During the Ph.D work, extensive studies were carried out on Radio climatology over Southern India for Radiowave propagation and developed a monostatic SODAR with the help of NPL, New Delhi and studied the PBL characteristics and correlated with radio propagation and fading of the signals. A similar SODAR was installed by me in Antarctica during 1990-91.

After Ph.D, studies were conducted on Atmospheric sciences using Indian MST Radar especially on turbulence parameters and gravity waves and also on mobile and Radio communications. Extensive studies on “Digital Video Broadcasting” were carried out for two years in Nanyang Technological University, Singapore during 2012-2014.

Involved in developing research activities in the area of Atmospheric sciences by nurturing the UGC-SVU Centre for MST Radar applications, which is now recognized as a Major National Facility at SV University and an Advanced Centre for Atmospheric Sciences by ISRO. An M.Tech program on “Space Technology” was carried out with the help of ISRO.

Many students are working jointly at SVU in collaboration with NARL. The state of the art “Meteor Radar” facility was established for the first time in the Indian Universities. A Lidar & HPC facilities were also augmented to strengthen the research activities.

Published more than 150 research publications and guided 41 students for Ph.D. Several research projects were completed and many are ongoing.

Through the UGC-SVU centre, facilities were extended to user scientists from different Universities across the country. Several workshops/ winter schools were conducted to promote atmospheric sciences research. NSSS-2012 was organized successfully and 104th Indian Science Congress organized during 3-7 January 2017, witnessed the organizational capability of me as an Organizing secretary.
