Milad Tatar Mamaghani

Research scientist and engineer working on secure, reliable, and energy-efficient AI-native wireless communication systems in 6G and beyond.

About Me

I’m Milad, originally from Mamaqan, a town near Tabriz in northwestern Iran, and now based in Sydney, Australia. I completed my Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering at Monash University and later worked as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Australian National University.

My work sits at the intersection of wireless communications, signal processing, optimization, machine learning, and applied AI. I have worked on physical-layer security, non-terrestrial networks, integrated sensing and communications, MIMO beamforming, reconfigurable intelligent surfaces, and data-driven resource allocation for beyond-5G and 6G networks. More broadly, I am interested in AI-native systems, data science and analytics, simulation engineering, and software development that turns complex technical ideas into practical, testable, and impactful solutions.

My work has led to 17+ peer-reviewed publications, 600+ citations, two IEEE Best Paper Awards, competitive scholarships, awards, grants, and international recognition for contributions to secure and intelligent wireless technologies. I have also served the research community as a volunteer reviewer, TPC member, and conference session chair for leading international venues. Outside work, I enjoy hiking, swimming, and overthinking my next chess moves.
