EXPERIENCE
----------
Research Associate, Department of ECE, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL, 2009 – 2010
---
* Developed high resolution signal processing methods for synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) image and the SAR-based ground moving target indication (GMTI).
* Designed sparse reconstruction algorithm for SAR image and SAR-based GMTI. Significant reduced the sample rate of the SAR data.
* Developed innovative signal processing methods for the underwater Doppler-sensitive active sonar.
* Wrote proposal and annual/final technical reports for research grants.
Research Associate, Department of ECE, Duke University, Durham, NC, 2007 – 2009
---
* Investigated the compressive sensing theory and the applications in the non-uniform array signal processing, the random media microwave measurement, and the microwave image.
* Applied compressive sensing theory to synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) image to reduce the data sample rate.
* Developed 3D-FDTD codes using both C and Matlab for the simulation of the random media microwave imaging.
* Developed an innovative algorithm to reduce the computation cost the radar cross-section (RCS) simulation. Developed a Matlab code to combine this algorithm with FEEKO, which speed up the computation time more than 10 times than the traditional way to calculate the RCS of targets.
Research Assistant, Department of ECE, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL, 2003 –2007
---
* Improved the image reconstruction methods for the microwave imaging and the microwave induced thermal acoustic imaging.
* Improved the beampattern design methods for the ultrasound and microwave hyperthermia treatment of breast cancer.
* Developed several C codes for the electromagnetic, acoustic, and thermal simulation of complex breast models in breast cancer diagnose and treatment.
* Designed several data-adaptive beamforming methods for the image reconstruction of breast cancer.
Associate Scientist, Temasek Lab, National University of Singapore, Singapore, 2002 –2003
---
* Investigated the wave-material interactions of ultra-wide band electromagnetic pulses and complex PCBs/devices.
* Created 2D and 3D FDTD software packages for electromagnetic simulation using C++ language.
Lecturer, Department of EE, Xian Jiaoting University, Xian, China, 1997 –2002
* Investigated the parallel implementation of the FEM and MoM methods using MPI.
* Taught graduate course “Computational Electromagnetics”, including theory and implementation of FEM, FDTD, and MoM, and the usage of EDA softwares such as Ansoft HFSS and Ansoft Ensemble.
* Implemented the finite element – boundary conduction (FE-BI) method using C language for the investigation of the radiation characteristics of arbitrary cavity backed antenna mounted on conducting cone.
