Biography
Research interests
My current research is focused around five related themes:
-
Analysis and design of future wireless systems and networks (including true full-duplex, low-complexity MIMO, and mmWave systems), with a particular interest in hardware implementation;
-
Radar systems, with a focus on novel architectures for small satellites;
-
Radiowave propagation and channel characterisation, particularly in man-made structures such as buildings;
-
Antenna design, with a focus on space applications for small satellites, and indoor mmWave wireless systems; and
-
Computational electromagnetics, with a focus on developing novel techniques to efficiently estimate uncertainty and sensitivity.
