Angle-of-Arrival Estimation Using Radar Interferometry

Dr. E. Jeff Holder is a Senior Member of IEEE and is currently the President of Propagation Research Associates, Inc. (PRA), a small business founded to develop innovative radar technology. He previously served as a Principle Research Scientist and Chief Scientist in the Sensors and Electromagnetic Applications Laboratory of the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI), Georgia Institute of Technology, where he was also an adjunct Professor in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering. At GTRI he supported several Government programs that involved interferometer radar development. He received the B.A. degree in mathematics from Florida State University in1969, and the M.A. and Ph.D. in mathematics from Duke University in 1978 and 1980.
