Vita   

From Oct. 1998 through Jan. 2002, Dr. Chang joined Computer and Communications Research Laboratories (CCL) at Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI), Hsinchu, Taiwan. During his early career time at CCL, he studied the high performance DSP architecture for real-time implementation of multimedia communication technology including H.263 video and G.723.1 low bitrate speech compression standards. Then, he worked on broadband cable modem transceiver technology, in which system simulations and architecture design are both involved. He also conducted two projects in advanced cable transceiver technology before leaving CCL.

In Feb. 2003, Dr. Chang joined the faculty of department of communication engineering at National Central University (NCU), Taoyuang, Taiwan. He keeps the pursuit of feasible algorithms, architecture, and implementation issues that meet industrial needs in wireless communications, especially in the fields of beyond 3G technologies. His recent research interests include transceiver architecture design, wireless OFDM technology, applications of multirate and adaptive signal processing, and FPGA rapid prototyping design on SoC platforms.
