Developing Access Stratum & L1 Controller for LTE–MTC (Long Term Evolution-Machine TypeCommunication) and LTE NB-IOT (Narrow Band-Internet of Things)protocol stacks- RRC Layer design, development & testing- L1 Layer (uplink transmission, synchronization procedures, low coverage., scheduling L1 activities), design, development & testing- Stack testing using.

 Project aims at designing and developing the Access Stratum of the LTE (Long Term Evolution) protocol stack- Development of Release 9 features for RRC (Radio Resource Control) Layer- RRC Layer (Connected mode & Multi-RAT procedures) design, development & testing- Design and development of error handling for RRC Layer- Study Release 10 features in RRC.

The project aims at design and development of the Access Stratum of the LTE (Long Term Evolution) protocol stack; Layer 2 and Layer 3 (RRC, PDCP, RLC and MAC layers).- Project scope definition, requirements analysis & release planning. - System architecture design (static architecture, dynamic and tasking architecture). - Software modules design. - Design.

The R&D project is responsible for all horizontal technical activities across the company. Contributed to and supervised the following activities: - Definition of company's Software Development Process. - Producing UML2.0 guidelines and selection of UML modeling tool.- Selection of IDE. - Selection of version control and definition of version control usage.

Developed for Cypress (CA, USA), the project aimed at defining a wireless sensor network protocol with tight memory requirements using Cypress Hi-Tech Compiler for an 8-bits micro-controlleA team of 3 engineers and myself have: - Defined Wireless Sensor Network protocol (Transport Layer, Network Layer and MAC Layer) after investigating available WSN.

The project has been designed and developed for Wipro, India. The project aimed at the implementation of WUSB Host, Device and Dual Role Device. Responsible for: - Project scope definition and specification of detailed requirements with the customer.- System static architecture design. - Design of hosted solution for the WUSB device. - Leading a team of 7.

The Access Terminal has been designed and developed for Via Telecom- Specifying system requirements, components functional and structural design.- Conducting code walkthroughs.- Testing software modules and integrated system.

The 802.16d MAC Layer for both the Base Station and the Subscriber Station has been designed and developed for WiLAN Company- Specifying system requirements, components functional and structural design.- Conducting code walkthroughs.- Testing software modules and integrated system.

The project aimed at designing and developing a computer based exchange. Gained knowledge in wired telephony and associated standards (V5.2 protocol, ISDN User Part (ISUP) protocols, TCAP)
