Matthew A. Morgan is a tenured scientific researcher with the National Radio Astronomy Observatory, specializing in advanced instrumentation and novel concept development for radio astronomy, spacecraft telecommunications, and remote sensing. He received his B.S. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Virginia in 1999, and his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from the California Institute of Technology in 2001 and 2003, respectively.
Matt has published over 60 papers in academic journals and holds seventeen patents in the areas of high-frequency electronics, sensors, and digital data transmission. He has written several groundbreaking textbooks, including:
- Reflectionless Filters, describing his pioneering work on novel electronic filter topologies that have theoretically perfect impedance-match at all frequencies,
- Principles of RF and Microwave Design, a comprehensive resource for high-frequency circuit design, and
- Relativistic Field Theory for Microwave Engineers, which explores the fundamental but often overlooked connection between Maxwell's equations and special relativity.
