Wireless Communications Laboratory (WICL) was founded in September 2015 by Professor Bang Chul Jung in the Department of Electronics Engineering, Chungnam National University. We carry out advanced research on various cutting-edge technologies in wireless communications, statistical signal processing, machine learning, and information theory. In general, we apply mathematical tools such as linear algebra, mathematical analysis, statistics and probability theory, optimization theory, and information theory to analyze performances of the developed technologies. Our research interests include 6G mobile communications, physical-layer security, mmWave communications, analog/digital/hybrid beamforming, compressed sensing, wireless localization, military communication systems, radar signal processing, spectrum sharing techniques, statistical machine learning, sparse Bayesian learning, interference management, spectrum engineering, etc.

WICL is led by Prof. Bang Chul Jung who is the recipient of the 5th IEEE Communication Society Asia-Pacific Outstanding Young Researcher Award in 2011, KICS Haedong Young Scholar Award in 2015, and the 29th KOFST Science and Technology Best Paper Award in 2019. Prof. Jung has served as an Associate Editor of IEEE Vehicular Technology Magazine since May 2020. He has also served as Associate Editor of MDPI Energies/Electronics since 2020 and IEICE Transactions on Fundamentals of Electronics, Communications, and Computer Sciences since 2018.
