Biography

Dayong (Da_Yong) Zhou grew up in Jianshu Province, China. He received his B.S. Degree in Electro-Mechanical Engineering from the University of Electronics Science & Technology of China (UESTC) in July, 1995 and along with a minor in Applied Electronics. From September 1995 to August 1998, he worked as a Design Engineer and group leader in an institute of Shanghai Aerospace General Corporation. Then he worked as a Field Application Engineer at Perkin Elmer Company Shanghai office. Since August 1999, he has pursued his graduate education in the University of Oklahoma. He received his M.S. and Ph.D degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Oklahoma, Norman, OK, in 2001 and 2005 respectively under the supervision and guidance of Prof. Victor DeBrunner.

His current research interests include signal processing for digital signal processing, intelligent vehicle and bridge system (IVBS), system identification, nonlinear signal processing, noise and vibration mitigation and structure health monitoring. Through his research and 5 years of work in the industry, he also gained practical experience on real-time DSP programming (TI C67xx), FPGA design, high speed digital I/O systems, and control and DSP algorithms implementation.

Research Areas
