Areas of Research

o Signal Processing:

- detection and estimation theory

- distributed signal processing with band limited constraint ( e.g., for wireless sensor networks)

- sensor array and multichannel processing

- time series and spectral analysis

- parametric and non-parametric methods

- space-time adaptive processing (STAP) for airborne radars

- synthetic aperture radar

- underwater signal processing (e.g., swimmer detection with hydrophones)

- detection and classification for hyperspectral imaging (HSI)

o Wireless Communications and Networking:

- modulation, coding, and information theory

- diversity combining and analysis

- wireless relays and cooperation

- mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs)

- wireless sensor networks

- channel estimation/identification and equalization

- time and frequency synchronization (for CDMA, OFDM, etc.)

- modeling and simulation for hybrid optical and wireless networks

- cross-layer optimization
