Networks and Wireless Systems (NeWS) Lab

 

I lead the “Networks and Wireless Systems Lab” at Portland State University (NeWSLab@PSU). I built the lab in 2017 from scratch with three primary research focuses: (i) design of next generation radio access and networking technologies that substantially improve network capacity; (ii) design of new techniques to reduce power consumption and support higher mobility of client devices; and (iii) design of new security technologies that can better protect wireless devices from jamming and other security attacks. In addition, the lab provides an environment for students to design and implement wireless systems and network protocols on software-defined radios and networks. Using a multidisciplinary approach, NeWSLab@PSU conducts basic theoretical and experimental research that leads the transformation of computer and wireless networking by bringing together expertise from applied mathematics, computer vision, and computer engineering. We have access to a wide variety of netwroking and wireless equipment in our lab. Below are the pictures of some our equipment:
