Biography:

 18 years of working experience in specifying, designing and implementing wireless transceivers, mostly for mobile communication applications in 2G, 3G and 4G systems.
 Have been through eight different product design cycles, from whiteboard drawings to release for manufacturing and field deployment.
 Good understanding of LTE, CDMA, WCDMA and GSM standard requirements and how they translate into hardware architecture and component specifications.
 Working closely with algorithm developers, digital and RF hardware designers and software engineers to successfully integrate all the pieces into a complex radio transceiver system.
 Up-to-date knowledge of radio transceiver design, including high-speed DACs and ADCs, RF and IF circuits, PLL synthesizers, Mixers, timing and clock generation.
 Good understanding of digital communications and signal processing concepts.
 System-level and behaviour simulation using Agilent ADS software.
 Hardware design and firmware development using Texas Instruments and Analog Devices fixed-point DSPs (not up to date).
 Experience designing with micro-controllers, specifically PIC series from Microchip, both in hardware and firmware (not up to date).
 Timing and clock synchronization circuit and firmware using GPS receivers (not up to date).
