About me

At present, I am working as Technical Study Driver at Ericsson, Stockholm, Sweden. In addition, I am pursuing studies towards an Executive M.B.A. degree at Stockholm School of Economics, Stockholm, Sweden.

I received my B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in Radio Engineering from KPI National Technical University of Ukraine, Kyiv, Ukraine in 2005 and 2007, respectively, as well as an M.Sc. degree in Radio Communication Systems from Supélec (now CentraleSupélec), Paris, France in 2008. Later on, I received a Lic.Eng. and Ph.D. dergees in Telecommunications from KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden in 2012 and 2014, respectively. During my doctoral studies, I have also been a visiting researcher at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, University of New South Wales, in September 2012, the Alcatel-Lucent Chair on Flexible Radio, Supélec, Paris, France in June-July 2013 and the Department of Signal Processing and Acoustics, Aalto University, Espoo, Finland in February 2014.

I am the recepient of the IEEE VT/COM/IT Sweden Best Conference Paper Award 2015.

My research interests:

  • AI and Machine Learning,
  • 6G Wireless Communications,
  • Multi-Antenna Systems,
  • Information Theory,
  • Statistical Physics,
  • Random Matrix Theory.
