About
Xingqi Yang is a leading researcher in underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC), with a focus on enabling robust, high-speed data links for autonomous underwater vehicles and swarm robotics. Yang’s key contributions center on designing omnidirectional and quasi-omnidirectional optical transmitters and transceivers that overcome the alignment challenges of traditional point-to-point underwater links. In a highly cited 2021 study (29 citations), Yang introduced a quasi-omnidirectional transmitter using a prismatic array of three high-power blue LED modules, achieving a data rate of 22 Mbps over a 10-meter channel in a standard swimming pool—a significant step toward practical, alignment-free UWOC. Building on this, Yang’s 2023 work (15 citations) demonstrated a fully omnidirectional system with six lens-free transceivers, enabling 5 Mbps communication over 7 meters, specifically designed for underwater swarm robotics. These innovations address critical limitations in underwater networking, where mobility and multidirectional coverage are essential. Yang’s research has been instrumental in advancing the feasibility of optical communication for real-world underwater applications, from environmental monitoring to autonomous exploration, and continues to influence the design of next-generation underwater optical systems.
