Forschung
Christian mainly explores whether and how resource-constrained embedded systems can be secured against practical attacks. Especially the authenticated key establishment as well as the key management in combination with user-friendliness are of his major interest. His research includes:
- physical layer security,
- wireless security,
- heterogeneous networks,
- cognitive radio networks,
- statistical signal processing, and
- resource allocation for wireless communications.
Projekte
- Our Spin-off in Physical Layer Security (PHYSEC)
- Virtual Proof of Reality for Nuclear Warhead Disarmament Scenarios
