PhD student at HITSZ and A*STAR

Welcome to Aimin Li (黎爱民)’s Website

Welcome to Aimin Li’s website! I am currently a fourth-year Ph.D student at Harbin Institute of Technology (Shenzhen), China. In HITSZ, my research is supervised by Prof. Shaohua Wu. Currently, I am also a visiting student at Institute for Infocomm Research (I2R), A*STAR in Singapore, where I am supervised by Prof. Sumei Sun.

I received my Bachelor’s degree in the Department of Electronic Engineering, Harbin Institute of Technology (Shenzhen) in 2020. I was also a visiting student at University of California (Riverside) in USA in 2017. I am a positive young volunteer for some IEEE events, such as IEEE VTC-Spring 2024 Singapore, IEEE 6G Summit Singapore 2023, and IEEE 6G Summit Singapore 2024; and a reviewer for some IEEE top-tier journals and conferences, such as IEEE TIT, IEEE JSAC, IEEE TWC, IEEE ISIT, IEEE TNNLS, IEEE TVT, IEEE Communications Letters, etc.

Education

Research Interest

  1. Performance analysis of channel coding in the Finite Block-Length (FBL) regime. My research work about Spinal codes has been published in IEEE ISIT, IEEE Transactions on Communications, IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, and IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology.
  2. Performance modeling and optimization of URLLC-oriented physical-layer communications, with a specific interest in Age of Information (AoI) analysis and optimizations. My research work about AoI has been published in IEEE Globecom, IEEE Transactions on Communications, IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications and IEEE Journal on Selected Areas of Information Theory.
  3. Goal-oriented and semantic communications. My research work about goal-oriented and semantic communications has been published in IEEE Transactions on Communications, IEEE Wireless Communications, IEEE Proc. ITW, and IEEE WCNC.
