As software team leader, I am mainly in charge of the evolution of:- Quonops©, a noise management and forecasting system for natural and anthropogenic noise- QORT, a monitoring serviceaccording to the needs of the acoustics team.Those tools use technology such as mutithreading and parallel computing.

Lannion

As a member of layer 1 algorithm team (UMTS), my work concerns uplink reception in Node-B :- performances study in system model simulator - support when problem occurs on field.

OFDM demodulation for digital video broadcasting standards (DVB-T, ISDB-T) on a programmable architecture. Algorithms development for synchronization, channel estimation, data equalization and interference rejection. Validation on synthetic signal and with embedded code on live signal.

In the context of a missile project developed at SAGEM, I was in charge of the analysis of mechanical vibration data recorded by accelerometers during flight or ground tests. Those tests included shock, mechanical fatigue and so on.

Working at SODERN (EADS) in the context of neutron instrumentation, I was first in charge of debugging algorithm in Matlab's code. Then I made analysis of machine's repeatability. I also worked on results improvement for example by wavelet denoising of spectrum. At last I had to make embedded C code to match Matlab's results.

Study of the application of digital communication's multipath mitigation methods in over-the_horizon radar context. Physical modelling, radar processing simulation, use of SIMO & MIMO methods, constant modulus algorithm, array processing...
