Namaskaram!

Welcome to my web-page. I am with the Communication Section of the Department of Electrical Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology Madras, and also reside in the sylvan IITM campus (which is surely the only public university campus in the world blessed with over 500 species of birds, and other exotic flora and fauna!). My academic research interests include adaptive estimation and it's application to digital wireless communications transceiver algorithms, such as methods based on subspace estimation, robust statistics, and semi-parametric approaches. My research group is also involved in the performance analysis and capacity enhancement of MIMO-OFDM mobile broadband systems, with special emphasis on interference aware and/or channel aware estimation, detection, relaying, precoding, and scheduling techniques. Many of these algorithms developed by us have also been modified in order to nicely fit into the PHY layer of 4G wireless standards such as LTE-A and 802.16m.

Useful links to understand our group's activities include Telecommunications and Computer Networks (TeNeT) Group at IITM for product development, and various broadband wireless research activities in co-operation with the Center of Excellence in Wireless Technology (CEWiT) .

Here's my bio-sketch pdf, and please click here pdf for a list of recent publications.
