Principal investigator

Dr. Sanghoek Kim (IEEE Senior Member) received the B.S. degree with a double major in Electrical Engineering and Mathematical Science from Seoul National University, Korea, in 2007, and the M.S./Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University, USA, in 2013. He was the recipient of Stanford Fellowship and Kwanjeong Scholarship during the study. After the graduation, he has worked as a signal/power integrity engineer at Qualcomm and as a mmWave system engineer at SiBeam. In 2016, he joined the EE department of Kyung Hee University, where he is now an associate professor. In 2021, he received the Young Researcher Award from the Korean Institute of Electromagnetic Engineering and Science. Currently, his research focuses on applications of radio-frequency technology and electromagnetics theory in wireless interface with bio-implantable devices, wireless power transfer, and radar technologies.

Research professor

Dr. Shakti Singh Chauhan received B. Tech. degree from UKTU, Dehradun in 2010 and Master degree from GBPUAT in 2012. He received his Ph. D. from Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi. He received scholarship from Meity, the governant of India during Ph. D. After graduation he has worked as an antenna design engineer with Steradian Semiconductors (Renesas Company). His research area is the millimeter-wave antenna design.
