Welcome! I am currently a Professor at Department of Information Engineeing, The Chinese University of Hong Kong. I received my PhD degree from Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 2004. I am a Fellow of The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET). My current research interests focus on optimization and learning in 5G and 6G wireless communication systems.
I am currently a Member-at-Large of IEEE ComSoc Board of Governors, the Chair of the Steering Committee of IEEE Wireless Communications Letters, and a member of the Steering Committees of IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing, and IEEE SmartgridComm Conference. Previously, I served as the Editor-in-Chief of IEEE Open Journal of the Communications Society, a member of the IEEE ComSoc Fellow Evaluation Standing Committee, the Chair of the Executive Editor Committee of IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, and many years on the editorial boards of IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, IEEE Transactions on Communications, and Willey Security and Communications Networks Journal. I was the Lead Guest Editor of IEEE JSAC Special Issue on Communications and Data Analytics in Smart Grid, and Guest Editors of IEEE JSTSP Special Issue on Advanced Signal Processing for Reconfigurable Intelligent surface-aided 6G Networks, IEEE IoT Journal Special Issue on Internet-of-Things for Smart Energy Systems, and IEEE Communications Magazine, Feature Topic on New R&D Tools for Communications Research. I have been on the Organizing Committees of many top confereces, including IEEE GLOBECOM, ICC, VTC, SmartGridComm, ICCC, etc. I was the Founding Chair of IEEE ComSoc Technical Committee of Smart Grid Communications, a Co-Chair of IEEE ComSoc Multimedia Communications Technical Committee, Interest Group of Wireless Technology for Multimedia Communications, and the Founding Chair of IEEE ComSoc Graduate Of the Last Decade (GOLD) Committee. I served as an IEEE ComSoc Distinguished Lecturer in 2018-2021.
I am a co-recipient of 2021 and 2014 IEEE Comsoc Asia Pacific Outstanding Paper Awards, 2013 IEEE SmartGridComm Best Paper Award, 2011 IEEE Marconi Prize Paper Award on Wireless Communications and a recipient of 2011 Young Researcher Award of The Chinese University of Hong Kong. As the only winner from Engineering Science, I have won the Hong Kong Young Scientist Award 2006, conferred by the Hong Kong Institution of Science.
