14. Brief description of main areas of professional/scholarly activity (technical and research interests, offices held in professional and technical organizations, participation on technical standards development committees, etc.).
The research group that I have been supervising has been working on the physical (PHY) layer research problems of Ultra-Wideband (UWB) Communications since September 2003. The research group has so far contributed to the UWB communications area by proposing new signalling formats for both high-rate and low-rate communications and by addressing the related research issues including the performance analysis in realistic channels, channel characterization, coexistence and spectrum compliance.
As a result of our high-rate UWB communications research, we have filed a US patent application for our newly proposed signalling scheme.
The low-rate UWB communications research has generated two main contributions, namely an international contribution to the standardization process of IEEE 802.15.4a and a national contribution in terms of collaboration with a local company (Verichip).
15. Industrial and related experience.
July 1997 - June 1998
Consultant, SAMSUNG Electronics Co. Ltd., Institute of Information and Communication.
Has been involved in ‘3rd-generation wideband CDMA (WCDMA)’ standardization activities together with researchers at the Institute and provided consulting for them to prepare a preliminary SAMSUNG proposal for the IMT-2000 PHY standard meeting, organized by ARIB in Japan and EDGE in Europe.
March 1993 - December 1998
Invited Lecturer, SAMSUNG Electronics Co. Ltd., Advanced Technology Center.
Has developed three new courses on ‘Wireless and Mobile Communications’ at the Center for practical training purpose: 1) Digital Mobile Communications, 2) Digital Spread Spectrum Communications, 3) Wireless Personal
Communications, while teaching from 1993 up to 1998. The purpose is to provide the researchers with basic understanding and development skills for ‘CDMA-based Cellular System Test bed’.
