Prof. Yu-Dong Yao, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, New Jersey

Computer Studies Building Room 633

Abstract: In this talk, we will present AI research results of Machine Learning and Deep Learning as applied to wireless and cognitive radio networks. Specific topics include modulation classification, MAC protocol classification, and RF fingerprinting for radio terminal identification. Jamming and communications reliability issues will also be addressed.
