Charlie Jianzhong Zhang [S’96, M’02, SM’09]:
Dr. Charlie (Jianzhong) Zhang is a standards
Director with the Samsung Dallas Technology Lab, where he leads the 3GPP
LTE/LTE-A standard project as well as a task force focusing on new biomedical
devices and applications. He is currently serving as the Vice Chairman (first
elected Aug 09, re-elected Aug 11) of 3GPP RAN1, the physical layer working
group for radio access network. Before he joined Samsung, he was with
Motorola from 2006 to 2007 where he worked on the 3GPP HSPA standardization;
and he was with Nokia Research Center from 2001 to 2006 where he worked on
IEEE 802.16e (WiMAX) standard and EDGE/CDMA/HSPA
receiver algorithms. Dr Zhang received his Ph. D.
degree in Electrical Engineering from University of Wisconsin at Madison, and
is a senior member of IEEE. He is currently serving as the Standards
subcommittee chair of the Industry DSP applications committee of the IEEE
signal processing society. o
Halim Yanikomeroglu: Dr. Yanikomeroglu is a Professor at the Department of Systems
and Computer Engineering at Carleton University, Ottawa, Canada. Dr. Yanikomeroglu’s research interests cover many aspects of
the physical, medium access, and networking layers of wireless communications
with a special emphasis on cellular networks. In recent years, Dr. Yanikomeroglu’s research has been funded by Huawei
(Canada and China), Research In Motion (Canada),
Samsung (Korea), Communications Research Centre of Canada, Nortel, and NSERC
(Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada). Dr. Yanikomeroglu is a member of the Steering Committee of
the IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference (WCNC), and has
been involved in the organization of this conference over the years,
including serving as the Technical Program Chair/Co-Chair of WCNC 2004, 2008,
and 2014. Dr. Yanikomeroglu was the General Co-Chair of the IEEE
Vehicular Technology Conference Fall 2010 held in Ottawa (VTC2010-Fall). Dr. Yanikomeroglu has served in the editorial boards of the
IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, IEEE Transactions on
Communications, and IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials. He is a
former chair of IEEE's Technical Committee on Personal Communications (now
called Wireless Communications Technical Committee). ·
Technical Program
Chairs o
Huseyin Arslan: Dr. Huseyin Arslan has received his
PhD. degree in 1998 from Southern Methodist University (SMU), Dallas, TX. From January 1998
to August 2002, he
was with the research group of Ericsson Inc., NC,
USA, where he was involved with several project
related to 2G and 3G wireless
cellular communication systems. Since August 2002, he has been with the
Electrical Engineering Dept. of University of South Florida. In addition, he has worked as part time
consultant for various companies and institutions including Anritsu,
Scientific & Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK), Lecroy, and XG technologies. Dr. Arslan’s
research interests are
related to advanced signal
processing techniques at
the physical and medium access layers, with cross-layer design
for networking adaptivity and Quality of Service (QoS)
control. The current research interests are
on cognitive radio,
femtocells, powerline communications, smart
Grid, UWB, OFDM(A) based
wireless technologies with emphasis on WIMAX and IMT-Advanced, TV-White space
radio, co-existence issues
on heterogeneous networks with
emphasis on unlicensed bands,
aeronautical (High Altitude Platform) communications, and
underwater acoustic
communications. He is a member
of the editorial board for
IEEE Transactions on Communications, Wireless
Communication and Mobile Computing
Journal, and Journal
of Electrical and Computer Engineering by Hindawi
Publishing Corporation. Dr. Arslan is
a senior member of IEEE. o
Lingjia Liu [S’03-M’08]: Dr. Liu
received his B.S. degree in Electronic Engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong
University, Shanghai, China in 2003 and Ph.D. degree in Electrical
Engineering from Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas, in 2008.
Currently, He is an Assistant Professor in the Electrical Engineering and
Computer Science Department at the University of Kansas (KU). Prior to
joining the EECS at KU, he spent more than three years in the Dallas Technology
Laboratory of Samsung Electronics where he received the Global Samsung Best
Paper Award twice (in 2008 and 2010 respectively). He was leading Samsung’s
efforts on multiuser MIMO, coordinated multipoint (CoMP)
transmission, and heterogeneous networks in LTE/LTE-Advanced standards. His
general research interests lie in the areas of wireless communication
systems, statistical signal processing, queueing
theory, and information theory, with emphasis on delay-sensitive and
energy-efficient communication over wireless systems and networks. Lingjia Liu is currently serving as an Associate Editor
for the EURASIP Journal on Wireless Communications and Networking as well as
Wiley's International Journal on Communication Systems. He is co-editor of
special issues of several journals. He has been selected by the National
Engineers Week Foundation Diversity Council as “New Faces of Engineering
2011”. o
Tommy Svensson: Dr. Svensson is Associate Professor in Communication Systems
at Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden. He has participated
in the EU FP6 WINNER and WINNER II projects, which contributed substantially
to 3GPP LTE development, the CELTIC WINNER+ project and the recently
completed EU FP7 ARTIST4G project focusing on LTE-Advanced evolution, and the
just started EU FP7 METIS project targeting solutions for the year 2020. He
is also the initiator of a Swedish-Chinese project on IMT-Advanced and Beyond
and involved in a national academic collaboration project on future wireless
access. His main expertise is in design and analysis of physical layer
algorithms, multiple access schemes, coordinated multipoint schemes, as well
as moving relays for wireless access and wireless backhaul networks, but he
also has industrial experience of higher layer design for wireless
communication systems. He has co-authored two books and more than 70 journal
and conference papers. He is a Senior Member of the IEEE, chairman of the
