RESEACH EXPERIENCE :
I undertook research activity when I was writing my Masters Thesis on the theme: “Multichannel Satellite Communications Systems for Ghana”.
RESEARCH INTEREST
My Research Interest is in the field of “Wireless Communications Technology”, with emphasis on “Vehicular Communication Networks – Wireless Ad-hoc Networks”.
BACKGROUND
Vehicular Communication Systems are emerging and edge-cutting type of wireless communications networks in which vehicles and roadside units (transmitters) are the communicating nodes; providing each other with information, such as safety warnings and traffic information. As a mutual or cooperative approach, vehicular communication systems can be more effective in avoiding accidents and traffic congestions than if each vehicle tries to solve these problems individually.
Some immediate applications of vehicular communication networks include: Warnings on entering intersections and highways, Warnings on departing the highways, Obstacle discoveries, Sudden halts warnings, Reporting accidents, Lane change warnings, etc.
Vehicular Communication Networks are attracting attention as they are envisioned to be a part of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) worldwide. By enabling vehicles to communicate with each other via Inter-Vehicle Communication (IVC) devices as well as with roadside base stations via Roadside-to-Vehicle Communication (RVC) devices, vehicular networks will contribute to safer and more efficient and reliable roads by providing timely information to drivers and concerned authorities.
