معرفی
Murat Yuksel is a Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at CREOL, The College of Optics and Photonics, University of Central Florida. His research focuses on advanced wireless communication systems, including millimeter-wave (mm-Wave) technologies, free-space optical (FSO) communication, and machine learning applications in signal processing and network protocols. He leads projects involving software-defined radio (SDR) testbeds, resilient emergency communication networks, and automated peering strategies for internet service providers (ISPs).
His work bridges theoretical research with practical implementations, such as developing steerable antenna arrays for mm-Wave systems and optimizing FSO transceivers for aerial platforms. Yuksel also explores socio-technical aspects of communication networks, including disaster response communication on social media and economic models for ISP peering agreements. His contributions span interdisciplinary areas like visible light communication (VLC) networks, UAV-assisted optical links, and blockchain-based routing security.
Key research themes include:
- Directional antenna design and beamforming
- Machine learning for radio propagation modeling
- Resilient disaster communication systems
- ISP peering automation and network economics
- Multi-element FSO and VLC testbed development
Yuksel has contributed to over 50 peer-reviewed articles and actively collaborates with industry and government entities on projects like the CNS Core: Small: Directional Software-Defined Radio initiative.
