Bio

Hi, I'm Amalinda from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰. ආයුබෝවන්! (āyubōwan!)— Wishes you a long and prosperous life in Sinhalese.
I am fortunate to be a PhD student advised by Professor. Mo Li. I'm a also an elected member of The Institution of Engineers, Singapore (IES), the Singapore signatory to the Washington Accord.

Research

I believe novelty strictly resides within simplicity.
Central to my interests is Wireless Communication. Specifically, physical layer tricks that enhance the co-existance & fairness of LPWANs. My current work is focused on bringing improvements to LoRa— a low-power LOng RAnge communication protocol for the Internet of Things. My interests also span across several closely related fields. These involve unconventional transceivers that do interesting things.
