Professional Positions:
-Sharif university of technology as an assistant professor.
Duties include:
Design and development of a digital image processor for motion detection, and classification (1994--1996).
Fault-tolerant design analysis of intelligent electronic pig to be used for corrosion, and crack detection of gas and petroleum pipelines (1994--1996).
-Amir kabir university of technology as an assistant professor.
Duties include:
Teaching undergraduate/graduate courses and supervising students (1994--present).

Research Activities:
-Head engineer for development of a digital image processing simulator for development on systolic array processors. This simulator works on noisy images at binary level and applies different methods such as adaptive Wiener, adaptive contrast compression, and ... to obtain an enhanced image. It uses SHARK processor for simulation.
-Head engineer for development of a scene detection simulator.
This simulator works on aerial images for detection of changes in the environment. It uses an adaptive correlation technique with some saving on the number of pixels required to process.
-Head engineer for design and development of a phased array passive beamformer for surveillence.

Academic Activities:
-Teaching courses in analog and digital communication series, mobile communications, digital signal and image processing, probability, stochastic processes, advanced mathematics.
-Supervising (under)graduate students in the following areas:
Development of transmitter/receiver of 9600 baud modems.
Study of the available commercial mobile communication systems.
Digial communications, digital signal and image processing, RADAR, SONAR, mobile communications, artifical intelligence.
Analysis of microwave digital selective fading channels modelled by three paths and the evaluation of error performance for different modulations such as MPSK and MQAM with/without equalizer.
Passive beamforming with an random array geometry in two or three dimensional space and narrowband or wideband temporal signals, this work lead to a new optimum method.
Passive beamforming in the presence of array uncertainty,by first calibrating the array and estimating the shape with eigenvector of the maximum eigenvalue of the hydrophones' cross-power spectral matrix and then the new beamforming method is applied.
