Welcome!
This website provides details about my educational and professional background, my research interests, my teaching responsibilities and my administrative duties, both internal and external. Please either scroll down or use the menu to navigate my website.
Research
My research interests lie in the area of communication theory and include the modelling, analysis, performance evaluation and design of communication systems. My focus has been on coding schemes for multiple-antenna systems and cooperative networks. Currently, my focus is on random linear coding over finite fields combined with noise decoding for ultra-reliable communications.
Teaching
In 2024-2025, I am involved in the teaching of the following modules:
- SCC.131: Digital Systems (BSc Computer Science, Cyber Security, Data Science, Software Engineering)
- SCC.460: Data Science Fundamentals (MSc Data Science)
Service
As part of my departmental duties in 2024-2025, I fulfil the following roles:
- Postgraduate Teaching Director
- Postgraduate Examinations Officer
