Dr. Lee joined the Electrical and Computer Engineering department at Gannon University in Fall 2007. Before joining Gannon, he was on the faculty of the Department of Electrical Engineering at the University of Arkansas. Prior to that, he had been employed at Samsung Electronics, Bell Atlantic Personal Communications, and Nortel Networks, and had worked on various research and development projects for more than 10 years. Dr. Lee's research areas of interests include wireless multiple access techniques, spread spectrum communications, channel propagation, antenna array processing, interference cancellation, radio link design and performance analysis, digital signal processing, and medium access control and radio link control techniques for terrestrial wireless networks.
