completely computerized and
motorized six-axis 10 MHz–50 GHz antenna and scattering test system (three-axis spherical positioning
system and three-axis planar positioning system), completely built by students, in a fully anechoic and
shielded chamber and a vector network analyzer system (PNA), with time-domain option, oscilloscope,
power generators, pulse generator, and other RF equipment.
MASCRAD SNOW OBSERVATION/ANALYSIS FIELD SITE (PI B. NOTAROS)
http://www.engr.colostate.edu/~notaros/research/research.htm#MASCRAD
As an example of the interdisciplinary activities of the CSU Electromagnetics Laboratory, one of our
most exciting current projects is the MASCRAD (MASC + Radar) project, the principal goal of which is
to establish a novel approach to characterization of winter precipitation and modeling of associated
polarimetric radar observables, with a longer-term goal to significantly improve the radar-based
quantitative precipitation estimation in stronger, more hazardous, winter events. Our microphysical
characteristics studies of snow are based on a synergistic use of optical instrumentation, image
processing, scattering computations, and radar analyses. Overall, there is great need and interest for
advances in characterization, classification, and quantification of snow – currently the least understood
component of the global water cycle. We have built and established the MASCRAD Field Site for in-situ
and remote sensing observations and microphysical characteristics analysis of winter precipitation at the
Easton Valley View Airport, south of Greeley, in La Salle, Colorado. The ground instrumentation at the
site includes a multi-angle snowflake camera (MASC), 2D-video disdrometer (2DVD), precipitation

occurrence sensor system (POSS), meteorological particle spectrometer (MPS), Pluvio precipitation
gauge, VAISALA weather station, and NCAR Mesonet sensors, all installed inside a 2/3-scaled double
fence intercomparison reference (DFIR) wind shield. Surface measurements are augmented by the data
from radiosondes which are released during intensive operational periods using the collocated NCAR
EOL GAUS (GPS Advanced Upper-Air System) Sounding System (in the 2014/2015 winter campaign)
and Center for Severe Weather Research (CSWR) Sounding System (in the 2015/2016 winter campaign).
The MASCRAD site operates (at ranges of 13 km and 33 km, respectively) under the umbrella of two
state-of-the-art polarimetric (dual-polarization) research weather radars, CSU-CHILL Radar (both S-band
and X-band) and NCAR SPOL Radar, with high spatial and temporal resolutions and special MASCRAD
scan strategies. It is supported by excellent geometrical and image processing and scattering modeling
and computing capabilities, and is one of the currently best instrumented and most sophisticated field
sites for winter precipitation measurements and analysis in the nation.
As an example of our international collaborations, we are collaborating with Korea Meteorological
Administration and Kyungpook National University, Republic of Korea, in preparation, operation, and
post-analysis of the International Collaborative Experiments for Pyeongchang 2018 Olympic &
Paralympic Winter Games, Korea, ICE-POP 2018, which has been one of the largest snow observation
and analysis field campaigns so far, and has involved several cutting-edge radars, aircraft measurements,
ships, satellite observations, many advanced ground optical disdrometers, etc.

ELECTROMAGNETICS AND ENGINEERING EDUCATION RESEARCH
(1) New Textbook “Electromagnetics” with PEARSON Prentice Hall. B. Notaros is the author or
coauthor of several textbooks in electromagnetics and in fundamentals of electrical engineering (basic
circuits and fields). Most importantly, he published a comprehensive textbook “Electromagnetics”
(840 pages) for undergraduates with PEARSON Prentice Hall, in June 2010. The new book
introduces many unique pedagogical features not present in any of the many existing undergraduate
electromagnetics textbooks [there are an extremely large number (~30) of quite different textbooks
for undergraduate electromagnetics available and “active” – perhaps more than for any other
discipline in science and engineering]. In specific, it provides several nonstandard theoretically and
practically important chapters and sections, new style and approaches to presenting challenging topics
and abstract EM phenomena, numerous modern supplements, original teaching and learning tools,
and some unique recipes and pedagogical guides for electromagnetic field computation and problem
solving. It is meant as an “ultimate resource” for undergraduate electromagnetics.
Book website: http://www.pearsonhighered.com/product?ISBN=0132433842
(2) New Textbook “MATLAB
®
-Based Electromagnetics” with PEARSON Prentice Hall (416
pages), published in May 2013. This is a self-contained textbook that can be used either as a
supplement to any available electromagnetics text or as an independent resource. Essentially, the
book unifies two themes: electromagnetics using MATLAB and MATLAB for electromagnetics;
namely, it presents and explains electromagnetics using MATLAB on one side and develops and
Branislav M. Notaros, Curriculum Vitae
13
discusses MATLAB for electromagnetics on the other. As opposed to other available
electromagnetics texts that feature some use of MATLAB, the new book effectively “implements”
literally all topics and concepts in undergraduate electromagnetic fields and waves, from the ones in
electrostatics to those in antennas, in MATLAB. This is by far the most complete and ambitious
attempt to use MATLAB in undergraduate (and overall) electromagnetics education.
Book website: http://www.pearsonhighered.com/product?ISBN=0132857944
(3) New Textbook “Conceptual Electromagnetics” with CRC Press, Taylor and Francis, LLC (568
pages), published in July 2017. This is a standalone textbook on Conceptual Electromagnetics that
presents and explains the entire EM solely using conceptual questions interwoven with the theoretical
narrative and basic equations. It combines fundamental theory and a unique and comprehensive
collection of as many as 888 conceptual questions and problems in EM. Conceptual questions and
problems of this scope and intent are completely new in EM area, and in practically all ECE areas.
Also, this is one of the most complete and ambitious attempts to use them in science and engineering
education overall. This book resonates very well with modern learner-centered pedagogies and
practices that have recently gained a lot of attention by educators in science and engineering, and are
paving their way as a preferred mode, or a major component, of class delivery and instruction.
https://www.crcpress.com/Conceptual-Electromagnetics/Notaros/p/book/9781498770668
(4) Conceptual Questions in Electromagnetics, 160 pages, an e-supplement to the new textbook
“Electromagnetics” published by PEARSON Prentice Hall. This collection provides 500 Conceptual
Questions – these are multiple-choice questions that focus on the core concepts of the material,
requiring conceptual reasoning and understanding rather than calculations. Pedagogically, they are an
invaluable resource. They can be given for homework and on exams, and are also ideal for interactive
in-class questions, explorations, and discussions (usually referred to as active teaching and learning),
for student-to-student interaction and students teaching one another (so-called peer instruction,
initiated by Eric Mazur in introductory physics), and for team work and exchange of ideas
(collaborative teaching/learning). In addition, conceptual questions are perfectly suited for class
assessments, as partial and final assessment instruments for individual topics at different points in the
course and for the entire class.
http://www.pearsonhighered.com/notaros/
(5) Computer Exercises in Electromagnetics Using MATLAB, 350 pages, an e-book (separate ISBN),
supplement to the new textbook “Electromagnetics” published by PEARSON Prentice Hall. There are
a total of 478 MATLAB exercises, to supplement problems and conceptual questions. The Exercises
include 135 tutorials with detailed completely worked out solutions merged with listings of
MATLAB codes (m files), 58 movies developed and played in MATLAB, 156 figures generated in
MATLAB, 16 graphical user interfaces (GUIs) built in MATLAB, etc. Assignments of computer
exercises in parallel with traditional problems can help students develop a stronger intuition and a
deeper understanding of electromagnetics and find it more attractive and likable. Moreover, this
approach, requiring MATLAB programming, actively challenges and involves the student, providing
additional benefit as compared to a passive computer demonstration.
http://www.pearsonhighered.com/notaros/
(6) Electromagnetics Concept Inventory (EMCI), an assessment tool for measuring students’
understanding of fundamental concepts in electromagnetics. This work was supported by the
Engineering Education Program of the National Science Foundation, through the NSF Foundation
Coalition grant. The EMCI is especially important in light of the new accreditation standards in
engineering – ABET 2000 Criteria (the key word in these criteria is ‘assessment’). (A copy of the
EMCI can be obtained upon request, with proper identification, at notaros@colostate.edu).

(7) Assessment Methodologies for Engineering Education – participated in several national meetings
and multi-university research studies devoted to conceptual assessment instruments and other
assessment techniques, as well as curricular reforms, in engineering education. Participated in
organization and delivery of panel sessions on the tools for assessing conceptual understanding in
engineering sciences at the ASEE/IEEE Frontiers in Education Conferences and the Concept
Inventory Developers Meetings, gave talks and has papers on concept inventory assessment
instruments for electromagnetics education.
Also, participated (by invitation) in 2014 Reinvention Center National Conference, November 14-15,
2014, Arlington, Virginia. The Reinvention Center’s mission is “Advancing Undergraduate Education
in America’s Research Universities.”
(8) “Creativity Thread Champion” for the NSF Revolutionizing Engineering Departments (RED)
Project. B. Notaros is one of the principal contributors to the five-year NSF Revolutionizing
Engineering Departments (RED) Project in the ECE Department at CSU (PI: Anthony Maciejewski,
ECE Dept. Head). As one of the only six engineering and computer science departments in the first
cohort of NSF RED awardees, we are implementing changes that reimagine the roles of the faculty,
moving away from teaching courses in isolation to an integrated, collaborative structure. Key faculty
leaders are assigned as “Thread Champions” to interweave Foundations, Creativity, and Professional
Formation threads throughout the program, while working with fellow faculty to continue fostering
deep knowledge of the discipline and with “Integration Specialists” to synthesize content and
illustrate how fundamental concepts are interrelated. These efforts span the entire undergraduate
experience, with special attention to the critical technical core of the junior year. Prof. Notaros is the
“Creativity Thread Champion” for the RED Project. He also is a leader in developing and
implementing electromagnetics learning studio modules (LSMs) and in knowledge integration (KI) of
EM LSM concepts with those from signals/systems and electronics, as an essential part of the RED
revolution in the ECE Department. After the scalability has been investigated and enhanced, we
anticipate that this project and its outcomes will potentially have a transformative impact on the ECE
and engineering education globally.
