Associate Instructor

Prem Singh

Prem Singh received M. Tech and PhD degrees in Electrical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, India, in 2011 and 2020 respectively. He worked as Project Executive Officer on the Indigenous 5G TestBed project, where he developed hardware and software algorithms for an end-to-end 3GPP compliant 5G-NR Testbed. He was one of the finalists (top two) for the Indian National Academy of Engineering (INAE) Innovative Student Project Award 2021 at the doctoral level. He was awarded the Best PhD Thesis award in the 4th IEEE International Conference on Information and Communication Technology (CICT) 2020 organized by IIIT Kancheepuram, India. His research interests lie in the area of parameter estimation and transceiver design for 5G and beyond wireless technologies including Filter Bank Multicarrier (FBMC), Orthogonal Time-Frequency space (OTFS), massive MIMO and Millimeter-wave. His interests also lie in the area of designing practical 5G wireless systems using 3GPP standards. He is currently working as an assistant professor at IIIT Bangalore. Some of his key recent publications are below
