Advanced Receiver Algorithms for LTE Control Channel in presence of inter cellular interference and parameter estimation errors. • Optimization of the performance of physical layer control channel reception for LTE downlink. • Detailed analysis for equalization and combining techniques, noise covariance estimation methods, channel estimation, log-likelihood ratio optimization and demodulator design for Space-Frequency Block Coded PDCCH data.

Built a MATLAB simulator for LTE physical control channel. Analyzed performance of various basic equalization and combining schemes for PDCCH reception.

Assisted in research in the field of Mobile Communications and Radio Resource Allocation. The work dealt mainly with scheduling of resource allocation in multiuser wireless communication systems. Dealt with scheduling, relay selection problems in MIMO and antenna selection problems.
