On Scaling Wireless Capacity
Date &Time: Tuesday morning, January 17, 201
Abstract
The need for massive scaling of wireless capacity in mobile networks (say BPS/Sq. Km.)is obvious. There are many leverages for scaling that can come from adding bandwidth, multiple antennas, coding-decoding, relays, cooperation, interference management, scheduling, aggregation, time shifting, cell splitting, compute partitioning, spectrum management, etc. This talk will pick on some of these areas and discuss their potential scaling capacity value and associated implementation hurdles.
Speaker
Arogyaswami Paulraj is a Professor Emeritus at Stanford University and Sr. Advisor at Broadcom Corp.
Paulraj is the pioneer of MIMO wireless communications, a technology break through that enables improved wireless performance. MIMO is now incorporated into all new wireless systems.
Paulraj has received several awards in the US, notably the IEEE Alexander Graham Bell Medal. He is a fellow of seven scientific academies including the US National Academy of Engineering and the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences. He is a fellow of IEEE and AAAS.
In 1999, Paulraj founded Iospan Wireless Inc – which developed the first MIMO-OFDMA wireless system. Iospan was acquired in by Intel Corporation in 2003. He was in 2004, Paulraj co-founded Beceem Communications Inc and the company was acquired by Broadcom Corp. in 2010.
During his 30 years in the India, he founded three national level laboratories and headed one of India’s most successful defense R&D projects – APSOH sonar. His many awards in India include the Padma Bhushan, the second highest national award.
