Biography

I am an Ph.D. student at the University at Buffalo (UB). I received my Bachelor of Engineering degree in Measurement Control Technology and Instruments from Beijing Normal University Zhuhai in 2020, and Master of Science degree from UB in 2023. I am currently working under the supervision of my advisors Dr. Nicholas Mastronarde and Dr. Zhangyu Guan, in Multimedia Communications and Systems Lab (MCSL) and Wireless Intelligent Networking and Security (WINGS) Labs at UB, with research interests in Large-Scale Realtime Digital Twin Construction and Network Simulation.

Current Research Areas

Large-Scale Realtime Digital Twin Construction and Network Simulation: SLAM systems for Digital Twin Construction and Autonomous UAVs
