My C.V. Adaptive Filters PC Interfaces GigabitEthernet 8bit CPU DSP Links

I received my BSc and MSc degrees in Electrical Engineering from Sharif University of Technology, Tehran, Iran. My MSc. thesis was entitled "Echo Cancellation in Telephone Networks using Adaptive Filters". Now I am continuing my PhD at McMaster University.

My research interests lie in the area of Signal Processing and Communications. The more specific areas that I have contributed in recently are Adaptive Signal Processing (Echo Cancellation algorithms), Adaptive filtering using convex optimization techniques.
