Hi ! My name is Woon Hau. My research area is digital communications, mainly applying signal processing techniques on communication problems.

I will be leaving I2R soon. Please contact me via my IEEE email.

My Erdös number is 5.

I'm interested in collaboration with any like-minded persons. I'm happy to work with anyone with similar research interests, and it doesn't matter if you are still a student. Discussions help us improve. ;)

If you are a graduate student, please contact me if you are interested in intern oppotunities at I2R.

Navigation

Multiple Antenna or Multiple-Input/Multiple-Output(MIMO) Systems

My primary area of study. I primarily deal with problems occuring in MIMO systems, eg. detection, tracking, etc.. Also, I look at possibly crossover areas with cooperative, resource allocation and power control.

Cooperative Communications & Cross Layer Design

We look at cooperative and relay systems, and algorithms which can improve the quality of communications between the source and destination. One of my pet interests is to look at full rate relay systems.

Resource Allocation & Power Control

Primiarily, I look at the resource allocation for OFDMA systems and also power control for distributed systems.

Precoding/Prefiltering

Tomlinson Harashima Precoding, Time Domain Equalization(TEQ) for OFDM systems.

Things I would do if I have time...

Genomic signal processing, machine learning methods, game theory for financial analysis...
