Lin X. Cai

Lin X. Cai is a telecommunications engineer whose research interests include energy harvesting as a way of powering wireless sensor networks for the internet of things.[1] Educated in Canada, she works in the US as a professor of electrical and computer engineering at the Illinois Institute of Technology.[2]

Cai studied electrical and computer engineering at the University of Waterloo, receiving a master's degree in 2005 and a Ph.D. in 2010.[3] After completing her doctorate, under the supervision of Xuemin (Sherman) Shen, she continued to work with Shen as an NSERC Postdoctoral Fellow.[4] She was named to the 2026 class of IEEE Fellows "for contributions to sustainable wireless communication and networking".[5]

She should be distinguished from her coauthor Lin Cai of the University of Victoria, also a telecommunications engineer, student of Shen at Waterloo, and IEEE Fellow.[4]
