¡@¡@Yo-Shen Lin was born in Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C. in 1973. He received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in electrical engineering and Ph.D. degree in communication engineering from National Taiwan University, Taipei in 1996, 1998, and 2003, respectively.
¡@¡@From 1998 to 2001, he was a RF engineer with Acer Communication and Multimedia Inc., Taipei. From 2001-2003, he was a hardware engineer with Chi-Mei Communication System Inc., Taipei. In August 2003, he joined the Graduate Institute of Communication Engineering, National Taiwan University, as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow, and became an Assistant Professor in August 2004. Since August 2005, he has been with the Department of Electrical Engineering, National Central University, Taoyuan, Taiwan, R.O.C., where he is currently a Distinguished Professor. He was a Guest Researcher with the Ferdinand-Braun-Institut, Leibniz-Institut für Höchstfrequenztechnik, Berlin, Germany from Sept. to Nov. 2008, and a Visiting Scholar with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of California at San Diego, La Jolla, CA, USA, from Aug. 2014 to Aug. 2015. His research interests include the design and analysis of miniature microwave passive circuits and RF transceiver module for wireless communication systems.
¡@¡@Dr. Lin was the recipient of the Best Paper Award of the 2001 Asia-Pacific Microwave Conference (APMC), Taipei, the URSI Young Scientist Award presented at the 2005 URSI General Assembly, New Delhi, India, the URSI EMT-S Young Scientist Award presented at the 2007 URSI International Electromagnetic Symposium (EMT-S), Ottawa, Canada, and the Best Symposium Paper Award of the 2015 Asia-Pacific International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility (APEMC), Taipei.

Research Summary

Due to the stringent requirements on size and cost of mobile communication devices, our research is aimed at the design of miniaturized and highly-integrated RF frontends, so as to achieve the goal of system on chip (SoC) and system in package (SiP). Currently, we focus on the design of novel multi-functional RF circuits, and the development of ultra compact RF components and modules based on various advanced process technologies including the low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC), thin-film IPD, and Si & GaAs IC processes. The target is to combine the advantages of design-based and process-based integration technologies to achieve the optimal design of RF front-ends for wireless communication/radio astronomy/wireless sensing applications.
