Jeffrey Wildman
Networking and Communications Systems Researcher
About
I received the dual M.S./B.S. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from Drexel University, Philadelphia, PA, USA, in 2009 and 2015, respectively. My past internships and research visits include MIT Lincoln Laboratory, Lexington, MA, USA; Cisco Systems, Inc., Boxborough, MA, USA; and the University of Oulu, Finland. In 2016, I joined MIT Lincoln Laboratory where I am currently a Member of Technical Staff developing advanced systems and technology to enable the next generation of airborne and mobile tactical communications networks.
I am currently serving in a variety of IC and lead roles on multiple programs focused on prototyping networking and wireless comms solutions. I am particularly suited to leading and directly contributing to small team, multi-disciplinary efforts. Over the past 10 years, I have developed a significant history of work with Yocto-based embedded systems / embedded Linux.
My earlier research experiences have covered a variety of practical and theoretical topics in communications, networking, and embedded software, including: i) performance analysis of wireless networks with directional antennas in the presence of antenna configuration error using stochastic geometry, ii) design/deployment of graph-based wireless networks for scheduling algorithm optimality guarantees using random graph theory, and iii) structural properties of, and algorithmic solutions to, cellular user association problems posed as network utility optimization programs.
In my spare time, I enjoy playing , hiking , and brewing .
