Dr. Chandni Bajaj

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering at SRM Institute of Science and Technology, NCR Campus. I hold a Ph.D. in Electronics and Communication Engineering from the Faculty of Technology, University of Delhi, with my research focused on resonant and metasurface-based antennas for RFID applications. My research interests include RFID reader antennas, metasurface-integrated antennas, AMC reflectors, 3D antenna configurations, wearable antennas, and wireless communication systems. I have 11 research publications, including papers published in IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation and the IEEE Journal of Radio Frequency Identification. I am also an inventor of an Indian granted patent for a 3-D RFID reader antenna system with cubic metasurface backing. Before moving into academia, I worked as a Software Engineer at Accenture and gained teaching experience at NSUT and GGSIPU. My experience across industry, research, and teaching has helped me develop a practical and interdisciplinary approach to engineering education. Alongside my technical and academic interests, I am passionate about communication, personal growth, mentoring, and empowering people through knowledge and positive thinking. I aspire to build a career that brings together research, teaching, leadership, and motivational communication, while creating a meaningful impact on the people I work with.
