Osamah S. Badarneh received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from University of Quebec-ETS (Canada) in
2009. He was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Telecommunication Engineering at Yarmouk University
(YU), Jordan, from Jan. 2010-Sep. 2012. In 2012 he joined the Department of Electrical Engineering at University
of Tabuk (UT), Saudi Arabia), where he is currently an Assistant Professor. He is also serve as an adjunct professor
at University of Quebec-ETS in the Department of Electrical Engineering since Nov. 2013. He has several years of
teaching experience both at undergraduate and graduate level. His research interests focus on wireless communications
and networking. During his Ph.D., he worked on video multicast over wireless ad hoc networks. After that, he worked
on designing MAC and routing protocols over cognitive radio networks. He currently works on video routing over
cognitive radio networks. In addition, he works on performance analysis of wireless MIMO systems including: space
modulations (space shift keying (SSK), spatial modulation (SM), and spatial multiplexing), beamforming, cooperative
communications, dual- and multiple-hop transmission over wireless fading channels, and energy detection over fading
channels. He is an active researcher and has published many papers in various refereed journals, conference proceedings,
book , and book chapters. He serves as a reviewer for several IEEE journals and conferences.
