Cambridge, United Kingdom

I undertake physical layer algorithm research and development for next generation WiFi (802.11ax and 802.11be) and Bluetooth, covering all aspects of signal processing for wireless modem transceivers. Develop algorithms from concept through to fixed point implementation for radio impairment mitigation, timing, wideband (memory) digital pre-distortion.

Bristol, United Kingdom

I joined the Algorithms and Standards team at Nvidia in late 2012 as a Senior Algorithm Engineer.I undertook research and development of physical layer algorithms for advanced cellular modems to meet the currernt and future requirements of LTE and LTE-Advanced. In particular, advanced receiver signal processing architectures and interference aware receiver.

Specialising in wireless communication, Systems4Silicon provides a range of services in electronics hardware, software, DSP and FPGA design from concept studies through to full product development.

3C Research was a collaboration between four industrial partners, including QinetiQ, and the University of Bristol.Team leader for a project developing an FPGA hardware platform to demonstrate state-of-the-art wireless physical layer OFDM LAN communications, based upon the IEEE 802.11n (Draft) standard.

FGAN, Bonn, Germany

Seconded to the FGAN research institute, Bonn, Germany, where I undertook work on high range resolution radar processing and was responsible for the design of an ultra-wideband digital “chirp” waveform generator using Direct Digital Synthesis (DDS).

Won a Corporate Research Fellowship. This formed part of a long-term strategy to expand and develop further QinetiQ’s multi-element antenna technology. Developed strategic links with the Centre for Communications Research at the University of Bristol, and led a programme of collaborative research.Provided industrial sponsorship and acted as industrial.

Malvern, Worcestershire, UK

I developed small and low-cost phased array technology for next generation radar and communication systems. In particular, I addressed the problems of beam synthesis, beam control/steering and adaptive beam signal processing for small array antennas.
