He is an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and the Chinese Academy of Engineering (CAE). He is one of the founders of China's SPC switching system and pioneer of China's intelligent network (IN).[1]
Chen was born in Yinzhou District, Ningbo, Zhejiang, on October 10, 1933, during the Republic of China. His father was a small merchant.[2] When the Marco Polo Bridge Incident broke out, his family moved to Shanghai.[3] He elementary studied at a missionary school.[2] In September 1951 he was accepted to Shanghai Jiao Tong University, majoring in the Telecommunication Department, where he graduated in July 1955.[2] He worked briefly at Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications. After a year of studying at Beijing Russian Institute (now Beijing Foreign Studies University), he entered the Moscow Institute of Telecommunication Engineering, where he graduated in June 1961.[2] He returned to China in 1961 and joined the faculty of Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications. He was a visiting scholar at the University of California, Berkeley and University of California, Los Angeles between December 1978 and February 1981.[2] He is one of the first 50 Chinese scholars to visit the United States after the Chinese economic reform.[3] He was president of China Institute of Communications (CIC).[4]

At the beginning of 1967, he took part in the research and development of Dong Fang Hong I space satellite, heading the wireless data transportation system, which won him the National Science Congress Award in 1978.[1] In the 1980s, he participated in the development of DS-2000 SPC digital switching system in the 6th Five-year Plan and the DS-30 SPC digital switching system in the 7th Five-year Plan.[1] In the 1990s, he was engaged in the network intelligence research and developed China's first IN system.[1]
