Hey, this is Yang. 

My current research interest is Joint Communication and Sensing, with a focus on human and mobility.

My major research experience is in (array) antennas and radio propagation (modeling, measurement, EM computation), as well as signal processing for parameter estimation (double-directional angular, delay/range, doppler, etc.). 

Plz find more info about me, here www.ymiao.info
