Mikhail Taranov - CV Electronics engineering, fiber-optic engineering, software engineering, scientific research

I am a professional in electronics and fiber optic sensing, working in the field as a lead design engineer for the last 12 years. Skillful in developing designs of electronic and fiber optic modules and writing software collaboratively on teams and as a standalone developer. The scope of my scientific research encompasses distributed fiber optic sensing with wavelength-scanning optical time domain reflectometry (WS-OTDR) and phase-sensitive optical time domain reflectometry (Φ-OTDR) being of particular interest
