Biography
Dr. Yan Zhang was born in Shandong, China, in 1983.
His B.S. degree in information engineering was received from the Beijing
Institute of Technology, China, in 2005. He received a Ph.D. degree in
communication and information systems from Tsinghua University, China, in 2010.
During August 2009 and November 2009, he was a visiting research student at the
Department of Electrical and Information Technology, Lund University, Sweden.
From 2010, he served as an assistant researcher (postdoc) in the Department of
Electronic Engineering, Tsinghua University.
He has
been a lecturer in School of Information and Electronics, Beijing Institute of
Technology since June 2013. Since August 2014, he is a reaserch associate at
Heriot Watt University working on the project "Non-Stationary IMT-A MIMO
Channel Models with Time-Varying Parameters" under the supervision
of Prof. Cheng-Xiang Wang.
His current research interests include wireless channel measurement and
modelling, wireless positioning, massive MIMO, and 5G wireless communication
networks. He has published over 20 papers in refereed journals and conference
proceedings.
He was served as the guest editor of the special issues
in International Journal of Antenna and Propagation in 2011, 2013 and 2014. He
was the organizing and web Chair for 1st International ICST Workshop on C-RAN
(C-RAN2012) and the TPC member for the 13th IEEE International Conference on
Communication Technology. He also served as reviewers of IEEE Trans. on Ant.
& Prop, IEEE Trans. on Wireless Com., IEEE APL, VTC, etc.
