Intelligent Devices, Electromagnetics and Antennas Lab
Welcome to IDEAS Lab @ Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
We develop intelligent electromagnetic devices, adaptive antennas, sensing technologies, and future wireless systems.
About the Principal Investigator
I am Yujie Zhang, currently an Assistant Professor at the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore, where I lead the IDEAS Lab.
I received my Bachelor’s degree in Optoelectronic Information Science and Engineering from Huazhong University of Science and Technology in 2017, and my Ph.D. degree in Electronic and Computer Engineering from The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) in 2021, under the supervision of Prof. Ross Murch (IEEE Fellow).
I worked as a Post-Doctoral Fellow at HKUST from 2021–2023, and a Research Fellow at the National University of Singapore, supervised by Prof. Xudong Chen (IEEE Fellow).
My Group’s Research
My research lies in antennas and applied electromagnetics, with a focus on creating novel electromagnetic technologies for a better world. My group explores:
- Reconfigurable Intelligent Antennas and Surfaces
- Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) Wireless Systems
- MIMO Antenna Design
- Pixel Antenna Design and Optimization
- RF and Microwave Circuit Design
- Electromagnetic Inverse Design
- Inverse Scattering and RF Imaging
- RF Energy Harvesting and Wireless Power Transfer
- Physics-Assisted Artificial Intelligence
- 6G Wireless Communications and Internet-of-Things Systems
Openings
We have multiple Ph.D., postdoctoral, research assistant, and visiting student or scholar positions. We welcome self-motivated researchers to join our group.
