Program Summary:  An extensive effort is underway in 3G Partnership Project (3GPP) to develop a framework for the evolution of the 3G radio-access technology towards a high-data-rate, low latency, and packet-optimized radio access technology.  A number of advanced technologies are being considerred for the radio-interface long term evolution (LTE) beyond HSPA (High Speed Packet Access).  During the study item phase of LTE, a goal was set that LTE needs to achieve at least 3x better throughput and at least 2x cell edge data rate compared to HSDPA in order to become a viable new standard. MIMO and other multi-antenna technologies will therefore be an essential component of  the LTE standard in order for it to achieve this goal. In this talk, we provide an overview of
the MIMO radio-interface technology for LTE along with its impact on system performance improvements.

From 1991 – 1997 he was with Telkom SA, in their VSAT business development group, and from 2001 - 2003 he was with Metawave Communications, where he developed signal processing algorithms for smart antenna systems for CDMA2000. He has been employed at Samsung Telecommunications America for 4 years where he is doing research on MIMO and Smart Antennas for CDMA2000, WiMax and 3GPP LTE.
