2016-2018

Research Assistant

Alexandria University

Alexandria, Egypt.

Working on queuing analysis of LTE-WiFi coexistence technique. The target was to guarantee that the existence of LTE systems has a controlled delay effect on the performance of WiFi systems.

2016-2018

Research Assistant

Cognitive Radio Cloud (CRC),

SmartCI, Alexandria University

Alexandria, Egypt.

Participants in Spectrum Collaboration Challenge 2 (SC2) organized by Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) in the USA. The target of the competition was to implement a complete cognitive radio system that is capable of transmission without affecting primary users and/or its rivals.

Published a paper in IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference (WCNC) 2017.
