Irfan Jabandžić

Irfan Jabandžić is a Postdoctoral researcher affiliated with Ghent University's Faculty of Engineering and Architecture under the Department of Information Technology (EA05), with collaboration from IMEC. His research spans wireless communication systems, focusing on dynamic spectrum sharing, AI-driven network collaboration, and infrastructure optimization for next-generation wireless technologies.

His work emphasizes dynamic spectrum sharing and collaborative intelligent radio networks (CIRNs), leveraging artificial intelligence to predict and avoid spectrum collisions in hybrid environments. He has developed systems like the SCATTER approach for distributed spectrum allocation and the CODYSUN paradigm for satellite communications. His open-source wireless spectrum hypervisor enables multiplexing of OFDM signals across technologies like LTE, 5G-NR, and NB-IoT.

Publications highlight his contributions to 5G network densification, cognitive radio, and multi-carrier signal processing. He has participated in the DARPA Spectrum Collaboration Challenge, designing protocols validated through Colosseum RF emulation and field trials. His research also addresses MAC protocol portability across IoT platforms.
