Pin-Han Ho is a Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Waterloo.
His current research interests cover a wide range of topics in broadband wired and wireless communication networks, including survivable network design, wireless communications, cyber-physical systems, and Internet of things. Professor Ho and his PhD student Dr. James She invented Wireless Media Express™ to rectify the problem of ‘wireless channel fading’. Wireless channel fading is the intrinsic wireless communication systems problem that limits wireless service providers from effectively multicasting to intended receivers. Wireless Media Express™ generates an intelligent multicast signal that maximizes the video quality for all intended receivers, regardless of receiver channel quality status. This technology will allow users to have access to TV channels on handheld devices while watching consistent high quality live broadcasting. It also gives a business owner the capability of conveniently uploading video advertising materials to different digital displays throughout a city (highway billboards, shopping mall displays, subway station terminals) all in one shot and targeted to different “time of day” audiences.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is centralized within our Office of Indigenous Relations.
