Hyeontae Joo
About
I received the B.S.E. degree from the University of Seoul, Seoul, South Korea, in 2017, and I am currently pursuing the Ph.D. degree with the School of Electrical Engineering, Korea University, Seoul. I worked as a research engineer in Hyundai Motor Group from 2017 to 2020. My research interests is wireless connectivity and UAV networking including protocol optimization, network virtualization, network modeling and network simulation. I currently focus on boosting the performance of networks with software-defined networking (SDN) approach and reinforcement learning (RL) techniques.
