Honours and Awards
1. Made a number of world-first contributions to Optical Wireless (OW) systems introducing a large number of new concepts that led to world record performance improvements and data rates that increased as a result from few Mbit/s to multi Gbit/s with full mobility. Previous indoor mobile optical wireless systems operated typically at 30 Mbit/s (Djahani and Kahn IEEE TCOM 2000) to 100 Mbit/s (Audeh Kahn IEEE TCOM 95 and Boucouvalas and Vitsas, IEE Optoelectronics 2003)
2. Investigated a number of concepts for the first time in the context of OW systems including relay nodes, the use of MC-CDMA for multi-user operation and has shown how his methods can reduce the impact of shadowing and enable mobile operation in a realistic indoor environment
3. Most notably his work has shown how multi-gigabit mobile wireless communication systems can be realised opening the door to data rates beyond those in his work, for example 40Gbit/s. These are mobile rates beyond those that can be supported in the radio frequency spectrum at present (and in the foreseeable future) and are becoming essential in view of the increased high definition (HD) and 3D media where projections by Cisco indicate that by 2020 over 90% of the Internet traffic will be high data rate video, mostly to dense deployments of handheld devices where currently 70% of the world wireless traffic starts and terminates indoor
4. Has received the Carter award, University of Leeds, UK for the best PhD, and has recently received the IET premium Awards 2018
5. Has published more than 280 Research Articles in JCR journals by Oct. 2018, with Web of Science (ISI) Total Citations: 2983; Without Self Citations: 2493; and h-index: 31
6. Has 32 Highly Cited papers in Field and 2 Hot papers in Field by Oct. 2018
