		My research 
		interests lie in the general field of wireless communications and 
		networks. This includes  
		cooperative diversity, 
		cognitive radio, MIMO systems, multiuser diversity, 
		error control coding, coded 
		modulation, adaptive modulation, iterative receivers, channel estimation, OFDMA, 
		spread spectrum techniques and interference modeling and analysis of 
		wireless networks. I have strong interest in the design of communications networks under 
		practical assumptions.   
		
		  
		
		Examples include the design and analysis of 
		relay cooperative networks, cognitive radio networks and coded 
		communication systems for fading channels, the tradeoff between diversity and 
		channel estimation in practical communication systems, coded 
		bit-interleaved modulation and coded OFDM systems with finite 
		interleaver sizes, diversity schemes with channel estimation errors, 
		directional antennas under interference conditions, layered steered 
		space-time coded systems, wireless sensor network prototyping with 
		energy-efficient medium-access protocols, the design and analysis of low-complexity 
		distributed estimation schemes, as long as dual-hop wireless networks in 
		interference and fading channels.    |
