| Anding Zhu was born in Anhui, China. He received the B.E. degree in Telecommunication Engineering from NorthChina ElectricPower University, Baoding, China, in 1997, the M.E. degree in Computer Applications from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (BUPT), Beijing, China, in 2000, and the Ph.D. degree in Electronic Engineering from University College Dublin (UCD), Dublin, Ireland, in 2004. He is currently a Lecturer with the School of Electrical, Electronic and Communications Engineering at University College Dublin.
|
| His research interests include high-frequency nonlinear system modelling and device characterisation techniques with a particular emphasis on Volterra-series-based behavioural modelling and digital linearisation for RF power amplifiers. He is also interested in wireless and RF system design, digital signal processing, and nonlinear system identification algorithms. |
