New preprint: Space AI Infrastructure: Where the Edge Meets the Orbital Cloud.
Hi, I’m Zhanwei Wang.
I received my Ph.D. from HKU in 2025 under the supervision of Prof. Kaibin Huang, and my M.Eng. (2021) and B.Eng. (2018) from Xidian University, supervised by Prof. Min Sheng.
I work at the intersection of wireless networks and artificial intelligence—connecting distributed inference, learning, and foundation models from the edge to space networks.
