Mitacs Globalink student studying train communications

The Mitacs Globalink program brings in top undergraduate students from around the world to UBC and Canada. One of the Globalink students, Madhuri Suthar, is working in Electrical and Computer Engineering Prof. Dave Michelson’s lab looking into the next generation in wireless communications for railways. She is researching why wireless signals are sometimes blocked or lost. Suthar believes that high-speed trains will become more and more popular due to the rising price of flying, and because they are faster and have no traffic issues. For more information, click here.
