Professor Kainam Thomas Wong has been elected a fellow to the Acoustical Society of America (ASA) for his notable contributions to signal processing for acoustic vector-sensor arrays.

Professor Kainam Thomas Wong is a full-time professor and supervisor of master's candidates at the School of General Engineering, Beihang University. He obtained his Ph.D. degree from Purdue University and has served successively in Nanyang Technological University, the Chinese University of Hong Kong, the University of Waterloo, and the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Professor Wong is a member of the editorial board of many famous SCI journals such as Circuits, Systems and Signal Processing, IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, and IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems. Besides, he is also a fellow of the Institution of Engineering and Technology. He has long been dedicated to signal processing in electromagnetism and acoustics.

Founded in 1929, the Acoustical Society of America (ASA) is the world’s premier scientific society devoted to acoustics with 7,500 members in the world. In 1931, the ASA joined with three other academic societies to form the American Institute of Physics (AIP), a leading publisher in the physical sciences. Published by the ASA, the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering all aspects of acoustics, including Linear and Nonlinear Acoustics, Atmospheric Acoustics and Aeroacoustics, Underwater Sound, Ultrasonics and Physical Acoustics, Architectural Acoustics, Structural Acoustics and Vibration, etc.
