The Kitchener-Waterloo (KW) Section of the Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers will play host to Dr. Gordon L. Stüber of
the Georgia Institute of Technology, USA. In an event hosted at the University
of Waterloo (200 University Avenue West, Waterloo, ON N2L 3G1, Canada) a
geometrical theory for depolarization in narrow-band fixed-to-mobile and
mobile-to-mobile wireless channels will be presented. The event will be
Tuesday, October 18th from 10:30am until 12:00pm at the University
of Waterloo, Centre for Environmental and Information Technology, Room 3142.
This novel theory is used to reveal the origin of channel
depolarization and to provide a mechanism for computing cross-polarization
discrimination (XPD). This purely theoretical approach is used to derive the
XPD without the aid of measurement data or its approximation.
An alumnus, Dr. Stüber received the B.A.Sc. and Ph.D.
degrees in Electrical Engineering from the University of Waterloo in 1982 and
1986 respectively. Beginning in 1986, he joined the School of Electrical and
Computer Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, GA
where he currently holds the Joseph M. Pettit Chair in Communications.
Dr. Stüber’s recognition for his works include:
1997 Jack Neubauer Memorial Award for best systems paper;
IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology.
1999 Named and IEEE Fellow for contributions to mobile radio
and spread spectrum communications.
2003 IEEE VTS James R. Evans Avant Garde Award for
contributions to theoretical research in wireless communications.
2007 IEEE Communications Society Wireless Communications
Technical Committee Recognition Award for outstanding technical contributions
in the field and for service to the scientific and engineering communities.
