Research Interests
My research interests are in information theory and cognitive wireless networks.
My current research areas are:
- compressive sensing;
- novel modulation and diversity schemes for high speed wireless transmission;
- Ultra-Wideband (UWB) channel modeling, signal detection and networking;
- powerline communication;
- locating and tracking based on wireless sensor networks;
- network self-optimization and heterogeneous networks.
My research also covers practical industrial topics such as
- cross layer design for connection aware applications;
- service oriented baseband design for RFID (Radio-frequency identification);
- UWB for medical applications and standardization of telecommunication technologies.
