Research Scientist

Kim Eccleston

BE, PhD

Kim was awarded a Bachelor of Engineering (Electronic Engineering) with distinction from the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology in 1986, and obtained his PhD (Electrical Engineering) from the University of Queensland in 1991.

From 1990 to 1992, Kim was a Research Scientist at the Defence Science and Technology Organisation in Adelaide. Kim began his academic career in 1992; first at the National University of Singapore (1992-2004) and then at the University of Canterbury (2005-2014). He taught a wide range of subjects, including analogue and digital electronics, microwave electronics, electromagnetics, statistics, and reliability engineering. Through 2014 and 2015 Kim was focused solely on research at the University of Canterbury.

Kim joined Lincoln Agritech in 2016. He conducts research in the general domain of microwave technology and microwave electromagnetics. He is currently developing negative-refractive-index metamaterial lenses.

Kim has published over 30 refereed journal papers and presented, or co-authored, over 80 papers at international conferences. His 2003 paper in the IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques on compact couplers is in the top 0.5% of papers of that journal ranked by citation.

Kim was the Technical Program Co-Chair of the IEEE 2011 Asia-Pacific Microwave Conference and was a member of the IEEE 1999 Asia-Pacific Microwave Conference organising committee.

Kim’s research interests include:

  • Microwave negative-refractive-index (NRI) metamaterials
  • NRI lens imaging systems and image deconvolution
  • Substate-integrated-waveguides
  • Deembedding of microwave devices and materials
  • Spectral domain analysis of NRI lenses
  • Electromagnetic 3D modelling and simulation
