Muhammad Zeeshan Mumtaz

Muhammad Zeeshan Mumtaz has recently joined Queen's University Belfast for PhD in Electrical & Electronics Engineering. His research is focused on exploring the research themes of Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) and Cell Free Massive MIMO systems. He has been serving as lecturer at College of Aeronautical Engineering, NUST for two years (2021-2023), while teaching two undergraduate courses. He is an accomplished electrical & electronics engineer focused in the domains of wireless communication, radar signal processing and communication networks with extensive field and R&D experience. He has completed sponsored B.E (Avionics Engineering) from CAE, NUST in 2014 and MS (Avionics Engineering - Wireless Communications) from IAA, Air University in 2021 with honors.  His current research interests relate to contemporary issues of Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces, Cell Free MIMO systems, NOMA communication systems, MIMO radars, autonomous modulation classification and application of deep learning for communication challenges. His field experience involves extensive training and maintenance of Cisco & Huawei network switches, air navigation systems (ILS, TACAN, PAR) by Thales and Selex Co and Rohde & Schwarz radio sets for air traffic control. His research & development endeavors include development of small scale FMCW radar for low mobility target acquisition, integration of aircraft data links and implementation of practical SDR based NOMA systems. In addition to these achievements, multiple publications have presented in the proceedings of reputable conferences.
