Security and Data Reliability in Cooperative Wireless Networks

Dr. Emad S. Hassan received his B.Sc. (Honors), M.Sc., and Ph.D. from Electronics and Electrical Communications Engineering Department, Faculty of Electronic Engineering, Menoufia University, Egypt, in 2003, 2006, and 2010, respectively. In 2008, he joined the Communications Research Group at Liverpool University, Liverpool, UK, as a Visitor Researcher to finish his Ph.D research. Now, he is a Lecturer at Electronics and Electrical Communications Engineering Department, Faculty of Electronic Engineering, Menoufia University, Egypt. Dr Hassan has been a full-time Demonstrator (2003-2006), Assistant Lecturer (2007-2010) at Faculty of Electronic Engineering, Menoufia University. He was a Visitor Researcher at Liverpool University, Liverpool, UK, (2008-2009), a Teaching Assistant at the University of Liverpool, UK (2008-2009), Lecturer (2010-date) at Faculty of Electronic Engineering, Menoufia University, and a part-time Lecturer at many respectable private engineering universities in Egypt (2010-2011). He co-supervises 6 M.Sc. and 1 PhD students, Faculty of Electronic Engineering, Menoufia University (2010-date). Dr Hassan is a reviewer for many international journals and conferences. He was a Technical Program Committee (TPC) member for many international conferences. He has published more than 60 scientific papers in national and international conference proceedings and journals and two books in CRC Press, Taylor & Francis. His current research areas of interest include image processing, digital communications, cooperative communication, cognitive radio networks, OFDM, SC-FDE, MIMO and CPM based systems.
