Besides teaching and researching, Li, a senior member of IEEE, initiates, supports and participates in numerous international activities to promote the engineering profession and education.
DR. Michael McGuire
Michael McGuire received his B.Eng. in Computer Engineering from the University of Victoria in 1995. He remained at that university until 1997 to complete a Masters degree in Electrical Engineering, developing Fuzzy Logic based algorithms for hand-off control in wireless cellular networks, After his Masters, he spent two years at Lucent Technologies at Holmdel, NJ. His projects included testing the first generation of multi-protocol cellular telephones and developing fault detection and management software for high capacity optical transmission systems. From 1999 until 2003, Michael enrolled at the University of Toronto to complete his PhD with the Digital Signal Processing group. After the completion of his doctorate, he then joined the faculty of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Victoria. His research interests are signal processing for communications, model-based filtering, and non-parametric estimation. He currently holds grants from the National Science and Engineering Research Council of Canada as well as research contracts for industrial partners. Dr. McGuire is a member of the IEEE Communications, Computer, and Signal Processing Societies.
