ABSTRACT:
In this talk we will discuss adaptive antenna arrays for cellular communication systems and describe their use for increasing range and traffic capacity, improving voice quality, and providing for high data rates (up to Mbps). Applications of antenna arrays in the North American Digital Mobile Radio  TDMA system IS-136, with evolution to the EDGE system will be emphasized, including the use of these techniques for a MIMO EDGE system using multiple transmit/receive antennas to provide in excess of 1 Mbps in a 200 kHz channel.

BIOGRAPHY:
Jack H. Winters received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from The  Ohio State University, Columbus, in 1981. Since 1981 he has been with  AT&T Bell Laboratories, and now AT&T Labs-Research, where he holds the
position of Technology Leader in the Wireless Systems Research Department, studying adaptive arrays and equalization for wireless communication systems. Dr. Winters is a Fellow of the IEEE.
