George P. Nychis

    I am currently a PhD student in the department of Electrical & Computer Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, co-advised by Peter Steenkiste and Srinivasan Seshan.

    I received an MS degree from Carnegie Mellon University and a BS from the University of Pittsburgh.

    My research focuses in the area of wireless networks and the ever-growing problem of the coexistence between heterogeneous networks. I have also focused on software-defined radios and leverage them for my research.

Quick Tidbits

I gave a co-talk with Ranveer Chandra on the coexistence of wireless mics and white space devices to the Audio Engineering Society! Watch: [talk | demo]

Our work on the coexistence of wireless microphones with white space devices (CoNEXT 2011) was demonstrated directly to FCC chairman Genachowski.

I was a repeat intern at Microsoft Research for NRG and the Xbox team in 2010.

I had the honor of being an intern at Microsoft Research in the summer of 2009 working on the world's first urban white space network.

Our work on MAC protocol implementations on SDRs appeared in NSDI, 2009.

I have released The Comprehensive GNU Radio Archive Network (CGRAN).

I was awarded the Vlahakis Fellowship in Spring 2008, which is given to 1 graduate ECE student at CMU every year.
