About me

I am a Research Assistant and Ph.D. Candidate in the Computer Engineering Department at Istanbul Technical University, Turkey. I aim to do good work on problems that involve Wireless Communications.

Research Interests

• FANET Datalink & Protocol Design: Designing datalink and routing protocols tailored for FANETs and high-mobility ad hoc networks, targeting throughput, resilience, and adaptability under dynamic topology changes.
• Task-Oriented & Semantic Communications: Developing task-oriented communication strategies that reduce redundant traffic by transmitting only task-relevant information, improving scalability in resource-constrained MANETs.
• Digital Twin-Guided Wireless Networks: Leveraging digital twin frameworks to enable global network awareness and coordinated decision-making at both datalink and network layers.
