Projects

Data Mining on Novels of Keigo Higashino
-Designed and programmed web crawler to collect related information for each novel in Quora, Douban and Zhihu.
-Utilized Baidu API and Jie-ba for Word Segmentation and word frequency count with python script.
-Applied the TF-IDF and LSI model to compare the similarity among the novels.
The Design of a High Speed and Inaudible Communication System
-Discovered and utilized the linearity of MEMS microphone to received ultrasound for communication.
-Used FDM modulation mechanism and dynamic gain control technology to implement the whole system on the mobile.
-Achieved the 16.24kHz transmission rate which is currently the highest speed for inaudible sound wave communication.
Study of Fake Base Station Forensics
-Designed a FBS forensics framework utilizing radio frequency (RF) fingerprints to solve the FBS forensics conundrum.
-Modeled the RF fingerprint from the tiny variance of the signal traces and construct features in 51 dimensions.
-Utilized popular machine learning algorithm for identification and choose SVM for the final implementation.
Study of Mobile Communication Systems Securities
-Employed OpenBTS and USRP, combined OsmocomBB open source projects, built a fake BTS system, designed an Android app to monitor fake BTS attack from a mobile.
-Used Android Studio to develop the monitoring program of the fake BTS system for cellphones.
-Simulated and tested fake BTS attacks to online-payment systems based on SMS 2FA, improving 2FA mechanism.
