Power converters are an essential component of many electrical systems, from a smartphone or electric car to the electric grid. These devices flip current from AC to DC or DC to AC, modulate electric frequency, stabilize voltages, and generally make sure electricity is in a form usable by our electronics.
She dedicated the rest of her undergraduate career to power systems, electrical machines and power electronics. That interest led her to UW-Madison and the Wisconsin Electric Machines and Power Electronics Consortium (WEMPEC) research group for her graduate work. At UW-Madison, advised by ECE Professor and WEMPEC Director Giri Venkataramanan, Gupta began her research into power converters.
After earning her PhD, she spent a year at Ford Motor Company, working on electric vehicles as part of the research and advanced engineering group, designing electrified powertrain systems. In 2020, Gupta joined Portland State University in Oregon as an assistant professor.
PhD student Araz Saleki also will be joining Gupta at UW-Madison. Saleki is working on a National Science Foundation-funded project to design very-high-density and efficient power converters for integration of battery energy storage systems into the electric grid.
"I did research and it helped me get accustomed to the way a team functions while pursuing research in a organization. Not just research itself, but interacting with my research colleagues at UB gave me a glimpse of culture and work environment in the US."
I was always very fascinated with so many embedded and wireless devices around me. Right from a mobile phone to a computer, majority of the consumer devices and automobiles have electronic operation which was very interesting to observe and then work with them. This fascination and an ambition to develop something innovative really turned into a serious thought which convinced me to study electrical engineering.
I was inclined towards concentrating on wireless system as my major during graduate studies. This was one the main reasons why I selected University at Buffalo (UB). University at Buffalo has really good and diverse courses in the wireless communication domain of Electrical Engineering department. What really struck me about this department is the long string of professors with great teaching and research experience in their domain. Moreover, the UB 2020 program really looked very impressive and gave me a sense that I really belong to UB and there will not be a better place for me than UB to start with my graduate studies.
My area of interest at UB was wireless communication and more so in Nano-networks operating at terahertz frequency band. I think UB has a tremendous team of professors and scholars in Wireless Communication department within EE. Additionally, there has been a great deal of research going on which is really the way to go if we were to make advancement in this field in future.
Apart from the array of points that I have mentioned about UB Electrical Engineering department regarding the professors and research, I think what makes UB EE special is the way faculty and staff made every effort to ensure that international student like me felt at home while pursuing my studies. Another notable fact about EE department is its brand new building (Barbara and Jack Davis Hall) with all modern facilities including state of the art research labs and various conference rooms to meet demands of small to large number of audiences.
I must say one of the best experiences I had during my time at UB has to be when I could defend my master thesis successfully in front of experienced professors of my department. Another proud moment which I will cherish for the rest of my life is during my convocation ceremony when I wore my academic regalia and received my graduate certificate from my departmental dean.
I currently reside in Michigan where I am a Research Engineer in the Advanced Multiplexing and Electrical Architecture group at Ford Motor Company. We develop high speed networking protocols for future concepts like autonomous cars. I definitely feel my time as a student at UB had a strong influence on me when I started working with Ford. Considering the fact that I did research, it helped me get accustomed to the way a team functions while pursuing research in a organization. Not just research itself, but interacting with my research colleagues at UB gave me a glimpse of culture and work environment in the US.
Gupta received a Bachelor of Technology in electrical engineering from IIT Kanpur, India; a Master of Science in EECS from University of California, Berkeley; and a PhD in electrical engineering from Stanford University. He currently holds INRIA International Chair at the French international research institute in Rennes, Bretagne Atlantique. Gupta is a Fellow of the IEEE and the ACM.
Vijay Gupta, professor of electrical engineering and an ND Energy faculty affiliate at the University of Notre Dame, has received the 2018 Antonio Ruberti Young Research Award from the IEEE Control Systems Society. Established in 2005, this award recognizes young researchers for their distinguished cutting-edge contributions to the theory or application of systems and control, honoring the memory of Antonio Ruberti, professor and pioneer of automatic control in Italy.
Complete details of the study can be found at: IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control (Volume: 64, Issue: 5, May 2019. Other contributors include Donya Ghavidel Dobakhshari, graduate student in the Department of Electrical Engineering.
