Kaibin Huang is a professor in the EEE department at The University of Hong Kong and a leading researcher in the area of Wirelessly Powered Communications (WPC). [1] [2]
Kaibin Huang received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin in 2008 under the supervision of Prof. Jeffrey G. Andrews and Prof. Robert W. Heath Jr. He obtained his B. Eng. (with 1st Class Honors) and M. Eng. degrees from the National University of Singapore in 1998 and 2000, respectively.
Huang started his career as a scientist in the year 2000, where he worked as an associate scientist at the Institute for Infocomm Research in Singapore. [3] At the Institute for Infocomm, Huang developed software defined radio systems. From 2004 to 2008, Huang returned to academia to pursue his Ph.D. degree with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at The University of Texas at Austin. During his tenure at The University of Texas at Austin, Huang interned at Freescale Semiconductor where he performed research on physical layer systems for IEEE 802.16e and 3GPP-LTE standards. During this time, Huang was also a recipient of the Motorola Partnerships in Research Grant, the University of Continuing Fellowship at The University of Texas at Austin, and the Best Student Paper (in Communication Systems category) award [4] at GLOBECOMM 2006. [5]
Upon obtaining his Ph.D., Huang dedicated a year to postdoctoral research as he became a Postdoc Research Fellow at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. After a year as a Research Fellow, Huang transitioned to an Assistant Professor position, at Yonsei University. As an assistant professor at Yonsei University, Huang received the Outstanding Teaching Award.
After dedicating almost 4 years to Yonsei University, Huang joined the Hong Kong Polytechnic University as an assistant professor. [6] Presently, Huang continues to serve as an adjunct professor at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University and works as assistant professor at the University of Hong Kong. His research interests include analysis and design networks using stochastic geometry and multi-antenna techniques.
Huang is involved in IEEE, frequently serving in the technical program committees for some of the IEEE conferences in wireless communications. Huang is an elected member of the SPCOM Technical Committee of the IEEE Signal Processing Society. An editor for the IEEE Journal on Selected Areas of Communications (JSAC), IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, and IEEE Wireless Communications Letters. Huang has also been technical chair for IEEE GLOBECOM 2014 Advance Topics in Wireless Communications Symposium of IEEE/CIC ICCC 2014, IEEE PIMRC 2015, IEEE VTC Spring 2013, Asilomar 2011, and IEEE WCNC 2011.
Huang is a co-author on more than 70 refereed conference and journal publications. [7] Huang is also co-author of two book chapters. [8] [9] In addition, Huang is co-inventor in at least 6 patents. [10]
4G is the fourth generation of cellular network technology, succeeding 3G and designed to support all-IP communications and broadband services, enabling a variety of data-intensive applications. A 4G system must meet the performance requirements defined by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) in IMT Advanced. 4G supports a range of applications, including enhanced mobile internet access, high-definition streaming, IP telephony, video conferencing, and the expansion of Internet of Things (IoT) applications.
Orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) is a multi-user version of the popular orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) digital modulation scheme. Multiple access is achieved in OFDMA by assigning subsets of subcarriers to individual users. This allows simultaneous low-data-rate transmission from several users.
Multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) is a set of multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) technologies for multipath wireless communication, in which multiple users or terminals, each radioing over one or more antennas, communicate with one another. In contrast, single-user MIMO (SU-MIMO) involves a single multi-antenna-equipped user or terminal communicating with precisely one other similarly equipped node. Analogous to how OFDMA adds multiple-access capability to OFDM in the cellular-communications realm, MU-MIMO adds multiple-user capability to MIMO in the wireless realm.
In radio, multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) is a method for multiplying the capacity of a radio link using multiple transmission and receiving antennas to exploit multipath propagation. MIMO has become an essential element of wireless communication standards including IEEE 802.11n, IEEE 802.11ac, HSPA+ (3G), WiMAX, and Long Term Evolution (LTE). More recently, MIMO has been applied to power-line communication for three-wire installations as part of the ITU G.hn standard and of the HomePlug AV2 specification.
IEEE 802.11ac-2013 or 802.11ac is a wireless networking standard in the IEEE 802.11 set of protocols, providing high-throughput wireless local area networks (WLANs) on the 5 GHz band. The standard has been retroactively labelled as Wi-Fi 5 by Wi-Fi Alliance.

The first smart antennas were developed for military communications and intelligence gathering. The growth of cellular telephone in the 1980s attracted interest in commercial applications. The upgrade to digital radio technology in the mobile phone, indoor wireless network, and satellite broadcasting industries created new opportunities for smart antennas in the 1990s, culminating in the development of the MIMO technology used in 4G wireless networks.

Multiple-input, multiple-output orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) is the dominant air interface for 4G and 5G broadband wireless communications. It combines multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) technology, which multiplies capacity by transmitting different signals over multiple antennas, and orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM), which divides a radio channel into a large number of closely spaced subchannels to provide more reliable communications at high speeds. Research conducted during the mid-1990s showed that while MIMO can be used with other popular air interfaces such as time-division multiple access (TDMA) and code-division multiple access (CDMA), the combination of MIMO and OFDM is most practical at higher data rates.

Per-user unitary rate control (PU2RC) is a multi-user MIMO (multiple-input and multiple-output) scheme. PU2RC uses both transmission pre-coding and multi-user scheduling. By doing that, the network capacity is further enhanced than the capacity of the single-user MIMO scheme.
