Yanchao Jiang

Yanchao Jiang is a Fixed-term Researcher (Law 240/10 art.24-A) at the Department of Electronics and Telecommunications (DET) of Politecnico di Torino, Italy, specializing in Telecommunications (IINF-03/A). She teaches Software-defined communication systems for Communications Engineering Master's programs (2022/23-2023/24) and Signals and systems for Electronic and Communications Engineering Bachelor's programs (2025/26).

Her research focuses on Optical Communications with emphasis on nonlinear interference estimation, power optimization in multi-band optical systems, and performance enhancement of long-haul transmission. She develops digital signal processing techniques using linear least squares and closed-form models (e.g., Enhanced Gaussian Noise model) to address challenges in C+L+S band optical networks, targeting high-capacity fiber transmission systems.

Recent publications (2024-2025) reveal a concentrated research trajectory on nonlinear interference mitigation through longitudinal power monitoring and closed-form modeling. Her work bridges theoretical DSP frameworks with practical optical system optimization, evidenced by publications in premier venues like Journal of Lightwave Technology, IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, and OFC/IPC conferences, demonstrating consistent contributions to optical transmission engineering.

No scientific awards or honors were documented in the source materials.

Teaching responsibilities include course collaboration for advanced communication engineering curricula, though no student advising roles or research grants were specified. Her work appears deeply integrated with Politecnico di Torino's telecommunications research infrastructure, particularly in optical network optimization projects.
