Hi, I’m currently third-year Ph.D. candidate at Xtian Group, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, where I have the honor to be supervised by Prof. Xiaohua Tian.
I received my bachelor’s degree from the School of Electronics and Information, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi’an, China, in 2023. (Rank: 1/98).
My previous research primarily focused on the design of Hybrid Active-Passive Communication Systems for Ambient IoT. Currently, I am exploring the application of LLM-powered Agentic Systems to tackle domain-specific challenges in the radio field. Moving forward, I aspire to delve deeply into next-generation wireless embodied AI and its practical applications.

🚀 Projects

International SparkLink Alliance
- We designed a novel backscatter communication prototype system based on concurrent OFDMA. The system integrates comprehensive modules for energy harvesting, synchronization, wake-up receiver, and backscattering, achieving concurrent transmission for 128 tags. Our ultimate objective is to develop a robust alternative to RFID and integrate this technology into the International SparkLink Alliance standard system.

- We independently designed and built two transformable dance robots from scratch. One was a bipedal humanoid robot inspired by a lion, and the other was a quadrupedal heteromorphic robot designed in the shape of a jellyfish. We showcased these platforms at the 2021 China Robot Competition and proudly won the National Champion in the Dance Robot category. [bilibili]
