Sungwoo Lee
Sung-Woo Lee received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in electrical engineering from Kookmin University, Seoul, Korea, in 1998 and 2000, respectively, the M.S. degree from Arizona State University, Tempe, in 2003, and is currently working toward the Ph.D. degree in electrical and computer engineering at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. His research interests include computational electromagnetics, antenna analysis and design, semiconductor device modeling, and RF/microwave circuit design. His current research is focused on the diversities on the mobile antennas systems.
Yunqiang Yang
Yunqiang received his B.S. degree in EE from the Zhejiang University, China, in 2001 and a M.S. degree in EE from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville in 2003. He is currently a Ph.D. candidate in electrical engineering at University of Tennessee.
Yunqiang's research interests are in the design of Ultra-Wide Band system and the associated electromagnetic and digital processing problems.
Songnan Yang
Songnan Yang received his B.S.E.E. degree from Zhejiang University, China, in July 2003, and he is currently working toward a Ph.D. degree at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. His main research interests include the analysis and design of antennas and arrays for mobile platforms including wireless and DBS applications.
Mr. Yang was a recipient of the 2007 IEEE MTT-S Graduate Fellowship. He was the winner of the 2008 IEEE Radio and Wireless Symposium Student Paper Competition, winner of the student paper competition of the 30th Antenna Applications Symposium and 3rd place winner of the 2008 USNC/URSI National Radio Science Meeting Student Paper Competition,. He received the URSI Young Scientist Award of the 2007 International Electromagnetics Theory Symposium. He was also the recipient of the 2007 Chinese Government Award for Outstanding Self-Financed Students Abroad and the 2006 University of Tennessee Chancellor¡¯s Citations Award for Extraordinary Professional Promise. In the summers of 2005 and 2006, he worked as an intern at Intel Corp, where he characterized the performance of various wireless radios collocated on a multi-radio platform, studied interference mitigation schemes, and developed reconfigurable antennas for laptops. Mr Yang has more than 20 refereed journal and conference publications in the area of antenna/arrays and passive components. He also has two pending U.S. Patents.
Joshua L. Wilson
My research currently focuses on high-power rf and microwave structures for application in charged particle accelerators. In particular, I am investigating high-power tunable structures employing ferroelectric and ferromagnetic materials that could be used in these accelerators. This research is done through a collaboration between the Spallation Neutron Source in Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the University of Tennessee.
Ceming Zhang
Cemin Zhang was born in Chengdu China, in 1978. He received the B.S. and M.S. degree in Electronic Engineering from Zhejiang University, Hangzhou China, in 2001 and 2004, respectively. In 2003, he was an intern with Wireless Department of UTStarcom Co. Ltd, Hangzhou, China, where he was involved with development of antenna switch and test for mobile base station. In earlier 2004, he was with Intel Product Ltd., Shanghai, China, where he was involved with developing and testing of novel flash memory product.
He is currently working toward the Ph.D. degree in electrical and computer engineering at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. His current research interests include development of microwave/millimeter-wave circuits, broadband antenna, high speed FPGA, and UWB radar system in biomedical applications.
Song Lin
Song Lin received his B.S. (2001) and M.S. (2003) degrees in Electrical Engineering from Dongnan University, Nanjing, China. He is currently working toward the Ph.D. degree in electrical and computer engineering at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
Chunna Zhang
Chunna received her B.S. and M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from China. She joined the group in 2005 as a Ph.D. student
Her research interest is in the areas of antenna and RFIC design.
