Dr Yusuf Sambo

  • Lecturer in Glasgow College UESTC (Autonomous Systems & Connectivity)

Biography

Yusuf Sambo received the BEng degree in Electrical Engineering from Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria in 2010, the MSc degree (distinction) in Mobile and Satellite Communications, in 2011, and PhD degree in Electronic Engineering in 2016, both from the Institute for Communication Systems (ICS, formally known as CCSR) of the University of Surrey.

He was a Lecturer in Telecommunications Engineering at Baze University, Abuja, from June 2016 to September 2017. In October 2017, he joined the Communications, Sensing and Imaging (CSI) research group at the University of Glasgow as a Postdoctoral Research Associate working on multiple projects worth over £3 million. Since December 2017, Dr Sambo has been the 5G Testbed Lead and coordinated the delivery of the Scotland 5G Centre testbed at the University of Glasgow. Dr Sambo is currently a Lecturer at the James Watt School of Engineering, University of Glasgow.

He is an active reviewer for several IEEE Transactions and other top journals and has served as technical program committee member for several IEEE conferences. He has also contributed to organizing IEEE conferences and workshops.

Research interests

My main interests include self-organized networks, radio resource management, EM exposure reduction, energy efficiency and 5G use case design and implementation.
