Overview
I am a Ph.D. student at the Centre of Innovation in Telecommunications and Integration of services (CITI) laboratory - INSA Lyon, within the INRIA SWING team. My advisor is Professor Fabrice Valois.
I obtained my Master Research in Networks and Telecommunications from University of Paris Sud-11 Academy of Versaille in 2008.

My thesis Subject:

    Towards zero control packets in WSN for energy saving.

Research interests
  • Wireless Networking : Wireless Sensor Networks, Routing and MAC layer protocols for MANET and WSN, IP for WSN.

  • Self-Organization Networks, data aggregation

  • Performance Evaluation

  • I am also interested in information theory, mainly in Source-Channel Coding and Network Coding application.
