About Me

In July 2002, I graduated from the Hanoi University of Technology with B.S. degree in Telecommunications & Electronics Engineering. Before coming to UT Austin in August 2006, I had been with the Research Institute of Posts and Telecommunications in Hanoi, Vietnam as a research staff. In May 2008 I earned the M.S.E. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) . I am currently a PhD student in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering at UT Austin. My advisor for the studies at UT Austin is Professor Robert W. Heath, Jr. My current research interests include relay communications, wireless ad hoc networking, and software defined radio.
