User profile

I am currently working towards my Ph.D as a member of the METRIK interdisciplinary graduate school at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.

Research interests

Most of my work is focused on wireless communication and has a strong connection to the DES-Testbed, a 128 multi-radio wireless mesh and wireless sensor network. My main field and Ph.D topic is research on distributed channel assignment algorithms for wireless mesh networks. I am also working on

  • Cognitive radio / sensing strategies

  • Experimentation methodology for wireless testbeds

  • Cooperative routing / forwarding strategies in wireless networks

  • Mobility models for MANETs

Publications

Here is a list of journal and conference publications.

Projects

  • OPNEX (2008 - 2011) - This EU FIRE project delivers a first principles approach to the design of architectures and protocols for multi-hop wireless networks. Systems and optimization theory is used as the foundation for algorithms that provably achieve full transport capacity of wireless systems. Subsequently a plan for converting the algorithms termed in abstract network models to protocols and architectures in practical wireless systems is given. Finally a validation methodology through experimental protocol evaluation in real network test-beds is proposed.
  • SITUMET (2008 - 2011) - The aim of the research project SITUMET is the development of a new generation of meteorological services based on innovative, regionally specific forecasting modules within the framework of an open platform. These services are ubiquitous and situation-dependent, i.e., available in and for each location in whatever required resolution regarding time, location and content.
