معرفی
Fumiaki Maehara is a Professor at Waseda University's School of Science and Engineering since 2012. His research focuses on wireless communication systems, with expertise in orbital angular momentum (OAM) multiplexing, MIMO techniques, and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA). He holds a Doctor of Engineering from Waseda University and has been recognized with multiple awards from IEICE and IEEE.
- PhD in Electrical Engineering, Waseda University (2001)
- Master of Engineering, Waseda University (1995)
His research interests include wireless signal processing, digital communications, and advanced antenna systems. Recent work emphasizes OAM-MIMO interference cancellation, FTN signaling, and hybrid NOMA/OMA resource allocation. He has co-authored over 120 papers with 710+ Google Scholar citations (h-index 12).
Key research trends involve mitigating beam axis misalignment in OAM systems, optimizing guard intervals for UAV communications, and applying deep learning to hybrid multiple access schemes. His work bridges theoretical analysis with practical implementations in 5G/6G and satellite communication systems.
- Scientific Awards: IEICE ComEX Top Downloaded Letter Award (2024), IEEE Senior Member (2021), IEICE Distinguished Contributions Awards (multiple years)
Maehara's students include Shuhei Saito, Hirofumi Suganuma, and Kayo Ogawa, who frequently appear as co-authors in his publications. He has secured grants for projects analyzing OAM propagation, MU-MIMO optimization, and interference management in dense networks.
