Areas of Research Interests:
● Civil and industrial applications of aerospace technology
His research group has long focused on the integrated industrial applications of aerospace technology. The main research fields include the industrial chain applications of the Tiantong satellite and the industrial applications of plasma technology (such as personal disinfection products, skin management products, new combustion devices, and plasma chemical applications). The research group has established the Cross-domain Converged Private Network Communication Engineering Center in Xi'an, which undertakes the industrial transformation of aerospace technology, incubation of student-led entrepreneurial projects, and integration with the industrial chain. These research fields are suitable for students with strong organizational abilities, practical experience in innovation and entrepreneurship, or those who wish to start their own businesses. (Familiarity with enterprises and product development processes provides a significant edge for graduates to enter enterprises.)
● New aerospace electronic technologies and applications
The research group has long been involved in aerospace test flight missions and promotes the application and development of new aerospace electronic technologies by planning flight missions once a year. The research fields include wireless information interconnection of flight vehicles, non-contact electrical separation interfaces, highly reliable aerospace software systems, new sensing and detection technologies, electrical system design for flight vehicles, high-real-time hardware-in-the-loop simulation, power electronics, and wireless power transfer technology. Currently, all achievements have been validated through flight tests or put into application. These research fields are suitable for students with strong hands-on abilities and an interest in the electronic system and hardware/software design, or those who wish to participate in aerospace missions. (Familiarity with aerospace processes provides a significant edge for graduates to enter research institutes.)
● Multi-domain intermediate communications in extreme environments
Humans can extend the reach of information beyond the solar system, yet still face many extreme environments where the transmission of even 1 bit of information is impossible. These environments share a common characteristic of being surrounded by high-loss media, such as the "blackout" issue in flight vehicles, deep-sea and far-sea communication and navigation, and underground communications. The research focuses on new mechanisms and methods for electromagnetic propagation and information transmission across high-loss media and multiple domains (ground-sea-air), strong electromagnetic signal excitation and information loading technologies, ultra-weak signal detection technology, novel electromagnetic materials and antennas, and communication technology in extreme environments. The goal is to bridge "information islands" and facilitate information transmission. These research fields are suitable for students with a strong foundation in mathematics and physics and a broad interest in science. (They are well-suited for those with a solid academic foundation and a focus on cutting-edge research, ideal for further studies.)
