Bio

Song Noh received the B.S. in electrical engineering from Soongsil University, Seoul, Korea, in 2008 and the M.S. degree from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), Daejeon, Korea, in 2010. He received the Ph.D. degree in electrical and computer engineering from Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN in 2015. He was System Engineer in the Next Generation and Standards (NGS) of Intel, Hillsboro, OR, USA. He now joins Incheon National University, Incheon, Korea. His research interests are in the design and analysis of large-scale antenna systems and cross-layer optimization approaches towards next generation radio access networks.

Mr. Noh was a co-recipient of the Communication Theory Symposium Best Paper Award at the 2014 Global Communication Conference (Globecom) and the Silver prize in the 21st HumanTech Paper Contest sponsored by Samsung in 2015. He was awarded Talented Scholar Fellowship from Soongsil University in 2012 - 2013. He was recognized as an exemplary reviewer of the IEEE Transactions on Communications in 2015, and received Intel NGS and Intel WCR divisional awards in 2017.
