His research interests include wireless communication, broadly covering channel estimation, robust multiuser detection, digital video broadcasting (DVB), and advanced mmWave technologies. Additionally, he focuses on the practical application of AI and machine learning techniques, such as fuzzy logic, neural networks, Support Vector Machines (SVMs), and sophisticated decision trees. These methodologies are primarily applied for developing effective intrusion detection systems in diverse network environments, notably vehicular ad-hoc networks, and for thoroughly addressing the impact of impulsive noise on overall system performance
