Research
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.
