My research interest includes:

MAC Layer

• Cognitive Radio Network
• Self Organized Topology Networks: Ad hoc, mesh, etc.

PHY Layer

• Multi-Access Technology: IDMA(with MIMO beamforming)
• MIMO: Random Beamforming and Zero Forcing Beamforming
• UnitarySTM
• SuperpositionCoding
  

Tips for researching in this field:

• it is quite important to choose the right direction
• the tech must be useful within this ten years
• it is novel.
• it must be achievable.
• if you are not sure about whether you are in the right way, follow a master
• goto the homepages of the masters ((David Tse(MIMO), Ping Li(IDMA), Heather Zheng(Cognitive Network))
  
• you can visit the websites of those leaders (such as(Bell Labs)frequently
• you can search for the latest patents on US Patents, World Patents, or the patent office of your local country (China Patents)
• you can also retrieve the published papers on important conferences ((IEEExplore,,ACM)

Wireless Trends:

• A Massachusetts company reinvents the cellular base station::Winner: Radio Revolutionaries

-- Steps like this: Vanu, a small Cambridge, Mass., company, says that this year it will begin selling the first cellular base station that can simultaneously process two waveforms—CDMA (short for code division multiple access) and GSM (global system for mobile communications)—all in software running on off-the-shelf computer servers.
