Bio

I am fortunate to be a PhD student advised by Professor. Mo Li of Nanyang Technological University. I was formerly, a Visiting Lecturer at UoVT and an Assistant Lecturer at SLIIT. I'm a also full member of The Institution of Engineers, Singapore (IES).

Research

I believe novelty 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. In addition, my interests also span across several closely related fields. These include unconventional trancievers that employ programmable logic to do interesting things.
