Dr. Xianghao Yu received his B.Eng. degree in information engineering from Southeast University, Nanjing, China, in 2014, and his Ph.D. degree in electronic and computer engineering from The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), Hong Kong, China, in 2018.
From 2018 to 2020, he was an Alexander von Humboldt Research Fellow with the Institute for Digital Communications, Friedrich-AlexanderUniversity Erlangen-Nuremberg (FAU), Erlangen, Germany. He is currently an Assistant Professor with the Department of Electrical Engineering, City University of Hong Kong (CityU), Hong Kong. Before joining CityU, he was a Research Assistant Professor with the Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering, HKUST. He has co-authored the book Stochastic Geometry Analysis of Multi-Antenna Wireless Networks (Springer, 2019). His research interests include millimeter-wave communications, intelligent reflecting surface-assisted communications, and wireless artificial intelligence.
Dr. Yu received the Best Paper Award from the IEEE Global Communications Conference (GLOBECOM) in 2017 and the IEEE GLOBECOM 2019 and the Young Author Best Paper Award from the 2018 IEEE Signal Processing Society. He was also recognized as an Exemplary Reviewer of the IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications in 2017 and 2018 and an Exemplary Reviewer of the IEEE Transactions on Communications in 2021.
