I am an accomplished Electrical and Telecommunication Engineer, bringing a rich blend of 2 years of industrial experience as a Satellite Network Engineer and 3 years of cutting-edge research experience in 5G technologies within academia and the research environment in Europe. My diverse background equips me with a deep understanding of both practical applications and innovative advancements in telecommunications, enabling me to contribute effectively to the ever-evolving landscape of connectivity and communication. My research focuses on the design of high-speed 5G optical communication systems, including coherent systems and 50G PON technology. I am particularly interested in exploring advanced DSP algorithms for equalization in 5G optical communication systems. I explored and implemented the Least Mean Square (LMS), Constant Modulus Algorithm (CMA), and Adaptive Median Filtering Algorithm for QPSK and 16QAM. For 64QAM and 128QAM I implemented a Decision Feedback Equalizer (DFE) and Maximum likelihood Detection (MLD) algorithm. Additionally, my work encompasses converged 5G millimeter wave analog radio over fiber systems, wireless communication, and higher-order modulation formats such as 64QAM,128QAM, 256QAM, and OFDM. I am also investigating advanced machine learning algorithms tailored for 5G communication systems, utilizing Python and MATLAB. With this Research experience, I published 4 Research Articles. It is truly fascinating to contribute to these innovative fields

5G STEP FWD proposes a new architecture that uses UDWDM PONs as the backhaul of mmWave networks in order to achieve high capacity and low latency backhauling. The proposed architecture takes full advantage of the ultra-narrow wavelength spacing of the UDWDM technology, in order to provide connectivity to a dense small-cell population.
