Assistant Professor at the Division of Communication Systems
Linköping University
Sweden

Bio

I received the B.Eng. degree (Hons.) in electronics and telecommunications from University of Engineering and Technology, Vietnam National University, Hanoi, Vietnam, in 2014; and the M.Sc. degree (Hons.) and Ph.D. degree in wireless communications from CentraleSupélec, Paris-Saclay University, France, in 2016 and 2020, respectively. My Ph.D. thesis was also realized at the Mathematical and Algorithmic Sciences Laboratory, Paris Research Center, Huawei Technologies France.

Since September 2024, I have been an assistant professor at the Division of Communication Systems, Linköping University. I am also an adjunct lecturer at the University of Engineering and Technology, Vietnam National University Hanoi, Vietnam. From September 2020 to August 2024, I was a postdoctoral researcher at Communication Systems Group, Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden. My research interests include wireless communications, information theory, and decentralized learning, with an emphasis on massive random access, the privacy of federated learning, information freshness, MIMO, and noncoherent communications. I received the Honda Award for Young Engineers and Scientists (Honda Y-E-S Award) in Vietnam in 2013, the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) Individual Fellowship in 2021, and the “Signal, Image & Vision Ph.D. Thesis Prize” by Club EEA, GRETSI and GdR-ISIS, France in 2021.
