About
Research Interests
- Information Theory: ultimate performance limits of multi-terminal networks.
— Cache-aided networks.
— Distributed Coded Computing and Coded Data Shuffling.
— Index Coding: Pliable, Decentralized and Secure.
— Wireless interactive (cooperative, or cognitive or with feedback) interference networks.
— Asynchronous massive access and sensor/IoT systems. - Communication Theory: co-design of digital communication systems and sensing radar systems, and 5G systems.
— Low-latency high-reliability communications.
— Coexistence of communication and radar systems. - Biomedical AI: design of on-demand / adaptive / closed-loop feedback-controlled Deep Brain Stimulator (DBS) for patients with pathological tremor (i.e., Parkinson’s Disease and Essential Tremor). Potential application to epilepsy, depression, chronic pain, etc.
