Gary W. Elko
“for contributions to microphone array signal processing for
communication systems.”

Gary
W. Elko was born in 1955 in Philadelphia Pennsylvania. He graduated from Cornell University with a
BSEE degree in 1977. He then followed
his interests in acoustics and signal processing and received an MS and PhD
from Penn State University in 1984. After
graduation, he joined the Acoustics Research Department at AT&T Bell
Laboratories where he worked on electroacoustic systems and signal processing
for hands-free audio communication and room acoustics. He is currently president of mh acoustic LLC,
a company he founded with former Bell Labs colleagues in Summit NJ. He has over 20 patents and applications and
has published more than 60 papers in refereed journals. He is a past associate editor of the IEEE
transactions on Acoustics Speech and Signal Processing and is a Fellow of the
Acoustical Society of America.
On
Thursday, April 19, 2007, the North Jersey Chapters of the IEEE Communications
Society and Signal Processing Society will host a presentation titled “The
Trend of Next Generation Wireless Mobile Systems” by Dr. Qi Bi.
About the Talk
With
the deployment of 3G high speed packet data wireless mobile systems worldwide,
the stage has been set to evolve 3G wireless systems to the next
generation. From this point forward, the
efforts are focused on the delivery of the broadband experience with integrated
and blended service. In this talk, we
shall share our view of where the industry is going and what wireless
experience an average user may expect to have in the near future. Our analysis will cover three major
industrial standards including CDMA, wCDMA and WiMAX.
About the
Speaker
Dr.
Bi received his MS from Shanghai Jiao Tong University and PhD from Pennsylvania
State University. After teaching at Utah
State University as an assistant professor for one year, he joined Bell
Laboratories in 1988 and became a Distinguished Member of Technical Staff in
1995. Two years later, he was promoted
to Technical Manager.
Dr.
Bi is a recognized expert in wireless communications. He received Awards of Excellence from the
Advanced Technology Lab of AT&T in 1996 and 1997, and Bell Labs President’s
Gold Awards in 2000 and 2002. Under his
leadership, his team was recognized in innovations and was awarded the Bell
Labs Innovation Team Award in 2003 by the Bell Labs Research. In 2004, he received the Speaker of the Year
Award from the IEEE New Jersey Coast Section.
Based
on his pioneering contributions in wireless communications, he broke ground in
2003 to become the first Chinese from the People’s Republic of
