Lin Cai is a Chinese-Canadian telecommunications engineer known for her work on topology control in wireless networks [1] [2] and in the applications of wireless communications to self-driving cars. [3] She was educated at the University of Waterloo and is a professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of Victoria. [4]
Cai should be distinguished from a younger wireless networking engineer, also an alumna of the University of Waterloo named Lin Cai, who is a member of the faculty at the Illinois Institute of Technology. The younger Cai publishes as "Lin X. Cai", and has coauthored research with Lin Cai. [5]
Cai has a bachelor's degree from the Nanjing University of Science and Technology. [4] She completed her Ph.D. at the University of Waterloo in 2005, and in the same year joined the University of Victoria faculty. [6]
Cai became an E. W. R. Steacie Memorial Fellow of the Canadian Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council in 2019. [2] She was named an IEEE Fellow in 2020, affiliated with the IEEE Vehicular Technology Society, "for contributions to topology control of wireless networks". [7] She was elected to the College of New Scholars of the Royal Society of Canada in 2020. [1]
