Andy Howard, Senior Applications Engineer, has been with Keysight since 1985. He graduated from U.C. Berkeley, B.S. E.E., 1983, and M.S. E.E., 1985. He was a visiting researcher for one year in Japan while a graduate student, and is fluent in Japanese. He has published more than 20 magazine articles, HP or Agilent seminar papers, and application notes. He has created hundreds of ADS examples, and is currently focused primarily on various power amplifier simulations (load pull, envelope tracking, optimisations, etc.) He has also worked on several switched-mode power supply simulations.
