About

Jaibir Sharma is a leading researcher in the field of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), with a specific focus on piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducers (pMUTs) and their application in high-precision sensing. His major contributions center on revolutionizing ultrasonic ranging technology, particularly for close-range, high-resolution detection. Sharma’s pioneering work demonstrated that operating pMUTs below their resonance frequency yields a significantly wider bandwidth, enabling unprecedented accuracy in distance measurement for robotic systems and industrial machinery. His most cited paper, "High Resolution, High Frequency Ultrasonic Ranging in Air with pMUTs" (2021), has garnered 23 citations, establishing a foundational technique in the field. Building on this, his 2024 study on "Close Range and High-Resolution Detection of Vibration by Ultrasonic Wave Using Silicon-on-Nothing PMUTs" introduces a novel cross-correlation method for time-of-flight ranging, achieving exceptional vibration detection at close distances. With a total of 29 citations across his key works, Sharma’s research is driving the next generation of compact, high-performance ultrasonic sensors, positioning him as a key innovator in MEMS-based sensing technologies.
