Serpedin co-authors book on synchronization of wireless sensor networks

Dr. Erchin Serpedin, associate professor of electrical engineering at Texas A&M University, and Dr. Qasim Chaudhari, assistant professor of electrical engineering at Iraq University, have co-authored "Synchronization in Wireless Sensor Networks: Parameter Estimation, Performance Benchmarks, and Protocols," a research monograph published recently by Cambridge University Press. The book focuses on synchronization of wireless sensor networks, which play a key role in a wide range of civilian and military applications. The book summarizes the most recent advances in the field of synchronization of wireless sensor networks with special emphasis on deriving efficient clock offset estimation schemes and performance benchmarks.
Serpedin joined the department in 1999. He received his Diploma of Electrical Engineer from the Poly­technic Institute of Bucharest, his Specialization Degree in Transmis­sion and Processing of Information, L’Ecole Superieure d’Electricite (SU­PELEC), in Paris, his MS degree from the Georgia Institute of Technology, ECE School in Atlanta and his Ph.D. from the University of Virginia.
His research interests are in the ar­eas of signal processing for wireless communications, equalization/syn­chronization of communication channels, statistical signal process­ing, spectral analysis, and antenna array signal processing.
Honors include receiving the Best Paper award at The International Conference on Computing, Communications and Control Technologies: (CCCT ‘04), and receiving a TEES Fac­ulty Fellow Award and being award­ed the prestigious Faculty Early Ca­reer Development (CAREER) Award sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF). He also is the as­sociate editor for several journals and has authored numerous jour­nals and other publications.
