Biography
Ilku Nam received the B.S. degree (Top Honor) in electronics engineering from Yonsei University, in Seoul, Korea, in 1999 and the MS. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from KAIST, in Daejeon, Korea, in 2001 and 2005, respectively. His Ph.D. work at KAIST was related to low-power CMOS RF transceiver integrated circuits (IC) design for wireless short-range sensor network and low-power IoT applications.
From 2005 to 2007, he was a Senior Engineer with RF development team, Samsung Electronics, Korea, where he participated in the development and mass production of the world's first multi-standard multi-band mobile digital TV tuner ICs supporting DVB-H/T, T-DMB, and ISDB-T/H. In 2007, he joined the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Pusan National University, Busan, Korea, where he is currently a Professor. From 2013 to 2014, he was a visiting advisory professor at communication solution team, Samsung Electronics, Korea, where he was involved in the design of 5G millimeter-wave circuits and 60 GHz WiGig up/down-conversion mixer and LO buffer, etc. His research interests include CMOS RF/mmWave/analog integrated circuits, RF system design, and RF security for wireless communications such as 5G mobile systems and sensing systems.
