Description My work in massive MIMO showed for the first time in a realistic setting, the direct tradeoff in performance when fitting increasing numbers of antennas in fixed physical spaces, to optimize the true power efficiency of massive MIMO transmitters. My work for the first time explored the concept of constructive interference for cognitive radio with the aim of exploiting interference as useful signal power. This has led to new precoding designs where a wide range of scalable tradeoffs between performance and complexity have been offered. My collaborative work in the European project CROWN project showed for the first time the design of adaptive transmit beampatterns for an electronically steerable parasitic antenna transceiver which relies on a single RF front to meet the low cost, power beamforming solution and sensing performance. These works have been taken by our industrial partners for further development of 5G standard and products.
