The Author
Andy Harrison received a bachelor of science, master of science, and doctor of philosophy in electrical engineering from the University of Mississippi in 1994, 1996, and 1999, respectively. His studies focused on electromagnetic theory, microwave measurements, antenna analysis and design, acoustics, and computational electromagnetics. His graduate research dealt with the use of wavelet-like basis functions in the finite element solution of partial differential equations. He has authored several papers in areas of computational electromagnetics and global optimization techniques and taught short courses in radar system design, simulation, and analysis.
Andy served as an associate editor for the Applied Computational Electromagnetics Society and the Southeastern Symposium on System Theory. He is a senior member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers and served as vice chair as well as education chair for the Mississippi section. He also served on the Electrical Engineering Industrial Advisory Board. He is a member of the electrical engineering honor society, Eta Kappa Nu (Epsilon Omega Chapter), the scientific research honor society, Sigma Xi, and the Antenna Measurements Techniques Association.
Andy received recognition for his outstanding performance while supporting both the Ground-based Midcourse Defense X-Band Radar System Engineering Division and the Sea-Based X-Band Radar Requirements and Analysis team. He was also recognized for his significant contributions to the Missile Defense Agency’s Project Hercules.
