The School of Electronics and Computer Science cordially invites staff and PGR students across the University to attend a talk by Professor Arogyaswami Joseph Paulraj who will be discussing “Key Ideas in Mobile Wireless Technology”.
The event will be held on Highfield Campus, in building 100, Lecture Theatre A (room 1001) on 6 June 2024 at 17:00-18:00. Following the talk, a drinks reception will be held outside the Lecture Theatre from 18:00 until 18:30.
This talk offers a retrospective view of mobile wireless technology spanning the past four decades. The wireless research community generated many ideas, but only a few have been incorporated into mobile standards, and even less have been enabled in deployed networks. The talk outlines some of the complex trade-offs that determined what technologies got in and what did not.
Professor Paulraj is an Emeritus Professor at Stanford University and he pioneered MIMO (Multiple Input, Multiple Output) wireless technology. Professor Paulraj served for 25 years with the Indian Navy, prematurely retiring in 1991 to join Stanford University as a Research Associate.
He founded Iospan Wireless Inc., which pioneered MIMO-OFDMA wireless technology, and co-founded Beceem Communications Inc., a leader in 4G-WiMAX chip sets.
