Engineering Thesis 2023

For the upcoming academic year I would like to propose the following general topics (to be specified later with selected candidates):

  1. Evaluating Machine Learning Extensions for Wi-Fi Performance Analysis in ns-3 – The goal is to demonstrate how the performance of Wi-Fi can be improved using two machine learning frameworks available for ns-3: ns3-gym and ns3-ai.
  2. A Python-based Simulator of NR-U FBE Channel Access in Unlicensed Bands – The goal is to implement and validate a simulator written in Python that implements the channel access mechanism of NR-U networks operating in shared channels under the frame-based equipment (FBE) variant of listen-before talk (LBT) defined in ETSI EN 301 893. This research paper has information on FBE. The topic can be realized using SimPy.
  3. Validating a Python-based Wi-Fi/NR-U Coexistence simulator – The goal is to validate an existing channel access simulator for Wi-Fi and NR-U networks coexisting on the same channel. The simulator is in its final development stages and will be available through a GitHub repository.
  4. Evaluation of IEEE 802.11ax OFDMA in ns-3 – The goal is to evaluate the implementation of OFDMA in ns-3 by creating a reference simulation scenario and conducting a simulation analysis.
  5. A Python-based Simulator of IEEE 802.11be Multi-Link Channel Access – The goal is to implement and validate a channel access simulator written in Python that implements the multi-link operation of 802.11be. This topic can be realized using SimPy.

I put forward these topics for the consideration of 3rd year students of

  • Elektronika i Telekomunikacja,
  • Electronics and Telecommunications,
  • Teleinformatyka,

who plan to complete their engineer’s degrees by defending their diploma theses in January 2023.

If you are interested in writing a thesis under my supervision, please send an e-mail to szott@agh.edu.pl with the subject “Praca inżynierska 2023”. Please write a few words about yourself and your motivation. Relevant information (such as past grades from related courses) is appreciated.
