Research

Application of linear algebra, optimization theories, and signal processing to Beyond 5G(B5G)/6G communications, with special focus on energy efficiency, hardware impairments and multiantenna systems. Current research interests include:

Collocated and distributed (cell-free) massive MIMO

Cooperative communications: two-way half- and full-duplex relaying channels

Resource allocation and energy efficiency in wireless networks

Full duplex communication

Green communication systems and networks

Machine learning for communications

Millimeter wave communication

Intelligent reflecting surfaces

Non-orthogonal multiple access

Multi-hop and multi-cell communication

Unmanned aerial vehicles (also known as drones) communication
