ECE Seminar - Q&A Seminar on Fluid Antennas Systems (FAS)
Fluid antenna systems (FAS) have attracted significant attention over the last year. Prof. Kit Wong, the founder of FAS, will host this seminar and provide the background to FAS and give some brief examples of why FAS is important for 6G. He will then open up the session to Q&A. Questions such as why FAS is important, why it outperforms other techniques and why it outperforms MIMO and selection diversity will be answered! He will also discuss further directions for FAS research.
(Kit) Kai-Kit Wong was born in Hong Kong and received the BEng, the MPhil, and the PhD degrees, all in Electrical and Electronic Engineering, from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Hong Kong, in 1996, 1998, and 2001, respectively. He is Chair Professor of Wireless Communications at the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering, University College London after taking appointments at University of Hong Kong and University of Hull and visiting positions at Lucent Technologies, Bell Labs and Stanford University. His current research centers around 6G and beyond mobile communications. He is one of the early researchers who proposed multiuser MIMO. His first paper on multiuser MIMO was published in WCNC 2000 which appeared to be the first ever research paper on this topic. He is Fellow of IEEE and IET. He served as the Editor-in-Chief for IEEE Wireless Communications Letters between 2020 and 2023.
