Khanh Dai Pham is a Vietnamese-born American aerospace engineer. He is noted for his work[2][3][4][5][6] in statistical optimal control theory, game-theoretic operations research of military satellite communications, space control autonomy, and space domain awareness and the government leadership in innovation ecosystem and coalition of government agencies, small business and industry. He is a Fellow of the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL),[7] the National Academy of Inventors (NAI),[8] the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET),[8] the Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE),[9][10] the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS),[11] the International Association for the Advancement of Space Safety (IAASS), and the Royal Astronomical Society (RAS). He is not only a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE),[12][13][14] the American Astronautical Society (AAS),[15] and the Asia-Pacific Artificial Intelligence Association (AAIA)[16] but also an Associate Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) and the Royal Institute of Navigation (RIN).

At the Air Force Research Laboratory/Space Vehicles Directorate,[17] Pham's research, development and acquisition activities have involved in game-theoretic operations research[18] with potential space domain awareness, space control,[19] military satellite communications,[20] satellite navigation applications.[21] As an adjunct research professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of New Mexico, he investigates on a range of topics on stochastic control and satellite communications.[22] He has brought the broader services in stimulating small business innovation, meeting the Air Force and DoD R&D needs, broadening participation in innovation and entrepreneurship, and boosting commercialization derived from Air Force and DoD R&D.[23] Pham's published works span in more than 300 books, book chapters, peer-reviewed journal articles and conference proceedings, including the technical areas of space domain awareness, space control,[24] cognitive satellite radios, resilient satellite navigation, dynamic sensor resource allocation,[24] and game-theoretic operations research.[25][26][27]
