THE CENTER FOR COMMUNICATIONS AND SIGNAL PROCESSING RESEARCH and THE NORTH JERSEY CHAPTER OF THE IEEE COMMUNICATIONS SOCIETY present a talk on SPREAD SPECTRUM TECHNOLOGY by FRANK GUTLEBER WHEN: Monday, April 22, 1996, 11:30 a.m. (refreshments at 11:15) WHERE: Room 202, Electrical and Computer Engineering Center New Jersey Institute of Technology PRESENTATION OUTLINE 1. Pseudo-Noise (PN) Codes - Definition and available codes - Ideal PN code structure (Lobeless Pulse Compression) 2. Maximal Length Sequence (MLS) or Direct Sequence Codes - Their properties, theory, generation and detection - Advantages/disadvantages, e.g., correlation properties, near/far problem, available quantity, use of long codes, etc. 3. Multiplexed Noise (MN) Codes - Their properties, theory, generation and detection - Advantages/disadvantages, e.g., correlation properties, orthogonal sets, available quantity, lobeless pulse compression, etc. 4. Applications for MN Codes - Broad applications - Orthogonal CDMA/switching (maximum capacity) - Network synchronization (Loop Back Technique) - Interference canceling (self and external), provides unlimited capacity 5. Test Results (Laboratory) - Autocorrelation/cross-correlation function measurements - Simulated orthogonal CDMA/switching measurements - Interference canceling measurements 6. Questions BIOGRAPHY Mr. Gutleber received his Bachelor and Master of Science (cum laude) degrees in Electrical Engineering from the New Jersey Institute of Technology. He was employed by ITT Laboratories and Lockheed Electronics from 1952 to 1968. At ITT he was engaged in applied research in communication sciences and in design, development, and study projects in missile guidance, radar, electronic warfare, satellite communications, multiple access systems, transmission systems, and advanced modulation and coding techniques; and at Lockheed he was responsible for research projects in the areas of radar, instrument landing systems, fire control systems, and coding. From 1968 until 1993, he worked at the Army Electronics Command, the Joint Tactical Communications Office (TRI-TAC) and JTC3A. While employed by the government, Mr. Gutleber completed numerous studies in all areas of tactical communications. Since 1993, he has been a consultant to Hillier Technologies, which secured the exclusive rights to many of his patents. Mr. Gutleber has authored more than 200 technical reports and has 113 issued patents in communications science technology, which taken collectively could provide optimum solutions for numerous applications involving signal processing and transmission systems. He is a member of Eta Kappa Nu (Electrical Engineering Honorary Society), received the Secretary of the Army's Research and Study Fellowship (1981), and was the recipient of the New Jersey Inventors Congress and Hall of Fame Inventor of the Year award (1989).
