معرفی
Zheng Chen is an Associate Professor (Docent) at the Division of Communication Systems, Department of Electrical Engineering, Linköping University, Sweden. She has been with the university since 2017 and is actively involved in research, teaching, and academic leadership.
- B.Sc. in Optoelectronics, Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST), China (2011)
- M.Sc., CentraleSupélec, Université Paris-Saclay, France (2013)
- Ph.D., CentraleSupélec, Université Paris-Saclay, France (2016)
Her research lies at the intersection of wireless communications and distributed machine learning, with a focus on stochastic geometry, decentralized intelligence, and information dissemination over complex networks. She investigates how to jointly optimize communication and computation in wireless systems to support efficient and reliable AI at the network edge.
Her recent publications emphasize communication-efficient decentralized learning, over-the-air aggregation, and resource allocation in MIMO and device-to-device networks. These works reflect a strong trend toward enabling intelligent processing in future 6G systems with minimal latency and energy consumption.
She has received prestigious recognition including the IEEE Communications Society Young Author Best Paper Award (2020) and serves as an Associate Editor for IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, IEEE Transactions on Communications, and IEEE Transactions on Green Communications and Networking.
Zheng Chen leads multiple major research initiatives, including a Swedish Research Council (VR) Starting Grant, a WASP PhD project, a Zenith project grant, and a Knut and Alice Wallenberg research grant on 'Turning the air into an AI computer'. She supervises several Ph.D. students both as main and co-supervisor and teaches Master-level courses in Digital Communication and Information Networks.
She is an active member of the Communication Systems (KS) division, collaborating with a broad team of researchers and students at Linköping University, including Professor Erik G. Larsson, with whom she frequently co-authors.
