Hello! My name is Xin Wei (魏鑫). I received the B.S. degree in communication engineering from Chongqing University of Posts and Telecommunications in 2023, under the supervision of Associate Prof. Zhengqiang Wang. Currently, I am pursuing the M.S. degree in information and communication engineering with the National Key Laboratory of Wireless Communications, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, under the supervision of Prof. Weidong Mei. My research interests include movable antennas, wireless drone communications and convex optimization.
