Jayson P. Van Marter (Student Member, IEEE) received the B.S. (summa cum laude) and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from The University of Texas at Dallas, Richardson, TX, USA, in 2020 and 2024, respectively. In 2020, he developed a USRP softwaredefined radio testbed engine as a TxACE Intern. In 2023, he developed algorithms for automotive in-cabin sensing using millimeter-wave radar as an Intern with Texas Instruments, Dallas, TX, USA. He has been with Texas Instruments Radar Systems and Algorithms research and development since 2024. His current research interests include real-time embedded systems, localization, millimeter-wave radar, terahertz radar, SAR imaging algorithms, and radar-human sensing. Dr. Van Marter received the TxACE Promising Researcher Award in May 2020, the Jonsson School Excellence in Education Doctoral Fellowship in August 2020, the Jan P. Van der Ziel Fellowship in April 2023, and the TxACE Symposium Best Poster Award in October 2023.
Anand G. Dabak (Fellow, IEEE) received the bachelor’s degree from Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Mumbai, India, in 1987, and the master’s and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from Rice University, Houston, TX, USA, in 1989 and 1992, respectively. He joined the DSP Systems Research and Development Center, Texas Instruments, Dallas, TX, USA, as a Member of the Technical Staff working on wireless systems, in 1995. Until 2011, he worked on algorithms, standards, and systems issues related to communications, namely, 3GPP, WCDMA, LTE, UWB, powerline communications (PLC), and modem development on TI processors. From 2011 to 2019, he worked with Kilby Labs, Texas Instruments, on ultrasonic flow metering for residential water and gas metering. From 2019 to 2021, he developed localization solutions for Bluetooth low energy systems using angle of arrival (AoA) and employed super resolution techniques for high accuracy distance measurement (HADM) phase-based techniques. Since 2021, he has been working in the radar group on applying signal processing techniques to radar applications
