Prof. Zhaocheng Wang

IEEE Fellow/AAIA Fellow/AIIA Fellow/IET Fellow

Tsinghua University, China

Biography: Prof. Zhaocheng Wang, Tenured Professor and Doctoral Supervisor at Tsinghua University, is an IEEE Fellow, AAIA Fellow, AIIA Fellow, and IET Fellow. He is recognized as a Highly Cited Researcher by Clarivate Analytics in the Web of Science, and has been selected as a National Leading Talent (Shenzhen). His long-term research focuses on millimeter-wave/terahertz communications, artificial intelligence, and wireless optical communications for 6G, supporting applications such as high-definition video, virtual reality, and holographic imaging. Key academic contributions include: 1) proposing orthogonal pilots in both time and frequency domains for OFDM, enhancing system diversity performance, which has been adopted by international standards including WiFi and IEEE 802.11; 2) introducing the concept of multi-beam adaptive reflection tracking for millimeter waves, achieving a breakthrough in overcoming technical bottlenecks such as signal blockage by the human body and ensuring robust reception for high-quality video user experience; 3) developing the layered ACO-OFDM (LACO-OFDM) modulation scheme for wireless optical communication, which effectively utilizes the traditionally unused even subcarriers in conventional ACO-OFDM, nearly doubling spectral efficiency without requiring DC bias. He has led projects under the National 973 Program, 863 Program, Key Projects of the National Natural Science Foundation of China, as well as industry collaborations with Qualcomm, Huawei, Sony, ZTE, and NTT DOCOMO. He holds 66 authorized U.S./European patents (including 23 as the first inventor) and 45 authorized Chinese patents, with several U.S./European patents adopted by international standards such as WiFi. He has published over 300 SCI-indexed papers in journals including Nature sub-journals and IEEE JSAC, accumulating over 13,000 citations on Web of Science and 23,000 citations on Google Scholar. His awards include the First Prize of the National Scientific and Technological Progress Award, First Prize of the Chinese Institute of Electronics Science and Technology Award, First Prize of the Guangdong Provincial Science and Technology Award, and First Prize of the Chongqing Municipal Science and Technology Award.
