This talk will provide an overview of distributed coherent communication systems and then discuss highlights of some selected recent results in this area. Distributed coherent communication systems (also called "virtual antenna arrays" or "distributed MIMO") extend the well-known advantages of antenna arrays to networks of single-antenna devices by closely coordinating the transmissions of the individual devices and pooling their antenna resources. There are additional challenges in realizing the gains of distributed coherent transmission, however, including accounting for independent oscillator dynamics and potentially independent kinematics at each node in the system. These impairments establish fundamental limits on the gains that can be achieved in distributed coherent communication systems. This talk will discuss these challenges and then provide highlights on two topics: (i) channel state tracking and performance characterization of large-scale distributed MIMO communication systems and (ii) asymptotic performance analysis of large-scale distributed reception in the low per-node SNR regime.

Biography:

Dr. D. Richard Brown III is currently a Program Director at the National Science Foundation in the Computing and Communications Foundations (CCF) division of the Directorate for Computer & Information Science & Engineering (CISE). He is currently on leave from his appointment as Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, where he has been a faculty member since 2000. He received a PhD in Electrical Engineering from Cornell University in 2000 and MS and BS degrees in Electrical Engineering from The University of Connecticut in 1996 and 1992, respectively. From 1992-1997, he was a design engineer at General Electric Electrical Distribution and Control in Plainville, Connecticut. From August 2007 to June 2008, he held an appointment as a Visiting Associate Professor at Princeton University. He is also currently serving as an Associate Editor for IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications.
