Kamal Sarabandi (Persian: کمال سرابندی) is an Iranian-American scientist and the Fawwaz T. Ulaby Distinguished University Professor of EECS and the Rufus S. Teesdale endowed Professor of Engineering at the University of Michigan, where he teaches and conducts research on the science and technology of microwave and millimeter wave radar remote sensing, wireless technology, electromagnetic wave propagation and scattering, metamaterials, antenna miniaturization, and nano antennas.

Professor Kamal Sarabandi has had a distinguished and exemplary career as an educator and entrepreneur, focusing on the field of applied electromagnetic and microwave remote sensing.

His pioneering work on design of polarimetric radars, development of sophisticated electromagnetic scattering models for natural targets and their inverse solutions for monitoring vegetation, soil moisture, and snow has had important implications today for better understanding of processes that lead to global warming.

The Radiation Laboratory in its current form was established in 1952 and has played a pivotal role in the development and advancement of the field of Applied Electromagnetic for more than six decades.
