About Me
Greetings! I am a researcher, engineer, and entrepreneur passionate about high-accuracy localization, wireless communications, and next-generation tracking technologies. My academic journey spans multiple continents, beginning with a B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering (specializing in communications) from the University of Tehran, Iran, in 2016. I then pursued my M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering at Lehigh University, Pennsylvania, USA, where I deepened my expertise in signal processing and wireless systems, earning my degree in 2018.
Building on this foundation, I completed my Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Bradley Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Virginia Tech, in December 2023. Under the co-supervision of Professor Angelos Stavrou and Professor Haining Wang, my doctoral research focused on wireless communications, security, and high-precision positioning technologies, with applications in UAV localization, advanced 5G/6G networks, and AR/VR/MR systems.
Following my Ph.D., I co-founded WayWave Inc. alongside Professor Angelos Stavrou. At WayWave, we bridge cutting-edge research and product development, working on next-generation localization and tracking solutions. Our work spans from high-accuracy tracking for AR/VR/MR systems to passive detection and localization of intruder objects using spaceborne illumination. Additionally, we are pioneering photonic-based high-accuracy timing systems that have the potential to revolutionize ranging capabilities and beyond.
My expertise lies at the intersection of wireless systems, positioning and navigation, security, signal processing, and photonic-based timing technologies, and I am driven by the challenge of transforming theoretical advancements into real-world solutions.
