Summary
Reza Shakeri was born in Tehran, Iran. He received
the B.S. degree in electrical engineering from Azad uni-
versity of Iran South-Tehran branch in 2011 and the M.S.
degree in communication systems from Imam Khome-
ini International University (IKIU) of Qazvin in 2014.
From 2011 he was the teacher assistant of Dr. Abbas
Taherpour in communication systems’ course. Finally
he finished his M.S. thesis entitled as "Performance of
Wireless Communication Systems by Using Energy Har-
vesting Nodes" in 2014 under the supervision of Prof.
A. Taherpour. Then, he moved to Mobile Communica-
tion Compani of Iran (MCI) as staff trainer for wireless
communication systems concept.Some of the most im-
portant research interests of him include wireless com-
munications by using energy harvesting nodes, cogni-
tive and cooperative communication systems, adaptive
modulation and coding, device-to-device communica-
tions, millimeter-wave cooperative communications, in-
vestigating the impact of channel estimation error and
outdated CSI on wireless communication systems. Also
he has some published papers along with several sub-
mitted papers in the recent years. Furthermore, he has
a good knowledge of 2G, 3G, 4G and 5G and some pub-
lished papers in these areas. Besides, he has collabo-
ration with abroad universities within their research
groups. He has also a good hand at design and main-
tenance of electrical RF circuits along with switched
mode power supplies and transceivers. He is addition-
ally IEEE referee for top journals in communications.

HUAWEI and ERICSSON communication companies followed by online translation of English courses.
Communication systems consultant and designer April 2011 – January 2013
Tehran University Electrical an Computer Research Center (UE&CRC) is a leading company in Tehran with
the aim of doing research on several areas of electrical engineering and implementing industrial projects. I
was called in to help them through implementing wireless IP-based sensor network and also providing them
consultation for their communication systems and digital signal processing projects. Moreover, I used to
design and implement monitoring systems and data acquisition systems for Iran’s power stations like NEKA.
Communication systems researcher and circuit designer February 2010 – March 2011
Paydaran Parsa is an experienced company in Iran that is specializes in designing and maintenance of airport
voice switching systems. I assessed their wireless and wired voice transmission team, trained their developers
and joined their research and development team where I made several researches on implementing voice
switching systems.
