Biography

I received my B.Eng. degree in information engineering from Southeast University, Nanjing, China, in 2014, under the supervision of Prof. Wei Xu. In Aug. 2018, I received my Ph.D. degree in electronic and computer engineering (ECE) from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), Hong Kong, China, under the supervision of Prof. Khaled B. LETAIEF. I am currently an Assistant Professor with the Department of Electrical Engineering at City University of Hong Kong (CityU), Hong Kong, China. From 2018 - 2020, I was an Alexander von Humboldt Postdoctoral Fellow with the Institute for Digital Communications, Friedrich-Alexander University of Erlangen-Nuremberg (FAU), Erlangen, Germany, hosted by Prof. Robert Schober. Before joining CityU, I was a Research Assistant Professor with the ECE Department at HKUST. My research interests include millimeter-wave communications, MIMO systems, mathematical optimization, large intelligent surface-assisted communications, and stochastic geometry. I co-authored the book Stochastic Geometry Analysis of Multi-Antenna Wireless Networks (Springer, 2019). I also received the IEEE GLOBECOM 2017 Best Paper Award, the 2018 IEEE Signal Processing Society Young Author Best Paper Award, the IEEE GLOBECOM 2019 Best Paper Award, and the 2023 IEEE Communications Society Leonard G. Abraham Prize.
