Anthony Parker started work with VHF radio and microwave systems, and satellite earth-station installations. In 1986, he began research in design techniques and circuit models for gallium arsenide microwave technology at The University of Sydney. This was in collaboration with the Division of Radiophysics of Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific’ and Industrial Research Organization.
He joined Macquarie University, Sydney in 1990 and is now Head of the Electronics Department. He has a continuing project on pulsed characterization of microwave devices and design of low distortion communications circuits. He has consulted with several companies including M/A-COM, MA and Agilent Technologies, CA. He has developed accurate circuit simulation techniques, such as used in FET and HEMT models. His recent work has been in the area of intermodulation in broadband circuits and systems, including a major project with Mimix Broadband, Inc.
Professor Parker has authored or co-authored over 120 publications. He is a Senior Member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers and a member of the Institution of Telecommunications and Electronic Engineers, Australia and a committee member of the IEEE AP/MTT NSW Local Chapter. He directs the Collaborative Nonlinear Electronics Research Facility at Macquarie University.
