Research
My primary interests include cognitive radio, wireless networks, and
security. Most of my current research involves advancing the state of
the art in Software-Defined Radio (SDR) and Cognitive Radio (CR). I
hold a number of positions within the IETF, working to standardize secure
protocols for wireless networks.
I received my Ph.D. from the University of Maryland in Computer Science, where my advisor
was Bill Arbaugh. My
dissertation research was an information-theoretic analysis of the
FCC's Interference Temperature
proposal for dynamic spectrum access. While at the University of Illinois, I received
my MSEE while working with Dick
Blahut on information-theoretic cryptography.
In my role at LTS, I'm
managing and participating in a variety of research collaborations:

Graduate Student Advisees
Nate Goergen, Ph.D. Student
Todd Finkler, Ph.D. Student (co-advise with M. Shayman)
Scott Kim, Ph.D. Student (co-advise with S. Bhattacharyya)
As an adjunct professor, I can advise Undergraduate and Masters students in the
Electrical and Computer Engineering department, and serve on and co-direct Ph.D.
dissertation committees. If you have been admitted to the ECE department at UMD and
are interested in working with me, please email me.
Realize that I am not a full-time faculty member, and
consequently can only accept a limited number of students. Also, I don't have any
funding available to support research assistants.
