Talks / Keynotes

Latest Advances in developing CDMA models

In recent years classical CDMA methods proposed in the early Nineties have been subjected to intensive research by specialists in wireless communications throughout the world. These researches resulted in the introduction of new CDMA techniques that might be thought of as the basis of further development of wireless multiuser communications. Unfortunately some latest advances in developing CDMA models are known only to a very limited number of specialists in the field. Our talk is aimed at filling this gap in. In our talk a brief overview of the current status of research on CDMA methods will be presented. Several latest advances, namely, the model of restricted asynchronous multiple access in the presence of errors proposed by L. A. Bassalygo, the random OFDMA model proposed by R. Nogueroles, M. Bossert and V. Zyablov and the multiple access model proposed by V. Zyablov and D. Osipov, will be considered in more detail.

Victor V. Zyablov Prof. Victor V. Zyablov was born in Kaluga, on July 1, 1937. He received the Dipl. Eng. degree from the Technical University of Moscow in 1961, Cand. Eng. degree from the Moscow Institute of Communication in 1968, and Dr. Sc. degree from the Council for Problem of Cybernetics, USSR Academy of Sciences, in 1979. From 1961 to 1964 he was an engineer in space industry and from 1964 a postgraduate student at Moscow Institute of Communication. Since 1968 he has been with the Institute for Problems of Information Transmission USSR Academy of Sciences in Moscow, first as a Junior Researcher, since 1973 as a Senior Researcher, and since 1981 as a Head of Laboratory. His main research interests are in communication system, coding theory and information theory. List of references of his paper about coding and communication include more then 200 titles, Four books were written by Zyablov about generalised concatenated codes (1976,1982,1991) and combination coding and modulation on a base generalised concatenated scheme (1991) has no analogue in world literature. Zyablov is the member of editorial board of the journal Problemy Peredachi Informatsii. He was the member of organizing committees 6 international symposiums on the information theory, more 10 international conferences and more 10 Russian conferences


Tutorials

OFDMA Radio Planning

This tutorial provides an overview of the most important issues that need to be taken into account during the radio design process of the OFDMA-based networks with LTE and WiMAX being the most prominent examples. We start by characterization of the OFDMA radio interface, putting special emphasis on its most important features and explaining their influence on the network performance. We outline the applicable propagation models and give special attention to the usage of MIMO. Then we review the radio network design process, by addressing the RF planning issues, link budget calculations and the co-channel interference challenges of the reuse one system scenario. Finally we outline the key methods for interference control and show how to estimate the capacity of the OFDMA radio network.

Dr. Slawomir Pietrzyk Dr. Slawomir Pietrzyk is the founder and CEO of Innovative Solutions, a consulting and development company supporting its clients in design and implementation of cutting-edge wireless access systems and specializing in OFDMA/MIMO-based radio interfaces (for more information please visit www.is-wireless.com). He is the author of the first book on OFDMA, entitled OFDMA for Broadband Wireless Access, published in 2006 by Artech House. Slawomir completed his Ph.D. degree in the area of wireless access systems at the Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands in 2005. He holds M.Sc. in telecommunications and postgraduate diplomma in management. Prior to Innovative Solutions, Dr. Pietrzyk worked for PTC (a T-Mobile daughter company) and Ubiquitous Communication Program at the Delft University of Technology. He is a professional instructor delivering technical courses in the area of LTE, WiMAX, OFDM, OFDMA, SC-FDMA and MIMO. Dr. Pietrzyk is the author of several papers on communication technologies and a reviewer for IEEE journals and conferences including Transactions on Communications, Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, ICC, Globecom and VTC.
