January 2002 — December 2007 (6 years )
Designed a file-synchronization middleware for wireless data networks. Achieved network traffic reductions and speed-ups by using message optimization. Implemented in WinAPI and evaluated in a Sprint CDMA2000-1X (144 Kbps) network.
Designed a new middleware for application-unaware Web access in mobile environments. Reduced Web response time by performing W-AIMD in TCP and mode transfer with Thin-Client session. Evaluated performance in ns2 network simulator, Windows with VPC, and Linux with VNC.
Designed Web acceleration algorithms for low-bandwidth wireless links. Minimized Web transfer size and response time by performing prioritized object transmission, dynamic object scheduling, and connection management algorithms. Evaluated performance in ns2 simulator and implemented as a plug-in program for IE in WinAPI.

December 1998 — February 2001 (2 years 3 months)
Designed and evaluated a transmit power control (TPC) system for CDMA2000 data networks, which performs channel-capacity optimization by using LMS/RLS adaptive algorithms.
Designed and evaluated a constant amplitude multiplexing technique for multi-code W-CDMA, which minimizes nonlinear distortion and power loss by reducing PAPR of output multiplexed by WH-codes.
Designed and evaluated an iterative restoration scheme for nonlinear distortion in OFDM, which iteratively compensates low-BER components clipped by a nonlinear HPA.
