About

Nonchanutt Chudpooti is an emerging researcher whose work spans millimeter-wave engineering, wireless communications, and robotics-oriented sensing systems. Based at the University of Leeds, her research has made notable contributions to the design and fabrication of Hollow Substrate Integrated Waveguides (HSIWs), with her pioneering 2021 paper on 3D rapid-prototyped HSIWs operating in the 21–31 GHz range garnering 20 citations and opening new avenues for affordable 5G, IoT, and robotic communication hardware. Building on this foundation, her 2024 work on Curved HSIWs extended these capabilities to non-planar millimeter-wave applications, addressing emerging demands in radar, imaging, and wireless power transfer. Chudpooti has also made meaningful contributions to underground robotic systems through the UK's Pipebots project, developing optical wireless communication techniques and multiwavelength sensing methods for water-filled plastic pipelines—work that carries direct implications for infrastructure inspection and maintenance. Her LED-based optical transmitter driver research further demonstrates her versatility across photonics and embedded systems. Collectively, her portfolio reflects a researcher committed to translating advanced electromagnetic and optical engineering into practical, real-world robotic and communications solutions, establishing her as a rising voice in applied wireless and sensing research.
