Communications engineering, phase- and spatial-stabilisation system development

University of Western Australia

Skevos Karpathakis completed his PhD at the University of Western Australia, with his project contributing to the future of optical ground station networks in Australia by integrating optical communications systems into phase-and-amplitude-stabilised free-space laser ranges. Karpathakis’ work was conducted with the Astrophotonics group at the International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR), where he was employed as an electronic engineer prior to commencing his PhD. Before joining ICRAR, Karpathakis worked in product development in the smart city space. He previously completed a Master of Professional Engineering at UWA and led a team of students to participate in the Formula SAE competition. Skevos is currently working as an Electronics and Harware Engineer at L3Harris Technologies.
