Santosh Kumar
I lead the Wireless Sensors and Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (WiSe MANet) Lab. We are engaged in both theoretical and systems research. The current focus of our theoretical research is on fundamental issues of coverage, connectivity, and deployment, with emphasis on optimality, localized design, and most importantly energy-efficiency.
