Pedram Mousavi - Pioneering Research on Low-Cost/Complexity Phased-Array at Waterloo

Abstract

Prof. Pedram Mousavi has been one of my closest and dearest friends and colleagues for more than 20 years. Extremely bright, highly innovative, very hardworking, a real problem solver, unbelievably positive, and above all a sincere and dependable friend. Mix all these with an amazing sense of humor, and then you have Pedram! In this talk I want to focus on Pedram's pioneering work on low-cost/complexity phased-array technologies and his significant contributions to commercial intelligent antenna technologies. Pedram's research work had substantial impact on the current extensive research programs on modular active phased-array system architecture at the University of Waterloo Centre for Intelligent Antenna and Radio Systems.
